Tottenham have secured the signing of Xavi Simons, and it’s a fascinating move for Thomas Frank’s side.

In this video, we look back at Xavi’s unique rise — from his young fame as the first real social media academy footballer, to carving out his own professional pathway and proving himself at the top level.

We break down his elite mentality, how he embraces responsibility on the pitch, and why his ball striking makes him such a consistent threat. Most importantly, we explore how he fits into Frank’s system as Spurs’ new No.10, and what his arrival could mean for the team’s creativity going forward.

  1. I've seen a lot of clips of Simons making passes forward at speed and in transition, but haven't seen footage of him making those "lockpick" passes against a tighter defense. Do you think he has that capability and we haven't seen it yet because of the nature of the bundesliga or it is an area of growth for him?

  2. Think Johnson is going to really benefit from Simons' play. We are going to see a lot of defenders drawn to him and even more moments of thru balls to Johnson running out to in

  3. I feel like BJ's tendency to drift more towards the touchline will give him a lot of freedom in that left side of the field, hopefully hell make some progressive runs for him. Do you have an ideal LW we could sign that's still left?

  4. "I feel like my prayers have been answered."

    Mate, well said. I feel like Spurs fans just had this uncommon feeling of "wait, everything has worked out in our favor?!?"

  5. Hi! Lovely Soul Kish 😁😁😁🤗I’m a new subscriber on Your channel! I like Your thoughts on Our Amazing new signing!!
    I watched Him on a YouTube channel and He’s on another level!! He comes across as really strong against His opponents!! The nutmegs & His overall game is Wow!! 🤩🤩🤩💪🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👊🏻
    We are definitely Blessed right now to be Spurs fans!! I prayed & hoped too that We’d get Him!! It just shows You the power of Prayer & Hope 💫🙏🏻🕊💫
    Xavi Simmons isn’t only a brilliant ⚽️player, He seems like a really nice & humble guy!! He’s going to fit in really well with everyone at Our ⚽️club!! I’m sure that Micky VDV will look out for Him 👍🏻👍🏻
    I’m really looking forward to watching Him(Xavi) play for Us!!
    I was going to suggest something to You to help build Your channel, it might be a good idea to speak on Chris Cowlin’s YouTube channel!! I follow Him and He always says that other Spurs Fan channels are welcome to talk on His channel! I’m sure that You’ve heard of Him because He goes on Sky Sports when We’re in Europe!! He’s a really nice guy!! Anyways, it’s just a thought & may be of help to You!!
    Enjoy watching Our new signing & COYS & Up The Spurs!!! ⚪️🌑⚪️🌑⚪️🌑
    Sorry for the essay 😆😆😆

  6. He's the replacement for Eriksen.

    Long overdue.

    Maddison will be on the bench for many game.
    And I think Richalison will be a completely new player with Xavi Simons in the team.

    COYS

  7. From the US. Been a Spurs' fan for 15 years and will die that way. This is THE most exciting signing we have made in my time as a fan. It's signing Modric or Bale instead of selling them. It is signing prime KDB, Kroos, or Bellingham. I am shocked that my club has decided to act like a BIG 6 club and sign such an amazing player. Tottenham till they kill me! COYS!!

  8. I'm a little worried with him drifting out left and cutting inside on to his right that we have a left flank that basically all do that same thing currently. Udogie being able to overlap will become key with Simons I think

  9. For me the exciting thing is that we can play that incredibly robust midfield of Sarr, Bentancur and Palhinha to shut down any team in the world in my opinion, then with Xavi on the left given some freedom to come inside and create we finally have players that can control games and constantly threaten the goal on both wings.

    I love Spence against teams that are going to trouble our left side, but I don't think people appreciate what Udogie can do pushing up high and wide… He would get about 8 G/A a season for Udinese in the bottom half of Serie A as a teenager, and pairing him up with Xavi on the left is mouth watering!

    When Kulusevski comes back it's going to be crazy exciting! I genuinely think we've assembled a team that can solve so many problems.

  10. Feels strange we've made such a big signing. We've had big names who didn't come in as a big name but developed into one, but the fact we've signed this calibre of player. Everyone else does it, feels nice we've finally joined in and done it. And great analysis of him, feel this video could have been much longer with how much you'd have to say
