Antonio Conte's Tottenham Hotspur and inside Nuno's final weeks at the club

[@georgiomichaelides6315]

Ali: Goes on holiday in October with all transfer windows closed, 4 months after a manager is hired expecting a quiet one Levy: Don’t think so Alasdair

[@canadian695]

Is anyone else half-expecting an Ali-update in three days, starting with a large sigh, where he addresses that Conte is not the new manager?

[@stpd1957]

Yep

[@ianbed1]

Benitez will be available anytime soon that will do for levy saving a few quid again !!

[@thequinlan]

Conte: Allright, I'm in. I just need money and players. Levy: Whoa, whoa, whoa...

[@shdanko]

It’s cool there’s been a here we go 😃

[@paulmes7667]

.... and Conte joins! Don't question your comment, just things have moved on. Life as a Spurs supporter continues to be a rollercoaster.

[@jakepeterson5243]

Bumping into Alasdair Gold and his wonderful family at Disney World is my absolute dream

[@jeffery8792]

You need to get a life….. 😂 your absolute dream? 😂

[@T3hJax]

Ali G on holiday and still got time to give us content!

[@KGBgringo]

This club doesn't deserve such a good journalist

[@Beelzebunge]

Been waiting for this. Didn't expect it so soon. So nice one Ali.

[@keithball7392]

Good to see you Alasdair. Us Spurs fans always love your insight and honesty. Top man 💪. COYS!

[@rhs1980]

In all honesty... Better than watching the games atm

[@paulfrost4678]

💯

[@peterb.2183]

With Daniel Levy’s hiring & firing costs, wouldn’t have been cheaper to pay for the coach you wanted in the first place!?

[@chasemullins6044]

Exactly.. stupid business imo

[@kahlylwilliamson9961]

Facts..

[@Δανιήλ-ψ8χ]

100%

[@sherwooddejavu]

I’m all for Conte’s appointment as long as he doesn’t say “we’re gonna make you proud” I can’t deal with those flashbacks.

[@jabe8874]

Appreciate you sacrificing your holidays to provide updates on spurs...top guy!

[@AlexDeLarge77]

“Tottenham Hotspur always an adventure” That’s one way of describing it. Always a circus would be a better interpretation.

[@nexofilipe]

More like always a disappointment

[@Shsjier]

@@nexofilipe you're disappointed now??

[@mark_terrinda]

Rarely an adventure on the pitch these days.

[@colinsansom5924]

We appreciate you. Much appreciated for being such a wonderful soul. Your passion is felt here in New Zealand , USA and Australia.

[@hanszieten6288]

Alastair is such a diplomatic, I loved the ‘Dier hasn’t been that totally awful’ comment lol Great content as usual. Thankyou

[@druidhugger6311]

The players have strung up Poch , Jose now Nuno . I wish I was in the dressing room so I could throw a few right handers at some of these prema donas . Thanks for this vid Mr Gold especially in the middle of your hols . Top man.

[@SustainableShooter]

Thanks for the video Alasdair. What I will say though is if spurs could afford conte now why just not get him back in the summer. We now have to pay off nuno and pay conte. The board’s incompetence is another level.

[@martinjohn6688]

Mr Tottenham puts it all in perspective yet again. Great job Alistair sorry you missed some of your holiday.

[@dimes9594]

Thanks for always making our week Alasdair

[@longbridge100]

The only social media content on spurs I've been waiting for all day. Big up A G

If I've ever needed an ali gold video.. its today! Thought you might leave it until tomorrow. Bless you sir

The notification I been waiting for all day and I’m awaiting my results from the clinic. Thanks Mr Gold 😁

[@tommears7321]

😂

[@micheandmikey]

Thanks for the video Ali, I have been checking hourly for a video. Agreed, Nuno is a good guy, but at the end of the day as fans we were all getting tired of getting our asses handed to us in each match. Have a great rest of your holiday, cheers!

[@jasoncanavan5237]

Great to have you back to keep us updated

[@GMcKean82]

Not even a Spurs fan, but your stuff is always tremendous, AG 👍 Top man taking time out from your holiday for this & at least you guys have got there in the end with Conte 😉

[@petegarside3104]

Nuno wasn't the right fit granted, but was still thrown under the bus by primadonna players who have let down multiple managers now and a chairman who only wants to back the boss when it suits him.I hope Conte brings his discipline and sorts things out. Maybe his arrival means we're about to show a new level of intent and ambition🤞

[@RGT1882]

Who let multiple managers down? Lloris? Kane? (Definitely let NES down) Son? Dier? (He’s just not very good) Sanchez (same as Dier, neither are not committed just have a mistake in them every game) winks? He’s just average and was not a starter under the last two rightly so, Davies? Generally a 6/10 player each game, but commitment not in doubt, Dele? Yeah his regression has been frightening after his first couple of years. Moura? No he’s been very committed , Really the only players who have spanned all the managers. Not sure if it’s the right argument. Maybe a better one is some of our players are properly average, but mainly it’s been the poor style Mourinho and NES wanted the team to play totally anti Tottenham.

