Would a "7 footballers who score more goals than you think" video be a possibility?
Great idea
Bryan Linssen at feynoord,, just a shout.. His stats in the last 5 years have been crazy good
Jota.
Jesus asked to be played as a winger this season because in his own opinion he thinks he plays better there than in a conventional number 9 role. What he does so well is his intense pressing off the ball, harrying defenders and helping the midfield to win possession back. Guardiola has even gone so far as to say he’s the best in the world at pressuring defenders off the ball. He’s also in the top 10 premier league players with the best minutes per goal or assist of all time (something like 92 minutes per goal contribution) which for a 24 year old is remarkable. He might not be an out and out goal getter like Aguero was, but his team play and his off the ball work are absolutely world class, so I’m definitely going to disagree with the assessment that Guardiola hasn’t gotten the best out of him, he’s just gotten something different from him.
I’ve actually never understood that minutes per G/A for Jesus because online it says 92 in the premier league as you’ve quoted but if you do the math it works out around 109 which is still a great return I’m just not sure on the figures
Guardiola must have smoked a bit too much of the skunk
Honestly he has to pump out a lot of videos and he makes a lot of weird calls like this, can't blame him he's from hull the drinking water is 50% lead
But now he's mostly stuck on the bench, I think he should leave city and actually play
Jesus was a regular starter for our national team, despite not scoring goals and Tite used to say the same thing, his pressing is amazing.
This video could have been comprised entirely of Chelsea's forwards. Couldn't agree more about Morata.
Werner, Lukaku and Hinguain have all scored less than what they should have in Chelsea.
Andres Iniestas goal scoring is even more insane. He scored 13 goals in 131 games... but he also scored the most important goal in Spanish national team history...
Exactly 💯
Morata was so good for Real Madrid in 16-17 season coming off the bench. 15 G 5 A in 26 La Liga games for a sub is fantastic. That RM bench was something else
I think he was even more prolific during hgis first time playing for Juventus. I think it was the 2014/2015 season where Juventus smashed Real out of the semi finals and Morata together with Tevez were just incredible. Obviously I'm not italian nor do I watch serie a, so I can't tell how good he was all round that season, but his CL appearances that I was fortunate enough to see were impressive
In this season he was first team many times, specially in the end of the season
If you’re talking Brighton, you have to mention Jakub Moder. Most appearances for Brighton this season and gets in so many good positions but his shots seem to be attracted to the woodwork or an outrageous keeper save. He’s incredibly unlucky and once he starts bagging he’s going to be a top top talent in the league.
POLSKA GUROM
Jakub is one hell of a player but he should be playing deeper anyway
Raheem Sterling, his positioning and instincts are elite, if his finishing was better he'd be insanely good
Same could be said of Mané
Sterling is insanely good though. His goal record is outstanding
@@chadjnr His finishing is trash though
@@chibifirestorm he can be inconsistent on occasion but you don't score 20+ goals regularly without being a competent finisher. Even though finishing isn't his biggest strength it goes to show how good he is at everything else that his numbers typically stay so good.
@@chibifirestorm you are overating the importance of finishing in goalscoring. Sterling has mastered being a good goalscorer even with bad finishing
Havertz is similar to Roberto Firmino in that, yes, he should score a few more, but it's worth remembering that despite his position (and shirt number in Firmino's case) that's not their main role in the team.
DeFenSiVe StRiKeR
They create space and chances for the wingers and other players.
Thats why mane and salah can shine
@@tomboterkoek8054 salah is having the best season of his career yet firmino has hardly played this year…
@@lb_75 taa
@@qwert28077 exactly they have Trent and don’t need him firmino, he’s washed end of
I honestly prefer Jesus out wide. His pressing is brilliant and works really hard off the ball. His team play is overlooked.
unbelievable how Grealish isn't even mentioned. City paid a fortune for him
Pep's not playing him! Bit of a nightmare transfer for him eh? He'll win trophies on paper, but not having contributed. (Although he's bound to play the 2nd leg against CP, now it's a done deal)...I'm a Spurs fan, but it's bad for the Prem and bad for ENGLAND I say! Imagine being able to put up £100M, just to keep any rival from signing a player?? 😬
He’s not in this list because they paid way more than he’s actually worth. Everyone knows that Grealish isn’t a prolific goal scorer and that he isn’t world class in general. A huge price tag doesn’t make him any better as a player
@@ryansmith-jr4gn name 25?
Grealish isn’t a goal scorer, he has never scored double figures in the league, idk why people expect him to score goals. You don’t change as a player overnight just because someone paid 100 mil for you. He has never had a bad game whenever he played tbh and this is his first season under Pep so it’ll take him a bit to fit in the system. Sane, Mahrez and Cancelo all struggled on their first season so it’s too early to call him a flop.
