FIRST TIME REACTING TO...A Clueless American's Guide to the Premier League2021/22Season(INTERSTING) 

"What's the KGB?" is possibly the most American phrase ever uttered on RU-vid (mind you I bet Edgar J. is spinning in his grave right now 😳)

"Outside the USA premier league is the best" No, the premier league is the best, period

There's 20 teams in PL, and they play 38 games a season! That's what you got mixed up 🙂 The 6 he was talking about, was the Big Six. So pretty much the six most successful teams in the country. 3 teams go down, 3 come up at the end of every season 👍 The teams that finish top 4, are qualified to go and play Champions League. Where they face the top 4 teams from all the other leagues in Europe. Hope that clears some things up! Okay you got some answers at the end of the video! I'll leave this here either way 😬

That Arsenal fan ‘live and kickin’ is called troopz you have to react to his funniest moments he’s so funny man 🤣

To answer your question: Theoretically, a team could win the Champions League and be relegated from the Premier League in the same season (as you rightly said these are separate tournaments), however it would never happen. You have to be unbelievably consistently good to win the Champions League (essentially be the best club team in the world), so if you're beating Barcelona and Real Madrid to win the Champions League, you're not going to lose to the likes of Norwich and Burnley in the Premier League.

To put the Leicester thing into perspective, earlier that year it was announced that Peter Capaldi was leaving Doctor Who. The odds on The Queen of England taking the role were 4000/1. There was statistically more chance of The Queen playing The Doctor than there were of Leicester winning the league. It was truly the greatest underdog story in history and they haven't stopped, they've ran with it. Did well in next season's CL, consistently finished in the top 6 beat some poor, unsuspecting nobody's 9-0 on their own ground (Saints fan here) and then last season won the FA Cup. Amazing story...Apart from that 9-0...We don't need to look into that too much...

English Premier league the most watched sports league in the world. Regular season games (not a final of anything) between Liverpool and Man Utd can get a billion global viewers. To put that in perspective the biggest game in American sport, the super bowl, has a record of only 120m global viewers

This is the Premier League Table right now! 1. Chelsea 2. Manchester City 3. Liverpool 4. West Ham 5. Arsenal 6. Wolves 7. Tottenham (Spurs) 8. Manchester United 9. Brighton 10. Crystal Palace 11. Everton 12. Leicester City 13. Southampton 14. Brentford 15. Aston Villa 16. Watford 17. Leeds United 18. Burnley 19. Norwich City 20. Newcastle United There’s 26 games left so a lot can change and it’s extremely close already. But Chelsea , Man City and Liverpool are A LOT better than everyone else at the moment.

for the question at 31:01 this has kinda happened before where a team called wigan beat man city in the fa cup final which is a knockout tournament and which gave them access to the europa league competing against other european teams who missed out on champions league but they were still relegated and competed while in the 2nd division You should watch some vids explaining the champions league and it happens in between premier league games

This man said I doesn’t mater if you switch what team you support. Tells u all u need to know about how much Americans know about football 😂😂😂

The prem is easily the best league in the world.

In fact all the top European football leagues work the same way: the teams at the bottom of the ranking are relegated, the first wins the championship the teams at the top of the ranking qualify for European competitions (Champions league, europa league). For the European competitions, there is the UEFA index which classifies all the European leagues according to the number of European titles (all times) won by the clubs of each league and thus determines the number of places reserved for these leagues. For example in England the first four qualify for the Champions League while in France it is the first three.

Honestly as a Milan fan I watch the italian league, but premier league is definitively the biggest league in Europe.

I'd totally watch you two play FIFA against each other for the first time. Getting FIFA is a good shout, you'll learn a lot about the sport by playing the game

Glad to hear your healthy and back to the grind man, shout out to you guys 💯🤟🏾

Just some basketball/soccer random fact. Kobe Bryant as a kid lived for some time in Italy where he learned to play soccer. He became a fan of the sport. As everyone know Kobe wore 24 & 8 with the Lakers. But if you ever saw him play for the men’s national basketball team in the olympics, Kobe always wore #10. In soccer #10 is that guy on the field, if you west #10 you basically telling everybody you ready to carry the team on his shoulders. Kobe’s favorite soccer player is Ronaldinho and I’m sure somewhere on the internet there is a Kobe Bryan doing a little soccer trick with a basketball at one of his trainings.

