Revenge is four goals, three points, two Sonny assists and one red card for Villa player. Marvellous. Btw that 4th goal had 29 uninterupted Spurs passes before Timo put it in the net. Must be some sort of record to go with a magnificent performance. Thanks for the video Alasdair, always insightful.

Bissouma, Sarr, and Maddison provide such a great balance to our midfield. Sarr is quickly becoming one of my favorite players and should be amongst the first names on the team sheet!

Contrary to popular opinion, I thought our first half was immense. All the super pressing exhausted the Villa resolve and the KO punches followed in the 2nd half. Fantastic controlled performance.

I loved the reaction of the two Villa players when they both got done by Porro and Kulu in the build up to our 3rd goal (Kulu's cross to Sonny). It just summed up what a bad afternoon they were all having 😂

Sarr is undroppable at the moment. His growth this season has been phenomenal

That one’s for Brennan and the haters and content creators that call themselves Fans! 💪🏻💪🏻💙💙

Re Ange's unwillingness to equate 'top 4' as a goal, he's consistently said it's all about the team progressing and getting better - so that the team can win things. IF the team is progressing and advancing, top 4 will just come naturally - no need to make it a goal. The goal is to have the team progress so that they can win things. Simple!

Sarr reminds me of Martin Peters. His technique, ability to ghost past players, passing and vision are excellent. He can run a bit as well!

What a marvellous performance by the whole squad. They controlled the entire game, restricted Villa's attacks to peanuts, and were still pushing for more at the end. Let's hope this becomes the norm

Me and my partner (who knows nothing about football) always watch the "Hello everyone, Alasdair Gold here" and she guesses whether it's a good result for spurs or not, she got it straight away this time! Thanks for the vids Ali!

What a game We where unbelievable. Every player should be proud. That red card was nasty. Could of broken hid leg . Hope vdv is OK. It was good to see the dragon get some good mins . He come on and played really well . Great 3 points. Great video coys

Clinical finishing by spurs combined with excellent game management. All the goals were superb. Sarr and Bissouma are in great form with Maddison . BJ is a constant threat and unpredictable. I feel he is going to be a huge star. Son' s goal was majestic. Timo scoring again) We must not lose this feel good factor at Fulham with a poor performance otherwise Villa result will deflate the team. . Keep this momentum THFC. Thanks AG.

The term "marauding" comes to mind when I see Udoggie eating up the yardage on that left side. The way this lad carries the ball is breathtaking 😱

They were singing McGinn's name right before he got sent off. 😅😅

I saw you at Euston and agree, you did look grumpy 😀 McGinn's challenge was one born out of frustration at being outclassed. Hopefully this match signals the start, viva la revolution!

The cross and finish for the first goal was a thing of beauty....COYS

That was the best game since the first 10. Totally agree with you it's definitely white knuckle ride sometimes but as a long time supporter I'm loving every second of it.

Pape Matar Sarr ❤

V D V the Terminator, he’ll be back.

Difficult first half but much better in the second half. It was good to see a much more aggressive Brennan Johnson against Villa, hopefully his confidence will grow. Don't think any of our players had a bad game, they were all good but as well as Johnson, Sarr and Udogie were brilliant.

Yes Ali the confidence is showing in all the young guys and that doesn't happen by accident. That happens when you have a world class manager who builds a great team from the cleaners to the coaches to the strikers.

The point Ange was making with his reply to your Q about Van de ven’s substitution being a turning point was: The result was completely independent of vDV coming off because dragusin is a quality replacement and has been training with the team. Regardless of who is in that role, the quality, output and outcome wasn’t going to be affected. For Ange the squad and team will always be greater than the individual

It was a great team performance but I was really pleased for Johnson who is a nice lad a good player and come in for some very unjustified stick of late from a certain section of supposed Spurs fans.

This is feels like the spurs 3-0 win against arsenal from may 2022. Completely shifted the momentum of the top 4 race

Thanks Alasdair,, what a great result.. We all have smiles on our faces todays.

Still shocked our leader ange has transformed our club ,Shows experience counts hes top class manager lucky to have him coys players love his style and respect him ❤

Just thought Brendan Johnson was really brave always taking on defenders and holding the ball well.

