Lots of people were also forcibly displaced from their homes or kil.led directly because of the US and their chosen big-nosed people, in several countries, adding up to tens of millions.
Yeah everyone is focused on The Line but everyone is ignoring that they're planning on making a synthetic snow resort and they're planning on bidding for the 2034 Winter Olympic games
@@sm42941 like bringing up Israel or all the time when it’s not relevant, and pumping up Asia all the time when it’s not related. He can do as he likes and I watch his videos, I just think he spends half his time virtue signaling instead of discussing football.
You know, I wasn't sure if I would move to The Line™ or not, but now that Chris Smalling's said it's a cognitive city, I've made up my mind. I will see you in Saudi Arabia, gentlemen
I love that HITC Sevens and Zealand are on good terms. I swear peoples opinions on Alfie show something about people character. Every person that likes him I have been incredibly chill with but the one guy that didn't like him brought up that he doesn't believe in evolution UMPROMPTED 5 mins later (was in a twitch chat XD).
Everything he does when it comes to football purely is absolutely brilliantly made. However, when it comes to, you know, the shady and political aspect of football stuff that he does, I just feel that it is poorly researched and he views it from a biased perspective.
@@tariqomer4678 "he views it from a biased perspective" 1. Everyone is baised. 2. Whats your problem with his bias? That he support LGBT people? That he made a video about how nepotism has lead to racism? How big cooperations in football are cringe?
@@DGAMINGEN When the subject is looked at from an EXTREMELY biased perspective (perhaps I should have clarified that) it will lack credibility. No, not a single one of those you mentioned. The video he made on Fabrizio Romano is a prime example of that. Poorly researched, or at least, the aspects which gives a good defence of Fabrizio Romano is poorly researched (that's what I am refering to when I said "biased perspective" he looks at things from only one side. Not both sides). While also criticizing Romano for being in a sort of money game while ignoring the fact that he is part of that game himself. Some people have actually pointed that out to him How he continuously refers to workers rights in Qatar without mentioning that there has been 6 investigations regarding that. Including one by the FBI. Not defending Qatar, but wouldn't it be fair to at least mention that? Rather than parroting unverified numbers from The Guardian (which have provided false information before in order to push an agend) over and over. He lets his emotions and personal belief to get to him when doing these types of videos. Which makes me believe that these type of videos don't have enough credibility in order to take them seriously for me.
Not believing in evolution and also presenting content as researched and fact checked is a juxtaposition and a half. I'll watch some of his stuff and if I don't like something he makes I just don't watch it. The people going out of their way to hate on him make no sense though, just move on and touch grass.
Thank goodness I’m old enough to understand stuff like this is predatory and brainwashing material. I feel for teens and young kids who are more susceptible to this kind of stuff. That’s the scary part to me.
Fun fact about THE LINE, it’s already been shortened from the original plan… it might be because they realized it’s incredibly stupid but sunk cost fallacy tells them yolo pride > science and reason
For the world to be considered whole, 2 things need to happen. 1) A podcast/video series with Zealand, maqwell, HITCH Sevens, TomFM and Vizeh. 2) Zealand must go run today
@@Icarus07c You realise this is in lockstep with US interests here. The US (& UK) have arm^ed/funded & maintained the rule of the KSA monarchy for decades. Frankly I’m more irritated by our gov/state department policies here - and these footballers are technically furthering this, but they certainly aren’t against our gov’s values. The KSA (MBS atm) are one of our closest allies in the region. So, definitely part of our western “values” (you’ll be shocked when you find out what other groups we’ve funded/are funding in this region if you’re not aware of much of our foreign policy).
They get paid directly to do this for example Neymar gets a direct payment everytime he mentions Saudi Arabia in a post it’s in the tens of millions per post
Yeah but it's not like a giant mirror in the desert... look up the concept of "the line" it's bonkers, saw it a couple of years ago and I thought it was a joke.
Yikes. I'm a Roma fan, he did kind of get forced out of the squad as he's 34, but I think he still would have been good enough to go Dutch, Belgian, Turkish league or something (not sure he got any transfer offers though) and he could have retired with his dignitiy intact in a couple years
fifa needs to do something about gambling sponsors, overly inflated transfers and contracts, alcohol brands and a few other other things that these bottomless pocket wearers
Imagine living in a city. Just, any city. Why would you want to spend your life in a rat-infested, crime-riddled dystopia when you could just live in the middle of nowhere and not have to deal with any of that
Messi gets paid by them and he seems to get a pass….it either needs to be ok for all or not at all but ppl cherry-picking who isn’t allowed to take their money is bullshit
I mean for all we know that was part of the contract he signed…. If there are things about doing sponsorship agreements in his contract then he is just doing what he agreed to. Unfortunately for him the sponsorship is a joke but he is just collecting his bag. No foul on smalling imo.
Imagine that your dream is to become a professional footballer, you make it all the way there, and then you find yourself shilling for shit like that lol
