Sid lowe the definition of " spainish football expert". He knows 🇪🇸 ball like no other
🤡
Considering he lives
And works in Spain it's kind of expected
he has an opinion like everyone else. his opinions are not infallible.
@@abody499 He's well measured, fair and passionate. An excellent journalist.
@@TORRES999ify Well, why don't you move to Spain and get paid to be a football journalist then - easy.
I’ve read hundreds of Sid’s pieces, but never heard him speak before. Why don’t people get him on stuff like this more? He’s brilliant.
He features on the Guardian’s “Football Weekly” whenever it’s about Spanish football…
i think he's a correspondence at ESPN; shame since they haven't got the deserved audience. but then again, some of those ESPN pundits are horrendous
listen to The Spanish Football Podcast you can hear him there every week
I listen to him in couple of podcasts. Great insights. He needs someone subtler than him to create a chemisty, as he speaks continously. His way of delivering does not work in short format shows, he needs time and space.
He's featured on the Guardian Football weekly podcast for years now and it was nice to see him talk rather than just listen to him.
From Spsin, I can tell Sid Lowe is the best pundit in Spanish football
It is so refreshing to hear people who know stuff. They don't need to tell you "Oh, I am an expert in Spanish football". You hear them talk and you KNOW they are an expert in Spanish football.
Brilliant insight into the Spanish national team and football culture by Sid, Gary Lineker a legend player in Spain… best
By "Spanish football expert" if you mean a person who never fails to push Franco FC/VARdrid's agenda, being biased against teams of the autonomous regions, being harsh on Athletic Bilbao even though he is well aware of its uniqueness given the Basque club was bigger than VARdrid until fascist Franco and King's patronage, being very careful and not uttering a word on the soft loans by Spanish banks and bail out money from Spanish Royal family to VARdrid to keep the overspending club afloat as it has keep buying stars given its academy isnt that good?? yes then you can call him that lol
@@martin5924YOU are full of BOLLEX AMIGO 😅
Here in Spain we love you Sid, specially the Oviedistas. Great guy
I perfectly remember Luis de La Fuente as a player. He won 2 spanish leagues with Athletic which is quite an achievement
Being Spanish and loving football, I go over a lot of content about spanish football pretty much daily. Sid is if not the best, one of the best to read and listen to.
Mate this dude is class. Knows Spanish ball and speaks with such eloquence. This podcast has been releasing bangers.
Spanish ball?
By "Spanish football expert" if you mean a person who never fails to push Franco FC/VARdrid's agenda, being biased against teams of the autonomous regions, being harsh on Athletic Bilbao even though he is well aware of its uniqueness given the Basque club was bigger than VARdrid until fascist Franco and King's patronage, being very careful and not uttering a word on the soft loans by Spanish banks and bail out money from Spanish Royal family to VARdrid to keep the overspending club afloat as it has keep buying stars given its academy isnt that good?? yes then you can call him that lol
@@martin5924 Pretty unhinged that. Especially considering his Spanish team is Oviedo. And they did a whole pod a few months back waxing lyrical on Athletic and talking to several people within the club.
But keep living your strange alternate reality. 👍
@@cazche270
Franco didn’t support Real Madrid in any way at all. So clearly you are the biased “fan” right here…
Man, Sid Lowe is very knowledgeable on Spanish football. I sometimes think he's a fellow Spaniard. Great to have him involved with Real Oviedo
That’s his job!
@@McNeish 😂😂
About Olmo. Watch the goal against Brazil few months back, he always pulls magic out of his hat
Imagina que lo hace Messi, estamos hablando de ello un año y se lleva el balón de oro.
It's an absolute joy to watch and listen to Gary and Sid. They are miles away from other football pundits. Thank you for a great analysis
This Spanish team have been with their coach since 15/16 yrs old. He won major trophies at under 19s, under 21s and the nations league. Literally raised them, the understanding is far beyond Southgate's.
