Thanks for subscribing for more European reactions!
the luis suarez one is less about how his teeth look and more for the fact that he is famous for on THREE occations ahving BITTEN an opponent.
The Vampire from America 😅
Talented attacking player a shark in the box
Chiellini in the 2014 wc, Ivanovic in a early 2010s Liverpool Chelsea and who else?
@@diegodessy9700 While he was playing for Ajax, he bitten a player from PSV.
El Cannibal!
3:29 there is no chant in the world that could make Zlatan insecure
Insecurity is insecure when Zlatan is there
Could almost say that Zlatan would make the chant insecure
@@andreanecchi5930
🤣🤣🤣
I chuckled at that too. Lol
Yeah came here to say that, Zlatan and insecure are just mutually exclusive.
Zlatan is never insecure. Compared to Zlatan, even Christiano Ronaldo seems like a 15-year-old schoolgirl who meets her first crush.
That is strangely accurate xD
I mean you can say it about everyone, Ronaldo is one of the least manliest people alive
@@wykydytron Yeah but Zlatan was confident he was the best player in the world before stepping foot outside Sweden.
favorite anecdote: when he went to the MLS, he got a jersey from LeBron James. He signed it for him and sent it back.
@@istvangaluska I've got no Idea who Lebron James is (maybe president of MLS?) but sounds funny
"Zlatan, don't make him insecure..." yeah, no chance of that 😂
true true
😭😭... Sign the Jersey and send back to LeBron....
They know the lyrics because they get sung every week and when a new chant is started it’s a few loud guys on the terraces who start it and everyone else gradually joins in.
It also helps that the majority of chants follow just a few basic structures. Pretty much every club has a slightly different version of the same chants and they just get slightly different lyrics.
In my times, tapes were recorded and handed around to all the fans, with lyrics and singing order,
The 20,000 empty seats song was being sung at my teams ground (Man United) and yes, stadium was full. They were singing about the team we were playing that day (Manchester City) who don't fill their own ground. It's a cross city rivalry song
Okay, but for now Manchester is blue❤
@@DonTom-qo6jz there aren't even enough city fans in Manchester to fill their stadium even after winning a treble, which really says it all. At most, 1% of Manchester is blue.
@@duffman18 i ment blue team ks better by results! Anyone know that manU has way bigger fan base
I remember as a teen I went to the US to a holiday camp as a counselor. One weekend I went with some English kids to a Baseball game (Nationals vs someone else, I can't remember). We were seated at the far end of the stadium, and were bored to death, so we ended up singing camp and football songs for funs. Had a lot of fun but people were definnitely weirded out by us.
Best part is, there was only one player close to us (the guy that was meant to catch any long balls I guess). We knew nothing about him other than his name (Wilson), so we started singing to him, 'Wilson we love you' and the like. Time passes, teams switch roles, and he gets to bat. Dude scored a home run. We were over the moon, and even posted the newspaper clipping of his homerun on the counselors cabin. Way to go Wilson!
Yes, we sing for spark the players confidence as well when we feel that the team needs an individual ispiration break on the game. We are an extension of the coach. We can love and can punish from the stadium seats.
i now love wilson too
Was laughing out loud with your comment about Zlatan. Zlatan is famously arrogant and self confident. Also was an amazing player and I believe the whole arrogance act he did was mostly PR.
zlatan and the word insecure together is just an oxymoron
When he's bragging around, looking excessively arrogant, he's just trolling. He especially likes to troll journalists. He's a Balkan boy, after all.
😂 Laughed so hard on his parody character Zava on „Ted Lasso“.
That comment made my night, Zlatan insecure. Had to check the comment before continuing the video.
Zlatan is not arrogant. Arrogance is Zlatan.
Always makes me smile when Americans refer to their national sport as football, especially when you think that 99% of the game the ball is passed hand to hand. At least the rest of the world know that when we refer to football we are talking of a game played with a ball and feet.
99% of the game is getting in to position.
@@drcl7429so positionball?
@@rhodry81 Call it whatever you want. Not going to make it less tedious.
that moment when you realize that thing isn't even a ball
Thats why I refer to it by shape. Eggball. That's it.
