The fact that Kenya has to depend on a player that is already 41 years old indicates why Junior is not a strong team anymore and why they are also suffering. In fact, the other two top scorers from Kenya were also more than 33 years old. And the fact that they have been able to reach the finals of the continental cup Africa also shows that the situation of cricket in Africa is not good at all. The final was really exciting and close in the end. Congratulations to Uganda for being able to win this tournament. Really did not expect this type of performance from them. I also agree that they have actually improved. Don't agree with rest of Africa, but cricket in Kenya has been on the decline for a while. But then Africa is the region where maximum growth has been attained over the last decade or so. I have been following various tournaments such as the T20 World Cup Qualifiers and Women's World Cup qualifiers. At this point, there are close to 20 countries who play cricket regularly, with two test nations (South Africa and Zimbabwe) and two other strong teams who are capable of qualifying to major ICC tournaments (Namibia and Uganda). And the best part is that almost all of these teams mainly rely on native players. @Sithara007 I have followed SA only in their international matches but I feel that they’re no longer the dominant force they once used to be and maybe they’re having more local matches like you say but in international tournaments they’re not performing that well. Furthermore the debate about native and non native player’s is not really worth it cause those team’s that rely on outside player’s do it due to the current rule’s and while it’s harsh to other team’s nothing really can be done about it. |

Austria track is normally a quite short one normally but rain can extend lap times quite much for certain. But not even heavy rain can be enough to stop Verstappen from winning this race that easy of course. In the past we were talking about Hamilton's being a wonderful driver under rain.
But now after entering this new era in the sport Verstappen has started to put on a great show thanks to having the fastest car on the grid also. I would love to see Hamilton getting faster in time and reaching the level to be able to compete with Verstappen again. But I guess we will still need to wait for that to happen for a long time.
I am afraid that won't happen.The reason being a simple one,the age difference,no matter how great of a driver Hamilton maybe his time has passed now and I doubt if he can win another Championship even when he will have a Mercedes able to compare with Redbull,I don't see any great personal performance from him with Mercedes and if he is the 7 times World Champion he should surely do a great performance,I am not saying winning the race but to make some nice overtaking that his experience can do. Having said that I think this season is already over as Perez is the most mediocre driver on the grid for me having the same car as Verstappen and struggling to at least be second,he is far from being second so Verstappen is already Champion this year and we should wait next season to see if any team is able to match Redbull pace,for this season we can already forget about such happenings. @swogerino I felt that Hamilton could have retired at his peak as the most successful driver but instead he decides to stay back and continued losing his title one that he easily use to win few year’s ago. Furthermore unless Mercedes can fix their issues overnight which we all know won’t happen I doubt that he’ll win and it’s such a shame that after such a legendary career he’s in such a low spot. |

@blue Snow did the image just exclude the Manchester Clubs? I’m surprised because I thought that they would be included in the promotions. Furthermore City will definitely start as the favourites but Arsenal will definitely push them and while I thought that this would be Manchester United’s season but now I feel that the takeover saga is derailing their transfer plan’s and at this rate it might be too late to get Ten Hag desired targets which will definitely have a negative effect for the club as the season continues. |

Alcaraz vs De Minaur should be a good final but I expect Alcaraz to come out on top. Bublik vs Rublev should be interesting but I expect Rublev to win as I think he's of a slightly higher quality than Bublik.
agree here, and with odds given @1.65 for Rublev and @1.29 boosted for Alcaraz, that seems as a nice Sunday combo Rublev is not a grass player, but he can play, and Bublik is far from top player, been lucky against Sinner, and defeated Zverev, but didn't show much overall Alcaraz proved that first match was just adjustment to new surface, and won all other matches without set lost, Minaur is good, but odds are as it should be I'm really surprised to see Bublik reach the final over at Halle, I'm surprised with the odds for Rublev, I thought he would be more favoured to win this. At 1.65 it hard to pass up on this opportunity. de Minaur did really well against Rune, I'm happy for him but as you say Alcaraz is rightly the favourite he looks very strong on grass so far. I'll be betting on Rublev and Alcaraz but seperately, not a combo bet. @CasperBGD even I’m surprised that Rublev is not the ultimate favourite to win this finale because I feel that he’ll easily crush Bublik when the match starts. Furthermore Bublik did play well to reach the finals but I’m yet not confident on his ability to beat Rublev and if he yet manages to somehow beat Rublev then this will be a very big upset for all the gamblers as I’m sure many like me are wagering on Rublev to win this final’s. |

