- A question, could Atalanta be the next giant in Italian football? Thanks to BT Sport and Serie A I had a long weekend in Italy which saw me experience a top of the table clash as Atalanta took on Napoli.
BT Sport is the exclusive home of Italy’s Serie A in the UK and Ireland, broadcasting several live matches every week.

The Serie A is really underrated. It is very competitive and very close between the top 8 teams.
It is indeed, looking at the gap since filming this Napoli look like they could go on and win it but the best of the rest is very much up for grabs
I don’t think that is underrated, obviously serie a is not at his best at the moment, but one time was the most difficult and important league, even more than la liga or premier, as ronaldo says in an interview with inter
I'm Italian, and I ensure you that it's not. Napoli is the only good team among the the big teams right now. Juve is weak af and still somehow got to the 4th position, without considering small teams that are serie b level (no joke), slow rythm, no skills nor tactics, when I watch la Liga or Premier I see many good times even in low positions. cremonese, Sampdoria, Verona, lecce, spezia, salernitana, Empoli they all deserve to get relegated instead, every year, teams don't thanks to other bad teams who barely reach 20 points at the end of the year
@@GianmarcoFabbriciani thats straight up wrong lmao the lowest point total ever was salernitana with 31, who have also invested well in their squad this summer and are looking really solid. Inter, Milan and Napoli are all solid champions league squads, and juve are looking really good in the past month, lazio are a bit inconsistent but also are lethal on their day, the fact that good squads like sassuolo and fiorentina are struggling shows just how competitive the league is. Theres also teams like Roma and Atalanta that have the potential to compete for titles in the future and some great pieces. Just because you are Italian does not mean you have any clue what you are talking about. Serie A is literally the 2nd most invested in league behind the prem in both wages and transfer fees. There's no way your delusional ass thinks teams like Almeria and Cadiz who play some of the worst, most ugly to watch football are better than fun teams like Empoli and Cremonese who focus on pushing through youth and giving bigger teams a tough time (not to mention they also have much higher quality players than their laliga counterparts, not an opinion, laliga teams outside their big 3 haven't been able to spend money on transfers for years)
Look at the remuntada of Juve
I’m from the US and watch Serie A games every weekend. By far my favorite league.
It’s great eh!
I was at the Atalanta game smiv, class club on the rise! Well worth the trip for anyone from England who loves there footie 🇮🇹
Love that Jon!
Nice to hear this...as an Atalanta supporter (before moving to Sweden) I lived exactly in the house behind Curva Nord and I was there for every home match. Adoss!
Il mio sogno 🖤💙
I love Italy, one of my favourite countries in the world. Great vlog once more Smiv
Agreed! The 90’s made me fall in love with Italy!
Ok, this was epic, can't wait for other cooperations with BT Sport and trips to other countries they cover. Great video
That’ll be nice!
Growing up one of the top footballers of Sweden moved to Atalanta and became a legend at the club, Glenn Strömberg. And even though they didnt become a favourite team, I mean how could they - he played for the wrong club here in Sweden - I've kept an eye on the club and it's great to see how they have started to establish themselves as a proper top club in Italy. Great video Smiv.
yes...he is a big thing in Bergamo...where I come from...but actually living in Sweden...anyway as an Atalanta supporter Glenn is still The Captain...very nice guy btw. I have met him sometimes in Bergamo.
Mad how you’ve posted this, Atalanta are my Italian team, love watching them over the last few years on BT. Desperate to get to Bergamo to soak up the atmosphere myself 🔥
You absolutely do!
Atalanta have been my fav Italian team for a long time (2011 I think) because I liked their logo on fifa 😂. They are awesome!
They play the best football of Serie A. Gasperini is a master
That looks like a class experience!
It certainly was!
Great Video Smiv, Atmosphere gets a 5 star, looks like a great place to visit.
Loved it, it's great when a 'proper' football fan get's such a trip. It's sad they couldn't have extended the invitation to Charlie, breaking up the gang
Priestfield Road end at Gillingham? Oh, Smiv! It’s the Brian Moore Stand at Priestfield! 😁
That looks much nicer though here!