@@nimascolari1508 I been saying this but the English are too arrogant to understand to read up about de la fuente I know all about him way before he became Spain manager this is his team and his people he trained he trusts them unlike Southgate who don’t even know them and ain’t won anything 😂
And De la Fuente also reached the final in the Olimpic games Tournament in Tokio 2020. Spain lost again Brazil. It was ABSOLUTELY CRAZY, the match ended 3-3, but Brazil won in the extension😢😢😢
In Spain we're professional doubters and pessimists when it comes to our national football team. It even happened with the golden generation that won the three titles in a row. Lucky for us, our team believed and was totally keen about changing our beliefs.
Get Nico for an interview.
He lives up to everything Sid said. Brilliant bloke.
Sid Lowe loves wearing his lanyard to make sure everyone knows he should be there.
So they know where to send him when they find him
Gary is really a football fan. No matter what he got the guts to interview the Spanish man.
Why would you need guts to interview someone who knows what they're talking about?
@@SimonFlynn-un1ur Oh, because who wouldn’t love the thrill of potentially sounding clueless in front of an expert? It’s like an extreme sport for the mind.
@@nira678wtf are you on about 😂
@@KelzMon lol f**k it bro, England lost. Dis’s appointment
@@nira678 What a bizarre way of thinking, this being afraid of looking clueless business.
Garry Lineker your sense of fairness and game play since Leicester through too Tottenham has inspired me in your qualities as a decent human being ! ❤ H
He's a smarmy know-it-all.
Who do rate then? @@DannyBoy777777
The Youth Development System in Spain is second to none, Spanish Coaches are tactical and in LaLiga teams are comfortable in possession, they pride in technical ability, and it is one of the leagues that still promote a lot of player expression. The scary thing about this Spanish Team is that I have no doubt between now and World Cup 2016 they'll find some new Spanish Talent. Their Youth System is unbelievable. I always say that a league plays a part in how the national team plays. You can literally dip your hand in every LaLiga Club and Find a proper midfielder. It is just their style, their way, it is how they do things. Great from Sid on Spain.
Sid that was a masterpiece of football. Gracias por hablar del fútbol español como lo haces.
Wow, what a guy! Pleasure to listen him! Football knowledge and art of journalism 👍🏻
He is probably the most well informed English speaking journo on Spanish football!!
When you hear great reporters like Sid who do this work out of the passion for the game not just a post retirement side gig you seem to realise the gap between journalist and players who wannabe a journalist
sid is the epitome of an intelligent analyst
This is a fantastic interview. Enlightening to see another perspective to this game, and with so much history and depth too.
The Rest is Football has been an excellent addition to this Euros. Excited to see where the show goes from here.
Beautiful and truly well explained interview..Im Spanish and a football lover, follow premier and La liga especially, of course it has been an amazing Eurocup for us...and you definetely nailed it ..congrats for your great work!!
Sid is the absolute best
Ashamed to say I wasn’t aware of the Williams brothers story till this interview. What an inspiration.
Spanish Golden Generation is coming OMG they have another youngsters ready for the Olympics Games
Spanish golden generation already happened lol they won 3 tournaments in a row
This team won’t win a World Cup
@@phiIiptx won’t they? They won the nations league last year and now in the final of euros and will be in the final of World Cup mark my words on that this comment of yours is gonna age well go and read up about de la fuente he raised this squad from 19 years old unlike Gareth Southgate he’s won 21 championships under 19s under 21s and under 23s with this exact team unlike Southgate who ain’t won nothing 😂 go and read up before you are quick to comment as clearly you are very deluded
Not sure I want to watch a Spanish hype video the day before the final…I’m already worried enough!
they are winning tomorrow!
@@mk22vids37I think either England’s name is on the trophy…or it’s one game too far for us, and we’ll get hammered 4-1 or something
@GIBBO4182 so you're saying England will either win, or they will lose?
@@AshHayes-qh1kei think we’ll scrape a win, or get hammered…I forgot it was CZcams, and there’s always one pr1cc
@@AshHayes-qh1kebig if true
The Williams brothers are set to be the most successful iteration since the other Williams brothers Venus and Serena.
@@phiIiptx maybe Venus, But Serena’s amazing
Desde España. Los dos nacieron aquí. Uno elige jugar con España y el otro con ghana
@@javierlorenzomartinez2330birth in Spain doesn’t matter since citizenship is not bestowed on that basis. But you are better off saying they were born and lived their entire lives in Spain. I think Inaki wanted to play for Spain but never got the call. So he accepted Ghana’s offer.
