@@BrianBoru5523 your level of ignorance defies belief, but sadly there are many who think like you and that is the very reason why we're here today. So let me ask you this very basic question. How do you think nationality is acquired? Would birth place be one criteria perhaps? Would marriage be one perhaps? Would ancestry be one perhaps? Would residency rules be one perhaps? Listen, I am not going to waste any more of my precious time "educating" some ignoramuses on how nationality can be acquired. Simply visit your government's designated website (Home Office, or the equivalent in whichever country you're from) and educate yourself there. When you've done that, share and spread the knowledge to other like-minded friends and acquaintances. Jeez !! Someone doesn't have Irish blood so shouldn't be playing for Ireland indeed !!

Lee. I forgot to say this. The Czech player you were referring to who has now retired was Gebre Selassie. He played many years for Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga. I remember when he played for his country against Spain during Euro 2016. He received racist abuse from the Spanish fans. Another great ex Spanish player who played for his adopted country as he was born in Brazil also received a lot of racism before he became a hero as he won Euro 2008. That was Marcos Senna. He used to play for Villarreal with Riquelme. I also want to remind people with this comment that I’m referring to a minority, not a majority of people.

There is racism in most places, imo. I live in India, and there is blatant racism (as defined by the zeitgeist) even between the various regions within the country. Lee is right, its a cultural thing to express racism (in various ways and to various intensity) and the tolerance of the society/culture towards the racism expressed. For e.g. if someone called me/my race names in social media or in public, I would not be that much bothered to the point that it will give me sleepless nights, i.e. in other words, my tolerance to racism belted towards me is high. Everyone has their own levels to these things (does not make it right or wrong), sometimes it's just the way it is.

Africans/Black people as a group suffer from racial amnesia so they'll always forgive. Nobody fears the repercussions of disrespecting us because we want to be real so bad that we'll forgive anyone for any slight. This is the main reason why we were conquered in the first place and our kids had to flee their homes to get abused again, and I see that we've not adapted or changed. We are intelligent, strong, fast, however we lack unity, consequently; anyone, and everyone can attack and or disrespect us. I never knew Mr. Gunner here had said those things about that African brother, and whilst his current position is admirable, nobody puts themselves in the position of that lone brother in the Czech team, imagine the mental abuse he sustained. We actually hate each other and ourselves.

I came across your vid through my timeline randomly. I have a lot of respect for you even though this is my first time seeing you. I am Canadian born, my parents are West African. I feel culturally Canadian. I love hockey and poutine. When I was younger, going to a predominantly white school, I used to get into a fights a lot over my skin colour and me not being Canadian enough. My parents tell me stories of how they struggled settling in because of their skin colour. So for a lot of us there is a lot of pain. As I got older I started to take the Endrick route and not fight just laugh it off because I accepted that people will not fully understand you. I am glad you experienced how it feels to be treated that way to see the light. I hope you didn't see it as fault of yours but just product of the world that we did not choose to be brought up in. Enzo will realize the same. Again big respect to you my friend.

While I appreciate the larger issue, the chant itself is not “racist”. If we speak purely in football terms, in a sporting sense, what the French do is inherently unfair. And they aren’t the only ones to do it. Commonly it will happen between the Brazilians and Portuguese. But if you notice, 99% of decisions on which country to play for are for sporting reasons. This is why you can’t bring up racism, because it’s nothing to do with whether a person is black, white, yellow, brown, whatever. It has everything to do with players of dual nationality choosing the country that represents the best sporting opportunity, not which nation they feel most aligned to. I’ll give an easy example, Brahim Diaz. He played for Spain at all youth levels, but felt he couldn’t break into the current team. He even scored a goal on his only Spain appearance. So he chose to switch to Morocco. Again, from a purely sporting point of view, this is unfair. When France is able to cherry pick the best players from over 20 African countries, plus all those who have emigrated to France seeking refuge, the original player pools become even more muddied. The debate should truly be whether you should play for the country your parents are from ie where you are most related to genetically, or whether you should play for the country you are a citizen of and grew up in. The former is more fair from a sporting sense and the latter is a more modern take on nationality. The problem arises when players are able to choose. If I have an Algerian father, a French mother, but I grew up in England, I basically have the choice of three nations to represent. The problem is that players don’t generally decide because “I feel more Algerian”, they decide to play for Algeria in that scenario because they aren’t good enough to make the other teams. To imply that someone isn’t French but African when they are in fact both is racist. But PURELY from a sporting point of view it makes sense. As usual though people will miss the opportunity to debate the merits of current international football in favor of premature outrage.

Your honesty for your past should be applauded.i have watched you on and off over many years.i don’t always agree with you.i like your views on arsenal but I’m not an arsenal fan so that’s probably why.i don’t agree with everything you said in this video but appreciate your well thought out response and especially your openness of who you were.

I believe people are born sinners. Impossible to be ridden of sin. Therefore forgiveness is a real superpower. We all make mistakes.

Wow, I thought you were a racist this whole time, I remember seeing those tweets and didn't bother to check if you'd change your mind, it take a strong & intelligent man to admit his past errors and change his worldview, well done buddy

Thank you for speaking on this. People want to water what they did down by saying they were judt pointing out their African origins but they did it in a very caricature way. A song saying black french players are all Angolan with cambodian fathers and Nigerian mothers while also being "cometravas" is 100% a derogatory song. Trying to play the whole "We are judt pointing out their nationality" is just disingenuous. They have also been attacking Mbapper since 2018 because of the world cup, but no smoke for Griezmann and Pavard who also dunked on them that match. Only the black French forward is their target. Same with Germany. They best Argentina in the final in 2014 and went on to troll Argentines massively (not to mention beating Argentina before in 1990) yet no "banter song" about them. It is the predominantly black team of French players they continue to have all the smoke for.

This is a good take..me personally living in a 3rd world country, racism is off the charts and now is being curb bc we became a oil-producing nation on the rise. I have been subjected to it numerous times. But one of our neighboring south american countries took refuge in our country bc of their civil unrest. One of the race that became racial abusive towards those people. Its funny bc those refugees had a perception of black ppl bc of their upbringing and were surprised is the africans who actually embraced them and not the race that look similar and same hair texture as them..the reasons i can say this is bc my lady is from that country who took refugee in our country and we have two lovely daughters..and the stories she tell me her people are being subjected too is degrading but just using this to say yes its a issue in south america

And Enzo doing that knowing that he has a lot of French teammates is dumb. Even if they have issues with Mbappe, it's still wrong, and he should own it and do better