Went to Venezia end of last Season. Only ground ive ever been to where you have to get there by water taxi. Great fun.
Love that, need to check that out for sure!
Brilliant video dude...Just came across this channel. You got yourself a new sub !!! ⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽
Wow, the ground has changed dramatically from when I last went (2007). Upper Bergamo is a great place.
Isn’t it just, so nice!
Absolutely amazing atmosphere
Wasn’t it just!
A lot of the newer stadiums have the blend of grass and Astro, West Ham included. Believe it’s a 90/10 mix
Great video 👏🏻
Smiv is so good at advertising a club that I think Atlanta is now my second team😂😂😂
Love the content smiv
Thanks Sarah!
We play in Black and blue because first Atalanta was an athletics society with blue like prima color and the football team of Bergamo called Bergamasca Calcio had blue and White kit. In the years these 2 society combined in one called Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio with social colours Black and blue 🖤💙
what crazy people are telling you to slow down. your contents awesome. Emigrated to Australia and miss the football Dorking wanderers fan and you videos bring it all back. keep them coming
Ah I was playing dumb, they say I talk to fast lol
mate if you live near an A league club go watch them
In Darwin nothing here with same buzz as uk
@@deanwilson4141 fair enough
You gotta come back and do a proper on the road here smiv looks class
Ah I’d love to!
Fab video...Italy is a dream destination. Be nice if BT Sport offered this sort if stuff once in a while to their subscribing customers :)
The vloggers game is heading for that glass ceiling....unless Thogden or Ellis get a VIP trip to the first Super League game played on the moon!
I’ll pass that suggestion onto them for sure! To be clear though Ellis and I have the same stance, we’d never take tickets in place of genuine fans. This allocation would have been available via BT Sport and as you saw wasn’t in the fan sections.
It’s the reason you’ll never see me at derby marches or generally big games as I feel it’s the fans that deserve it first. Once it hits general sale it’s fair game but games of that stature rarely get to that stage. Either way, glad you enjoy the video my man 👌
Fell in love with all this free stuff 😂
Atalanta have done well last few years
Hope you can attend a kingstonian home match this season
They do raffles and do announce them at half time :)
For real? That’s all we ask as raffle participants!
@@smivadee yes, you should attend a kingstonian home match for OTR on the road series :)
the gills link smiv. love it. great video as allways
Great video!
Great vlog sir!
Thank you my friend!
Seems like hybrid turf is going to be the future of sports surfaces, the mix of real and artificial grass is a pretty interesting innovation.
i'm an atalanta fan, and Finally somone caring about my club
you should do an on the road at lower morden athletic at some point
I’ll look into it!
Serie A is so underrated, sure the teams aren't at the height they were in the 2000s but they are rebuilding.
The reason why it's so underrated tho is because it's probably the best Football you'll see. Italian Tifosi are always brilliant, even when you just watch from TV. The league is the most competitive in the world, Nowhere else do you have 4-6 teams fighting for the Top, sometimes even until April. Serie A makes a good League because it gives you the best of what football is all about. Fans, Competitiveness and pure joy
Greetings from Australia hopefully you can come down under and watch a Sydney Derby
That would be superb!
Smiv love the vid mate..thoughts on not signing Kim Min Jae even though Spurs were his #1 destination and Conte & Patrici wanting Khiva but Levy bought Spence instead 😂 (which is why he doesn’t play as far as rumours go lol)
It’s a strange situation for sure! I like how cut throat Conte is but at the same time feel for Spence, I think there’s times he couldn’t have easily played instead of a couple of 2 minute cameos
@@smivadee True man..him and Bryan Gil gotta use it as character development I guess..also consider the Soweto derby in South Africa (Kaiser Chiefs vs Pirates) it will shock you how good the vibe is..thanks for all the great content man 👍🏿
Love the first of on the road aboard
Great video breath of fresh air
Thanks Russell!
The success of Atalanta is the trainer/manager Gianpiero Gasperini, one of the best!!!
Never been to Italy but might just go for Atalanta alone 😍
Get involved!
