Michael Dawson has told Tottenham it is vital to keep Gareth Bale if they have serious designs on joining Europe's elite.
Dawson, meanwhile, has himself emerged as a key figure in Tottenham's challenge for honours after turning down the chance to join QPR last summer. And the centre-half is targeting a return to the England set-up almost two years after his most recent cap. He said: "It would be a dream. I got asked this question when I first got back in to the Spurs team. Then, I just had to concentrate on staying in the Tottenham team. "Now I'm playing regularly for Tottenham...fingers crossed. It would be nice to get that England call-up."