Friendly match is a little more less being competitive and this makes to come in ease for us to adjust to the dictate of the mandate as a team that we have to play them at ease and at every comfort because no much attention is needed but it's played to know how week and strong a team can appear to be against eac other and also helps to know the measure to the level of their performances each when playing.
Less competitive but it doesn't discourage people from coming to the stadium and watching the game, and it doesn't seem to reduce the habit of bettors to bet on matches like this which is why we see bookmakers providing markets for friendly matches. If you want to bet, we can take more risks by choosing a weak team but of course the difference shouldn't be too far away, if a team that is considered weak gets odds of up to @20.00 or even more then you can be sure it's only a one-sided match, but if the team is weak get odds under @10.00 there is a chance to win or at least end in a draw, the odds of the bookmakers can't always be right and also wrong. @Strongkored not sure if I’m just unlucky but whenever I’m wagering in a friendly match I feel that both sides look disinterested to win and it ruins the mood for me as a gambler. Furthermore from my experience the key for friendly matches is to see which reserve player’s are included because these player’s usually will go out of their way to impress the coach and can guarantee goals which can lead to the country winning at least that’s what I personally believe. |

I can't claim for a code with waggering 7-12K Waggering, but let's see this weeks if these happening again or not.
You could not claim the codes because there were too many errors while claiming the codes but if you keep trying you should have claimed it all the codes. Similar error will always happen as Stake confirm that their system is not designed to cover thousands claim at the same time so the only thing you can do is keep trying to claim the code. You are right, in the last code I failed to claim 2 times but I keep trying to open the page/refresh and work even I was late for about 2 minutes fortunately the code is still available, Initially I thought my connection was problematic but strangely errors continue to appear from the beginning to the last code until finally I realized maybe the server was busy. By the way, do you get more bonuses this week? this weekly bonus is delayed a few minutes to avoid the same problems as the last weeks so I assume there is an extra bonus. @BitcoinHunt3r this is where experience matters a lot as often we tend to give it up after few attempts but the key here is to keep ok trying and hope to get lucky but I too would advise never stop trying. Furthermore Stake should try and upgrade their system as it’s only growing bigger by the day hence it makes no sense they’re not upgrading their systems to handle such a big volume of user’s. |

FUN token doesn't really react to that The token price will react as BTC is the denominator which means when BTC is stronger especially sharply up on a particular day that should put pressure on that price. Same as prices are certain to rise when a currency value falls. So thats a definite relationship but I agree if people are positive on BTC it probably does help the FUN token price longer term. If we compare the recent low for FUN price in dollars and cents to the price today, its risen by 44% which is no small amount. To then want a Satoshi quoted price rising on top of that value gain would be exceptional, longer term I would estimate Bitcoin performing well raises the interest and requirement for 'safe harbor' of long term sites like this. Whatever the narrative I do think its a fairly good guess this site does well alongside bitcoin usage and market generally. However the price wont move immediately in parallel to BTC. @STT till date there’s yet lots of doubts as to what effects the price of Fun tokens and maybe a tutorial video can be made on this by team Freebitco (pardon me if it already exists). Furthermore an live FAQ session can be done where the investors can ask more questions about what makes the price go up and down, as that’ll help remove the confusion that often prevails with new holders. |