Not gonna lie the 3 second mention for Crystal Palace hurt my heart more than if they'd just flat out call us bad

Tom Hanks supports Aston Villa. Will Smith supports Crystal Palace. Jay-Z supports Arsenal Spike Lee supports Arsenal Sylvester Stallone supports Everton Dr Dre supports Liverpool LeBron James supports Liverpool Floyd Mayweather supports Manchester United Justin Timberlake supports Manchester United Jennifer Aniston supports Watford. Ryan Reynolds supports and co owns Wrexham FC

You should definitely pick a entertaining side. It's a lot more fun to actually have a team to support, it makes it so much more interesting. Also a lot of banter between fans of different clubs which is funny. Manchester United and Liverpool are the big names which probably will be the most covered anywhere in the world. They both should also be playing entertaining football now with Manchester United appointing a new offensive coach.

Lebron has a 2% stake in Liverpool...

31:40 That would never happen. European competitions value sporting integrity over entertainment. Imagine spending millions, playing your heart out, risking injury and earning a place in the Premier League, then some suit says 'Actually we're changing the rules so the popular team who sucks is gona take your place, better luck next time.' Someone will get lynched. If you make your competition fair, the best teams will rise to the top automatically. If they can't, they don't deserve to be there. End of

The Champions League isn't at the end of the season, it runs simultaneously with the Premier League. Champions League matches are on Tuesdays and Wednesdays while normal premier league games are on weekends. The top 4 qualify for the next season's Champions League. No post-season.

Just discovered your channel! It’s amazing!

Literally, the Premier League is like the NBA of the football leagues. All teams are good and it has its surprises like a big team losing to a small one. Im not from England but Argentina, and I think the Premier League is the best football league.

The European Pound 😅🤣😂 Great video tho! :)

shout out to your brother for choosing the best team in history ❤️❤️

As a west ham fan go for west ham because he have die hard loyal fans that are passionate and somewhat violent and been through relegations but currently during this season we are 4th

I've been an Arsenal fan for over 30 years. AFTV is funny as hell! COYG!

first time I am here and need to say, that your audio tracks are perfectly mixed and matched. Not easy to find a reaction video (chanenel) which has a good audio balanc for not using head phones s/o by a football (soccer) crazy fan from Germany Greetings and Like.

Your question on being threatened with relegation in the Prem and winning the CL at the same time is a good one. Although that scenario is very unlikely. Firstly these 2 tournaments run simultaneously. So to be brilliant in the one and shit in the other is REALLY unlikely. Remember, in the CL you are playing the top clubs in European Football.

The part about just pick a good team...American here and everton fan for 22 years...hes right dont torture yourself haha

The premier league has 20 teams in it. And the teams play each other twice (home and away). Which adds to each team playing 38 games.

Kobe was also a big Football fan and even appeared in a few Nike football commercials

The KGB was the much feared and hated, State Security Agency of the USSR, throughout the Cold War. It was dissolved in 1991 after the break up of the USSR. Vladimir Putin served 16 years in the as a foreign intelligence officer until resigning in 1991 to pursue a political career.

The guy that made this video is really brave, to show Liverpool and Manchester City success, both Manchester United greatest Rivals.

every time he said outside America...wound me up!

as an aston villa fan ill give you a quick rundown on us our nicknam is The villa or the Villians we where proper sick back in the 80s and 90s but we sorta fell off a bit now, but with the appointment of our new manager unai emery we are now back to playing european football through the confernce league and have high hopes of finishing in the top 6 again this season. our rival clubs are Wolves, West Brom and Birmingham City

The reason why even though the league has 20 teams the same 6 usually stay on top is that there are no such thing like a draft in football. Each team has to buy or form their players in their academy, so obviously if ur richer you are pretty sure of getting the best player and win which makes you earn a lot of money which allows you to buy good players again and again. But some teams like Ajax are well known for their academy and their development of players which allows them some years to go really far in the champions league for example without spending to much money(it’s the case this year).

