Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp has heaped praise upon Gareth Bale following his side's 3-1 win over Swansea City this afternoon.

The Welshman was named man-of-the-match as Spurs moved level on points with north London rivals Arsenal in the chase for third place.

"He's just an amazing talent. He's an amazing player," Redknapp told Sky Sports.

"He's got the ability to run all day, to beat people, to dribble, to shoot, to head it - he can do everything. He's a unique player really, he's a special talent.

"But everybody was on their game today. I thought we defended well. We got good blocks in, the two centre halves. I thought the midfield people all closed down and pressed well."

Bale has been linked with a move to La Liga and recently hinted that the move would be difficult to turn down.
