- Saudi Arabia has been investing billions of pounds in sport and especially football, seeing it as a way to both soften its image and increase its own soft power and influence.

"FIFA: For the game. And for money."
cheeky
shododdydoddy for the game. For the world.
Most importantly, for the collard green!
So basically Infantino is as corrupt if not more than the guy he replaced 🤔🙄
WHOU'DA THUNK IT???? :OO
time to burn it all to the ground tbh
He’s much worse, to some extent blatter was open about his corruption but this snake is posing as a reformer!
Maybe why Blatter was removed!
@@bobj2447 if you recall many said Infatano was Blatters prodigy 🤔
@@777jimothy And Blatter was the prodigy of Havelange, who, as it turns out, was also super corrupt.
Saudi Arabia actually created the confederation cup formerly known as King fahd cup, FIFA who were intially against the idea just took it over
Thanks to the works of the late Prince Feisal ibn Fahad ibn al-Saud He was responsible for the initial investment in football and was the reason Saudi Arabia dominated football in the region back in the 90s.
The first 2 renditions were called the King Fahd cup.
ALLAHU AKBAR
Cyka Blin shut tha fuck up!!
@@cykablin1104 not funny stupid
@@bdot187um he just said god os great or whatever,what's the problem?
How bad are you if the Glazers won't take 4 billion from you?
If Avram Glazer himself was cautious about it then clearly you can be bad enough
That's a very good question.
If there was a deal of this nature, it will be done one way or another. One solution is having a proxy in the deal, a new unknown figure and that is happening all time in the Middle East.
I'm sure that was more of a business decision than anything else.. Don;t want to damage their "brand"
Oh he will. Trust me. When the dust around Khashoggi settles and the time is right, MBS will takeover United and Glazers will happily take the 4b pounds. It's only a matter of time.
Another excellent video. I pay £55 a month for Sky, and they produce very little to justify that price - I'll gladly pay £4.99 a month to support you. Keep up the great work.
you can get all of skys soccer coverage on youtube for free..
@@MattMajcan
I don't have Sky Sports, I was comparing this to the dramas and documentaries that Sky produce. I can't imagine any mainstream subscription TV source would tell the kinds of stories that Tifo do.
@@D4773n oh i didn't realize sky and sky sports were two separate things
@@MattMajcan
Or 'Reddit soccerstreams' + Ace Player
Most, if not all, media these days seek to create drama rather than providing information. This is probably even more true for sports.
Infantino is no better then Blatter.
Even more corrupt
Out of the frying pan.... and into the fire.
One could say worse - Blatter was working for himself, Infantino's working for murderers and human rights abusers
@@arahman137 which makes him more powerful and less easy to get rid of
He's actively worse.
Any1 noticed the FIFA logo at 2:01. Lol
as a saudi i'm soo sad to see a lot of hate in the comments
yea these induans who come to Saudi arab to work are commenting with hate for Saudi arab
I respect your work very highly and gotta love the fact that you show this dirty side of the game that no one else is willing to expose
1 Hard power
2 Soft power
3 Sport power... Saudis gave up excelling at the first two, so let's see where this goes.
Nice
Fuck Saudi
Sport power is literally soft power
They have significant economic power, people overlook their offences so often in the West or make excuses because they want their continued investment and oil. They should be sanctioned as much as Russia for their support of terrorism but that is not going to happen.
Why should Russia be sanctioned they stop to their terrorists and help protect Syria Qatar and Saudi are the problem not Russia
This aged well
Please make a video on the ban that Kuwait got in 2015 ، and when they lifted the ban on 2017 , and Kuwait hosted the the gulf cup , and what happened.
Alex Ferguson 1999 tactics, real Madrid mourinho tactics or Barca under pep guardiola.
Can you please make one of them, it will make my day
Well after more than 4 years, this video makes way more sense now
Amazing that one of the only media outlets that takes on the Gulf Monarchies (and did before Khashoggi) in a real way is a football youtube channel. Not too surprising though considering the pervasiveness of KSA and UAE money that flows through nearly every major media company and think tank. Well done as always Tifo, and I'm looking forward to learning about basketball, too.