To answer the tournament question: There's also the FA Cup which all English teams compete in - a few years ago Wigan were in last position of the EPL, going to be relegated and they were playing in the final to win entry into the European leagues. So it can be completely crazy in that regard, where they would end up being in the second division of English Football, playing the best teams in Europe, the following season.

the guy keeps saying 'outside of America' but make no mistake about it the Prem is 10x better than any American franchise

The question about being relegated plus being the in Champions League, you still get relegated. Your win or position in the Champions League doesn't affect your domestic national league standing (Since the Champions League involves many national leagues). Also, around pronouncing names - to put into perspective, I've lived in a town called Exeter that had actual Roman ruins just around town. Leicester and it's name (named after the city) are so old that it's been round for probably 2-3000 years. It's adapted to modern English to Leicester after thousands of years of slight variation, so the written word is not always the same as the pronounced. You see it slightly happen in America too.

You can’t pick a team yet, but I can’t wait for the day you do

what makes supporting spurs soo good is when we eventually win something it'll be the best moment 😭🤣

I’ve watched the video before, and the only bad take was Brentford- they have one of the most interesting philosophies in sports when it comes to how the club is run

Leicester fan here. We wrote one of the greatest underdog stories in football history, and now we're considered a mid-tier club(kinda struggling in 2021 currently, but hey, there's still time)!

If you win the champions league then you'll automatically qualify for the next champions league even if you don't finish in the top in your own league

not maybe one of the greatest underdog stories in sports history. Its THE GREATEST underdog story in all of sporting history

Liverpool fan here ❤ good luck on picking a team‼ You gotta be in the top 4 to play champions league, relegated teams are at the bottom

For the question "If you get relegated but somehow win the Champions League at the same point" - It is HIGHLY unlikely that this will happen - but: That Team would still get relegated to the 2nd Division and they would qualify to play in the Champions League in the following Season as the Title Holder. It would just suck for the Team that is finishing 4th in the Premier League, that spot would normally qualify you for the CL - but since there can only be 4 Teams from England in that Tournament, only the first three out of the 1st League + the Winner of the CL, in our case the relegated Team, will play in the CL the next season.

The thing is, to qualify for the Champions League you have to have finished in the top 4 spots of your league the year prior. That means that you have to be extremely good to beat everybody and win the Champions League against clubs like Real Madrid or Bayern Munich but lose consistently throughout 38 games against Burnley, Norwich or Watford, which is basically impossible. Also, because Champions League games and Premier League games are played out throughout the whole of the season, there can't be the narrative of "losing someone for the playoffs". If a key player is injured, it is for both PL and CL games

Nice reaction to nice video 😂

Honestly Arsenal Fan TV is absolutely MUST SEE content. Oh boy if Arsenal lose 2-3 games in a row, it’s probably the best content on RU-vid.

There are 92 teams in the English Football League. It's easier and probably leads you to a happier life to to pick a top 6 team but if you want to spend a bunch of your heart for the possibility of the highest of highs, support a team in the 2nd or 3rd Division. Nothing feels quite as good as a promotion season.

Even team that wins champions league that season can be rellegated to lower division. Yes :D they are independent on each other (in this sense - they are connected just through qualifying to champions league, not vice versa)

Can we all agree this sports is football

The champions league is throughout the year with final in may. You have to be in top 4 the season before , to qualify for champions league.

You guys should react to some of the ArsenalTV fan rants. Anything from 2015-2017 is pure gold!

I've never actually thought of the relegation question. U will still get relegated to the championship (2nd division) but u will still participate in the following seasons uefa champions league.

My guy said the European pound . That's the Euro € which is the currency for most of Europe. The UK have the Pound Sterling £ which is more valuable than the Euro.