Atalanta should be doing well with billionaire Stephen Pagliuca a private equity investor and co-chairman of Bain Capitol that also co-owns the Boston Celtics and is the majority shareholder at Atalanta who has £160bil of assets to his name, twice that of Man City owner. The guy is the favourite to take over at Liverpool. It wouldn't surprise people if Atalanta dominates Italian football at some point in the future.
It will never happen, and I mean the "dominate" part, I grew up less than 1 km from the Azzurri d'Italia (now Gewiss), Pagliuca brought in indeed a lot of investments, but the city is small and very close to Milan, there simply isn't a big enough pool of people to maintain it at the top level for years.
Even now that they are doing great half of my friends are for Inter, Milan or Juve and again population is a factor Bergamo is roughly 120k people.
Sulla strada! Sì, di nuovo. (On the road! Yep, back again.)
Weyhey!
class dmiv
Nice one Dinley! 🙌
The only issue with going to Italy to watch a game is finding someone to drag me out of whatever restaurant I stumbled in to 3 hours before. I do have to say, I don't get the large flag waving (doesn't it block the game?) and the flares ( blinded by the light and smoke inhalation) but fair play, seems to be an accepted part of the Italian game and of course waving a bigass flag around for 90 minutes means you work up an appetite for more food !
And this is what matters ultimately, food, when food, when more food? 🙌
@@smivadee Darn right, if you're ever going to Florence let me know, I know the owners of a place that is amazing.
Great video. Next to the PL I prefer Serie A for sheer entertainment. Yes, it's nowhere near as boring as it used to be.
Spot on, it seems to have come on leaps and bounds recently!
It never was boring. Its money that the premier league has which serie A doesn't which has meant serie A clubs have to buy youngsters and coach them to then sell on.
@@Micfri300 I thought it was quite boring in the 80's and part of the 90's when one goal often was enough to win games. So for the neutral viewer it wasn't great unless you're really into the tactical side of the game, or you are like Gianni Brera, who thought that the perfect game had no goals in it (no goals = no mistakes made).
@@WhiteHartDane the 80s and 90s serie A was levels above present day premier league. Football should be about superior technical/tactical quality winning out over physical qualities. Whilst gegenpress is exciting to watch i honestly prefer players like Ronaldinho deco snejider etc essentially the no10 which in current football has become nonexistent because they are seen to be lazy off the ball.
@@Micfri300 I know, and I also agree. There was just not many goals in the games back then.
Here’s hoping one of those lads don’t end up at Utd for £120m! That’ll be their careers ruined if so!
And great result for Napoli, get in there!
You might be right! 😂
Were did you get the retro italian jersey mate?
Intersport in 1996 😂
@@smivadee 🤣 I think i'll grab mine off DH Gate, its a beaut! good content mate!
Here I am once again asking Smiv to go to Wealdstone
Looks like he got some penne alla vodka 9:53
The Speed of the video hurts me but great job
Definitely wanna go to the Italian footie FOOTBALL!!!
It’s great! Food and football both top notch
@@smivadee I'm hoping I can go to the milan vs spurs 🤞🏻
FORZA SMIV!!!!!
Forza Andreina!!
Mate of mine went Roma v napoli only a few weeks ago he was trying to explain the atmosphere think I no now watching this
Yeah it’s spot on!
Some say Ledley built that hotel floor 😂
Oh he absolutely did!
Fai cup final Sunday smiv plenty of cheap tickets you should really check it out
Nice Video 👍
Thanks Harry!
Locatelli spent most of his formative years at Milan's academy
Man you have to come to Florence for a Fiorentina match
I’d love to!
It is called the Gordon Road stand
You know what I mean, crap stand, no roof located on Preistfield Road
"Lovely"
😌
Beautiful stadium with such history, leave it to the Italians to get that right
Absolutely!
EPIC!!!
Thanks Jethro!
@@smivadee you are welcome Smiv!!! Please visit Welwyn Garden City, Bradford City, Oxford City, Hitchin Town, Coalville Town, Hemel Hempstead Town, Hertford Town and many more grounds to name a few!
Enjoy!
It's Brian Moore Stand in Gillingham actually
I wouldn’t worry about it
@@smivadee best stand in the football league; character
Where is Dr. PEPPER?!