@@HusseinDohawhys he playing for ghana if hes spanish? 😂
The first Spain game I watched all year was the win against Italy in the group stage. What I found most striking wasn't the quality with the ball (was never lost since the mid 2000s), and the newfound tactical variety that has proven so difficult to defend against
It was the attitude. Here there were, a team full of little known players, some really young as discussed, playing the finals of a major tournament, and they had *zero* respect to show for this Italy that were title defenders. That pattern would repeat itself in the other games, except perhaps that second half against Germany. That lack of self-awareness, and blatant disregard for the ghosts of the past, was what told me then that they well may make it big this time. I wasn't disappointed.
Always enjoyed Sid Lowe's pieces on Spanish football, glad you guys got him on!
Gran periodista Sid,un auténtico conocedor del fútbol español
Sid knows his onions. Top pundit
A delightful conversation about the Spanish team. I wasn't familiar with Mr Lowe but came away extremely well informed. Very eloquent and great observations. And Gary is great anyway! Greetings from Germany
Wouu guys! I do not write coments very often but this is the best sports journalism I have seen in a very long time. Your honesty impartiality, respectfulness, profesional as well as warm analysis. I found it unique!
I always love listening to Sid Lowe
Sid Lowe, I doft my cap to you sir.
Brilliantly insightful 👏
It does not matter one jot what happens tomorrow..Spain is back internationally for the next 10-12 years..
Exactly, especially considering this coach has raised them and won a lot with them. He's built a solid foundation.
I don't think they ever really went away. They were penalties away from being in the final in 2021
On football matters I agree with so much of what Gary says and he’s likeable
Been waiting for this since this morning lol...
C'mon England!
Yamal & William 🇪🇦⚽🔥💥🌋👍
Rodri will definitely score always in finals or big games
.for me, they not only win in football, but also in the behavior of their fans.
...both when they lose and when they win...❤
Sid is the best... great seeing him in conversation with Gary
The Giardian sports reporter is just so well informed ... Credit where its due ❤ H
*Amazing video, you work for 4Oyrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires*
Hello, I am very interested. As you know, there are tons of investments out there and without solid knowledge, I can't decide what is best. Can you explain further how you invest and earn?
Same, I operate a wide- range of Investments with help from My Financial Adviser. My advice is to get a professional who will help you, plan and enhance your management skills. For the record, working with Barry Silbert, has been an amazing experience.
Hello how do you make such monthly?? I'm a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down🤦🏽of myself because of low finance but I still believe in God
I'm favoured, $90K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America,, all thanks to Mr Barry Silbert
Good day all👍🏻from Australia 🇦🇺 I have read a lot of posts that people are very happy with the financial guidance he is giving them! What way can I get to him exactly ?
This is going to be good
Yess what a colab! Been a long time follower of Sid thanks to espn, love this
Legends. Could listen to yhem all day.
Sir Gary ... I watched you during your World Cup, and that was a England team I can get behind. Can't say that today. Totally unadventurous. Just because the EPL is undeniably high-caliber, that doesn't automatically translate into a truly formidable England. The EPL has tons of foreign players, might be one reason. I agree the immediate future belongs to the Spanish.
I'm from Spain. Spain is a strong team but in these tournments where all depends on 1 match, you're in or out, you never know who's gonna win. You can have a strong team and a bad day, bad luck, etc and you are out... Argentina, Brazil, Spain, Germany and France will be the main favourites for next World Cup.
excellence in journalism!! i'm amazed by this guy 😃 congrats from 🇪🇦
Great interview!
This perspective from an Anglo-Spaniard journalist helps put tomorrow's finals into reality... a bit demoralising for us English fans tho😢
It’s all about the Spanish everywhere I’m just so proud to be Spanish and in Madrid now I been here since the group stages and loving it the weather the ac and my pool in my house here every news is all over Spain even espn because Spain have changed the way football is played and showing how it should be England invented football yet the Spanish dominate it I would rather hear about Spain then England there really isn’t anything exciting to talk about them really
Yes there is. For example the young players they have. Saka Bellingham Mainoo and Wharton for example
Really insightful and well explained look at the Spanish evolution and viewpoint 👌
Extraordinary interview. Thank you
Good to put a face to the name finally lol
Excellent guest, that was wonderful from you to invite him!
the eloquence...amazing
Sid's awesome on ESPN,
Fantastic conversation! thx!!
