- Carlsen's Shocking Statement On India's Candidates Tournament Chances | First Sports With Rupha Ramani
Chess' Candidates tournament is approaching and India has their biggest contingent at the prestigious event. Despite five Indians featuring out of 16 participants, World Champion Magnus Carlsen says he will be shocked to see an Indian win. In addition to Carlsen, Viswanathan Anand too isn't hopeful of the Indian setup winning big. Is it because of India's lack of experience?

His statement was based on players experience.. and for Indians they are all new to candidates ... He was not being racist he was just saying odds are not on India's side
Yeah these media cunts say anything for money.
obviously
I am indian and i am also agree with you dear
Agreed. This is how news channels takes one statement and takes it out of context to create controversy. Nobody who follows chess in India would think that Magnus was being racist.
You are using clickbait titles. Any chess follower understands Magnus statement in the perspective
Truly..
What magnus said was right...I mean- how come these guys find a way to create Controversy..
Hikaru(a bullet champion, Blitz champion for many years, Big event like Norway Chess winner), not to mention, Most Wins in titled tuesday too.
Carauna(who's consistently 2nd for Many years, never flinched, Maintained 2nd place, won many events, also selected for candidates),
Of course seeing these guys Results, Anyone can easily say they are most likely to win or sure win
Nepo, Who's won candidates 2 times, is in top contender which is not shock, Even Carauna, Hikaru hasn't done that so far, But since he's less stable and gets into emotions, he has bit less chance to win.
Alireza is youngest player to cross 2800 which is remarkable in itself, if I were to rank, I would rank him in top contender but will do well is not bad for him either..
Also Prag is emotionally strong and can grind for long time, But isn't quite experienced..Of course he might win in future, but for now, there's no such surity..Although, he will do win that's for sure..Magnus said that too..Soo yeah.. And also he's been consistent and Tireless for many events and Also won some soo Yeah..
Vidit and Gukesh are not consistent as Prag, I'm not saying they aren't talented but you must have Strong will power and strong Mentality to Win in chess which I don't see in them(neither magnus), ..So putting them in Will do poorly is not that controversial..If they win, that would definitely be shock,(although Prag is exceptional, he got potential)
I never heard of abasov before..So he mustn't be that strong like these guys..Soo yeah putting him at last is not shocking..
So what why controversy?
@18svd Bro they are media it's their work to show things loud . Otherwise it won't sell😅😅😅😅😅
I simply think having 3 players from the same nation in the same candidates tournament is about as fair a tournament as it is fair to make this clickbait title against Magnus Carlsen.
Even Anand is saying the same thing for fuck's sake! Why does the Indian media get so offended by literally anything and everything? Magnus was making perfect sense. It is indeed highly unlikely that an Indian wins the candidates. He didn’t even highlight India's name separately.
Probably because of Hindutva and Modi, to a large extent. Sorry to say it.
@@Amethyst_Friend your mother will be pregnant because of Hindutva and Modi
@@Amethyst_Friendlol blaming it on the Hindus.. every wrong deed is done by Hindus and if something good happens then it's suddenly an entire nation's achievement... Sorry to say this but this is the hypocrisy of non Hindus..
@@Amethyst_FriendBrother, give the facts and articulate proof, .first of all, no one believes in such things said out of thin air.
@vedantmahajan5239 Actually, he is not entirely wrong. Modi and BJP have fueled this whole trend of aggressive neo-nationalism everywhere over the last 10 years. Always being proud and boasting about India and India's image has become way more important than speaking and accepting the truth.
Magnus is totally correct. Even me, as an Indian would be shocked if an indian wins because other players are so experienced
Experience means absolutely nothing. In chess its more likely for a new player to win
Whatnow😂😢@hampten
Hope you'll come out of shock soon
@@himanshutiwari9807 Buddy, I know we're all patriots. But, experience does matter and in fact nobody told that an Indian won't be able to win the candidates. All that was told was that they'd be surprised if an Indian wins the candidates despite having more experienced people on the field
@hampten23 always have believe in your sports players and once in a while in every sports some special talent come and we are fortunate that currently we are having some special one's may be 3-4 future worldchamps. Nothing against you buddy it's just a game that we as country gona dominate for coming few decades. Just have self believe In those who represent our country in any kind of sports or anything.
He's right though. He knows better than all of us. So we shouldn't judge him.
fr
yep
Perfect.
After round 9, I dont think he actually knows much at all when it comes to predictions
@@kartikeyatiwari2502...Thats after round 9.....what he nd vishy sir said were the odds in the start.
