This is half true. When he came in with conte dude had COVID for a couple of weeks also he had a hard time fitting in a 2 man midfield which he can’t play in. I love biss now but he struggled a lot under conte because he just not as good as being in a 2 man midfield. Again he is a great player with true quality but an awful or below average in a 2 man midfielder. But conte does take some blame in not making him fit into the system.
He was injured for a large majority of the season TBF. He was injured when he joined and obviously lost his starting spot right then. Then ended up with a stress fracture at the end of the season.
Had he been given more playing time by Conte, he would not have had much opportunity to showcase his talents. Progressive passes and dribbles through the middle likely would have gotten him benched.
The biggest part of Ange's genius and transformative effect on the squad is his ability to instill full confidence in the players to be able to express themselves and take risks - van de ven the other day said that after making a mistake he just heard ange yelling more, more, more and it lifted everyone. Biss is the heart of it right now.
He was impressive at Brighton, but with Conte in charge, Bissouma was never going to fulfill his full potential at Spurs, glad to see the faith given to him by Ange.
Bissouma is our Dembele regen. He’s box to box, carries the ball with an ability that’s rarely seen in the deep lying midfielders. Always looks so strong and comfortable. Never afraid to receive it and all the other players are comfortable giving it to him no matter of the pressure
You do realize Bissouma was injured for 2 or 3 months. He also missed all of preseason with covid. He wasn't impressive in the few opportunities he had. Wrong system. But also unfortunate injuries. He would have started when Bentancour got injured.
@@sof5930 If Bissouma is wrong for your system then your system is rubbish. Even after Bentancur got injured Bissouma was barely given a game, Skipp and even Sarr were picked ahead of him multiple times.
@@sof5930I know he was injured for a good amount of time last season. I still think that when you have a player like Bissouma available you have to play him. Højbjerg played 35 league games last season and I feel that there is little debate to be had between who is better between the two.
Having Caicedo eased our (Brighton's) loss of Bissouma. He was great and honestly I miss him far more than Caicedo. Its not just what he does, its the swagger with which he does it.
As somoene who watched both as well. I would say Bissouma had way better dribbling than Caicedo. Caicedo though might be a bit faster because we saw him play in right back when Veltman/Lamptey got injured and he was decent. Both are class players. Caicedo seems to have a bad start to his Chelsea career but I think there is an excellent player in there, Chelsea made Cucurella look like garbage when he looked like a world beater at Brighton.
Amazing thing is you guys don’t miss either! For all clubs buying your players whoever does your scouting and recruitment is on another level. As someone who wanted you to win the fa cup in the 80s, so glad that no matter who you sell you seem to get better. For me (Spurs fan) delighted to see you guys carrying it on, and getting the wins too. Honestly would not be surprised to see you playing champions league football next year.
@@DuncanB1972 Spurs look amazing under Ange. Brighton apparently uses Tony Bloom's software which collects data and gives some kind of key metrics on certain players across world leagues.
I remember Moussa Dembele having a PL season where he was in the top 5 for most successful dribbles and most total tackles...would not surprise me at all if Bissouma does something similar
@@jordanpritchard5083 he starts over Sarr when fully fit but that's seems too harsh on him with that form recently. He's more like a counter attack kind of player so might be an impactful sub. Just pray to god that he will return as good as before for now... :(
@@jordanpritchard5083 I think he probably becomes an alternative to Bissouma. Their control, passing and workrate are similar. Sarr/Skipp are doing a more functional job
@@jordanpritchard5083 Bentancur was spurs most important player (and prob best player apart from Kane) in the last two seasons. He walks into the team when fit and in form
Love these individual player analysis videos, always so interesting, lovely work James. Unfortunately, as an Arsenal fan, I gotta say Spurs were probably the better team at The Emirates, and to us it felt like a loss. I think they’ll get top 4 this season
Hardly, Jesus puts his chance away and it’s 2-0 and could get ugly. Or Jorginho doesn’t make that uncharacteristic mistake. Spurs deserved the draw because they finished their chances a lot better and didn’t make silly defensive mistakes. But outside of these moments, Arsenal created more chances of higher quality
@@paulcasey4282 why do you use hypothetical scenarios that didn't happen to back your argument? if raya doesn't make that save, it could've been 1-1 at that point. if romero didn't handball it, saka wouldn't have scored. if saliba wasn't your best defender, spurs would've been through 1 on 1 on multiple occasions. point is, it didn't happen. reality is, jesus missed. reality is, jorginho gave the ball away. reality is, romero handballed it. reality is, raya made a world class save. stop talking about ifs, buts, and maybes because there's no point to them. arsenal were better first half. and spurs were better second half. although not the better team overall, spurs played football that's more beautiful to watch and created arguibly more chances that they could've scored.