Muy buen análisis de la selección y el seleccionador. Bastante objetivo y certero en las reflexiones. Tenemos selección para años.
3 🦁 Prayers will bring it home to the UK as it did 4 Messi & Argentina
Trippier can’t start tomorrow, Yamal will tear him to shreds. Shaw must start.
So Yamal will tear him to shreads instead.
@@pablocortando1nah it’s less of a concern with Shaw as he’s better defensively than Trippier
Even Gvardiol couldn't keep yamal silent.
So forget anyone else
@@pablocortando1 Shaw is a very typical Englishman, and he will probably rip through Yamal at some point - tearing him in two. Well, we are all pirates after all.
He will smoke the pair of them 😂
Sid is a joy to read and listen to
I love it when you get esteemed journos on (sid, Winters)... Maybe a certain Tim Vickery next for his insights on South American football and society
Football with wingers is more interesting.
Remember Sid from the Real Madrid Channel about 15 years ago
What about Frederick Homel, Dan Thomas...
What an era!
@@HSVIRK is Dan the guy on ESPN? I remember him too
@@mrbeatwave7021 yeah, used to present in Real Madrid TV....
If in the distant future someone writes an encyclopedia that compiles all football experience and knowledge, Gary Lineker would be included in it as the prototype of a specific type of center forward. In such a way that some goals could be classified as Gary Lineker goals, among them Oyarzabal's goal in the Euro 2024 final. Greetings from Spain.
Sid is the best football correspondent in the world. Full stop.
Sid always on point!!😊
Been saying for agesssssss how good Rodri is. As soon as he came into that city team there was a shift on ohhh ok they’re now as good or better than European teams. He’s definitely in for a shout for ballon dor. He’s honestly one of the best players.
Amazing family story taken from a fairy tale: The Williams Bros.
Spain spanking us would be the best thing for football and we can rid ourselves of the cult of Southgate and Southgateball too. I know most English people will want us to get the win somehow but we don’t deserve it and have zero style of play or identity going forward. Luck and magic moments have got us here.
Thanks for being honest about you country 🙏 at least one English person speaks the truth Spain deserve it England don’t
Yeah get Capello back you fool. We have never been so good under Southgate
nice idea to bring sid ..
All I hope is that we don’t get hammered like Italy did back in the 2012 final.
Olmo is a really, really, great player, who can make a difference on the pitch. The only problem he has is that he is injured a lot. I hope he does not join (my club) Bayern, but instead returns to spain. It may sound funny or ridiculous: but warm weather maby could help him to stay more healthy. Muscles like it warm..
Gary gets an interview with Sid Lowe for The Grauniad, and Sid gets a video spot with Gary for TRIF.
Dani Olmo worries me ..Hes been absolute class in the tournament.
Glad Seb mentioned the point ‘judging them by what they could be’ because I cannot think of a single player ever that met their expectations from 18 let alone 16.
They either under achieve or exceed, growth is never linear to age (arbitrary age that we came up with is not how biology works). Prime example was Pablo Aimer, at 18 he was better than Messi.
It’s amazing how us English belittle players who don’t play in the premier league. Spain are so much better than us!
We over hype all our players!
You sir are a legend for saying what other English people won’t say! That is the truth you have over rated players who are useless they are worth so much so English teams say putting a high price tag to con other clubs but they ere worthless not worth the paper it’s written on Spain players ain’t worth much but they perform hence why clubs don’t like to get rid of them once they got them as they are worth the price all day long
Yeah this is partially true. But english people won't hear of it because the PL is the be all and end all
@@BMWDoctorSpanish players are so good Real Madrid don’t field any
@@phiIiptx have you seen La liga ? They don’t need to move to Real Madrid athletico is as good as Real Madrid and so is Villarreal and bilbao Real Madrid is only hyped for English in Spain you play for La liga enough said la liga is not the same as premier league let’s not get it twisted we have carvajal from Madrid and nacho who was Real Madrid captain let’s not forget that oh yeah and Rodri Man City captain 😂 who do England have Harry Kane and Bellingham who Real Madrid want rid of after this performance in the euros the Spanish media have been slaughtering him to the point I doubt he wants to come back to Spain his mum is fearful of his return.
