AVB: Bale on upward curve

Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas sent a warning to other Barclays Premier League clubs that winger Gareth Bale can only continue improving after the Welshman scored a fantastic double to seal a 3-2 win over West Ham.

Bale opened the scoring with a low, driven finish before securing a dramatic win for Spurs with a stunning goal in the final moments of last night’s game.