Or to piss them off more, US Rugby
Taking the piss out of people is how we say we like you in Europe. If I was being paid 250k dollars a week and people weren't chanting about my big ears I'd be livid.
🎵KyLEmenOS🎵 KyLEmenOS🎵 he writes a lot,🎶but he are a toss.
You are welcome!
The thing you have to know is that when the fans ( especially the fans of a big club) start slagging off a player, that means that player is considered a threat, so a player knows he has made it when the fans have a go at him, unless of course it’s his own fans then he really needs to pull up his socks.😊
Those were only English fans, not even from any other European state.
Calling it "European" is like showing American Football fans from "all America" while showing only those from Cuba. It's accurate but easily could be replaced with other word.
Bio ke i cak jedan hrvat 😂😂😂 onaj sto je primjetio da je obojan u kockice 😂😂
What European state do you mean County 🤨 Europe doesn't have states but countries 🇪🇺🤨
@@marlonrvlogs In many countries, including mine, state = country. We however do an exception when talking about some countries like the US, but otherwise it's the same. I'm French
@@marlonrvlogs W.R.O.N.G.
- In my state (Poland) there are c.a. 10 countries (Pommerania, Sudovia, Red Ruthenia, Kuyavia, Mazovia, Silesia etc.).
- In the state called Great Britain there are 3 countries (England, Wales, Scotland).
- In the state called Czechia there are 2 (and a little of a third) countries (Bohemia, Moravia and a piece of Silesia).
Wanna know more? That will cost you mana points.
@@marlonrvlogs We sure have states. For instance, the Swedish government is called _staten_ (the state) in Swedish.
The Luis Suarez chant is a reference to the fact he bit players during matches
To put the Georgie Best comment in context, he is famous for saying... "“I spent a lot of money on booze, birds, and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.”"
Also, being on the p.... is not joining him for a communal wee. lol
Dont make him (Zlatan) insecure must be the funniest sentence i've ever heard :D
Some clarifications:
No they didn’t mean “mad United fans” Man is short for Manchester
7:23: go on the piss is a euphemism for getting drunk, George Best is a footballing Legend from decades back
8:49: they know the lyrics because one person starts it and everyone else joins in. Once you hear it once you just go with it.
i woudnt worry about making zlatan insecure, when he arrived in la to play for la galaxy he took out a 2 page add in the newspaper that whas just blank and in the middle it said "you are welcome"
Getting pissed (drunk) with George Best, a football icon, he passed away in 2005.
I love the fact he's just searching players 😂❤
I usually like Ryan's videos even though I don't particularly find him funny.
But on this one I burst out laughing uncontrollably every time he googled a name. I'm absolutely not into sports and even I know who Zlatan is ! 😂
People didn't understand the Ivory Coast born Toure brothers chant. Kolo was the first to play in England and was a defender, his younger brother YaYa came later and was the epitome of streamlined attacking midfielder (he could also play other positions) They were both great players but YaYa had already played for Barcelona, who at the time were considered by some as the best team in the world, so much was expected of him when he arrived. He never disappointed, scored some magnificent goals and made wonderful plays for others to score.
The chant has specific gestures as you sing the different brothers names, even if you're on the platform of the train station.
Always loved the Toure chant and the brothers!
As you were typing Mesut Özil’s name I was already laughing 😂
I almost cried tears when he had to get up and walk away
@@Toffifay Just as well you haven’t got eyes like Özil or you could’ve drowned.
I've honestly never laughed that much on any of his previous videos. I couldn't breathe anymore when he left the room ! 😂🤣
0:34 To form the mosaics, the club simply leaves a banner of one color on each seat, and the fan raises it at the beginning of the match.This stadium is Cam Nou, Barcelona.
this man just said ' dont make zlatan insecure ' you gonna have a lot a fun reacting to zlatan videos :D
⚽️Even as a non football/soccer fan like me, you cannot escape the magic of a stadium packed with happily singing men. 😆
And women thank you very much.
When I was young I worked at a football/soccer stadium as a hostess (greeted people, checked their tickets, helped them find their seats, etc.). I'm absolutely not into sports but needed to pay the rent.