This was a nice video! Also the return of the Honourable Mentions was a good touch! Hope you’re taking care of yourself Alfie, Cheers for all the excellent content!
Bergwijn should be here, the man does so well to get it o perfect positions and then just turns into a lump of jelly when he gets the ball.
I personally think adama traore should score more goals
HOW THE HELL does Adama Traore only merit the briefest of mentions in this video!?!
1 goal in 12 games for Villa
5 in 71 for Boro'
11 in 154 for Wolves!
oh yeah and 0 in 2 for Barca so far {still wondering why Barca bought him even though as a Wolves fan I'm really glad he's finally stopped holding us back!}.
@@franohmsford7548 2 assist
@@bloodwater934 He's actually crap at crossing too so no!
@@franohmsford7548 because his ball progression and chances created are where he really shines
Too much power on his shots. If he tries to gently slot one in the bottom corner he ends up hitting it over.
Loved hearing your take on this, Alfie! You always make the most original videos!! Lmk when you're done with that sub-Saharan Africa-based Best XI!
great vid alfie.
Alfie I really hope one day you do a "What on Earth is going on at Sunderland", or a "Fall and fall of Sunderland". The latest revelations about the reality of who owns the club and how the fans have been misled, is just the latest in a long, long list of terrible management decisions going back as far as Steve Bruce in 2010
What's happened at Sunderland? I seemed to have missed all this
@@TheDepressedChemist apparently the previous owners still hold a majority stake at the club and provide some of the funding
@@tsg_23 oh damn
They have found their level.
@@archstanton6102 before our current stint in league 1 we had only spent one year in our history at that level. I'll admit we are shit but we would hope to at least compete in the Championship
Love this channel ! Top 7 best loans in the premier league Era please!
Going back in time a bit, Damien Duff, one of Ireland's most talented ever players, only scored 8 goals for Ireland. Shane Duffy's scored 7.
Duff was an out and out winger not an inside left/right like Mane or Sterling or Salah.
@@franohmsford7548 it's true, it was an era before wingers were reliable goalscorers. Still a surprising figure seeing as he was one of our best attacking threats.
@@dairebeare7839 Did McGeady score a good amount of goals for ROI?
@@sukhdevr3489 only 5. That's more to do with us being dreadful for most of his international career.
@@dairebeare7839 I remember him scoring a nice longshot after doing a McGeady spin against someone like Georgia. It's a shame he couldn't do well here at Everton, maybe he liked being a big fish in a small pond at Celtic and Moscow.
Morata was the first name that came to mind when I read the title so I’m not surprised he’s number 1. He always seems to get set up in the perfect situations to score yet just can’t quite finish. Obviously a good player, but with how many missed opportunities he’s had he’s gotta be one of the most frustrating players to watch.
What about something along the lines of "7 Players who are only good in second devision".
Here in Germany Simon Terodde is a great exaple, scoroing more than 20 goals a season for Bochum, Stuttgart, Cologne and Schalke in the 2. Bundesliga and still never beeing able to transfer this to the Bundesliga.
Huge respect to you for mentioning Pione Sisto, takes some ridicolous ball knowledge to have just a small amount of interest in the 3F Superliga, outside of Denmark
I knew where you were going with that Sansone vaccine joke but you delivered way better than I would have. Good stuff
Didn't know Sansone was smart... Always nice to see
alot of players to pick from, rashford would be a good shout, he misses so many chances, but breel embolo should score way more.
Zouma definitely worked on his accuracy
Some players should score more goals. Meanwhile I should write suggestions more regularly without missing a vid. Today this is not the case and I suggest:
Day 22: Top 7 second/amateur teams in football
(Hertha BSC II which almost won the DFB Pokal, Real Madrid Castilla who lost to their first team in the spanish cup in 1980 but got into Europe)
Alexis Saelemaekers from Milan is a good shout too, 4 goals from 69 games from the wing, he's pretty much the Serie A equivalent of Saint-Maximin, incredible skill and a joy to watch but just does not score often
His workrate is good though
As an Arsenal fan i have to say that you missed out on lacazette. He should have at least been an honourable mention the way he drives me crazy
Do a part 2!!!
Can you do a vid on Bodo/Glimt, never heard of them this season but they’ve been smashing it in Europe
I would have gone for Trossard in Brighton, i really like how he plays and I've always thought he would accomplish way more than he has.
How about 7 sides that play "beautiful" football but with not much succes and 7 sides who play "ugly" football with lot of success
Brighton, sevilla, spain national team, Atalanta,
Ugly but succesfull - Inter Milan, Juventus, Chelsea,
@@igkhdigkhd8760 chelsea don’t play ugly football
Why is defending considered ugly and attackong considered beautiful?