Bissouma is like frankie del jong from Barca - effortlessly carrying the ball but he has power / agility and leaves everyone in aura on and off the pitch. He easily elimates any threats and turns it into an attack opportunity .. the fact Spurs got him for £25m makes him the best midfieder this season so far.. dare to say can any player at his price point is any better in EPL ? just stand back and watch this player and enjoy the football on display.
Viewer from Mali here🇲🇱. Seeing my countryman Bissouma thrive in the toughest league in the world makes me very happy. For 3 years he refused to play for the national team because of poor management, but he's back now and it's a joy to see him wear our shirt again. Thank you for shining light on him.
Similar to a Frankie de jong profile although I’d say bissouma is a better carrier but de jong has insane distribution. Bissouma never plays the ball over the top which de jong excels at but they are similar 6s I think
If u see some of the players liverpool are linked with aswell. Andre from brazil is crazy at evading pressure to progress the ball. Chevk out higlights of him on youtube. Its beautiful to watch
That drive right near the end was absolutely majestic, took the ball on his chest in tottenham's half, drove past 3 Arsenal players into their side, approaching the box, and passed to Kulusevski. Memories of prime Moussa Dembele! Except he's got the stamina that Dembele was missing.
If the midfield is the engine, then bissouma is definitely the Piston. Absorbing pressure and intensity, pushing explosively and creating forward momentum Edit: nah fuck it, he's the wole car!
Bissou only got a 5.5 out of 10 in the daily mail for his performance in the derby. Goes to show how little people still understand about the game. Thanks for the well researched insight.
Would be so good if you youtubers could show the clips they want to dissect. Obviously a limit, but let them have no more than 30 seconds of footage per account (no sooner than 48hr after game) who's losing out?😢
He is a 6 that plays as a pivot like every other elite team that plays from the back. He progresses the ball/break the press What's special is instead of relying on long passes (like prilo) or short passes (like busquets) he rely mostly on dribbles pass players (very fun to watch).
@@FrizFroz very underrated, I think if he had a better injury record he would have been spoken more highly of but on his day he was unplayable at times
@@user-zx6hp6wp6x for sure, Dembele’s physicality sets him apart from most midfielders but paired with his elegance on the ball made him such a unique and fun watch
Bissouma has made me rethink the whole holding mid role I always envisioned a defensively astute player that can pass their way out of a press, but Bissouma just carries it through a press with skill and trickery opening up the whole field in front of him
My new Dembele, incredible footballer. If Bentacur comes back as good as he was before his injury, wow! What a combination. I lick my lips in anticipation. Trust you're feeling better young man. This comes all the way from Bangalore, India
Before caicedo, there was bissouma and he was absolutely brilliant at brighton. Lost his way a little bit when spurs bought him but now hes back to his best.
Imagine a midfield of bissouma, camavinga and prime mousa dembele they would walk the ball in to the back of the net atleast 5 times a game and then just win the ball back from kickoff
@@hashimrahman51 but could do little else???Put some respect on the GOAT! Also stop wanking over stats. They don’t tell the whole story about how good someone is. When you’ve watched someone like Dembele you know they broke the mould with that guy. He was a BEAST
@@atomicvojyager why would anyone throw away cocaine? Do you know how expensive that shit is especially in todays cost of living crisis? I will keep hold of my coke and other recreationals thanks you very much. Also dembele was the GOAT
@@raquille1he was undeniably strong on the ball and hardly lost it, which is the most fundamental skill that a great midfielder needs. However, he was good for little else, especially in terms of progressive passes in the opponents half of the field.
Yves is kinda like prems version of Frenkie de Jong, a player who can play at any position really, looks for spaces and most importantly; who can receive a ball under pressure and drive a ball forwards. Yves is an exceptional player and he only played 8 games, im looking forward to what this guy will do
He’s way way better than Dembele. Dembele couldn’t make a progressive pass much less a goal contribution to save his life-totally one dimensional compared to Bissouma.