But I have a little question, why do so many of them when playing in age groups, they can be balanced or even better, but when they are seniors it seems that it changes from what happened in the age group. I'm sure one of them is federation or good coaching at a young age, but when they enter senior age they are just let go, or they don't want to get out of their comfort zone. Or the leagues in every country make them unable to develop their skills? or is there something else?
It’s like anything in life, you have to work as hard as you can to get the maximum out of your skills. Sometimes these young kids aged 19/20/21 get massive contracts. They can be earning over $50,000 a week when they’re basically only just out of diapers. Maybe they get a 4-5 year contract and stop training hard, they think ‘I made it’ and stop pushing themselves. Alcohol and women can distract them maybe, late nights in bars, bad influences around them. Players like Ronaldo and Messi gave 100% every single day of their lives in training, they live clean. Some players make it big, most don’t. Obviously injuries can destroy young players, they could peak too early too. There are many reasons why but attitude and dedication is a must to succeed. Ah yes yes, I understand that, or in other words they are quickly satisfied with what they get at a young age, so there is no motivation for them to be even better in the future, when they enter the mature age as professional athletes. Their mentality can only be at that level so that when they enter a mature age their abilities cannot improve and are fixated on just that position. And it is true that lifestyle will greatly affect them. Their tendency towards a messy lifestyle will indeed destroy their career. Indeed, when you want to achieve something big, it requires sacrifice and one of them is when other people enjoy something that is fun, they have to avoid it in order to improve their abilities. @LFC_Bitcoin I won’t be surprised if more player’s chose the easy way by joining the SPL and then stop improving themselves because they’ll be able to retire early and without much efforts. Furthermore I yet value player’s who push themselves to improve and one player that comes to mind is Rashford who’s worked hard and didn’t let PSG money distract him and yet continues to develop himself. |

At an increasingly old age, many other players have started to have no faith in Ronaldo and there have been many cases where one of his own team, if in front of the opponent's goal, prefers to shoot directly rather than having to provide feedback to Ronaldo to have a chance to score.
For the Portuguese national team, I admit Ronaldo has been very meritorious and has provided many goals for Portugal.
If it is said who will surpass Ronaldo's achievements in scoring goals, I have two player options, namely Mbappe and also Haaland.
It's not that, he also has a very bulky temper and ego you must always play for the team and not for yourself, if you pass the ball to a teammate you have more chances to score, the team comes before you at least so I think Yes, I know that Ronaldo has a very big temperament and ego. Not infrequently, he often experiences debates and several small disputes with his team-mates. But actually Ronaldo is a very great player and he even always manages to take advantage of opportunities to score goals, it's just that there have been several incidents where his team-mates have started not to trust Ronaldo to be able to score goals. But this is also a natural thing because every player wants to have the opportunity to score goals and become a player who can bring his team to victory. Keep in that Ronaldo not trusted and often fights with his own colleagues even though he is one of the greatest players. He has again made one of these statements that make him no more popular among his team mates. He is doing it knowing that this doesn't increase the team's aspiration to act and feel like a united group of players. it was again about his ego and how many records he is holding and that he isn't hunting the records, but the records are hunting him. It's ok if thinks that but why should he rub all those words straight into his team mates' faces in public? It helps as long as he makes the goals and wins the games, but it doesn't help when they get into a crisis. They wouldn't be willing to help each other then. But he is who he is and that is never going to chance  @tiCer personally I feel that Ronaldo should not be recalled for an international match unless it’s his farewell match because there’s not much that he can offer to the team. Furthermore the Portugal coach should move on from the Ronaldo era and start building a team for the future and once again I’ll say that call Ronaldo but only to offer him a farewell nothing more. |

