Alfie please upload these videos to Spotify as podcasts, I’d imagine most people listen to them as such anyway and being able to queue them up as I fall asleep would be incredible
Off the top of my head: Hazard, Yaya Touré, Owen, Campbell, Fowler, Sheringham and Le Tissier. Probably not all in equal measure bit that's what I could come up with in a couple minutes.
In the spirit of Ryuzaki Day 7 of asking for an in-depth video on Bodø/Glimt, who just recently became champions for the 4th time in 5 years, and who only got promoted back to Eliteserien as recently as 2017 This is one heck of a gold mine, Alfie. Make this video happen 😘 🇳🇴
Please do these videos about "What on Earth is Going On???": 1.Manchester City (They only won 1 in the last 11 games, even losing 8 of them). 2.Roma (Had 3 managers in just first half of this season and are possibility threatened with relegation due to the unexpected Serie A race). 3.Valencia (Last place in La Liga table this season, despite still had to play against Real Madrid, which will be scheduled during the New Year after it was postponed. What a shocking downfall for such a great Spanish club that won 2 La Liga titles this century and played in 2 Champions League Finals).
Please do a vid on the 7 biggest teams that flopped. Teams that were expected to dominate and yet completely and utterly failed. I think of the galacticos and psg when I imagine this.
In my opinion Ashley Cole should be much higher. He’s probably one of the few players on this who you could argue was the best player in his position at the time
This video hits on the disconnect caused by the PL only being formed in 1992 and forgoing all of the legends and history tied to the old first division. The hall of fame would’ve been more legitimate if it included the old first division. And got players like Bobby Charlton or even someone from the Victorian era. US/Canadian sport hall of fames started much earlier, but also are not league specific. Baseball has people from all different leagues. Same with Hockey and Football.
John Terry is RIGHT footed. 18:27 Not sure if Alfie was trying to compliment JT's weak foot or if he just didn't know and made a mistake. JT did predominantly play on the left side of a CB pair and he was indeed good with his left foot, although he was NOT left footed.
That entire '95 Blackburn team that Shearer played in, should still be making gratuity payments to that Palace fan that Cantona did the Kung-Fu kick on.
I dont know how to title this video idea but can you make the 7 best “22 players on the pitch at the same time” or in my stupid idea the tile should be “best worst player on a pitch” say If prime barcelona played madrid for example there might’ve been a time where tje worse player was like keylor navas which was still great:
Agree fully with your list, Alfie. For reason's you explain well. Keane was arguably the best player in the world for several years (as in the player that contributed the most to their team consistently winning at the highest level) , only eclipsed in the eyes of many by Zidane, because of the latter's unbelievably good performances in international tournaments.
Just FYI in the US sports world, the Pro Football Hall of Fame and Basketball Hall of Fame are considered a joke to a degree because the barrier to entry if far far far lower when compared to the Baseball Hall of Fame which started the who sporting Hall of Fame thing in the first place being a much older sport and all. The Baseball Hall of Fame has such high standards that there were multiple years where nobody was inducted during the mid-2010s despite arguably the best hitter and best pitcher of all time both being on the ballot. The reason is because the voters (who are all journalists) were reeling from the massive steroids scandal that rocked the sport which Bonds and Clemens were deeply implication in, on top of both of them being prickly characters which certainly wasn't appreciated by said journalists who are responsible for the vote. Also P.S: Get Freddy Adu in the Premier League Hall of Fame he's a legend of the game.
Can't remember if the normal Hall of Fame is still going but just hate that the Premier League ignores the history of English Football in general and like you mentioned, pretends it only came into creation in 1992 and not a whole 100+ years before hand. So many talented players ignored because they didn't play in the Premier League...
Video idea: Seven footballers who are underrated because of one thing they did during a game. I must admit, that I was surprised by the ranking of Roy Keane and the reason is mostly what he did to Haaland senior. When Alfie mentioned him I had to remind myself: "Right, he was not only an evil and sadistic criminal, but also a great player." Similarly I was surprised when he said Cantona was a very professional player, I had assumed the exact opposite, because of the one scene he mentioned. Another name that comes to mind is Frank Rijkaard who at least in Germany is mostly remembered as the guy who spat at Völler. But I am sure, Alfie might come up with some names I did not even think of.
Video idea based on a comment in this video - 7 footballers who performed best in finals Drogba seems like an obvious choice but some people do forget (or never noticed) that he had 2 awful AFCON finals so that may push him down the list. Im curious who'd come out on top.
Bergkamp was prolific for Holland and Ajax but if you look at Arsenal, Overmas was basically playing how the wingers/inside forwards do now. That can't happen in a 4-4-2. Bergkamp was basically playing as a playmaker not a striker.
I'm very grateful that Wayne Rooney scored his first Premier league goal for Everton in 2002 on the same day I was born on 19th October. I'm still looking forward to meeting him, which is still something on my bucket list.
Aguero is one of my favourite ever opposition players, but what was peculiar was he never scored against us at Anfield in his career, despite facing a centre back combination featuring the likes of Skrtel, Lovren, Kolo Toure or Sakho.
Please do a video ranking the most successful Senior Managers with the least Senior Managerial experience and greatest most effective position changes of all time
Good list. The HOF might not be what they thought it would but your video shows they have at least celebrated the right people (other than Giggs). I would imagine Ian Ashbee is a cert for the next induction.
Ferdinand over Terry, Schmeikel over Cech, Scholes over Lampard. As a Chelsea fan, I absolutely love how much you "definitely don't hate" my club. I realise that sounds sarcastic, but I'm being sincere - it genuinely tickles me.
Its really missing things that make the NFL HOF special. The "door knock" where the commissioner of the selection committee has a 1-1 talk and with the inductee and is being thanked, not for their playing career but there influence in the teams they played for and how they played the game. These conversations are very heartfelt, giving the impression that it was more than just trophies. The gold Jackets which is wearable and is used as reference for present players to be a great player sometimes being more valuable than a Super Bowl ring. This HOF looks so plastered on and generic. We dont even know the process of how they're chosen. In the NFL its done democratically with Votes and people debating their case for individual players.
I didn't even see anywhere this year that people got added to the PL hall of fame. That's how much people care, that the social media algorithms didn't even highlight it to me when I mainly follow PL football content.
#thepeopleschannel a video on the Bangladesh premier league and the rise of Bashundhara kings would be good A team who went into the top flight after promotion and won the last Six league titles now! Are they the next fc Bayern? Are they a team to keep a eye on next few years? Thanks Alfie 😊
No Hall of Fame is ever going to catch on without a physical building to visit, like fans of NFL players make a trip to Ohio for their induction every year but I never see any interest in something like the ICC Hall of Fame cor cricket, even though it's still seen as a huge honour to be included
It's a complete load of Americanisation. The fact that Ryan Giggs got passed over proves it's not a football players Hall of Fame it's more like a Hall of Fame for some people who played football good and especially didn't have any off field troubles. Also it's very subjective, I should have a defined set of stat's so the general public all know why a player gets inducted.
John Terry, TOP 5… Greatest center back in the history of the Prem and I’d go as far as to put him top 5 CB’s ever. He’s underrated. Greatest CB in the history of the Prem ISN’T good enough.
I don’t disagree very much. It’s tough with Henry but I guess I’d vote him #1. Suarez, Fonaldo but had better years and I’d argue even Bale had a season beyond Henry‘s best. And on the other end I’d take Rooneys Premier league career along with a few others over Henry. But he’s seems to meet the criteria of being spectacular for just long enough
There's only one current PL player I can see eventually making it into the PL hall of fame, he's currently 8th in the all time PL top scorers (5 goals behind Henry at time of writing), and 11th all time PL top assister (2 assists behind Beckham). Can you guess who it is?
I mean there's obviously not ONLY one who could make it... Salah VVD & KDB will very likely all make it for sure. Then you have many others who could be in with a shout too, by the time they're done

