Saha inclusion warmly welcomed by Tottenham's Bale

Tottenham ace Gareth Bale believes the arrival of Louis Saha will assist the club greatly in their quest for this season's Premier League title.

The French veteran scored twice on his home debut for Spurs in their 5-0 win over Newcastle United on Saturday and his inclusion is one that Bale and his teammates are absolutely delighted with.

"He played fantastic. We all know what he's capable of, we've played against him year after year," Bale told Spurs TV Online.

"He's always been a threat against us and to have him on our team now is a real boost. He's a quality player, scored two goals and thoroughly deserved them.

"He's shown in training already that he's a world class player, he's played at the highest level and we're delighted to have him."