Amongs Indian too....Pragg was the fav. see now
Caruana is 2800+, Magnus himself couldn’t win a classical game against him in 2018 world championship, what do you want him to say? Vidit shall win? Facts don’t care about your feelings
Funny how vidit is tied with caruana after round 9.
vidhit beat nahamura, i think you have to change your NLP programming in positive way
@@abhijeetbhagat100 check the current standings cowboy. Thanks
@@ahamasmiyodha but gukesh is proving some people wrong.
@@ahamasmiyodhaI agree on your og comment
But about 'current standing' there is something else also to see👀
Everyone who is following chess updates knows magnus is absolutely right,there are always wins and losses but only those who are consistent and experienced have the highest chance thats hikaru,fabiano and nepo here.
Sanity in this comment section restores my faith in humanity. These news reporters are letting the nation down for their own clickbaits and view gain. Indian media is really turning insane with each passing day.
That's why we only follow chessbase india. The only truly unbiased chess channel.
Lady saying Fabio Caruana judging magnuses opinion is the mother of all ironies 😂😂
The video's start "Magnus is a tad bit confused.." itself made me chuckle. They dont know the stature of who they are talking about.
Clearly you guys don't have a clue about the chess world. What he says is correct. Indian players are young, and are participating for the first time.
Winning one game is one thing, but carrying in the same form for the whole tournament will be very difficult.
Although I want Indian players to win, it is unlikely.
She does not have any idea about chess. Trying to present this clickbait news after 5 minutes of reading. Shame!!
Doesn't
They don't need to. it's a business more clicks more money
Correction for 3:30 - Nepo's never been the world champ!
That's their credibility.
First of all he did not say that...Second of all he is right like who's gonna beat fabi, hikaru and ian smh
What Carlsen said is spot on !! It would be a shocker if any Indian or even Alireza wins it
Change this clickbaity title.
When searching for "Fide Candidates 2024" this video appears on the front, and it is very embarrassing for Indians.
Dont push such clickbait titles to get more clicks based on hate. Magnus is right, it will be shocking if any of the Indians win because it is their first Candidates. Caruana, Nepo, Nakamura and Alireza have been in multiple candidates before.
As a chess player myself I was able to understand his statement but guess what Gukesh shut his mouth and I can say that Magnus will be the one most happy proved wrong id if you know him 😂
He's the expert. He knows their capabilities much more than we do. Is it even likely that Prag will beat someone like Hikaru or Fabi?
Why the heck not?
@@hiteshgoswami1429 This is chess, not cricket. You simply don't see young guys beat the old guns that often (unless that young gun is the GOAT MAGNUS CARLSEN)
He is correct though. I want pragg to win but its unlikely. Its gonna be fabiano/ian/hikaru
Magnus is a born genius. I think he is right.
Karlson is not not he has to take a 'side'. He's just putting forth his objective analysis - that's all.
You are propagating false information. Fabiano Caruana has not won the candidates 3 times (time stamp 1:12) . He has won only once in 2018. This is very very poor journalism. The host couldn't even call the name correctly as his name is "Fabiano" and not "Fabio"
This is poor journalism. This does not belong on FirstPost. Dear Palki Sharma, you are not controlling for the quality of journalism on this channel well enough.
Poor showing. Your US correspondent and this one - both degrade the reputation of this channel.
Please show us a clip or statement by Magnus where he said he will be "shocked if an Indian wins".
Actually what Magnus said is true. Being and Indian and a true chess fan
who is fabio lol
Ah yes, Fabio Caruana
Een nepomnashi
Magnus made the comments based in the competing field. Candidates torunament is not a joke, the winner gets to face the current world champion. Not that our Indian players dont stand a chance, but no one will place odds against people with 10+ years exp like Fabiano, Hikaru and Ian who have been 2780+ and top 5 for a long long time.
Makes for a great clickbait video by catering to the emotional side. FirstPost has truly excelled at this. Be it emotional clickbait or victim mindset i.e pseudo feminism, ForcePost is a force to reckon with. 🙂
Keep it to Chess dont bring your LGBTQ crap here
Please don't use clickbait title. Carlsen's statement are completely based on experiences of the Indian players. Indian juniors need more experience to reach top 10.
It has nothing to do with india particularly, I'm an Indian but i know how strong and experienced fabi and hikaru are... Magnus cannot ignore his only rivals at this time.
Indian media is butthurt. He was stating a fact, know the competition before you accuse someone of such things. He could sue you??
They probably didnt understand his perspective.
Indian media does not have any thing to be butt hurt. They just report.