Good idea actually

7 players who quit in their prime
Cantona
I really like that idea
John Terry is RIGHT footed. 18:27
Not sure if Alfie was trying to compliment JT's weak foot or if he just didn't know and made a mistake. JT did predominantly play on the left side of a CB pair and he was indeed good with his left foot, although he was NOT left footed.
top 7 players that played in the 19th century Alfie please x
"literally no one cares", I don't think I'd even heard about it until now...
That entire '95 Blackburn team that Shearer played in, should still be making gratuity payments to that Palace fan that Cantona did the Kung-Fu kick on.
How about:
Eric Cantona,s 7 greatest film roles?
Or
7 Best footballers to have performance art/entertainment careers also? Tevez #1
You should've mentioned that Andy Cole's incredible goal record in the PL includes just 1 penalty.
I dont know how to title this video idea but can you make the 7 best “22 players on the pitch at the same time” or in my stupid idea the tile should be “best worst player on a pitch” say If prime barcelona played madrid for example there might’ve been a time where tje worse player was like keylor navas which was still great:
Mayeb the 7 best 11th best starter. Like pedro or varane
@@leonardo-fn2yo I kinda mean 22 players on a pitch when two big teams play each other and the worst player on the pitch is still good
Agree fully with your list, Alfie. For reason's you explain well. Keane was arguably the best player in the world for several years (as in the player that contributed the most to their team consistently winning at the highest level) , only eclipsed in the eyes of many by Zidane, because of the latter's unbelievably good performances in international tournaments.

