I'm happy you mentioned the 13 million views, cause indeed I've been watching EVERY one of them since I discovered this bloke filming the building of the stadium 😂. Also watched or listened to every Gold and Guest, without exception. Well those 13 million views are totally deserved as you are simply the best Spurs journalist around ! Thank you Alasdair 👍👏👏👏👏👏
I think with bergvall, we should be patient. Let's not make the same mistake Chelsea made with De Bruyne. Knee jerk reactions are everywhere in football nowadays. COYS
@@AlasdairGoldjournalist not only that but he missed so many big chances. So you know he is getting in the right areas and he has really good tools at the club to help his finishing to improve.
@@Dah230what tools. He’s mid at finishing. Poor at dribbling for a winger. He’s not strong. He’s not intelligent. His crossing is average. He just has pace. What are you talking about when you say he has the tools. He just dosent it’s okay to be real about our team dosent make you negative just open your eyes.
@@AlasdairGoldjournalistdo we measure a player by goal involvements only. I’m not saying he’s been terrible but this is his level. He doesn’t have the ability to be a starting winger that we need why can’t you be honest. Or if you truly believe he has the potential then I don’t know what you’re wathcing. He can’t beat a player consistently. You don’t just learn that at this age. His not a quality finisher or passer. He just has pace. Why are you settling for average please answer honestly. He is simply not that good and that’s okay so stop justifying his mediocre performances but telling us a about ga. We have eyes.
Thank you, Ali. I can’t wait for Ange ball. I thought the Euros and Copa would fill the void but no. I want Spurs. Johnson will be devastating next season.
Big up Ali ! I’m also so excited for Archie Gray . I think he’s playing them out of position because he wants them to see perspective from all positions in his tactics . Congrats on 300+. That’s serious dedication and discipline. Hat 🎩 off to you sir 🫡
Thank you for giving up a part of your Saturdays for us! Very exciting to hear about the youngsters. I wish we could watch that behind-closed-doors match. Good to hear about Sonny's brace and Johnson's hat-trick, as well.
Yup, me too. Saw that clean shaven young man filming the new stadium as it progressed and immediately subscribed. Still haven’t seen inside personally, my last UK visit was June 2019 so just a walk around the outside and some pics. Ali has since become my go to guy for Spurs news, excellent reporting. One slight personal peeve, I preferred the shorter 20/30 minute videos rather than the hour plus but I’m nitpicking. Great job Ali.
Thanks, Ali! Always appreciate your take, the delivery, the passion and of course the banter with Guesty on the pod. Tipping a pint to you both from across the pond, #COYS!
Appreciate the update, Ali. Great to hear Sonny's well-rested and in good form. We've just got to be smart about his minutes this season and not burn him out. We still need several more quality signings... preferably not last-minute and with enough time to integrate
Ali, when I try to visualise large masses of people, I do it via imagining stadiums full of 60,000. A stadium full of subscribers is a lot, congratulations, and you deserve many more 🎉
Thanks, Alasdair! Enjoyed hearing about the talented young players. Looking forward to seeing them develop. Wishing Troy Parrott all the best. Also, hoping Dele will be able to resurrect his career.
Can't stand the Twitter accounts pushing for all these young players to be put into the first team. They compare the Spurs lads with Yamal It is such a bogus comparison. Leave them to mature at their own speed.
Congrats on 60k, Ali. So well deserved. Lolo was in the team last night and even scored, so at least his semi-final injury was not that bad. The guy's having a nightmare summer anyway 😬
Not sure whether or not I’ve commented before but felt the need to express how much these videos mean - to know that you can carve out an hour and disappear into a level-headed and insightful land of spurs is a real lifeline at times. Yes, there is a lot of content out there, but the clickbait / sensationalist style on YT often leaves me feeling uneasy and stressed. This, The Extra Inch pod and The Fighting Cock are all I need :) A very sincere Thank you Ali. COYS
Thanks for another entertaining video Ali. I, like many, have been watching your vids for what seems like a lifetime but in reality is only a couple of years 😁. The way I look at it, is that those hours of information from you were so useful, however, I shall never get those hours back ..... but as they often say, hey-ho😁 Seriously, I'm a big fan - thank you. I also wish Dele all the luck in getting back to somewhere near his old form. Thanks again Ali.
Always enjoy your videos and positive outlook. Looking forward to your reporting of the pre-season tours and games as I thought the last couple of years those videos/reports were always really insightful. Keep up the great work
Love the sartorial elegance of the top. Not that I would ever knock the tees you wore before 😮 Looking forward to black tie outfit 😂😂😂😂 But interesting report and as always compulsive viewing