Great team performance 💯 so happy seeing Johnson and Werner scoring I hope they both kick on and show everyone COYS❤❤❤❤

Brennan has been on 🔥

For some time I felt we needed to smash a team like this weekend to get back on track and never thought it would've been Villa. It could be a turning point of the season and get us back the confidence that seemed to have faded in the last two months. Keeping up within few points of the top 3 would be a huge statement in Ange's first season. Yet there's still an unreasonably optimistic possibly delusional part of me thinking 'but... Maybe?'

Love Ange's belief in not being self limiting (in respect to 4th place).

Yup still buzzing now! Was looking forward to this one!

Bayern went for Drăgușin, but had to settle with Dier. Spurs defense looking good.

Anyone else think Dragusin's distribution was excellent and could be a real plus for us going forward? (pun intended).

Can we call this game is the reverse turning point of the Chelsea one and all the way back to the top?🎉

Big Ange, is a great man manager.. players already love and respect him.. The fear him , in a good way also. What a great football philosophy he has also.. He said his gona do it his way, hasn't gone back on his word.. his getting the best out of every single player, the team is playing the best football in Europe .. dare say, no one would want to leave.. Any player would want to come and play for the spurs, all this in his first 6 months at the club.. his building something special, just laying diwn the foundation 's.. i said it 5 yrs ago, his one of the best manager's in the world. The best in building a side from scratch, not spending millions and having 5/6 transfer windows to do so.. thats why his the best.. His old school , with a modern touch. Has the Aussie mongrel in him, fight never say die attitude.

Brennan gets stick because of his price tag, he can only get better, big season for him next year.

Good day Ali, thanks for the video. I'm in Jordan now so the time difference is less unfavourable than it is in Singapore. I'll be here till the end of the season. Pape's cross reminded me of Darren Robert Anderton all those years ago. Doesn't the story about Christian needing to respect someone before commuting his loyalty remind you of Michael Jordan in the Last Dance? How Steve earned Michael's respect by standing up to him. I agree that the win against Villa was the most complete performance under Angelos. Thanks again for the video, Ali #coys

It’s been coming for a while and performances like that should become more common as Ange’s philosophy gets ingrained and the fitness levels required to deliver it are achieved. I felt that our game control tempo had been off recently and this was more in line with the Angeball ethos. At the start of the season our throw ins and free kicks seemed to be played so much faster and it felt like we are reverting to that recently. Although they had limited turnaround time, and it showed, we ran Villa off their feet right from the start and they never challenged in a meaningful fashion. We Never Stop !

Was a little worried for dragu coming on in such a big moment however looking back I think it’s exactly what he needed to prove that he can do the business for us

That’s what we like to see Ali Gold with a smile on his face.

I would argue that Destiny is the best LB in the prem at the moment ❤️ That tackle from Benta on Cash at the end of the match was enjoyed by me, because of the circumstances ❤️ Even got a bit of Roar from the crowd ❤️ Timo Werners finish was very good, clinical 👍

Udogie and porro are so crucial..at the moment there is no cover that can compare with them

Weve played like that in many games, finishing better this time...fantastic future 4 that team...funny how a good win changes perspective when all the good work previously has not been given the praise waranted...work in progress but wonderful team...no ceiling

Player of the season for us is going to be one hell of a close run thing this year. I can think of seven candidates that might be in the running. I'd probably go for Vicario though personally for pure consistency

Great to hear someone say that this is the way,first half consolidate,if we score ok then second half lets go more speed in our play. Good performance good video…keep up the good work 👏🏻👏🏻

Mcginn reminds me of Steed Malbranque the former Tottenham french midfielder . He never stops buzzing around . Mad moment from him tbf.

1st half was like when you play with your little brother, 2nd half was like when you put your little brother in his place. Everyone had a great game, udogie, sarr and johnson stand out for me. Loved seeing son push werner toward the away stand similar to when sarr got his first goal. Whats porros favorite spice? nutmeg. Hojbjergs double fake then through ball was class. That bench is looking as threatening as the starting team, absolute class all round. Dragusin solid for the back Bentancur for midfield, Werner for the front. All interchangable starters. Exciting times for spurs. Long may it last

VDV is a special species the like we have never seen! Nobody I saw possessed such kind of speed & strength like him! He is so fast he run from 10 yards behind the attackers and bully them out of the balls!!!Monster!!!