People really forgot how amazing he was at Brighton, I’d argue he was world class second half of the 21/22 season. I remember he completely marked Kane out of the game twice that year
If I was to describe Bissouma I’d just say number 6. He can do everything required in that position, on and off the ball, to an elite level. Truly on his way to being world class
Those stats also showed Kulusevski in a very positive light. He hasn't produced as much in terms of G/A and hasn't looked as impactful as when he first came, so I'm surprised the stats were so high
I believe he's the player in the PL who has covered the most distance. He's also scored two goals. And we are only 6 games in. I think his workrate is actually more deceptive that it appears - hence why he has kept his place and is the one in the spurs front 4 that is rarely subbed - and why Brennan came in to replace Soloman
When it came to combined 11’s people (mostly Arsenal fans) absolutely dismissed him because of Rice, Maddison, and Odegaard. All I’m saying is sure you may only be able to take 1 of Bissouma or Rice, but it’s not as clear cut as you think if your decision is purely based off this season. Depends on the football you want that team to play.
they are just differnt players. Bissouma is there to keep the play moving forward, break the lines. Rice is more of a destroyer, who is capable of the odd strong foray forward. Both I would suggest are critical to how a team plays - hence maybe why Arsenal feel a bit off the pace at the beginning of the season.
He is the pivot on which Angeball works , loving his performance and play making this season . Hope Bentancur can get fit to provide both rotation and options to continue the teams progress this season and into the future. A very high standards player that is making Tottenhams midfield so formidable and showing why other teams and fans, can not be so dismissive of Anges revolution . I'm loving Big Ange instead ! CoYS.
Sarr/Bentancur/Skippy are the holding midfielders protecting the back line. Biss is our box to box midfield general, our new Moussa Dembele we hoped Ndombele would be, Moussa was unreal on the ball too but hopefully in this system Yves can add a lot more goals and assists to his game, that was Moussa's only downfall to his game, a player that good shoulda had more end product but rarely got high enough to score.
Ange had Reo Hatate at Celtic who was capable of similar touch and movement, lost the ball a little more than Bissouma, but is still developing. Hatate is a class player and could do well in the EPL in my opinion.
Says so much about your content and this community that the comments aren’t just flooded with discord names but actually just filled with football chat. Lovely stuff
only DM currently better than him right now in the prem is Rodri, but honestly the way Bissouma receives the ball from the back 4 and pivots through danger is Busquets-esqe
Have you contacted the prem about using clips? I think they would really benefit from having a TH-cam star with an organic community being able to use clips. I mean I love your analysis but if you could play clips it would just really make you the best in the game, and I think it would be ingratiating to the younger generation of fans
He does what he wants and noone's gonna stop him He does what he wants and noone's gonna stop him He does what he wants and noone's gonna stop him Hey Yves Bissouma, aa-ay!

only DM currently better than him right now in the prem is Rodri, but honestly the way Bissouma receives the ball from the back 4 and pivots through danger is Busquets-esqe
Rodri has the benefit of being on the best possession team in the world. What if he had to actually make tackles and interceptions too?
Best midfielder in the prem
Bissouma is probably a defensive free-role?
I did say this on the narrative as well! 👀
It's time to revoke Conte's coaching license
What's the app you're using to annotate with arrows and such? I'd love to use something like it for my own club's video. Thanks! loved the video.
Great video as always James!! Best football content out there!!
Bissouma the ultimate destroyer
Quick question: what site are you getting the data from? Thanks
Hi! Great video! I was wondering where do you extract all the stats?
Hugs from Argentina amigo
i know what he is , hes someone Klopp would love to add to that liverpool team
Great meme potential with the thumbnail
Good to see you've recovered from covid
Maturing is realising bissouma is clear of everyone but Rodri who he’s on par with. They are different players but on the same level.
Fairly new to this channel. Great content every time. Loving your work.
Loved this James coys
Bissouma is the new Moussa Dembele for spurs. Good dribbling, dont feel pressuere on the ball, good passing, good defending.
IF ANYONE SEES THIS, MAKE SURE YOU VOTE FOR JAMES FOR FOOTBALL CONTENT CREATOR OF THE YEAR!!!
You should've showed him at Brighton as well
as a s spurs fan, were lucky to have him
Love the tactics board. Does anyone know if that is a public tool we can use? Great content as always James!
But but Arsenal supporters think he’s rubbish. One went as far to say Rice is ten times as good. 🤣🤣
Have you contacted the prem about using clips? I think they would really benefit from having a TH-cam star with an organic community being able to use clips. I mean I love your analysis but if you could play clips it would just really make you the best in the game, and I think it would be ingratiating to the younger generation of fans
There is no way they let anybody else use the clips. They pay a few billion for the rights, like they are going to just share that around willy nilly.
@@bazlalor They should though, NBA does it and it works for them.
Biss is the Boss. Great show. Wonderful analysis.
He does what he wants and noone's gonna stop him
He does what he wants and noone's gonna stop him
He does what he wants and noone's gonna stop him
Hey Yves Bissouma, aa-ay!
whats the tune for that one?
COYS 💙🤍
I knew he would come good. I always like to give a player 2 seasons. Just needed the right manager to come in
Poor Sarr - missing out on your graphic 😭😂