U know what good luck to dele. I have so much respect for the lad I really wish he was still at spurs. I would give him a free years deal with us. Many young talents have signed for spurs like bale and Walker but one that lives up in my spurs life is dele. He was a young hot shot but his whole image and spurs career sits well with me. Top lad and pray he comes back to that level. ❤❤❤❤ good luck dele x
Just looked back at your video history - been here since pre blue wall where bale rejoined by the looks of it 😎 3yrs+ watching just about every video wow. The beard maybe getting slightly more grey through the thumbnails 😅 We all owe you a big thank you for your commitment as the videos really do help with the sanity of supporting spurs!
Good news for Troy Parrot and Dele Alli as for Gray playing RB I was kind of hoping he'd be replacing Bissouma not back up for Porro. As for our U-21's and who is going out on loan I'd like to think at least one of them would end up at Birmingham City, wherever they go however I hope they get guaranteed minutes, I do hope they'll keep Dane Scarlett around. As for Bentancur you got to think he turns his brain off when he get's back to Uruguay, first the comments about Sonny and now this I'm curious to know if the Uruguay FA are going to turn around and sue the stadium for not providing adequate security. Thanks for the update, glad you're back to enjoying life again reporting on real football games, take care of yourself and enjoy.
Watched this before the start of the England match. Buzzing for the start of the new season and for the remaining part of the transfer window ahead. Cheers Ali! Congratulations on 60k!
Congratulations on the subs and views - been a fan of your coverage at least since 2016/2017 but maybe earlier and have read and watched many of your publications. Thanks as always and long may it continue! COYS!
Thanks for the latest video Alasdair. Watching a football match whatever next😁! And writing about two matches at once - no trouble for a man of your talents and fully deserving of 60K subscribers. Good luck to Troy Parrott at AZ. It is a real shame he never got much of a chance at Spurs especially as there have been a long succession of expensive flops who were brought into the team from abroad and did almost nothing. At least Spurs brought in a new offensive player before he left - oh wait, perhaps I have got that wrong😉! As you did not mention anything, I assume the rumours on some other sites of Mikey Moore being pursued by big European clubs are just false news?
Thanks Ali for another very informative update. Many Years ago the club used to do a members day for Junior spurs, where young members got to meet the players and attend coachning session given by some players. Have fond memories of Espen Baardsen carrying my youngest son from the coachng sessions to meet the players. Both my boys went to several, met Loads of players and got loads of autographs and many happy and found memories. This was a while back, think the last one they went to was aroudn 2002, these events used to be held at the Tesco Sports Ground in Cheshunt.
I agree with Gray. He is young but has a year under his belt in the championship competing for promotion. He's bossed the Chelsea midfield, so I expect he is ready from day 1. Bergvall will take more time. Mikey Moore is a project player. Is he a Yamal or does he need time? I always think of Wenger who has said that blooding youg players too early can lead to injury risks eg Sess. However, thankfully the days of the destroyers is largely over but would not play Moore against a Matty Cash team for a few years.
I used to listen from the time you did the stadium walks too. Enjoyed watching that process and now always look forward to these videos for the great content. I also enjoy watching you dig yourself holes when you think you've said something weird 😂
So Ali, when are we actually going to go and buy some top players? I mean players who change games. Euros is over so that excuse won't fly anymore. Olmo has a release clause, Eze has a release clause, Toney looking to move... Will we sign anyone that actually elevates the first XI up a level?
I can't remember the last time I have looked forward to a new season this much. I know we still have a lot to do but I trust the process under this recruitment team.
Great to hear about all the academy guys, but I hardly ever hear anything about Santiago or Soonsup-Bell, they're both getting to the age now where they really should be ready for first team football, but they never get mentioned. What's going on?
Congrats on the Charlotte trip! hopefully you miss the Dog Days of Summer period which usually lasts til the middle of September. I live an hour outside in South Carolina.
While it's completely unacceptable for players to get involved with the crowd, the organisers must take a lot of the blame for allowing the players' families to be placed in such an area without adequate security. If you get the security right, then you don't put the players in a position where, very stupidly, they think they need to act.