It happened to be one of the best jobs I ever had ! The atmosphere was awesome, everybody was having a good time and after a few matches I knew all the chants by heart. I even cheered for the players even though I had no idea who they were and didn't even understand the rules ! 😂
Need to watch "zlatan Ibrahimovic cocky moments" please. :D
The seagull chant can be used at any stadium near the coast. When you know the stadium capacity and the average attendance you can claim XXX empty seats. Suarez was well known for biting opponents, hence the teeth jibe.
Were they not playing Brighton? Whose nickname is “the seagulls”?
there are chants and songs (in Germany aswell) that are there for "generations", you join the fanclub you hear it a few times and it is stuck in your head. I grew up close to a fan club pub and each time the football team played they were singing songs on the streets and in the pub and you just got stuck with those songs .. I dtill know most of the words to one song and I haven´t lived in that village for 25years and am not a fan of football at all.
It's only England however.
Other countries have outrageous chants too
It's like spoon feeding americans or just a lazy cc that doesn't want to translate chants.
I mean I respect the British, at least they try and make some funny shit up. But no one in Europe holds a candle to South American crowds. Specially Uruguayans and Argentinian ones, we are wild over here. There are some hilarious compilations that sadly no one translated yet.
The other day I looked up some chants from Spain and was utterly disappointed, it's like we speak different languages
You're just envious that football fans may have better poetry than cheerleaders.
I like the ones where they take a hit on themselves in true British self irony spirit.
Ha! The British are the only ones in Europe who kinda get it. Nothing like South American chants tho
@@claudiosanchez764 well, they may be the ones easiest to understand.
@@claudiosanchez764 the nordics and their clubs' fans are quite savage towards eachother as well...
But of course if you don't understand the nordic languages, it may sound like the fans are yelling recipes of chocolate moose and meatballs at each other (muppets' Swedish chef style)
George Best was a legendary skilled player who later in his career slipped into alcoholism and became a legendary drinker and womanizer and died quite young.
I loved the smirk after the joke at the beginning: "I didn't know Europeans watched football. I thought they only watched soccer."
That was a great joke! Love it!
Oh, did he joke?
The chant about Suaraz was a reference to him having a habit of biting opposing players during matches in Engalnd.
He also does have buck teeth
One match in England. The others were against Italy at the WC and while he was at Ajax.
It's played with a ball and you use your feet, so it's FOOTBALL.
This was just too funny to watch in the middle of the night! Please react to more of these if you can find more, or if someone suggests another one!
Ha ha ha! Making Zlatan insecure. That's a great joke. 😀
Even at amateurs as low as mine was there were often a few teens or very old guys trying to make you insecure, and your direct opponent on the pitch of course. In football confidence makes all the difference, if you have such a day that even ball is against you and isn't cooperating at all, you have to make sure you don't let it affect you.
11:11
It's the perfect way to silence the opponents fans by taking the piss out of themselves because they have nothing real to come with.
It's often used by teams that usually win but have a few bad weeks to say that the smaller team is not special for defeating them.
One thing, Zlatan and insecure dont go together 😂😂
OMG! You are freakin' hilarious! I rolled at your reactions. thanks for sharing!
in Europe we know the difference between humor, heckling, and person. Sometimes on the edge of what is considered decent. SOMETIMES! it's about reality, and then the verdict is as hard as granite. Meaning neither Zlatan nor the nose, it's on the soft side.
Really staying on the edge with the Park one yeah lmao
If there was one man in the world who would never be insecure, it's Zlatan my friend. 😂
Time to educate youself about this living legend! Who played in the USA aswell.
Best reaction channel by far
The mention of Luis Suarez that his teeth are offside refers to an episode that occurred in the 2014 World Cup in which he bit an opponent during a game.
He did it on two other occasions.
Zlatan for sure is not insecure. When he played for LA galaxy he took a full page ad that said: you are welcome
Football/"soccer" fields don't have a standard size or even proportion - there only are defined maximum/minimum lengths and widths, that's why fields from certain angles can appear very differently in size and proportion.