[@gomperhooblet]

@@RGT1882 Agreed Rich, it's quality not commitment

[@Aidan-qu2xn]

bang on

[@jason22spurs]

Have a great holiday Mr Gold

[@spencerbates5030]

As always, a great, well balanced and informative report Alistair, nice one 👌COYS ❤️

[@5haraith]

Haha, was just watching We are Tottenham Tv yesterday and it was mentioned there Nuno would likely be fired now, cos Ali Gold is on holiday :D It was bound to happen! Thanks for always bringing the Spurs craziness down to a calmer more sensible level.

It’s called Gold and Guest Talk Tottenham.

Another great honest opinion with inside contacts , thank you

Cheers Alisdair. I always enjoy your videos.

You’ll love Lisbon! Thanks for this update. I’m sad for NES personally, but ultimately it was the right thing to let him go.

Ali Gold. The man , the myth, the maverick!!!! Sorry I'm late mate. Great update was per usual. Keep it up mate. Enjoy your hols ( while you can ) CLUB LEGEND COYS

[@61sven]

Thanks for posting Alasdair, I was desperate to hear from you despite the fact I’m also on my hols on other side of world, but following events at home closely. I’m trying desperately not too get too excited about Conte until its done, and very worried Levy will somehow mess it up at last minute. Conte will actually make me look forward to going to games again, that hasn’t happened for a long while. Cannot wait to see him roasting some of our wasters who are coasting, hopefully their days are numbered. Please, please , please let it happen.

[@dangullotti6945]

Thanks for always providing your level insight to proceedings. Especially while on holiday! Top man. COYS

Lovely to see you. Hope you have a great Holiday when it continues. I too feel sorry for Nuno as he appears to be a really nice man. Where will we be?!?!?! Nick

[@mikalaiho]

Such a good point about Rodon. I’m not a person to say so and so out, but Levy’s cocked things up when it comes to football decisions, it’s so obvious, so yeah - in a fair world, he’d have to sack himself. Good video once again, thanks Ali.

[@AuctionDirectFlowers]

Brilliant insight.. your intro, a true true Spurs fan. Please let this decision come off..

[@stevecohen2216]

Could it be Al, towards the end of Poch’s term when the players stopped performing, that they knew Poch was looking to refresh the squad and possibly offload players and they were looking over their shoulder? Why do you think players stop performing for a manager, Poch, Mourinho and NES? Possibly a question for a Q&A session. COYS

[@rhs1980]

Could be anything... Lucas not starting the CL final could've rippled distaste through the squad.. Perhaps they were just knackered pressing the poch way... In the Amazon doc, eriksen said he felt like cattle being taken to market, not in control of his own career... It only takes one wrotten egg to ruin breakfast.. Could be anything. We must only be privy to the tip of the iceberg.. What is apparent, is that there are very few players in this squad who play for the badge now... If we still had super Jan, that wouldn't be acceptable... Probs dier, winks, Hugo, Lucas, SONNY.... Kane? Or is his head still in favour of divorce? He isn't playing like he wants it more than 60k fans. That's all we ask at the end of the day

[@duttycrowles3789]

The Moura substitution was the final nail. Remember Poch not playing him in the CL final after his master class in the Ajax semi instead playing Kane who wasn't fit.... I feel the same anger as I did then ... Glad he's gone! COYS!!

[@davewilliams9094]

Welcome back AG, and another excellent stream on your return from hols, keep them rolling 💫

[@colinmiller8361]

Another Levy masterclass in how to run a football club. His managerial appointments in twenty years have been poor to say the least. However this lot of players must take a lot of the blame for the results this season. Look at Kane. Why is he getting game time with the performances he has been putting in. Good luck to Conte or whoever gets the job, you're going to need it.

[@ZueGeey]

Because no one else to play.. Remember we only got 1 striker for years nowbowwow

[@fairplayfairman]

Thanks for the update despite your break, Ali! Don’t see how the club could refuse Conte’s spending requirements - the squad continues to need an overhaul anyway so why not let one of the best out there take the helm?

[@brankobarjaktarovic7805]

Always enjoy your posts. Yes, we have now got a pop star manager in Conte, think most of us were disappointed not to have had him as manager during the summer. Nuno was left out in the cold, maybe Fabio Paratici recommended him because he thought he might do a job for Spurs. As Wolves did play some good stuff under him.

[@dennismartin2407]

We miss you Alasdair. You give so much wonderful insight to the Tottenham good and bad times. Admittedly more bad over past couple of years. Anyway enjoy what holiday you do get. 🌞💤

[@marktaylor4216]

Great to watch and listen to Ali, agree with quite a lot of what you've said. I hope Conte can come in and discipline the boys into a harsh reality. No excuses and no ego's are acceptable from him. Let's hope for attacking football and proper backing from the board.

[@kem6291]

I’m not going to lie was worried when we had not heard from you did not realise you was away last time we heard from you you was getting over COVID so thought hope your alright!