The reason is because the voters (who are all journalists) were reeling from the massive steroids scandal that rocked the sport which Bonds and Clemens were deeply implication in, on top of both of them being prickly characters which certainly wasn't appreciated by said journalists who are responsible for the vote.

Would you please be able to make a video on the 50 Greatest Managers of All Time?
The biggest issue is that the HOF is not based on ability or player achievements but rather on marketing.
It’s definitely based on ability. Which inductee has no ability?
I care so little about the premier league hall of fame that I was about to skip a HITC Sevens video🤣🤣🤣
the goalkeeper hate is absolutely increadible.
Putting "based on the quality and quantity of their Premier League performances" straight on my bingo card for this episode
Video idea based on a comment in this video - 7 footballers who performed best in finals
Drogba seems like an obvious choice but some people do forget (or never noticed) that he had 2 awful AFCON finals so that may push him down the list. Im curious who'd come out on top.
Kompany should also be last for his managerial stint.
Just wanted to salute your courage in your placement of Keane. Cannot argue with your logic
Im gonna disagree on everything on this list but I still have watch the video for the Freddy Adu segment.
Can you do a video looking at the best of all time Eredivisie players?
Bergkamp was prolific for Holland and Ajax but if you look at Arsenal, Overmas was basically playing how the wingers/inside forwards do now. That can't happen in a 4-4-2. Bergkamp was basically playing as a playmaker not a striker.
I'm very grateful that Wayne Rooney scored his first Premier league goal for Everton in 2002 on the same day I was born on 19th October. I'm still looking forward to meeting him, which is still something on my bucket list.
That’s quite Rooney.
Aguero is one of my favourite ever opposition players, but what was peculiar was he never scored against us at Anfield in his career, despite facing a centre back combination featuring the likes of Skrtel, Lovren, Kolo Toure or Sakho.
I just want to take this opportunity to appreciate Andrew Cole's suit jacket. That is a thing of beauty!

Good list. The HOF might not be what they thought it would but your video shows they have at least celebrated the right people (other than Giggs). I would imagine Ian Ashbee is a cert for the next induction.
How about a video where you make your own hall of fame including players from the pre premier league era- would be very interesting
How about ranking every ballon d'or nominee that finished last (30th)?
2:50 to be honest, I just don't question Alfie on football. I trust his opinion nearly all the time... Maybe blindly...
Ferdinand over Terry, Schmeikel over Cech, Scholes over Lampard. As a Chelsea fan, I absolutely love how much you "definitely don't hate" my club. I realise that sounds sarcastic, but I'm being sincere - it genuinely tickles me.
Is the “what on earth is going on at Manchester City?” video coming soon?
Ask 115 times
Need David silva to be inducted next year
Alfie Goldfish have actually been known to be able to remember mazes
Rooney deserves more recognition for what he did
My only issue with Roy Keane being in second is he’s not first, unbelievable football player and unbelievable captain
The thing I’m most curious about is: if Giggs was added to the list, where would you rank him?
Genuinely decent rankings considering stats and games played. Would have ranked Shearer higher, but most pretty fair

A well reasoned list that I almost entirely agree with. Sorry to disappoint.
I don’t understand why Scmichel and Cech are still placed so far apart on this list?
Cech was a great goalkeeper. Schmeichel was an icon. I think it's fair.
Not every football fan liked Bergkamp. He was a bastard off the ball, so unbelievably dirty when he thought the ref wasn't looking.
Henry is the reason for most Arsenal fans in the world to support the gunners.

Didn’t even know this was a thing till this upload
On Andy Cole, what was the “other” issues Alfie alluded to? No snark here, genuinely wondering.
His skin colour I’m guessing.

as a united fan, im pretty happy with this list tbf
discussion is always nice so i missed some dutch!

I disagree, i don´t think anyone will disagree.
Fed up of Henry being labelled constantly as the greatest of all time. Shearer, Rooney and Kane have been more impressive in his position alone.