I did mean to say. The Archie Gray right back scenario. Isn't that the most sensible thing they could possibly do? Getting him used to playing the right back role in our system means he saves Pedro's legs by playing his part in certain cup games and substitution minutes. Then let him play certain times in midfield, as a sub, etc, when Pedro is playing as the natural back. I will be slightly gobsmacked if we don't see Bergvalls minutes on the pitch, both wide and centrall, and the same goes for Archie Gray and even Mikey Moore. In terms of flexibility, it's Ange's preferred modus operandi it would seem to achieve this.
Makes sense to me get him used to both roles. He'll be in midfield a lot as an inverted right-back anyway. Then he can develop wherever is best, which seems likely to be midfield.
I wouldn't say Premier League is tougher physical than the Swedish league. The pace of it is where it differs and of course also the players. But Lukas will take the step much quicker than most believe. He took the step from youth to senior straight away, then from second to first league as well. He went from u16's NT straight to u23's as well and you couldn't see it. He's just that adaptabe. He's going to do just fine even if thrown into the deep end. He'll just start swimming straight away.
Any sight of Soonsup-Bell? I saw he wasn’t on the roster for the U-21’s and didn’t hear his name mentioned with the first team. I’m thinking that might mean an injury or impending transfer? Thanks Ali!
Ange' ITV punditry was insightul. Talking of young players, he was not worried of their age, but stated if theyre good enough to simply play them and not over think it
Hi Ali. Guess we will have an update soon following the Hearts friendly. Otherwise it is very quiet. We keep hearing of commercial deal after commercial deal. The hotel, cinema, houses. Ticket costs going up, concessions being reduced. Is there any reason Spurs need to be careful with their spending? You hear us linked with Jonathan David at £25m. We sold Kane for £86m. Is there any reason we can’t buy Lois Openda for £70m from Leipzig or Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon for £50m say? Archie Gray wasn’t a bad start but we need cover at full back, a CB, not happy with Bissouma (shadow of his Brighton form) and a winger/striker is essential. Still plenty of time but just have to ask are Spurs short of money or do they want a cheap summer with plans to sell the club in a mega deal? Fans will be in uproar if money is not spent for sure. Thanks.
Cheers big A. Congrats on the subscribers ! Really disappointed with bentancur, needs a big year to justify some of his recent behaviour (not forgetting his angry outburst when he was subbed too).
Actual football!! Praise the Lord 🙌 Another one to add to the Ali gold wardrobe together with floating head we have the sailor look 👀 🤣. Big up Ali ehhhyyy 👍🏻
Great stuff as ever Ali. Very disappointed in Bentancur, especially given it hasn't yet been a month since his racist comment. I'm all up for second chances, but given the situation with new, exciting young players coming in in his position, do you think it's possible the club will have a second look at whether or not to move him on this summer? Also, I wanted to mention that I live in Yokohama Japan. Hoping to spot you at the game next Saturday! While you're here you should pay a visit to Marinos' stadium - The Nissan. You can do a tour of the Brazilian dressing room from the 2002 WC final which has been kept just as it was left, tactics board and all.
Sad to see Joe leave, seems he was another victim of all the chopping and changing of managers and styles, when he left on loan last season there was already the feeling that his ship had sailed at Spurs without really being given a chance. The money the chairman has wasted in all the years since Poch called for a painful rebuild, and we're still just a season in!
New to english football Only watch spurs have as I'm Aust so I follow and and you the other spurs blogs are so hostile towards their own team thanks for your chats to the point and Fair
If the FA or PL put a ban on Bentancur (can’t see how anyone else could) then I think we are at the stage of selling him His comments re Son were bad enough but he’s becoming a liability with this Add to that his injuries
I agree Alasdair, Royal is a very good defensive full back, ideal in an Italian team wanting to make use of that. I saw him a couple of times last season and his tackling and pace were immense, and he's got a great attitude, just doesn't suit Ange's system. And I'm convinced that Troy will develop into a top striker, just look at where Toney, Watkins and Vardy were at 21/22 years old.
I wonder if any other clubs have a man as amazing as Ali?? Single handedly the best spurs page! Absolute champ❤
Thanks, I'm sure they do.
Thank You sir! 🙏🏻. It's 2 am in India but i saw your tweets and knew a video was coming 😂. Thank You for your hard work 🩵.
That's dedication! ❤
Wow india
I'm happy you mentioned the 13 million views, cause indeed I've been watching EVERY one of them since I discovered this bloke filming the building of the stadium 😂. Also watched or listened to every Gold and Guest, without exception.

