@@areebsiddiqui758 absolutely wrong, I study law as part of my degree and I can tell you that pictures and voice recordings in these cases are extremely weak. A picture doesn't provide enough evidence to show Mason did that, when it happened or anything, voice recordings don't provide context at all either. In a court of law and this country/society you're legally innocent until proven guilty. If you're guilty of a crime, especially of that magnitude, you're usually charged by now, just shows him it isn't as clear or obvious as people think.
Hey Alfie, I just thought of a cracking idea for a video you could do on the turbulent recent history of Goztepe in the Super Lig. They’re one of the Super Lig’s most well supported clubs (a bit like a Newcastle United, Sunderland or Strasbourg if you may). In the 2001/02 season, they finished seventh in the top flight, however from 2002 to 2008, they were relegated five times in six seasons, due to their inability to reduce their outstanding debt which resulted in the football club being banned from signing new players during that time. In August of 2007, a business based in Istanbul, vowed to take them back to the top flight making them one of the top five clubs in the country, but they were met with lots of suspicions from the fan base, and then they handed over the ownership to another bloke called Mehmet Sepil in 2014. Anyway, they’re back in the Super Lig as a solid mid table/weaker top half team. Why am I bringing all this up? Because apparently Abramovich is looking to possibly buy the club himself, after being sanctioned from the UK. It’s a crazy crazy story and may you could look into this, not to mention, they are not only a rare example of a club that is considered a neighbourhood club, as well as the fact that they’ve played in 3 different stadiums since 2011, but also in 1969, they became the first Turkish football team to play a semi-final of a European competition.
They also have maybe the best fanbase after the Big 3 in Istanbul, Trabzon, Bursa and Eskişehir. The latter two clubs are also marred in debt and relegated from the top league and therefore worth looking into
Not my team but Owens debut season was a thing to behold, not seen anything like it since. It was almost like we all knew he was going to make it all the way.
Gareth Barry's transition from a left back to DM is something special imo. It truly elevated his career but the man also stayed mostly injury free throughout his career which is something not easy seeing that his role is more on the physical side.
I think he’s one of the most underrated players in the history of the league, always looked good for City and Villa in his peak and even later on at Everton. I was born in 98 and I always thought him or Carrick should’ve started with Lampard and/or Gerrard for England… we’d of had much more balance
I think it is more the preperation for Brexit which has necessitated it as enough spaces have to be kept in the squad. But finances allowing many top players to be taken from abroad requires players to push really hard to get into the club's first teams. Hence the technical ability improvements.
Day 3: Completely irrelevant to the topic of this video, but considering that the last player who played in the miracle of Bern died about 4 months ago, I would really like to see a video about the whole story between Germany and Hungary, especially because it meant so much to at least the German population
Didn't know that Piqué and Fabregas actually started playing in the Premier League! I'd be very curious to see what you think about Serie A graduates, but that video could be at least twice as long as this one... 😅
While watching this video, I googled Frank Lampard's scoring stats and my mind is blown. How a midfielder can achieve such scoring + assisting figures is mind boggling.
Lampard played for prime Chelsea and rode the coattails of many a great teammates. In comparison Gerrard played with average or poor teammates for most of his career and still scored a boatload of goals. With a better team around him he would surely have surpassed Lampard in the goals tally.
@@leobuscaglia5576 He did, but he also was there for well over a decade starting. Arrived before Abramovich as well. Was more impressed with him at Chelsea than at West Ham as well. He was solid all round but getting goals at midfield was impressive. Caused a lot of problems for defences trying to mark him.
I mean I know it's probably best for this channel not to mention him but *all morality* aside, I will. Mason Greenwood 100% deserved a spot in this. Just goes to show how so much so soon can completely destroy not just a young talent but a young man... Especially in this day & age.
How would he get a place? He came up in 2019, yeah? Perhaps as an "honourable" mention, but there weren't any in this one. And btw, Greenwood isn't a victim of this modern age, or somehow compelled to hurt other people, simply by circumstance...
An honorable mention for Woodgate? He had about 30 good games in he career.. And about 20 of those were in his first couple seasons. Talent but weak and barely played and 'honourable' mention for a player who's most notable career moment was a trial for a racist attack.. Not for me this one.
