Alasdair Gold has insisted he wants to see Oliver Skipp and Yves Bissouma start and get more minutes in their natural positions for Tottenham Hotspur.

Skipp burst onto her scene last season with Spurs under both Nuno Espirito Santo and Conte but saw his season pretty much cut short by an injury that just refused to go away and this season hasn’t been much better with just two league starts to his name.

Wouldn’t mind Skipp and Bissouma pairing if Bents isn’t fit against Brentford. Would be a very mobile and combative midfield for a tough away game

Alistair Gold is like the male version of Vanessa Feltz. Drama drama drama....Sorry, but how arrogant do you have to be to print this crap, like you're actually fit to lick Contes boots?

Bentancur is suspended isn't he?
But I agree about Skipp and Bissouma starting this game

Oh yeah of course he is. Yeah I just think with how Brentford play at pace having two very athletic CM’s who are both good on the ball under pressure would be a good fit for this particular match

Blimey, that's a bit over the top, isn't it?

He's just a journo filling in some time before the footie restarts and it's hardly something that hasn't been said by many on here. Plenty of us want to see more of Bissouma and Skipp.

Massive overreaction to such a small thing.
It's not arrogance, nor is it drama, it's just a Spurs fan writing a piece about Spurs.

Also, while I'm not a massive fan of much of his writing, Aly Gold is in no way a drama-fiend. He's incredibly laid back.

Yeah, Football London can be a bit click baity and post articles just for the sake of it, to fill a space as such but that's just the way of internet news.

Ally is far from a drama queen, nor is he arrogant. That reply above feels like someone has a personal issue more than anything else

Just need to watch Ally's YouTube videos to know he's not in the least bit arrogant.

You do realise this article is not from him or his website.

Whether he said it or not I have to agree with the headline. I actually even forgot we have Bissouma as I read the title, thats how little he's played.

Gold is a parasite, neg rep your hearts out...
Couldn't agree more. How he has the brass kneck to print an article 'urging' one of the best managers in the game to play players he wants, like he's some sort of equal, is incredibly disrespectful.

Same guy that was signing shirts in Korea. He's not arrogant at all. Lovely guy.

He also didn’t write that headline. He was expressing an opinion in his podcast which is what every fan on here does.

Have you met him, spoken with him, or interacted with him in any way?
Or are you making a nasty, shitty statement based on nothing more than a few articles?

FFS, state of people on the internet and their desire to state spiteful, unfounded bile.

Probably Gooners. Certainly act like it.