This one is better in youtube "FUNNIEST FOOTBALL CHANTS IN ENGLAND + lyrics"
We follow along with the leader and anticipate the words. We are very very good at that. I was singing along here. 😂😂😂
4:10 - Luis Suarez was known for biting other players during the game! 👹
"offside" is a special rule in association football - a bit too complicated for me to explain, but any goal scored while being in a offside position is invalid. So it is a play with words. (The rule says that feet, rump and *head* count for detecting an offside position. Ice hockey and Rugby have also rules regarding offside positions.)
On "Boys from the Black Stuff" an awesome Liverpool based TV series, Bernard Hill, playing a less than sane Yosser Hughes, face to face with Liverpool star and hard man, Graeme Souness (famous for his moustache) "You look like me!"
Next week, from all his own Liverpool supporters, "You look like Yosser Hughes!"😁
"The personal attacks have to stop guys." Why? They're the whole point!
To your first question, people is just holding the colored sheet they find under their seat
I've seen a comment from Ryan asking me for a discussion but now is gone. Spam or real?
02:21 don't you see the seagulls flying over the stadium? Definitely more seagulls than fans! 😂
No one can make Zlatan insecure. He was once asked in an interview what he was buying his wife for Christmas and his reply was "She does not need anything, she has Zlatan.".
Well, in fact, these are all fan chants from Greatbritain, not of any other European country. The Brits are quite infamous for them, their fan culture might be viewed as a bit aggressive at times. But they are also loyal to the core to their respective club or national team.
It this was a video about Germans, also famous for their sense of humour, too few would understand them. I think the self mockery, it's only 4-0, we loose every week, is rather typical of English people drinking for the many hours in the bus to an away game in just another a season that is going nowhere for them and in which they can't even score a goal for weeks to cheer them at least a bit up during a losing match.
England
That one was relatively tame. They didn’t even call anyone a pedophile.
2:20 the melodies are constant and all you need is one wise ass and a group of friends to start chanting. If people like it they join in
I couldn't laugh more when he said "don't make him insecure" referring to Zlatan. 🤣🤣🤣
i watch this video over and over again
The song made to Park was by his own fans, it's an honor to get one assigned to you. He was loved by everyone when he played for us and still is.
Kurt Kouma fans chant "That's how your cat feels " when he gets injured he got caught on video kicking his pet cat
0:42 they place a paper in each seat to the fans raise it at the beginning of the match during the anthem usually. This is a home match so 90% of the crowd is from the same side.
For the first picture with the colour coordinated stadium: when you arrive to your seat or section, there will be a sheet of paper in a colour, and usually a flyer explaining when to hold it up or when to turn it if it's different colours on each side. If you want to see it on a smaller scale, Zürcher Südkurve of FC Zurich does a lot of those Choreos.
How we know what to sing: if it's a new song there will be a flyer with the text and which melody it is for the first time it's done. And the Capo will chant it into a megaphone every time it's done.
Football.. you are right, in Europe there is only One football!!
I gotta say, the funniest part was when you were compelled to look their picture up.😂
Those are usually cardboard pieces left on the seats before people get in. You lift the one left on your seat when the speaker tells you to. If it's the whole stadium, the club organized it. It it's on the ultras stand, they did it themselves.
@Ryan Luis Suarez has bitten other players multiple times. I think it's as much a reference to that as the formation of his teeth.
It’s Zlatan. If his nose was offside, the laws of the game would spontaneously change to make it onside.
Nothing cam make Zlatan insecure 😂😂😂
Ajax did make Zlatan insecure. But that was only part his process becoming a confident man.
0:46 some clubs leave out flags or pieces of card to hold up to create a pattern in the stadium
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
THIS deseres a SUB!
Greetings from Arctic Norway ✨✨✨✨🌟
Offside check 1: It's not that bad.
Offside check 2: C'mon guys.
Offside check 3: 🤣
Zlatan is the opposite of insecure. There is absolutely nothing that would make him insecure. Got me thinking of his season in Los Angeles I think he made a great impression there.