Roy Keane wasn't an academy graduate of Forest, he joined them in 1990 at 19 and went straight into the first team. He had already played first team football in Ireland.
Yes the point made is that the Premier League had a lot of young tallent in 1992-93 but all the players mentioned had already made their league debuts.
Great subjects for these videos but Christ almighty that voice is like fingernails on a black board especially when combine with the overly verbose nature and monotonous tone.
It's not that English football can't nurture ball players,it's themselves who cnt nurture their career.they over estimate themselves and dnt put in extra work.there is no ball playing player playing in the top level In the mid 30's ..
I'm sorry but also for 2018-19 despite what he has done off the field and his awful character.... Mason greenwood deserves an honourable mention over Harvey Elliot.
Day 3 of asking for a video about possibly the true greatest Romanian footballer of all time, Nicolae Dobrin who had the chance to play for Real Madrid but couldn't because of the communist regime.
great video as per! id say jacob ramsay has to be the best debutant for the 20/21 season no? id say he’s at least on par with elanga, although both are having great seasons.
And passing, and playmaking. Did you really watch Wilshere before the injuries? Availability is the best ability at the end of the day so Henderson > Wilshere
@@lordgemini2376 Henderson is just so much more talented, i did watch Wilshere before his injuries, he was good, he impressed me a bit,but Henderson is soooo good at passing that ball,so good at defending and even physically
Jordan Henderson captained Liverpool to Premier League & Champions League victories. Jack Wheelchair ♿ smoked, drank, and underachieved... The fact that you even thought it was debatable, shows your lack of knowledge...& intelligence.
You put so much research and time into these videos it’s amazing. It’s so interesting to learn about all things football and your videos are so perfect. Keep up the amazing work man!
There's almost no such thing as an easy game in the PL. All the teams fighting to avoid relegation have put up some strong games against top 6 teams. Sure, some of the results make them look like a walkover but it's never a foregone conclusion prior to the game. Go to any other top league and at least 30% (closer to 50% in some leagues) are embarrassingly easy games where the top teams take no risk to blood one or two youngsters without fear that they'll lose the game. That's why it's easier for other leagues to bring on youngsters...
Pique is horrible!!!!! Ferguson saw it ... He had maybe 2 decent seasons but he is slow and the older he gets the bigger the gap ! I can't believe farcelona prefered this guy over Messi ! But when your wife owns part of the team you be the worst you will still have a place in the team
Day 11: best sons of former players currently playing (example: Diego Simeone’s son is killing it in Serie A) Criteria: dad must have played top flight football
@@jhaych I'd say that's still easier than having to get past arguably the two best RBs in the world on talent, James and Trent. Not to mention Walker and Trippier are still going about just fine.
@@jhaych Cancelo plays at LB and I don't think he's better than Trent, maybe on level with James. Although James is younger and less experienced so will get better. And he's a RB as well as RWB, he's equally good in both positions and better defensively than both of those two. Overall in terms of talent though I'd pick Trent and Cancelo is a great player as well.
@@jai-sukhdhesi8758 I understand why he did not mention him, but technically there is a need to mention him in this video, as a Man City fan Mason's debut was a beast he looked really good better than other debutants anyway, now since this video is based on debuts and not careers he should at least got an unhonarable mention but again i understand why he did not.
Joe cole was a more technically gifted footballer when him and lampard first started playing.. frank went on improved and had a better Carrer.. but joe cole as a teenager was exciting to watch he was a gifted boy with the ball.. you new even when he was a kid he could rip team's apart
Wait..did he really put Sol Campbell in 92-93 as the best although he only played one game compared to players who reached PFA team of the year? Or did I misunderstand completely?
Maybe do a video picking your best squad with only having 1 player from every prem team.Any formation but at least a backup 2 every position bar a GK.Something like that could work as a idea for you?
Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 296) I will not give up until the video is made or Alfie himself tells me to stop. Everyone else telling me that will be ignored. If you don't believe my number, just go back to the previous videos. I'm at the bottom most of the time, but I'm there.