West Indies Vs Nepal
West Indies vs Nepal World Cup Qualifier Match. Nepal won the toss and decided to bowl. Losing the toss and batting, West Indies collected 200 runs for 3 wickets in 36 overs. West Indies were under a lot of pressure after losing wickets in the beginning. Nicholas Pooran and Shai Hope both led the team with excellent performances. Shai scored 85 runs off 98 balls, and a few runs would be centuries. Nicholas Puran is unbeaten on 79 off 66 balls. West Indies can score 320+ today. I think West Indies will win today.
West Indies came out to bat first and set a target of 339 runs in 50 overs. West Indies team batsmen Shai Hope and Pooran batted brilliantly. Shai Hope scored 132 runs from 129 balls. Nicholas Pooran scored 115 runs from 94 balls. It seems that these two batsmen are T20 match. came to the field to play. However, the rest of the batsmen of the West Indies team could not make good runs. If the rest of the batsmen could have batted well, then West Indies could have given the target of more runs. West Indies won by a big score of 101 runs. What a brilliant batting performance for the West Indies team by Shai Hope 132 and Nicholas Pooran 115 runs inning They achieved a formidable total of 339 runs in 50 overs thanks to their excellent partnership. With 132 runs off just 129 balls, Shai Hope's spectacular century amply demonstrated his tremendous talent. These two batsmen were in a league of their own since they performed like they were in a T20 match. The remaining West Indies batsmen weren't as effective but their efforts win the match easily. Thanks to Shai Hope outstanding effort deservedly earned the honour of being named Player of the Match for his remarkable century. West Indies managed to put up a big total and win by 101 runs, thanks to the incredible efforts of Shai Hope and Nicholas Pooran. After falling victim to some early wickets, the two players were able to turn things around and bring their team back into the game. Shai Hope is undoubtedly the backbone of this West Indies side, demonstrating a completely different style of play compared to the rest of the squad. He is undoubtedly one of the most consistent ODI batters at the moment. I've some words for Nepal as they well played against a team with such big-name players. West Indies made a great comeback with the last match. They were able to build a run hill which resulted in West Indies winning the match by a big margin. But the West Indies team didn't gain credibility. This is because two batsmen had two centuries but the rest of the team could not do anything. If they can qualify for the World Cup with this team, it is not unusual for them to fall badly. Everyone must cooperate to take the team to a good level. Otherwise their journey will stop early. But since that is still a long way, they must be praised based on current performance. @onecall123 how the time’s have changed we are glorifying WI win that too against Nepal and I hope that this is a start of something big rather than a one off victory. Furthermore I would love to see WI back in the top 6 at least because they deserve to be there because of their past glory and this current generation has lots of talent but they just need proper guidance now. |

ICC is to blame for everything bad that has happened in cricket in my opinion. I said that because they simply couldn’t actually hold that authority that they should have. What is the point of having a sports body if they are controlled by the big four teams? ICC should have taken a firm step in this situation. Back then it was the Pawar/Srinivasan era. These two were only bothered about making money for themselves. Only when the mafia was kicked out by Jay Shah and Anurag Thakur, the horror story ended. And this is also one of the reasons why I don't oppose Jay Shah too much. Because the alternative is a lot worse. The only difference is that instead of Pawar/Srinivasan, it will be their nepotistic children (Rupa Gurunath and Supriya Sule) who are even worse. In less than a year, general elections are due in India. If NDA loses, then we'll again see Pawar/Srinivasan controlling the ICC. @Sithara007 even the current members of ICC are just interested in making money nothing more because the way matches are scheduled and the way IPL was granted the extended window says it’s all. Furthermore I don’t know if the alternative is worst or no but the fan’s and the media should try and make the ICC accountable because it’s high time they stop being authoritative and start taking making decisions. |

