Jose Mourinho has been told how to get the best out of Gareth Bale at Tottenham by Jermaine Jenas, who says the Welshman "needs to be loved".
Bale has struggled for form and fitness since returning to Spurs on loan from Real Madrid in September, with Mourinho still looking for the best way to utilise the talents of a man once considered to be among the best players of his generation.
The Welshman has only recently started to prove he can still deliver the goods in the final third, with Jenas noting that his ex-team-mate tends to thrive when his manager puts an arm around him.