Think Jonno is really coming on now, on a nice little scoring run, Kulu did well, Madders looking back to near his best, Dragusin looking comfortable, Sarr looking good too…. Really good high press from the front players…. Loving it..

I dont think Ange was contrary in his views. He said champions league qualification and money wasnt a goldern ticket to success. He said playing european football would help their development. More games. He would rather have european football than not.

Beautiful performance

We (Celtic fans) did tell you's what you'd get from this manager and team. Put the seatbelt on and enjoy.

All the Brennan haters in the mud. Gold has the last laugh ❤

Thanks for another excellent video, Alasdair! I’m still elated from the match. It really clicked and the squad played with confidence. So happy they did not lose their focus and discipline. This big win is surely the sweetest revenge!

It's so telling just how much more enthusiastic the manager has been after these last two performances. Whilst he has always shown positivity and encouragement towards the players, in the last couple of months whenever we've won a game, he's always been quick to mention just how much we still need to improve in a lot of areas. The control we're starting to exert over 90 minutes now has to be pleasing to him and shows that we are starting to reap the rewards of good work.

Spurs now a team and have a good squad. Even with VDV going down injured Radu stepped in and played as if he has been playing all season. Next two month Spurs will be in a groove can see Son staying central with Kulu Timo or Johson either side. More peace more direct . looking foward to it

You have the perfect voice for narrating children's audio books, mate. "Big Ange The Teddy Bear Takes The Toot Toot Train To White Hart Lane" ~ As told by Alasdair Gold.

Great video as usual Ali - always a highlight of the week. Take a shot each time Ali says 'like I say'!

Pretty, pretty, pretty good analysis of Villa Match. Always very insightful Mr Gold!

Great vid, Ali. One stat from the Villa game that seems to be overlooked is that we were the first team to come away with a clean sheet from Villa park this season. Very impressed with Spurs this weekend. COYS.

IF YOU’RE HAPPY AND YOU KNOW IT, CLAP YOUR ANGE!!

Really apprehensive going into the game at Villa Park if i'm honest, especially how fragile we've looked defensively as of late ... 90+mins later, probably the best performance of the season imo, truly outstanding display by the guy's + revenge tastes sweet . . . Thanks Alisdair, always love you're take on everything Tottenham related COME ON YOU SPURS ! 🤍

Ange has bought Brazil 74 to the prem. They will win, they will loose. But don't miss a minute!

Some very astute observations. I think that we are still a Jekyll and Hyde team. Maybe its down to Ange wanting to try different things before next season. So the squad is still learning what they are capable of and what they can do. Sorta getting as many arrows in their quiver for next season. Some things work, others dont. Final thought - we are 4 years behind that lot down the road, but only a potential 8pts away. Have a great week. COYS!!

Genuinely looked for a Super Like button because the normal Like button didn't quite cut it! Thanks Ali.

I do think we will have a huge say in who wins the league, i don't think it will be us, but i do think we going to give one side nightmares once it is over..........The Aussie Spurs Fan.

Best performance of the season. Previous few seasons I feel like Feb-April has always been bad. The mood is always low and we’re desperate for wins. This new spurs never seem to stay down for long. One bad result vs Wolves and back with 2 vital wins. I also think that match didn’t have a clear MOTM because everyone was excellent. Possibly Pape Matar De Bryune for that cross alone?

The Sarr pass was sublime, especially considering he had just stumbled and was slightly unbalanced.

Haha that's the cheeriest and excited start in a while. Love it! Went in with the same apprehension as with the Newcastle game and ended up with a similar smashing performance. Hopefully it continues! Plus, glad a reckless tackle was actually recognised (without the need for studs).

I think we’ll get top 4 now. We’re experienced enough at finishing there and you can tell with the Villa players and fans, nerves were creeping in on Sunday, they’re not used to being in there and I’m sure doubt will creep in now too.

Honestly, we've always been saying an opponent was due a beating one of the good days.

Deki is an unsung hero, he's underrated at times and is deceptive in how he plays but always seems to contribute in one way or another. I agree with you, let's see where these next 11 games take us. AngeBall at its best v Villa! More of the same please boys v Fulham even though, at times,my old ticker skips a beat!! Thanks Alasdair, another great video matey😊

I haven’t watched the game yet but I am of the opinion that if Dragu was with us when we played Chelskie result would have been different.