So far they seem to have found a smart way to increase the quality for their team. When they sign some who have an expired contract they can save a lot of money in that way and consolidate their finances. It is not yet known how many players more they are trying to bring to Barcelona, but they will need a few if they want to attack again. But they do need to improve their overall approach since they are in desperate need for a surplus. The idea is probably the same, as long as they are sure the player fits Barcelona's needs then I think Xavi would recommend the player to sign. Ilkay Gundogan is a good midfielder for Barcelona, so I think Barcelona were lucky to sign him for a few seasons. Xavi may still need a few other good players who can balance his team, but I don't think he will be too pushy due to the team's not-so-good financial condition. Xavi already has a good alternative to the former Manchester City captain. Ilkay Gundogan can act as a defensive midfielder although De Jong and Kessie can also play in that position. So Xavi has found what he was looking for after he lost Busquets, while in other positions I think Xavi also needs a good right-back instead of giving Araujo and Kounde a lot of chances. @shogun47 I believe his arrival signals that De Jong is now available for sale because by doing this they can get solid revenues too and further invest in the squad. Also with this smart signing now I’m keen to see who else will they target because this transfer signals that they’re keen to target winning the champions league now and if they can add more quality player’s then they’ll definitely be a force to reckon in the champions league. |

What they have done in the last season is about what they did in the seasons before as well. i mean the overall result. But when their goal is to finally overturn Bayern's dominance in the Bundesliga, the result has to be much better this time and I say much better because I don't believe that Bayern will underdeliver again like they did last season. Often times when Bayern got into danger or their titles got into danger, the response was that they became much better afterwards. And it would be nothing but a surprise if they have the same chaos again. Therefore, if Dortmund wants the top of the table, there can't be any excuses in any of the games that are a must win game on paper. They have to meet the expectations then. That's their business and how they earn money for their team. Maybe their first goal is to earn money and just be on top of the table to get the champions league ticket. Been more than ten years since we didn't see Dortmund win the Bundesliga title and from what we can see they are not even trying hard for it. In a football club money is very important because club finances can make the club stronger by buying qualified players. This happened to Dortmund maybe because they really wanted and focused on the Champions League which is a very valuable League for any club. But if you think about it correctly, I'm also not sure that Dortmund can have that title because their opponent is another big club that is far more powerful. For the Bundesliga itself, Dortmund is still lagging behind Bayern Munich and this should be a lesson for Dortmund so that in the future they can focus on the Domestic League first before aiming to win a trophy in another, higher league. @tusandii we have held this discussion many times and each season they have repeated the same mistakes i.e. selling their best player’s and now with Jude gone I wonder how will they compete in the Bundesliga. Furthermore unless they stop selling and buy a ready made superstar this season I doubt that we will see them win the Bundesliga this season too and I guess that means Bayern will comfortably win the Bundesliga again. |

Unfortunately, Croatia once again missed a great opportunity, but I think that to win against the biggest ones you still need to play at a much higher level. I honestly expected a much better game by both teams with a lot of goals, but this new Spain is not yet as good as the one from the last European Championship when it beat Croatia in extra time.
Penalty kicks are always a lottery, and this time luck was on Spain's side. Still, being in the finals for a small country of 3.8 million people is also a great success, especially if we take into account all the successes in just over 30 years of existence of the modern Croatian state.
I was so sad that I forgot to post it here. I lost the bet because I thought Croatia would win, but not only the bet, I wanted to see Croatia champion to crown a great job they did during these last years Despite not being the media's favorite team and not being as highlighted as other teams, Croatia played very well, took all the competitions they played seriously and the work of all players and coaching staff should be recognized The results in the last few years are better than many favorite teams that have not been able to play well for years The final match was not a great match as we expected, and when it went to penalties I confess that I was "almost sure" that Croatia would win A curiosity, it had been 15 years since Croatia lost a penalty shootout, since Euro 2008.All in all, the team is a great pride for Croatians. I hope they continue with this constant good results and now they have to qualify for Euro 2024 Note - I still managed to profit with the final phase of the championship because the odds of Croatia were very good, and if it continues to be like this, there are good profits to be made in the next championships  @rdluffy I was upset too when I saw that Croatia lost because I felt that they would win it for Modric and give him a proper send off as he definitely deserved to win this trophy. Furthermore you’re right when it goes into penalties nothing really is guaranteed but yet I thought that Croatia would prevail because of their winning mentality but in the end destiny had other plan’s and Spain ended up winning the tournament. |