@@christianopulinaldo8319 that’s pretty much self explanatory. People wanna see goals and attacking football, nobody goes to a match to see a team parking the bus
@@igkhdigkhd8760 kind of ridiculous to say that Atalanta are playing without much success. They were literal nobodies only a few years ago and have reached a champions league quarter final since then
Agree 1 million percentage with Morata being #1,his movement is so good,he just needs to mind that offside trap though 😹
From Spurs you can add Steven Bergwijn and Lucas Moura.
Completely agree with number 1 and all the others made sense too
Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 277)
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.
Should do a video like this but for teams if you haven't already
Lallana has been dropped back, the player who has been unlucky or is young at the moment for Brighton outside of Maupay is Jakob Moder, 2.5xG but 0 goals. He is playing behind Maupay at the moment the most. If he scored 3 goals this season that would of made a large difference to us. Not having a go at him he like all of our players you can see them giving 100% every game.
Hey my man Bobby scored one hell of a goal tonight!
I've viewed morata and poulsen on Leipzig as very similar players. They work hard for the team, move well, and are very good on the ball, but for some reason often lack the end product in front of goal. As in I've seen them miss simple tap-ins. That said, both of them actually do a lot to boost team performance and improve strike partner's goal tallies
14:31 Oh no, the pain of watching Haris Seferovic
Ferran torres' mention is extra relevant after his match against napoli
That guy PSG signed from Barca there. The number 30? Very, very tidy but needs to start scoring regularly.
What about a top 7 underrated prolific strikers?
Does anybody remember the Todd cantwell TikTok dance where they all tagged Alfie ? (hitc sevens)
Steve Freeze hasn't really been bangin' in the goals lately. I think he should have featured
Whenever you say "Anyhow" I hear it as "Eddie Howe" in a similar way to how you used to always say without Freddie Adu
I say Inaki Williams, and immediately liked. Couldnt agree more with you
Day 218: Indonesia XI If All Eligible Players Had Declared For Them
Keep dreaming bocah
one of these days man, one of these days
@@diablejambe3460 I rate the effort tbf, but its getting sad now ngl. Also, theres a reason alfie hasnt done this yet, and the reason is that it isnt a good idea (either cos alfie knows it isnt gna do well in virws or he has no interest in doing it). I hope it never happens lol
Video about most prolific corner kick takers?
Alfie, did you seriously go out of your way to dig up Otar Kiteishvili of all people from Sturm Graz to mention him in this video? Damn son, your dedication is something else 💪🏻
Jesus has been moved to wing this season and has had injuries so I don't know why this seasons stats keep getting brought up. He has one of the best goal contributions per 90 in premier league history. Why? Because often he would come off the bench or get benched for Aguero and very rarely played 90 mins. He should have scored more sure but there are way more worthy people of a place on this list. Jesus is underrated.
Iker Muniain is one of the my favourite players to watch.
I think we feel some greats score more than they do because of when they score their goals, how they score them and what the resulting effect was...
Drogba, Iniesta.
Please make a video on thee problem with players versatility e.g havertz
Ihlas Bebou, hes brilliant in pressing, assisting, creating rooms inside the box. If he would score more or he had a better finishing, this man would be a sensational striker, made for the prem
When seeing this list. I assumed Ollie watkins would come in top but must of been one of the many many honorable mentions that just didn't get mentioned lol
I swear to god when Zouma came up my heart sunk like "oh god is Alfie goin to make a really shit tasteless Zouma kicking cats joke" 🤣🤣
As a Swedish Bianconeri I can only say ”yup”.
I would’ve given Islam Slimani a shout. Man was a Menace for Sporting during first half of the 2010s. But ever since a move to Leicester (and minus the loan to Monaco), he’s just never been the same.
Jesus plays on the wing for city now. He even claims he’s a winger. However the point still stands he doesn’t score enough atm
Sterling plays as a winger too
Alfie Can you do a documentary on the afc Wimbledon on the nine promotions in eleven years, how they’re a fan own club and how they have a stadium in plough lane now.
The story of they lost the club, how the F A allowed that and won’t allow that anymore.
How they were very close to moving to ireland
How they went up the English football leagues.
It would be a good documentary video if you can do this. #thepeopleschannel
41 in 115 is superb for a 22 yr old. Superb in fact.
As a Chelsea fan, it's sometimes easy to get frustrated with Havertz. He seemingly has all the talent and makes all the effort but there are plenty of games where he has absolutely no impact in any way, shape, or form. I was hoping Lukaku coming in would help shoulder the load and improve his numbers but that sadly hasn't really happened.
So THIS video is why Podence scored against us (LCFC) yesterday then! Humph. :P
Havertz is so quality but he’s so inconsistent. Sometimes he plays very very well and sometimes he absolutely disappears. He also always picks up little knocks and is sick often so he doesn’t build consistent game time. Hopefully he will start building consistent form
Jesus is in a goal drought in seleção since 2019. Since then, he played in 16 matches, or, 1168 minutes and didn't score a single goal
Jesus hasn't live up to expectations IMO
he's most likely getting sold this summer
The emergence of Oihan Sancet might prevent Inaki Williams from really getting up to the goals.