An interview with him at Jimmy Kimmel to give some background:
ua-cam.com/video/Q1TXk7ZdiQE/v-deo.htmlsi=LICOYuLyEmOu0nTZ
And in his first game for LA Galaxy, the team was under with 0-3. Then Zlatan came onto the field, and started off with this goal:
ua-cam.com/video/J15vfXqnwWw/v-deo.htmlsi=-s6Px4pxLTxLgFOF and later made another goal and LA Galaxy won with 4-3.
Personal attacks in England are a form of bonding. It keeps everyone humble... something I have learnt is much less welcome in the USA. Basically, in England (Australia and New Zealand too); if you like someone you work with or have a friendly relationship, you make fun of them to keep them in check. This is done primarily at work but only because most of the time one is at work. But If they are not making fun of you to your face (taking the mikey); then they think you are an arse and you need to check yourself. Sticks and stones... No Harm no Foul
"I tought they watch soccer"
Them fighting words, mate..they throw you eggs, flour, sugar and make chocolatine out of you😂
I have watched a couple of American Football games at Wembley, they are very long without all the ad breaks and I can only assume everyone is asthmatic, after each play they need to rest and get their breath back?
Nice they have inspiration from opera like 'La Donna è Mobile (Rigoletto)' and classics like 'Whatever will be (Que Será, Será) - Doris Day'. Very cultured
The 20000 empty seats wasnt talking about the stadium they were in, that was old trafford which is usually packed. The fans were sunging abiut their rivals at the etihad who have a shockingly low attendance rate
Elephant man see John Merrick
I’ve been told a journalist asked Zlatan when he got married what kind of wedding gift he would give his wife. The formulation of the question was “what will she get?” Zlatan answered “What she’ll get? Zlatan!” keyword: crotch area
0:40 they just rise up a prepared colored PAPER!
(fangroups often prepare them before the game all over the selected seats and at around the start they have splitted their coordinators that animate the crowds to rise it up when they give the sign (or when you see all the others start rising theirs ... in case you just slept until kickoff :D)
And:
they are NOT installed by the football clubs themselves, but by their biggest fanclubs (of course in colaboration WITH the football clubs)
its a GIFT OF SUPPORT AND LOVE and pride of the fans to their team!
America grow a thicker skin.
That was just English fans! lol
These are all ENGLISH football fans, not European !
The Seagulls is also the nickname for BRIGHTON and HOVE ALBION football team.
Suarez was well known for BITING his opponents on the pitch !
MAN UTD is short for MANCHESTER UNITED. MAN CITY is short for MANCHESTER CITY.
To GO ON THE PISS is to get very drunk.
In old times pre internet the supoorter club of my club sended Tapes out to all the supporters with which songs and in which order.
How did they know the lyrics? How wouldn't they? I still know a bunch of chants by heart, and it's been over a decade since my footie passion faded away. Different melodies too lol
the empty seats one is being sung in mam united's stadium about man city
It's so funny to see someone who clearly has no interest in sports or ever been to a stadium watching these videos.
In Football the local team is shown first in the score sheet. They are mocking the visiting team because they are losing by 4.
George best legendary player and drinker to go and get drunk get pressed on the piss, with the express intent of getting drunk
Americans think these are insults when it is not a personal attack just good old humour
Ryan, Ryan...it´s not european fans. Those were only English fans...
I would put Duke’s Cameron Crazies up against this any day.
2:43 the chant was sung by man united at home to man city whose stadium is known for being empty
Keep in mind that an American is unlikely to have any ingrained knowledge of the fact that "Manchester" is frequently abbreviated to "Man" in various contexts (particularly football) in the UK.
The Mesut Özil thing is no longer because the fishmen island was freed a while ago.
I mean they are still in the reverie
Chants don't make Zlatan insecure, Zlatan makes chants insecure. Chuck Norris of football.
Thats right , now u now they not fuckin around. 😂😂 Nice reaction
Luiz Suarez has also bitten the opponents a couple of time so it is a bit because of that they sing it.
The chant about the empty seats are United home against City at Old Trafford. They are singing about City's home ground, the Etihad, which is never full. Replying to the City chant: "the City is ours".
making Zlatan insecure?? haaaaahaaa! that's a good one! lol