You should react to copa90 videos especially Derby days. They go in great depth on football rivalries and make just great videos

the whole pulisic thing really did go over their heads didn't it

Relegation is the worst thing that can happen to a football team. Main reason is money and it snowball into many issues. 1. People only wants to watch the top league. Each team gets 42 million USD each season off TV revenue. 2. The league below Premier League, teams only get 12 million USD. Reason no body watches it. 3. Reduce sponsorship for relegated teams. Sponsors pay top money for their brand to be featured on teams' jersey. If you are relegated, ain't nobody gonna pay good money for their brands to be featured on a shitass league with no viewership. 4. With the reduce of TV revenue and sponsorships. Relegated teams have to sell players, reducing operating cost to keep the club running. 5. Selling players = selling your best players. You best player only wants to play in the top league. Top team will be raiding your squad for good players at bargain price. 6. After selling half of the team. You need to rebuild but remember, you ain't got money and you ain't in the top league. The players relegated team can attract are of mediocre quality. Decent enough for lower league but not good enough to be in the top league. 7. From point 1 to 6 above is the BEST scenario for a relegated team. The worst scenario are teams that took loans to buy players, expending stadium etc while they are in the top league. Many relegated teams with debt can't even put up a decent team to compete in the lower league. 8. Those teams that cannot remain the the 2nd tier get relegated into the 3rd tier league. There are 11 tiers of English football league. 9. Many relegated team never make it back to the Premier League. There are teams with hundred of years of history that needs to be liquidated because they can no longer generate enough income to pay off their debts and they cease to exist.

I think playing football(soccer) is also important so I'd suggest getting a good ball, going to a field and playing together.

Can you please react to arsenal Fan Tv videos. It’s hilarious when they lose a game

KGB was like the Russian CIA. *Soviet Union Version of the CIA

The champions league final is at the end of the season but it's group and knockout rounds are played during the season ( qualified for by previous season finishing position) and if you get relegated you are relegated no matter what else you might win league and F.A. Cup winners have been relegated in the same season before but not champions league winners

I'm a Southampton fan we r a small club in the league but it's still so interesting

It's true. Arsenal TV is a gift to the world! When we beat them (I'm a Liverpool fan, we always beat Arsenal) I go directly to Arsenal TV to hear them go mental. It's genius!

There are 20 teams in the Premier League, the top 6 teams are Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and and Tottenham Hotspur, so basically 17 teams survive at the end of the season

Y'all need to react to arsenal fan channel that shii funny and the guy u seen was troopz mainly speaks in a Jamaican accent but y'all love it

Cup are like the playoffs, You have Euro cup (Champions league, Europa league) and domestic or national cups, in England you have the FA Cup and League Cup and these are knock out rounds like playoffs. It's possible to win one of these AND get relegated in the same season, although I dont think this has happened in England, maybe somewhere else? Spain Italy ? but I don't actually know (each country has National Leagues AND cup competitions) Its also possible for a team in "The Championship" to win the Cups (league below the Prem, so the 2nd division, the League you play in if you get relegated from the Prem) . Its even possible to win the Champions league and finish outside the qualification places for the following year The cup finals, both National and European are at the end of the season, but the knock out rounds run through the main season

I’m a Chelsea not bc of the American but bc of their constant success since I was a kid. Even though we had money invested into the club .Chelsea are the only club in England to use their money wisely. Unlike arsenal, Tottenham and united. So if you are a Chelsea fan you won’t regret that bc we win trophies every year or so.

this man seriously said the european pound.... the most american thing ive ever heard

First🙌🏾💯

Olympique de Marseille won the Champions League in 1993 but were relegated that same season because they got caught match fixing in the French League. So that has happened before but not in the way you would expect.

Best sports league in the world in or outside of America and definitely best football league in the world

38 regular season games, in the EPL there is a total of 20 teams each team plays each other home and home totally 38 games

I am a Liverpool fan.. you need to watch some videos of the team. I would recommend watching: Liverpool vs AC Milan 2005, Liverpool vs Dortmund 2016, Liverpool vs Barcelona 2019. these are just naming a few.

When they are talking about leagues they are mainly talking about Serie A (Italy), La Liga (Spain), Bundesliga (Germany), Lique 1 (French), Primeira Liga (Portuguese), Premier League (English), those are some of the top flight Futbol leagues…. And the KGB was long story short Soviet Union military police

8:57 KGB is the Russian version of the CIA during the Soviet Union (now Russia). What the narrator is referring to is that the owner of Chelsea (Roman Abramovich) allegedly has ties with Putin, the Russian President and former KGB agent.