Your true English people spoke the truth above 👆
@@BMWDoctor yeah, Bellingham is fearful of going back to Madrid, absolutely delusional comment.
Nacho is off to Saudi now. Madrid only have 1 Spanish player. Barca and the rest have been irrelevant in the champions league for the best part of a decade
Fantastic..Sid was brilliant 👏
Wow William brothers have interesting stories
The Spanish don’t know as much about Spanish football as Sid does,walking encyclopaedia on it,another episode of TRIF that is brilliant
👏👏💥💥❤️❤️
That's so spot on! (A Spanish fan here)
Im all for admiring young talant. And they are performing at the highest level. But pressure and time can ravage young talent. Ive seen players burn out like Dele Ali and ive seen players not reach the heights we expect from them. It'll be a hard feat to be at the top of your game from 16 to 32.
great episode
England probably do have more left in the tank as they’ve done very little in games as Spain have had big challenges to overcome.
I would argue to opposite. England will have had 24 hours less rest from the last game. They’ve been to extra time more times. Spain rested the whole team in the 3rd group match
ohhhhh theres the funny wall thing Sid was on about in the #TSFP pod lol 🤣🤣 great chat there Sid is the best on Spanish football 🏆..... bring it on !!!
Los eauipos favoritos para todos los periodis5as fueron los equipos clasicos, que burren con su futbol, juegan al fallo del contrario, a defender, a marcar y echa4se atras, a empa5ar y esperar a que acabe el partido y comience la prorroga. Hubo varias selecciones de segundo orden como austria, incluso georgia que plantearon un futbol muy atractivo
I'm less than 2 minutes into this episode and I must say that at the beginning of the tournament before a ⚽ had been kicked in conversations with 4/5 of my mates whom I respect the most when talking ⚽ I was the only one that tipped SPAIN to go all the way (England 2nd) and it's because of the squad they have that have come through a lot of the age group tournaments together with success! But I 🤔 England can and will do it tomorrow, COME ON BOYS the entire country is salivating at the prospect of WINNING!
be confident brave and ENJOY IT
Rodri is a future great manager, you can see it already
Excellent professional. Respect
Honestly England win on penalties or get hammered something like 4 - 1.
No in between
Also Rodri since January 2022, he has been by far the best player in world.
I think EXACTLY the same mate! Even said 4-1!!! 😂😂
@@GIBBO4182yep if England can stink it out to penalties then congratulations, if not they get battered.
@@GIBBO4182especially because England has a larger squad and all are better penalty takers than Spain.
@@Don-Royallbut this Spain team won penalty’s against Croatia in 2023 in the nations league 😂 I think your all missing that one England ain’t the only great penalty takers Spain have come up and above with penalty’s mark my words
Spot on since that last minute winner at the emirates vs Arsenal Rodri has been spectacular
Sid Lowe is awesome!
Finally football and strategics is played by the players so a team has to adapt the strategic to the players that you have on every moment... having posession worked for the 2008 generation because we had the best midfielders in the world (iniesta, xavi, silva, cesc, Busquet, Xabi Alonso, Cazorla...) but once they were gone it is impossible to intend playing in the same way, this is why HIerro and Luis Enrique failed as managers, they tried to play in the same way with not so talented players. For Spain possesion is important still but they have been able to adapt this philosophy to the most talented players in the country.
Sid is our favorite Englishman here at Real Oviedo
It’s the performance in the second half and crucial subs from Gareth if England are to have any chance. Oh and for Harry Kane to magically get on form.
But there’s also a hell lot of belief and anything can happen on the pitch 🙌 Hope it’s a cracking game and not a 4-1 thrashing from Spain 😅
Sid is so good coz he is a historian first and football expert second.
Better analisys than spanish media!
.for me, Spain went from a mobile and fast Tiki-taka to a "game control" tiki-taka.....
.. and now, they improved it by adding more "speed" and attacking play, but without forgetting the "tiki taka", because most of their "goals" are by equal combination +10goals, and for me that is what tiki is about -taka.