@@pavanshetty9806Do you think we idealize people and make gods out of them?
@@vedantmahajan5239 I don't understand how your statement is relevant to topic, vedio or to my reply.
Nothing wrong with what he is saying. Any sensible man who is objective and unswayed by his own wishes would say the same.
There is talent. But experience, temperament and eventually consistency matter more.
He doesn't say it is impossible, it is improbable. Fair assessment.
If you understand chess and have been following the game, you would know why this is not at all a shocking statement to make.
I'm Indian and bet for Caruana ... Chess players know why magnus is correct.
Magnus said that analytically.He likes Prag a lot . What he meant was that if an Indian wins ,will be a shock to the world,as he has always said that India has a special place in Chess and they will return at the top soon.
India can do it, no matter the opponent. Call it a dream but it is worth fighting for
Everyone is surprised as Gokesh Won 🏆
When you follow chess for 1 day and give a news report abt it... This is what we get
It shows the quality of reporters and their back office knowledge on subjects.....
2:31 exactly, you guys don't understand. Magnus says Indian players are tye future and not the present.
Magnus is usually pretty accurate in his projections. The Indians have to try and stay close and then win it in the end.
It's not just the future of chess is with India, it is also the HOME where Chess was founded during the Gupta dynasty in the 6th Century. Will Gukesh bring the title home again like Anand did?
Magnus be like I never said that shit😂
This cannot be construed as racism or having a low opinion about Indian chess players. He is stating the odds of winning this one. I am sure that our players will have their time soon in the coming years.
This is not a shocking statement . players like hikaru , ian ,fabio are really good
Brah! Don't use click-bait titles. He never mentioned any nationality. He only talked about players.
I'm an Indian and I want all three Indians to secure top three places but I would be shocked too if atleast one of them secures top spot. Magnus spoke facts, period.
Please take things in perspective. Magnus is just stating facts... it has nothing to do with likes or support or lack there of.
He is an authority .... but even if his statement seems negative , just look at odds given to each player and you would see the same thing being reflected.. its just facts..
But that does not rule out an indian winning... its just less likely based on odds.. hopefully they prove odds wrong..
Getting three players from India in The Candidates is very impressive, but they are not the strongest out of the eight.
People in India, including chess masters thought so.
Gukesh won against all odds.
Fabio Carina has won recent editions and has Elo of astounding 2800+.
Thanks for covering it
there is no men's candidates, its open for everyone.
But both Gukesh and Pragg have beat Magnus Carlsen twice in a couple of weeks last year.
That is phenomenal by any standards. So their talent is without question and they can beat anyone in the world.
This is dumb clickbate. He might be underestimating there chances, but it is because there experience level. And because of Hikaru, Nepo, and Fabi’s level of play over the last couple years and experience. I think anyone that follows chess understands any of those top younger Indian players could become world champion, and one of them might be the favorite next time. But Magnus was saying it was unlikely this go around.
He's right though. Fabi, Hikaru and Nepo are like SO experienced. The Indian GMs are great but they themselves will be surprised, the odds are against them. That's not to say they can't absolutely win but they need to do well. We are talking about odds. Of course, it's impossible to predict the future. If I have to put my money on any of the Indian GMs, it would be on Gukesh.
She says Ian Nepo is the world champion at 3:30 which is wrong. Nepo was candidate but not a world champion.
Basically everyone got it wrong and Gukesh wins. Rooting for him to become WORLD CHAMPION.
In most cases, the pre tournament favorite never wins. So, its good to be an underdog. Let the pundits predict, it is after all their job to predict (incorrectly).
Indians will rule Chess in a decade. No hurry. First Cricket, now Badminton.
Well last statement nailed it. Listening to this after Gukeshs win
Well, Gukesh proved everyone wrong. 😊
The comments pass the vibe check.
If Magnus played in the candidates tournament, he could be shocked if an Indian wins.
Aint for fuck sake indian media is 140+ ranked in the world
It's a shock now 😂. Gukesh has won.
The indian chess playes are in the short time the best.
You need to first understand how hard Candidates is as a tournament, Magnus is entitled to have an opinion- no need to be a drama queen everywhere. We have good players and I am sure 1 or 2 of them will be in top 3 at the end of the tournament.
These indian guys are new. Others are experienced players. So carlson was reasonable.
Bhai bol sakta hai, Magnus ended Anand chess career in his Home Country & in his home state! G.O.A.T of Chess!!
Its not men’s category and women’s category. Its open and women.
At the end of the day nothing really matters what Magnus Carlsen says. Most Indians do not care. The chess will speak for itself and very soon an Indian will defeat Mr Carlsen over and over. That day is very near.
