With these three there are so many possibilities. Not only can Bale and Son go left or right but Harry can drop deeper very effectively to let the other two play closer. Of course Bale can also play left back if need be:sneaky:
Or Kane as a 10 behind Venicius in certain matches or for the last 20 minutes; Son on the left, Bale on the right. Pace, power, vision and 4 players who can score a goal at any moment.

Seriously, I can't wait for this front 3 to be unleashed. I don't think any defence in the league will know how to cope with it.

I’m not getting carried away until I see Bale running at full pelt for more than 2 mins.

Bale has noticeably lost a half a step of pace and is nowhere near the athletic powerhouse he was in 2016-2017. I think we’ll have to be patient with him and I’m not so sure he’s a beast of a forward anymore, he’s more of a fast, clever left footer with an excellent final ball and intelligence.

Time will tell but he’s not the left footed Son, and I worry about him tracking back too. Hope he kills it obviously but there are some concerns there, he hasn’t played football consistently in a year and a half basically.

We can see these three in November. Bale still needs to adapt to Jose's tactic.

Especially with the ability to go infield when Regulion and Aurier are wide.

Our fullbacks are already a handful for defenses without even considering that cheat-code front three.

Who the fuck would they mark? Man Utd couldn't even handle Lamela standing still as Son waltzed through their back line.

Simply on ball-striking technique alone, there isn’t a frontline as efficient as these three. Their threat from distance will be key in breaking through dogged, deep defensive lines. And for teams who play with high lines, the speed and movement of Son and Bale, combined with the vision and passing range of Kane, will be deadly. A true trident.

I’m not usually hyperbolic, and often try to temper expectations, but I honestly believe we have the makings of an incredible attacking force.

This is what excites me - if defences push up we can exploit them with pace in behind. Bale isn’t as quick as he was, but he can still out-pace most centre backs. If defences sit deep then Son, Kane and Bale can all strike a ball from 25 yards which leaves the keeper no chance.

If as we are hoping its a dream front three I am expecting an increase in suicides maybe Evra / Tyler / Neville / in any case the sky people are going to have to look for new blood which would be better than the lopsided coverage which spends its time metaphorically licking the Man Unt arsehole .