Jesus just isnt utilized in the center forward role, he plays far more out wide as he asked to be played there a while back. He's a bit like Firmino in a way, the main focus is for him to make contributions pressing/keeping posession/creating chances, hence why he has 7 assists in the prem this year. I feel as though you assessed Jesus thinking he was a central forward, but in reality he hasn't been consistently used there for well over a year.
15:45 I still think the fans are giving Zouma way too much abuse just because the club decided to not suspend him over the whole cat-kicking thing (which is what the abuse might as well be as a result of, by the way)
I agree that the Zouma abuse is a little out of hand, what he did was wrong of course, but the situation of him keeps getting worse and worse. I honestly believe if he didn’t play against Watford, dropped for one game, the abuse would be much lower.
@@shav17 Yeah, and one could argue that, at this point, it’s not even Zouma that they’re mad at, but rather the fact West Ham didn’t see fit to suspend him (like both Manchester clubs suspended Mendy and Greenwood for their crimes) and were still willing to start him on important games. They literally abused him so much that he asked not to play against Leicester; it’s almost as if the fans are taking it into their own hands JUST to deal with someone who’s ‘crimes’ weren’t bad enough to be suspended (the way I see it)
What about footballers that started scoring a lot late in their career?
Ferran torress should be at number 1 after watching him play last night...his finishing costed us a big 3 points
I love Morata as Juventus fan, but he should score more. Easy to root for though. I hope he plays better in a supporting role for Vlahovic.
Any us national team center forward. They need to score goals.
I guess you could say Sansone is worried about the wrong shot
Yes, I HATE when guys like Sansone are said to have an eye for goal. It as almost as if a lot of people say that about ANY forward as if it isn't one of the key parts of their JOB.
Vydra, Zaha, D James, Traore, Lanzini, Rodriguez, Cantwell, Redmond, Richarlison, Moura, Rashford.
Oh and Pepe
Alisson. We need at least 1.2 goals/season (League games).
Give the ball to Bobby and he will score! (No, he´ll assist, or cause goals by his actions). He´s our first line of defence, and a deadly one at that.
Can you do a film on footballers who should score LESS goals?
lacazzette should be on the list
Next video: Players who score more than they should
Ryan Kent should score more for Rangers
Quality
was really expecting Adama Traore to be no1 on this list, so much talent but almost no end product
Gabriel Jesus has developed into a brilliant winger and seems much more comfortable playing from a flank
Jesus plays as a winger now
two Swansea mentions, massive club
Honestly all of chelsea’s forward line
How about my 92 overall rated homegrown striker on FIFA who is valued at £120 million but never scores over 10 goals a season.
Oi, you leave Brighton alone. We hit the woodwork 18 times a game 🔵⚪️😩 but Maupay is on 8 goals this season, not sure how he’s expected to score much more. Lallana on the other hand is amazing until it comes to shooting 😩
I know it's obvious, but 83 goals in 341 senior games for Andy Carroll should have got an honourable mention IMO. Plus Danny Welbeck, whose 55 in 267 club games, but 16 in 42 full internationals is a bizarre record. It was always going to be Morata, though. Always.
I suggest anyone to look for Morata miss compilations for a bit of illustration of Alfie's point
Day 7: While most of us probably hate the idea, in the endless pursuit of capital a European-wide league system will most likely be in place before 2050 either with the help of national FAs, UEFA, and FIFA or not. You could either have a look at ways to prevent that or think of a league system that could potentially work.
Gabi Jesus is Man City's fifth all time premier league top scorer, more than Mahrez or De Bruyne and he mainly plays out wide. Saying he wasn't developed properly by Pep is a lazy assessment imo as Pep tends to find the position where the player is most comfortable and can help the team the most which for Jesus is wide because he's good in 1v1 situations and he's a good finisher as well. Since going to City his tactical awareness and game understanding has increased massively
Jesus was a very good goal scorer for Palmeiras.
90% of all Hull city strikers since 2010
XG is a new stat in football 😊
8 years doesn't feel new
adama should have been on the list,that's the player that confuses me more,he should have much more goals scored due to his speed,control of the ball and even shooting ability.
HOW THE HELL does Adama Traore only merit the briefest of mentions in this video!?!
1 goal in 12 games for Villa
5 in 71 for Boro'
11 in 154 for Wolves!
oh yeah and 0 in 2 for Barca so far {still wondering why Barca bought him even though as a Wolves fan I'm really glad he's finally stopped holding us back!}.
Power over precision is never good for goal scoring.
Kai Havertz is a midfield player. You would have included Zizu as well 😂😂😂
I absolutely would’ve mentioned Bobby Firmino if you hadn’t 😂👍