Thanks, very kind of you and it's greatly appreciated.
I think with bergvall, we should be patient. Let's not make the same mistake Chelsea made with De Bruyne. Knee jerk reactions are everywhere in football nowadays. COYS
I have a feeling Johnson is going to have an amazing season. I Can see him and Sonny having at least a 10g 10a season in the league
More I reckon.
He got 15 goal involvements in his debut season at the club. A lot of players would love to be that awful.
@@AlasdairGoldjournalist not only that but he missed so many big chances. So you know he is getting in the right areas and he has really good tools at the club to help his finishing to improve.

I agree. I think he's going to have a big second season.
@@AlasdairGoldjournalist Hi Ali, where do we catch the highlights?
I don't think it was filmed in that way. Just for the coaches to use.
Big up Ali ! I’m also so excited for Archie Gray .
I think he’s playing them out of position because he wants them to see perspective from all positions in his tactics .
Congrats on 300+. That’s serious dedication and discipline. Hat 🎩 off to you sir 🫡

Thanks Mikey.

Thanks. It's very much appreciated.
I know it’s a League One team, but I’m very excited to see Brendan in Year 2 of our system. My expectations are high. Rooting for him.
Thanks, Alasdair! Enjoyed hearing about the talented young players. Looking forward to seeing them develop. Wishing Troy Parrott all the best. Also, hoping Dele will be able to resurrect his career.
That would be great.
Another class video Ali ! 👍🏻
Nice message at the end.
You’re the spurs Fonz ehhhyyy 👍🏻
Mikey Moore will be our Foden, Bergvall will be our Odegaard. Archie Gray will be our Declan Rice. What a team we are building❤Spurs.
Oh yeah, sounds like you really like the Arsenal team! What a choice!
So you want us to be a wannabe arsenal team 😡
Odegaard and especially Rice, while decent players, are criminally overrated so I hope not.
Great video Ali, love the pre season input/snippets we get from you every year !
That is the face of a man who needs his club to be playing matches immediately
Can't stand the Twitter accounts pushing for all these young players to be put into the first team. They compare the Spurs lads with Yamal
It is such a bogus comparison. Leave them to mature at their own speed.
Congrats on 60k, Ali. So well deserved. Lolo was in the team last night and even scored, so at least his semi-final injury was not that bad. The guy's having a nightmare summer anyway 😬

That's very kind of you Josh. You're more than welcome.
Thanks Ali for the precious insights into the clandestine friendly against Cambridge United.

Thanks again Ali.
We should look at Richard Rios the Colombian midfielder who was the breakout player of the tournament for me.
Always enjoy your videos and positive outlook. Looking forward to your reporting of the pre-season tours and games as I thought the last couple of years those videos/reports were always really insightful. Keep up the great work
Thank you.

You deserve all the success Ali! Great video as always.
Thank you.
Hi Alasdair thanks for the update very interesting and informative as always thanks for all your hard work take care stay safe
Not sure what Lankshear needs to do in order to develop, bu hope a loan allows him to flourish. Too good to not get a pathway to first team.
U know what good luck to dele. I have so much respect for the lad I really wish he was still at spurs. I would give him a free years deal with us. Many young talents have signed for spurs like bale and Walker but one that lives up in my spurs life is dele. He was a young hot shot but his whole image and spurs career sits well with me. Top lad and pray he comes back to that level. ❤❤❤❤ good luck dele x
Just looked back at your video history - been here since pre blue wall where bale rejoined by the looks of it 😎 3yrs+ watching just about every video wow. The beard maybe getting slightly more grey through the thumbnails 😅
We all owe you a big thank you for your commitment as the videos really do help with the sanity of supporting spurs!
Definitely a lot more white in the beard.
Thanks for the update Ali. Nice to get back to hearing about Tottenham games.
Another great video, I would love to hear more about the young man with the friendship bracelets.
Good news for Troy Parrot and Dele Alli as for Gray playing RB I was kind of hoping he'd be replacing Bissouma not back up for Porro. As for our U-21's and who is going out on loan I'd like to think at least one of them would end up at Birmingham City, wherever they go however I hope they get guaranteed minutes, I do hope they'll keep Dane Scarlett around. As for Bentancur you got to think he turns his brain off when he get's back to Uruguay, first the comments about Sonny and now this I'm curious to know if the Uruguay FA are going to turn around and sue the stadium for not providing adequate security.