It’s sad that fifa will always be corrupt no matter who is in charge
everybody has a price
bro! your content should be bought by Sky Sports, ESPN, Fox Sports, all of them.. they suck at creating content. You go from detailed football analysis to controversial (very well researched) topics! you're TOP!!
You make incredible detailed video's. I love the way that expand your analysis beyond football. Glad I found your channel!
This is nerve racking stuff good job great content keep pushing on
Haven't watched the full video yet, but just want to say I am happy you guys released another video!
I love your guys’d videos so damn much!!!!! These videos really get me more deeper and deeper in football
Saudi 2-1 Argentina this aged well
Top notch content! 👌👍
My favorite channel on TH-cam. Keep up the great work.
Easily the best channel on Football and I don't even watch it. Great job on the content and delivery, everything is perfect!
this video should get way more views, amazing content, keep up the great work!!!!
Incredible channel, top journalism and better ability to communicate the topic than any major news outlet. Well done guys at Tifo. Keep doing your thing!!
Keep up the incredible work!
Amazing work, done by your channel. As a football agent I can honestly say your work/reporting is both accurate and insightful. Keep it up!
When a country you don’t like try to develop itself in sport or any other field you call it Propaganda and soft power but when yours do the same it is just sport
Okey dokey !! 🙂
When a country that publicly executes hundreds of people and restricts fundamental human rights, they should be criticised.
@@GeniusLad32
Criticize all the way you want, we don’t care, WE ARE A SOVEREIGN NATION and we have our own laws like any country.
As long as you’re not a Saudi Arabian citizen, we don’t care if you like the laws or not
@@GeniusLad32 not worse than china and the us
So spot on, love it !
Great stuff, I love the content.
Love your content
Your fan from Kenya 🇰🇪. This is My favorite TH-cam channel. Keep doing the brilliant job 🤙🏿
Trending Videos are you from isli
@@free_wifihesinnocent5553 no12
All these videos about Saudi Arabia, hope you guys don't get harmed too.
Stay away from the SA and they should be okay.
says a peasant from a third world hell hole.
If you want peace
go to Saudi Arabia
.
Literally Saudi ranks worse than India in every single crime rankings
Al Jazeera and BBC cannot be your source
Saudi *is* the very definition of a third world hell hole
@@abdulmoen lmao
I appreciate this kind of stuff.
your voice is a trademark.
Well written and very reliable information guys
absolute great video
Great video!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very good content!
Amazing work Tifo, keep spreading the message! No matter how much money they have righteousness shall prevail.
One of your best videos.
Fantastic Content!!! Your voice is soo good
Brilliant Video
You never fail to impress Tifo. Great job as usual!
Brilliant video I'm impressed
Tifo is one of the best TH-cam channels on TH-cam. Enjoy the Twitter page and the podcast too. Keep it up 👍🏻
Yea
This channels is amazing
From a saudi fan i could say mostly correct but not 100% and the situation in Saudi in much better than you think
Really enjoying the flavor of these latest stories. I love football for the game that it is and that it is the world's game. But wet must also be aware of that means and it's implications. At least that's how I feel. Thank you
I have been a United fan since a decade i.e since i have started watching football but if MBS acquires MU, I don't think i could support them because of moral reasons.
I am hoping that the acquisition doesn't take place ever.
HIMANSHU SONI yeah, same here mate
Would that be Newcastle United or Scunthorpe United or West ham United...........?
lol your club is already run by criminals. You might as well stop supporting now.
@@malahammerNone of them, that would be Dundee United 😀.
@@advenco344 Who's that Criminal?
I am curious.
Habibi. Your voice us amazing.
Infantino is just as if not more corrupt and seems to do anything to get what he wants for his Saudi friends. How can we move forward if these issues still come in. Great video.