Idk, when the tourism board of any community embarks on an advertising campaign, you wouldn’t call it a sportswashing campaign. There’s definitely an unconscious bias where anything Middle Eastern countries do is perceived as sinister or evil by people like Zealand or HITC. Also, Alfie is a hatemongering troll so I wouldn’t really describe him as “nice”
But won’t remember the millions of innocent civilians obliterated to smithereens by Western bombers over the decades. Only choosing to be empathetic when it’s an opportunity to hate on people like me and the fact that you called me Abdul in a derogatory way just shows the type of people eat this content up
Not just Muslims literally people who refuse western hegemony all over the world. You just proved my point too by showing your hatred and you’re not doing Zealand or HITC any favors with those bigoted views that no Muslim is innocent and they’re death cultists instead of just normal people
I don’t get why you’re making such a big deal about this. Saying that a player’s values and actions before going to Saudi Arabia were better than after joining is a weak argument. I also don’t understand the unnecessary hate towards everything Saudi Arabia does. He tweeted about promoting a brand, and if you’re not interested, that’s fine. Almost every famous person takes ad deals, and since he’s playing in Saudi Arabia, it makes sense he’d promote things happening there.
@Zealandism, I’ve always loved watching your videos, but thinking that everything Saudi Arabia does is just sportwashing and hating on it isn’t fair. European clubs and leagues do similar things with their players, and no one makes such a big deal out of it. It’s not cool to single out Saudi like that.
It was okay when the evil rich guys did sportswashing since the sports got professionalised it'a just not okay now that the evil rich guys happen to be brown
Yeah it’s like when Manchester United spends more money than anyone else, nobody sees anything wrong with it but when City tries to spend more, it’s an abomination. These guys just subconsciously hate the Middle East, even the way Zealand implies that anyone decent wouldn’t want anything to do with Saudi is pretty disgusting
I detest that HITC Sevens dude. Vocal radical leftists that introduces his ideology to his form of reasoning over whatever football topic he decides to talk about.
Hang on. Not a popular viewpoint. I dislike the Saudi state as much as thenext man. However, the statement "Saudis bending people to their will " (paraphrased) coming from an American? The irony isn't lost on me....I love your Z. But. Stones. Glass houses. As a lover of history let's not forget Vietnam. Their funding of guerilla groups in central and South America (in some cases toppling democratically elected governments in both regions regions to help install a more pro American administration) as well as Afghanistan in the 80s. Letting cocaine be run through America by said groups to fund their activities in the 80s as they launched their "just say no" campaign. Launching an illegal war in Iraq. And torture? Guantanamo Bay anyone? We know America love invading countries for oil. Yet they are strangely reticent to get involved in a war with Russia who have rivers of the stuff. I wonder why? We ll ignore the fact they shot their own president as he threatened to end the war in Vietnam. Too much money at stake. Let's also throw in the genocide of the Native Americans. O and let's also throw in slavery and apartheid like conditions in the South as recently as the 60s... I'm English. I'm fully aware of the atrocities committed by my own country in building the empire. In the 19th century. People need to look at home before pointing fingers. The Saudis are bad. Are we any better? Read Noam Chomskys manufacturing consent if you want to talk about brainwashing.
you won't ever say anything about Manor Solomon or Zinchenko supporting genocide but a player doing contractual duties is where you draw the line? Just say you either hate Islam or Arabs and move on.
Would love to see you and Alfie together on a video ngl, hope it comes to fruition. Two of my favorite creators in the football side of RUclips.
Alfie's football YTs David Attenborough
Educated sports fan RUclipsrs unite.
Yes
both football hipsters wonder what you look like lol
Without Freddie Adu, we need a collab between you two
whatsmore asap
WTF BRO YOU KNOW HITC SEVENS???????? A COLLAB WE NEED PLEASE!!
Two nerdy lil liberals 🤣🤣🤡
Probably not a good idea.
You'll see why soon.
Hitc sevens is more organized
football hipster overload
Idk if he collaborating with the misinformation guy is a good thing
Lots of people were forcibly displaced from their homes so that the Sheiks could implement their out-of-a-satire idea of making a city that's a straight line that is now advertised by footballers who'd sell their grandma for a million dollars
Empanada on a football video is oddly weird. Based man. Need you to talk smack about the Cube (Mukaab)
Ngl, word for word, this sounds exactly like something Alfie from HITC Sports would say about the whole Saudi situation.
did not expect to see you on a football video, hello Badempanada
Lots of people were also forcibly displaced from their homes or kil.led directly because of the US and their chosen big-nosed people, in several countries, adding up to tens of millions.
HITC Sevens the goat
The Line is just one aspect of NEOM. NEOM includes a few other, equally idiotic mega projects that will inevitably fail.
Even if it somehow worked
It would only be for ultra rich ppl lol it only houses a million even tho a trillion is spent on it
Just go to Long Branch like all the other rich white people
Yeah everyone is focused on The Line but everyone is ignoring that they're planning on making a synthetic snow resort and they're planning on bidding for the 2034 Winter Olympic games
I need to see a collab with vizeh,Fng, maqwell and HITC SEVENS
Throw in The Irish Guy as well. The forfeits will be CINEMA!!!!!
As long as Maqwell can keep his politics out of-great creator but the bias is just nuts with him in a way it’s not with HITC, Z, etc.