Love that.
Eddie Gray was greak winger. Part of the great Leeds team under Revie.
Welcome back Ally...Buzzing 4 new season...COYS

Good to hear about the first Friendlies. Minutes into legs….. good to happen….
Always appreciated your updates. First time came across you was for them walks round the stadium build.
Feels like a lifetime ago. Thanks.
Yeah has been a while now, looking forward to seeing how the youngsters in the squad get on, lots of promise.
Once again another fantastic and informative video Alasdair
Congrats on the Charlotte trip! hopefully you miss the Dog Days of Summer period which usually lasts til the middle of September. I live an hour outside in South Carolina.
Finally, football news! It's been such a long wait. What positions did Sonny and Johnson play in the first half? I bet they'll be on fire next season!
Love your work gold
Never been this early for an Ali Gold video! I’m sure it’s gonna be another banger 🎉
Liking the shirt, too, Ali 👍
Thanks!
Great shirt to be fair

If you get the security right, then you don't put the players in a position where, very stupidly, they think they need to act.

It was reported he is injured
I mentioned him in the video. He's injured at the moment.
Thanks for the reply! I have it on in the background while I hang out with my 2 and 4 year olds. They must have been extra loud at that moment haha!

Hello Mr Gold! We are here
I loved every second of this Ali X168
Thanks x168.
ali gold with the goods... much appreciated!
Ali, can we expect a ton more transfer activity starting next week I'm getting bored as hell
Love it Ali!!!! Will you be heading to Seoul? Would love to grab a pint with you.
I will be. Give me a shout if you see me around.
PS:
I still want that t shirt with you and Guesty’s head on it ! Go on Lee you know you want to 😆
Cheers big A. Congrats on the subscribers ! Really disappointed with bentancur, needs a big year to justify some of his recent behaviour (not forgetting his angry outburst when he was subbed too).
Joy, oh joy!! We share your enjoyment hearing about a match rather than a rumour.
You can see I enjoyed the day.
@@AlasdairGoldjournalist Indeed we could. 👍🏻👍🏻
Come on do it do what you do so well, with enthusiasm 👍🏼👏🏻
Hi Alasdair! Bergvall is pronounced "Byre-vall"
Hopefully we can now get down to business and start looking forward to the start of the next season.
Actual football!! Praise the Lord 🙌
Another one to add to the Ali gold wardrobe together with floating head we have the sailor look 👀 🤣.
Big up Ali ehhhyyy 👍🏻
Great stuff as ever Ali.
Very disappointed in Bentancur, especially given it hasn't yet been a month since his racist comment. I'm all up for second chances, but given the situation with new, exciting young players coming in in his position, do you think it's possible the club will have a second look at whether or not to move him on this summer?
Also, I wanted to mention that I live in Yokohama Japan. Hoping to spot you at the game next Saturday! While you're here you should pay a visit to Marinos' stadium - The Nissan. You can do a tour of the Brazilian dressing room from the 2002 WC final which has been kept just as it was left, tactics board and all.
Hi Alasdair I know it's the football channel but i saw two movies this past week the quiet place day one and fly me to the moon
Did you enjoy them?
sorry yes i enjoyed both
Sad to see Joe leave, seems he was another victim of all the chopping and changing of managers and styles, when he left on loan last season there was already the feeling that his ship had sailed at Spurs without really being given a chance. The money the chairman has wasted in all the years since Poch called for a painful rebuild, and we're still just a season in!
It still riles me that Poch was told there was no money to invest in the squad, then he was sacked and the money banks opened for José and co
Thank You!
New to english football Only watch spurs have as I'm Aust so I follow and and you the other spurs blogs are so hostile towards their own team thanks for your chats to the point and Fair
Ali is hostile??
Enfield now playing in the same league as my local team St albans city
Another good video mate
Thanks Danny.
Three cheers for Club football!
Curry ordered, legend
Lankshear deserve to be there with first team.
How nice Alistair to have a career you get to enjoy.
Definitely. I'm very fortunate.
If the FA or PL put a ban on Bentancur (can’t see how anyone else could) then I think we are at the stage of selling him
His comments re Son were bad enough but he’s becoming a liability with this
Add to that his injuries
I agree Alasdair, Royal is a very good defensive full back, ideal in an Italian team wanting to make use of that. I saw him a couple of times last season and his tackling and pace were immense, and he's got a great attitude, just doesn't suit Ange's system. And I'm convinced that Troy will develop into a top striker, just look at where Toney, Watkins and Vardy were at 21/22 years old.
do you know if Ashley Phillips played 1st or 2nd half?
also if he played 1st half did he play at right back?
good ali~!!!