Smiv, basically every top league team has a hybrid pitch 👍
Not true, Grimsby is definitely pure grass
@@smivadee I’ll give you that one
You should have asked congerton why on earth he signed vestergaard and Bertrand for Leicester
I absolutely should have!
I was this game I saw you in the lounge
Weyhey! Great pasta eh!
I had to check twice that I wasn’t watching on x2 speed
They're telling you to slow down? Obviously, they need to listen faster.
Are they the next giants? Well, if you have followed this a bit then you know that they were top class all the sudden, but came down to earth a bit last years.
For sure, something happened in 2016/17, a sudden improvement in Serie A finish and it’s been on the up ever since!
No, they aren't.
In Italy, every once in a while, a tier 2/3 team rises from the ranks for some time, has good results and placements, produces good talents that goes to tier 1 teams, maybe wins some trophy (less likely to happen) but then they return back to the ranks of tier 2/3 teams, if not less.
Harry IS a fast runner but fluctuates between 17th and 18th fastest in his year group.
Riddle me this!
🖤💙🖤💙🖤💙🖤💙
Bergamasco noma-nomade
Nothing wrong with supporting different clubs in different countries
Not at all, who’s your Italian club?
@@smivadee Fiorentina. Great culinary in Florence as well!
it is a good beard
Such a good beard!
Comme estè sounds like more french than italian to me. lol
That's what I thought, even Spanish, let's just blame Google Translate lol
ON THE ROAD YEP BACK AGAIN
Even though it’s not an episode of ON THE ROAAADD
Close!
Oh sh*t hi smiv Jesus Christ. MUM IM FAMOUS
Was the seat heated???
Great question, it wasn’t I’m afraid
Mark my words Smiv - American Equivalent is Philadelphia Union
Interesting! I’ll note that one down
This year:
Serie A > Premier League
The fact that i’ve been in the same hotel the first time i met my gf 😫
Someone explain to this guy that the gesture he makes and that many foreigners imitate, in Italy has a precise meaning and that doing it without sense like he does makes it decidedly ridiculous...
Someone’s triggered
@@smivadee
😂😂
Absolutely not, unfortunately this gesture is inflated and is very often used inappropriately without knowing its meaning. My intention is only to emphasize this aspect of the question.
Your intention has worked. I can change thumbnail to something more appropriate. What would you suggest?
@@smivadee
hi, thank you for your answer and for your patience and tolerance towards me. The gesture shown at the beginning of the video is wrong, because it has more the meaning of a request, a question, it means: "what are you saying?".
The correct gesture that has the meaning of "excellent food" and by extension any situation in which you want to indicate a wonderful thing of great quality, would be (in my opinion) to bring the hand in exactly that pose, almost touching the lips simulating a kiss, with a facial expression of wonder and ecstasy.
I know it seems complicated and unreasonable, but gestures (a much more widespread habit in southern Italy than in the rest of the country) have precise and codified meanings.
Sorry for the length and pedantry, I hope this explanation is useful to you.

Big W!
Atalanta in Bergamo Italy 🇮🇹
you should come to the maradona!
Clive? 🤣
Must have been him!
YOU TALK TOO FAST I HAD TO REWIND SOMETIMES, JUST TO KNOW WHAT YOU HAD SAID. THUMBS DOWN FOR ME.
Keep up!
Atalanta?
yeah Atalanta, they are one of the most racist football fans in italy, if not the most racist of them all
ODIO BERGAMOOOO, ODIO BERGAMOOOOOO
Take time and breathe...you speak like a man who is chased by a cheetah
How do you know I’m not?
Speaking too fast😳
Brooo Speak slowly
BERGAMASCO NOMA NOMADEEE
You talk too fast. Slow down please
Soooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry
If your dream is to buy a tractor, Atalanta is the club for you!
Let’s do it!

FORZA ATALANTA
Have you heard all the insults and racist choirs addressed to the people of Naples, too?
I don’t speak Italian so I wouldn’t understand. What I do understand is EVERY club has individuals that let a fanbase down.