Chris Smalling is just living every Millwall academy player's dream of being a mouthpiece for a totalitarian state
seeing people learn about the line by NEOM is so funny

Ok come on you and Alfie would be actually elite level RUclips
PML the cat retching
Bro THE LORE DROP
Zealand promoting the line better than Smalling. Btw bad marketing still a marketing.
Saudi, or naive?
I love your and Alfie videos and I think would been amazing to collab man

COGNITIVE CITY!
Bro I just clicked on this video off a hitc sevens video No wayyyy 😂😂
Reportage kind of video on some football news would be ideal premise of your collab with HITC Sevens
Sounds kinda “Logan’s Run.”
And let me join the chorus of mutual fans of you and HITC Sevens who would love to see you guys collaborate
fifa needs to do something about gambling sponsors, overly inflated transfers and contracts, alcohol brands and a few other other things that these bottomless pocket wearers
Hey, you should do a collab with that guy that just retired, that Zealand guy. You two look a lot alike, it's kinda freaky.
Shoutout to Alfie!
The cognitive features of my brain featuring billions of cells from the sanctum in my skull inspired this comment #grateful
First time I’ve heard of this guy and it’s bc he’s a shill for the Saudi Pro League. Real man of character.
The whole idea of The Line is extremely idiotic and honestly dangerous (for people who will live in it)
I literally follow two football RUclipsrs - you and Alfie 😂
4:54 Z, the entire point of this city is that thats absolutely not the case lmao
Imagine living in a city. Just, any city. Why would you want to spend your life in a rat-infested, crime-riddled dystopia when you could just live in the middle of nowhere and not have to deal with any of that
I live in a city. I much prefer all of that to the middle of nowhere. More affordable, too.
Alfie x Zealand collab!?
You should collab with The Irish guy some day maybe make a video on prem predictions with him❤
No fucking way my 2 fav youtubers are friends
Messi gets paid by them and he seems to get a pass….it either needs to be ok for all or not at all but ppl cherry-picking who isn’t allowed to take their money is bullshit

eh Smalling is 34 now, he isnt going that much longer
I mean for all we know that was part of the contract he signed…. If there are things about doing sponsorship agreements in his contract then he is just doing what he agreed to. Unfortunately for him the sponsorship is a joke but he is just collecting his bag. No foul on smalling imo.
Rich coming from an American.

its over
Zealand Alfie collab? We will be there no matter what🙏
Hashtags are still relevant. #GallagherRojiblanco
I will just say that one of these videos plays into the hands of Saudi Arabia just through pure publicity to whatever shit they're promoting
Cooked? Emi Martinez got a ban for being Emi Martinez. It's so over