On the other hand, there are many factors that make it difficult for a club as big as PSG to be successful in the ucl, the most obvious of which is the coach. The PSG coach is poor in tactics and all the players are too dependent on Lionel Messi and mbappe. because it's very easy for opponents to lock in the movements of Lionel Messi and Mbappe. Especially now that many star players have left PSG, of course this will be even more difficult for PSG. Yes, it is exactly as you said that the most suitable to train PSG right now is Enrique.
Apart from a new coach like Enrique who might be a better fit for PSG next season, several players who have left for other teams also need to find a replacement so that there is a balance of performance for PSG next season. Because if you are only rich in tactics, it will not be enough for PSG to be successful if the players are not very good at carrying out the tactics of their coach. So it seems that there are still many things that PSG must improve from now on in order to improve their performance next season. @wmaurik Poch wasn’t a bad coach but he failed at managing the ego’s of the PSG player’s and hence I feel that Enrique will do a better job due to his vast experience. Furthermore I’m keen to see what kind of rebuild will Enrique do because buying star player’s has back fired and Mbappe is bound to leave next year hence he has to rebuild this squad immediately. |

Even ittihad and hilal have been preparing so much money for gundogan.
I hope that gundogan will be staying even longer in the club. It's very good for his career and he will be able to become city's legend.
Gundugan is already a city legend. He has won everything there is to win at a City. If I were him I would leave now. It's better to leave and be remembered as a top player than staying there till he's too old and starts catching the bench. Gundugan is a very good player. I even feel he's underrated, because he's a very integral part of that Manchester City team. De Bruyne can be missing and Man City would manage but when Gundugan is away the team suffers. Then there is the way Gundugan always steps up at the big moments to save Manchester City. He has done his all for City so at this point it would be best if he goes to Barcelona and search for more glory. But what is the difference between a Gudogan in June and a Gudogan in August? What is the reason to leave the best team in the world when he is the captain and one of the most important players in the team? It is not like he played so many games until June and won't play any games from August and afterwards. It is onto him to keep the performance and if he does why would Guardiola decide to not let him play? @shogun47 Gundugan is definitely a City legend and whatever he decides will be respected by the City fan’s and I’m sure that he’ll be welcome back if he decides to join them in any role. Furthermore I feel that he should join Barcelona and further cement his legacy as he’s an incredible player and then after a year or two he should join the Saudi league. |

I don't know why West Ham are valuing Declan Rice this high, the transfer fee is absolutely outrageous and i don't even think Rice is worth half of the money West Ham are requesting. It has become the norm with English players, the likes of Jack Grealish, Jude Bellingham and others who were sold for an outrageous amount of money.
Declan Rice wants to move to Arsenal, and for now they are the only team that have sent a bid (2 bids actually) to West Ham, though the bids were rejected, i think Arsenal are going to make one last bid for Declan Rice and i expect West Ham to accept it, or else another team might join in the race to sign him.
David Moyes is willing to allow Declan Rice leave this season and is looking for a replacement. Clubs are competing to sign him, but Arsenal is the frontrunner with their proposals. English players are highly prized in the market, and despite their erratic peak, they are constantly overhyped in the transfer window. Last summer, Westham unexpectedly outbid everyone else for Declan Rice. The possibility is owing to the new club's achievement, winning the European Conference League title, which alone initiates the bid for the club's most important player. @Coyster it’s a neat trick as they know many club’s want him and they’re trying to drive up his prices by taking a hard stand despite agreeing publicly that he’s available for a transfer. Furthermore he’s definitely worth $80 million but anything above $100 million is way too much and I wonder if Arsenal will yet chase him because I feel that they should just walk away and hope that West Ham lower their asking price so a transfer can be sealed. |