A lot of that result was due to Villas tactics. Emery played Tottenham instead of playing his own game. Spurs don't ever do that, which win or lose, makes them great to watch.

Thank you for the video Alasdair. It was a great performance, and hopefully the team can build on this to get some consistency. In regard to the injury to Van de Ven on the late offside call, I think I recall John Stones and Ederson being injured on late offside calls earlier in the season. This certainly seems to be a rule that needs to be changed to protect players. Overall, happy with how everyone played, and hope for a win against Fulham.

Funnily enough I had a family breakfast the morning of the match, and did not stop ranting and raving to anyone I was talking to about football that we would win 4 nil. My sisters boyfriend, Aston Villa fan uncle, and godfather all thought I was insane. And I got it absolutely right!! Nothing sweeter, thanks for the vid Ali!!

Excellent as always 🎉🎉🎉

I'm studying journalism and we get a lot of journalists in to speak with us, their main message is always to "do your time" in terms of doing the gritty jobs and putting in the effort to build yourself up in the world of journalism. Where did you start and what kind of work did you have to put in to get where you are and become one of the most respected Spurs writers out there?

Thanks Ali! What a great performance by everyone. The only criticism I had was Brennan's terrible limp shove on McGinn after the red card. Shove him like you mean it! And you, Gold, how can say the words "if you know your history" without following it up with "it's enough to make your heart go ooooooh". Sort it out!

Thanks for the video Ali. The thought that we’ve only had 2 windows, and Postecoglou is only just getting started is incredibly exciting. I have a feeling with the way we’re playing it’s going to be hard to shift players, who wouldn’t want to be a part of this?

Excellent analysis (as always!). It makes such a big difference to my week when Spurs do so well at the weekend! Great result against a team of kickers (and yet another slightly biased ref). COYS!

The key reason for such a performance is the low average of the player's ages. Young players have the stamina and tenacity that more than compensate for lack of experience. Van de Vin, Udogie, Sarr, Kulusevsky, Johnson, and even Royal are all in their early twenties and the rest of the players are not much older. Maybe only Son is above 30 and he is no slouch. Davies is also a devoted and loyal player. Not to mention the other youngsters on and off the bench.

Alasdair I can tell your excitement and happiness in your voice with that result. Keep up the superb match game analysis 👏

The second goal was quintessential Angeball. High press, force the turnover, score on the counter

Clean sheet for Vic yay! Brennan so good, Timo scores, Pape's cross, Radu meant great depth, Madders getting sharper and sharper, Son on fire 🔥 Pedro having a crack, sooooo good. Up the haters COYS!

Always enjoyable to listen to you Alasdair, similarly with Gold and Guest. Good balance without the hype and absolute rubbish that some others come out with, in the name of a bit of controversy.

Enjoyed your report on the interview with Richie and Emerson (I'll check it out). I've always rated Emerson as a top team man - he's always smiling, always celebrating other player's achievements/big moments with them.

Thanks for your videos Ali. Really appreciate these. Feels like I’m chatting to a friend about Spurs!

Great game, but Romero missed so many of Son’s runs … every once in a while ping the ball over the top!

Ali you are a great story teller. I love how you tell the story of the game and weave that into the story of Tottenham. The perfectly timed quotes are like dialogue from the main characters in the drama!

Ali, it’s always nice to have a new video to listen to - but even nicer when we perform like we did last match. Defence was solid, Bissou, Star boy and Madders bossed midfield, and all our attackers did a great job.

It's Gold it Gold it's Ali Ali Gold ❤

Bailey looked at McGinn, as McGinn was hoping for a review, shook his head and gave him the Doolaley tap.

Hi Alasdair, an absolute team performance, 3 great points I feel for V D V he was playing a blinder. Stay safe and well. COYS.

An on field injury that happens because of this VAR play on and see situation has been my beef from day one. It’s done in an attempt to make up time from VAR reviews, but like stated puts players in unnecessary risk. With the money involved I can see a time when the league will be sued if there is an injury as a direct result.

Thanks Ali, been looking forward to this one since full time!

I think he comes across contrary because most journalists have a headline in mind when they ask a question, he just refuses to play that game.

Cheers Ali! Top work as always. Great analysis of the match!

I really bloody love you mate. You’re just the best. Nothing weird, but you’re as important to me as Son. COYFS