Top 5 national teams in Asia are
Sadi Arabia
India
Iran
Qatar
Japan
"And most unusually in Tripoli" I would say it is the most coherent place to play since its an old Italian colony..
Holy smokes! That's a lot to take in!
Quality content. Forza Tifo.
Fantastic work.Good sportjournalism. like this has become rar these days.
I really wanted to join to support you guys but it says content not available :(
Nice open video
Best football channel on TH-cam
Could you do one on cyrille regis
Oh shit all that things happening behind the scenes and what we all see is the pitch the ball and the players.
Al Sheikh was just ousted though.
watcging a marathon of this videos and realised Infantino is more like BLATTER
I think you should expand to a T.V channel.Your content is really good.
Take out football from your title and it still holds true.
Mentioned it before, but will mention it again would like a video on the effectiveness of St.Georges park, is it a coincidence that we now have a seriously impressive pool of youth talent coming through compared to say 10 years ago?
I love football, but I must admit stories like this have dulled my affections over the years.
Corruption ruins everything.
Indeed, football is more than just a game.
Good day, TIFO football. Your videos are educational. I would like to suggest possible topics on Philippine Football like HOW DOMESTIC PHILIPPINE FOOTBALL CAN FINALLY LAST FOR A LONG TIME or WHY PHILIPPINE FOOTBALL AIN'T BIG YET. Thank you and more powerl
their youth teams are the best in asia
K.G right
No amount of soft power through sports will make me forget the situation in Yemen. Not to mention that that their push in sports has had their own controversies. But hey, they've got money, so I don't expect anyone in power to take a stand. Not even Obama did.
what is the situation in Yemen?
@@OwnnOfficial a bloody massacre of the people of Yemen. Look up the so-called Yemen civil war, Vice news has a good piece on that.
Interesting: Your first red money arrow is pointing towards Yemen.
Seems to me that the only thing Infantino is interested in healing is his Swiss bank balance.
Why is the FIFA Club World Cup mostly held in Asia? Why not other continents?
Notifications on!?
Love your covering of the complexity of the middle east 👌🏻
Its not that complex tbh
What gulf? That gulf has a name. You know better Tifo!
Amazing video as always 👍
Thanks Jay - and thank you for the support! We very much appreciate it. - Joe
Another great video. Although I can't afford to "join" - maybe you could set up a donation site as well? I'd be happy to donate.
Thank you! We may explore that option in the future. Good to know folks are willing, we appreciate it! - Joe
3:04 I feel bad for laughing
@Tifo Footbal It's a PERSIAN GOLF, not Arabian golf. Are you receiving money from Saudi too?
Saudi arabiaaaaa السعوديةةةة
3:16 this almost made me shit my pants😂
Al Hilal is one of the sweatiest clubs in Fifa
Do a video about Suriname from Seedorf, Kluivert and Davids to no good players
Tbh I don’t think you should mix it around with politics since everything is subjective. Personally I don’t see anything wrong with Saudi Arabia. A country not having the same values as USA U.K. and France does not make that country “evil”. That’s extremely hypocritical.
Please make a video 48 teams is a bad idea for world cup
There will be very low quality matches
Turki al alsheikh was appointed as the head of the general entertainment authority
World Cup shouldn't be 48 teams. It's ridiculous
lol but that means they are following in a same footstep as Freemansory's
I did not expect to come out of this video respecting the glazers did. Although it might be contrived because of image reasons.
Gianni Infantino is just younger version of Sepp Blatter
8:12 :/ You mean Persian Gulf right?
3:40 Shout To Saudi Arabia
$25 billion dollars.... just let that sink in for a second....
Actually tifo, i am not sure but, as of my knowledge Qatar has the infrastructure to host the proposed 48-team setup. But only needs to adjust the timing/schedule of the world cup matches.
Just pointing it out(on the above comment), I would like to hear your verdict if this is the case.
Nobody cares about anything but money. This should not even be debated.