Start reacting to premier league game highlights. It’ll help you understand the tactics and help you pick a prem team.

I like how he said the Europa League isn’t important, but also to add to that. If you win the Europa League you’ll also qualify for the champions league the next season as well. The top four teams from leagues in Germany (Bundesliga), Spain (La Liga), England (Premier league), Italy (Serie A), Ukraine, Russia, The Netherlands, & Belgium. Compete in the champions league. Some other countries in Europe have different qualifications where they can’t qualify for the champions league, which is why there’s the Europa League like in Scotland if you win the league you’ll qualify for the Europa League. And in the other leagues that I named if you finish 5th or 6th depending on the leagues qualification you’ll be in the Europa League. The Europa League is also the same tournament as the champions league and it goes the same way. Except the winner of the Europa League will automatically qualify for the champions league. No matter what place that specific team finishes in the league even if they get relegated (which is highly unlikely). So for the person that was explaining the video to say that is very disrespectful to other countries that physically don’t have a chance to qualify for the champions league because that’s the only outlet the other teams have to qualify in the tournament (The Champions League). To answer another question that you might have; what if a team that wins the Europa League finishes top 4 in their league? Then that means regardless they’ll still qualify for the champions league. That specific year they just won’t have a fifth team from any specific league that will qualify. You might not see this comment because you posted the video a month ago, but hopefully you will see it because you’ll definitely have a better understanding of the Europa League and how to qualify for the champions league through the Europa League.

this is the real football

You got 38 from him saying there are 38 games in a premier league season earlier in the video haha

Yes, the premier league is litterally the best and the most competitive. World class teams like manchester city, manchester united, tottenham hotspurrs, west ham,... Relegations are a thing, and to get in (an actual good team) you just have to be extremely good, effective and prove it with numbers!

Prem easily the most entertaining and highest level league every game is difficult so many strong teams and even the small teams cannot be underestimated also this league has most of the biggest names In football which is what makes it so difficult to win

My favorite team on premier was new castle and now liverpool bc the couch is my favorite bc of he train my favorite team on germany league 😂

I follow a championship (2nd tier) team and I live in Florida. ESPN shows championship games all the time.

BBC tv show Match of the day is all you need, boys. It comes out every Saturday. Then you have Match of the day 2 on Sunday. Watch these two every week and you will officially be following Premier League and know everything you need to know. That's how I follow it. Don't have time to watch full games, you know. They show you highlights, spoiler free. It's like watching mini games. Maybe the best sports show out there and I watch a lot of sports shows. Sometimes I don't watch it for weeks and then just binge watch it. They also provide short analysis, cover all the drama and everything. You will love it.

well if you get relegated in the leage but you are winning the championsleage then you have a messed up season ahead of you, since the winner is automaticly qualified for the next championsleage but you will be playing second devision football on the weekend, but i would absolutly love to see that happen. if it wouldent be the english second devision you would get more money for you playing in the CL then getting tv money for your games in the leage :D

The Champions League is a collective of teams that are from other countries leagues mashed into one. To see which team is the Top team in Europe. All in a tournament style elimination after group stages. It Runs separately from the Premier League or any other league. So if you relegate in another league and win the champions league it just means they get the monetization for winning the Champions league.

“Rom7ooo Steven Gerrard” 🤦‍♂️ that’s the video you need to watch

The EPL is usally the most competitive top to bottom and even into div 2. And most physical.

92 teams in England across 4 leagues (that’s just the top 4 leagues)

That Haikyuu ost is golden

It’s the best league in the world 😭🔥🔥🔥

KGB = Kings Good Boots. An award given to the top scorer of all leagues.

If you want to get in on the ground floor and experience that “Leicester” vibe, you should look to Newcastle. Ton of history and a big fan base, but decades of playing like shit. Til now. They’re the newest club to be bought up by rich new owners. But it’s the Saudi royal family, so they are now the richest club by a mile

I’m an American that’s been a fan of Chelsea since 2010! Check out some Drogba highlights. Chelsea legend.

You need to do yourself a favor and watch some of those old Arsenal fan tv clips. THEY ARE GOLD!!!!