If AC Milan aims to win the title next season then they should definitely prepare a big fund and add the necessary talented players to the squad. AC Milan does not have a strong enough squad to win the title. AC Milan qualified for the Champions League. Consistency is difficult to maintain in both the Champions League and Serie A. And so AC Milan needs to build a more experienced and stronger squad. AC Milan conceded 43 goals last night. The defense was not strong enough. And so if you want to do well in the next season, the first thing that AC Milan needs to do is to strengthen the defense.
However, it seems that AC Milan has not shown much of their aggressiveness in the transfer market this season. Because it was rumored that the club was still preoccupied with changes in management within the club. because the position of Technical Director which was originally filled by Paolo Maldini seems currently vacant. Because Paolo Maldini has been sacked from his position and this certainly makes club management have to find a replacement immediately before starting the hunt for players. And yes AC Milan does need players to strengthen their back line. which was their weakness at the end of last season. @kro55 I don’t think that they have a big budget to splurge this season and unless they sell some player’s I doubt that they’ll be able to reinvest into buying new player’s. @Uruhara these management issues should be always fixed before the transfer window starts so the team can prepare well but if the new management doesn’t deliver then this season could end up in a disappointing fashion for Milan fans. |

As a matter of fact, I am not a big fan of test cricket. But still, I would argue that players who are not interested in test cricket should not be a part of the test squad. While watching the WTC final, this was the impression that I got from the Indian players. It seemed as if they are paying just for the sake of it. The aggression and commitment that these same players were showing while participating in the IPL a few weeks ago was suddenly missing when they were playing against Australia at the Oval. In fact they looked quite happy when the match was over.
Yeah, now things are going to be divided for the two formats like we will have white-ball and red-ball here things are tricky for the boards because they need to have few players set for the red-ball which give their best even across conditions and also have good first class practice which give them good amount of money and white-ball players just need to be settled in this format which will create good body language and success. We're already having too many issues in different boards and white-ball is now also main source of income for the players and boards, so they need to reduce teams in red-ball and have two teams in all boards which will surely burden still a good way to stay in competition and increase quality level in WTC for the future. Having just 6 to 8 teams in red-ball format and going with 16 to 20 teams into white-ball will give better results and involvement from players as well. @sithara007 except Rahane and Pujara none of the playing 11 really cares for the Test match format and even these two tend to underperform a lot hence it’s high time that a separate test specialist squad is created for team India. Furthermore the Indian test team needs a new strategy as the current squad is ineffective and their plan’s won’t yield any positive results especially in the test match format. |

Yeah, that makes other european players are feeling confident to go there. Ronaldo has proven even though he must be playing in the different time zone and season, it's not a big problem for ronaldo. The players can start to adapt with the environment slowly.
That must be the main reason for other players are also interesting to go there. Benzema, kante, mendy, kouliball, ziyech and many more. They are interesting to play for saudi clubs.
They wanna be a part of the extensive projects that already planned by saudi clubs. Im very glad that if ronaldo will not become the only one who played there.
He will be having more friends to come, especially benzema as his best friend once ronaldo was still playing on real madrid,.I hope this will make saudi league to be even better.
I still don't understand the craze surrounding European leagues. The club owners treat their players badly and refuse to release them even for tournaments such as the FIFA World Cup and Copa America. And let's not forget the threats from European clubs when FIFA decided to conduct the 2022 World Cup in November-December. The threat was that they will not allow their players to participate in the tournament, as their league is more important than the FIFA World Cup. Finally the Saudis have put an end to the European monopoly and now their arrogance should be a bit reduced. SPL still has a long way to go, but at this point it is moving in the right direction. @Sithara007 player’s yet prefer European club’s because of the huge fan following plus known recognition that they get for achieving new records for these clubs. Furthermore while SPL is stealing lot of quality player’s most of them are aged hence the European club’s won’t bother much at least for now but once young stars too start too leave then they’ll go into panic mode and it’ll be interesting to see how they’ll secure their young stars amid interest from SPL clubs. |