This is simply how chess works
Indian talent won candidates 2024....!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
When you report on stuff without proper research this is what happens.
I've been following chess for years and I can confirm Carlsen's statement isn't wrong at all.
he did a favour to the Indian candidates by taking away some of the pressure
0:54 ah yes, my favorite chess player, Fabio Caruana!
I m from future..seeing D Gukesh proving... Magnus wrong❤
Based video, magnus said facts and he doesn't have some beef with indians
this video is so fucking inorant i cant even be bothered to correct it, im indian and even i agreed with his predictions
I was really upset with the video but very glad after seeing the comments on this. Thank god people are not automatically sucked into this rhetoric by organisations trying to make a quick buck using cheap tactics.
Yes, all the three Indians who made it are youngsters with no experience for such a huge tournament. Who would expect then to win. It would indeed be shocking. Please news agencies stop trying to benefit out of neonational posts for the sake of it. It is not good for the nation nor for the reputation of news organisations as well.
Let's shock magnus .. Go Pragg, Guki, VSG, Koneru, Vaishali 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Not male and female category
It's Open and Female category
cant say fabiano's name and you call magnus dumb lol
This is too much. He is being honest here not racist. I am Magnus fan ansd I am an Indian.
Carlsen is highly intelligent, that's why he hired Peter nielsen who was second for Anand for 10 long years when he challenged Anand for the first time. NO QUESTION OF ETHICS WHEN ONE AIM'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP?!
Dude, Peter Nielsen offered to join magnuses team after the championship, but anand himself permitted him to work for magnus, because they trusted each other to not leak information. We are talking about magnus carlsen, the single greatest player in history besides garry maybe, he beat vishy not once but twice even after the peter nielsen incident.
Anand came to Manila interzonals without a second in 1987, nobodyelse so and finished second. When tug of War came with FIDE, in 1995 Kasparov invited Anand to fight him in New York where he set the stage and terms and Anand had to face adversities. No complaints, such a gentleman, he went everywhere he was invited without bargaining, played both circuits.
When he met Karpov in Croninjen, after the candidates he was not offered any break and lost the match by narrowest margin. After the contest that gentleman opined that Karpov was waiting for his opponent to come to Croninjen in a coffin! That much was only his protest against gross bias.
When he met Topalov, due to unforseen circumstances no flights were there and he had to travel by road for days to reach the venue and requested for a few days rest, but denied. He lost one game and he fought back to win it.
In times of turbulence he was there in both circuits without any demands or ego, that ultimately enabled reunification. Kasparov was beaten by Kramnik in one-sided contest and contest between Anand and Kramnik was set as reunification match in which Anand won quite easily before completing the whole rounds. Anand has beaten Kramnik convincingly in latter's prime, even then there are too many rate Kramnik above Anand without any justification, a man who was there among the top contesting Kasparov from early 90's.
There is still time to delete this video. Getting names wrong, results wrong, showing how little the reporters know about chess etc.
Yeah. Do some more research. Carlsen knows what he is saying. The only one who has slightest chance if Pragg and Carlsen acknowledges that to an extent. He didn't even give Nepo a clear chance for victory as he reserved that for Fabi and Naka. The Chess audience tends to be very well informed. I know that the title is meant to get non-Chess audience to get interested in the news, but you don't have to stoop to that level.
This is what happens when you give stage to any uniformed person and make them a sports reporter
When did Fabi win 3 candidates?
No offense but the top three contenders are not Indian. Yes there are a lot of Indians in the tournament but none are expected to win this year. Maybe next.
Now we have Gukesh winning....yahooooo..Waiting for him to rule the world
carlsen had to eat his own words last time when he said Anand will never be able to make it back to world championship match when Anand lost to him in 2013. he is again eating his words under estimating Indians !!
When you don't know anything about chess then don't make such clickbait titles. Even of you ask any of the indian chess players they will still say the same.
Magnus carlson Shouldn't Take Indian Candidates Lightly, I believe they will do their best.
Don’t let your nationalism cloud your head. Just look at the elo of the players and you can understand Magnus statement 😅
Clickbait.
What magnus said isnt wrong, anyone who follows chess will know that.
But i am still rooting for the Indians, given the talent, a world champ from India is not that farfetched now.
First of all: Its not Fabio! It is Fabiano!! You are supposed to be a literate journalist!
Secondly: compared to nepo, Naka and fabi pragg, gukesh and vidit(although improving dramatically) are still inferior. Magnus is 100% correct!
