Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

Al-Nassr definitely got a huge win, that three points matters a lot and should be considered a great deal for them. I get that it's not really that much of an amazing situation at the current moment but it is definitely something that is entertaining to see and will be important by the end of the season, you are not just getting 3 points yourself but you are making your biggest rivals lose 3 points as well so it's like 6 points.

Ronaldo played amazingly and his goals were amazing too, everyone online like reddit and twitter and other places are still sharing that first goal where we didn't even see the goal . The fact that he scored even at that point with all that much cloud, it's definitely an amazing start to the game.

Three very important points for Al Nassr, they must to be got full points to come closer with top in the standings. Al Nassr currently only has a difference of three points with Ittihad who are currently at the top of the standings, with that result which is very good for Al Nassr because their gap is not too big. Since Mane joined their attacks line became more unstoppable and makes very difficult opponent, I think Al Nassr should be able to score lots of goals because they have lots of golden opportunities at there. Yes, Ronaldo played amazingly and also Talisca in that match wasn't too bad although he made a mistake because he made a foul, but he contributed very well.

After the game between Al Nassr and Al Ahli the Al Ahli players and coaches were thinking the referee didn't make good decisions and one reason for them to lose the game was because of the referee in this game.
Al Ahli spent and invested a huge amount of money for the players they have in this season and they expect to have better results but Matthias Jaissle seemed unhappy because of the referee in that great game.

[BRINIRHA]

At first glance, it may seem like they are wasting money. However, I would say that they are wasting money when there is no impact to their overall League. The first thing I would say is that it has an impact on the popularity of the league and we are seeing that now. What I want to say is not for now, but for the future. I mean how ready are they to stay consstent with what they are doing right now. I don't want to see what they're doing now have no impact on the future sustainability of their league.
Yes it's an investment, I agree with you, but they have to finish what they started.

Arabs have long been famous for their cleverness in trading and investing. That is why they are currently a very rich country and their citizens are also prosperous. Apart from the fact that they have kerosene mining. They have been reliable traders since ancient times who always travel to various countries.

That is why even this time I believe in PIF's steps in investing its money in the sports sector, especially in football, namely through clubs that are under their control such as Al-Hilal, Al-ittihad, Al-Nassr and Al-Ahli. And I think they buy many football stars as a business or investment that will benefit them. And look now, many TV stations or pay TV are subscribing to broadcast the Arab League in various countries, which was never the case before. And even if you look at the funds prepared for investment in the football sector, there is still quite a lot. So next season there will be many other star players who will be brought in by the clubs under PIF ownership. And slowly other clubs followed suit by buying other European players.

Business in the field of soccer is actually much more profitable than we think. Even though it does involve some things that are quite taboo to talk about. That is why in European football we have long seen many expensive transfers taking place. Those who dare to spend a lot of money definitely have reasons and benefits that they already see the potential for. Because most club owners are financially successful people. So they definitely know what they are doing.

[X-ray]

The presence of Cristiano Ronaldo has had a big influence on the mentality of the Al Nassr squad, efforts to cut points with leaders Al Ittihad have been successful. Even though Al Ahli has sufficient squad depth, Mahrez and Fermino are not yet supported by a good defensive line. After making a less than promising start at the start of the season, now Al Nassr is back on a positive trend by winning 7 consecutive wins.

Now AL Nassr is 3 points away from Al Ittihad at the top of the standings, I think the victory over AL Ahli is very valuable for Ronaldo and his friends. Now Ronaldo is increasingly firmly on the SPL top scorer list with 9 goals, age is just a number for him.

Cristiano Ronaldo is a top player with lengthy experience in football, he's an incredible player that only strives for the best results in games. He has done quite a spectacular accomplishment in football, winning the major trophies in Europe, like English Premier league titles, La Liga, UEFA Champions League and Ballon d'Or on club levels, and also lifting an international trophy, Euro trophy with Portugal when they defeat France Euro 2016 grand final. He's different specie, despite he's old, there's alot he would offered at his present age. I keep repeating this statement, Al Nassr are fortunate to have Cristiano Ronaldo in the team, he brought fame to Saudi Pro League, generating a stream for European players to signed for SPL clubs.

I have comments about him. he is still performing like what he used to be even when al nassr was facing al ahli which was also buying a bunch of players from EPL and i remember some players transferred from newcastle like saint maximint.
Ronaldo is always trying to make sure his stamina will not be drained by his age that is getting older. This is the reason ronaldo is always able showing stable performance since he keeps his lifestyle very healthy and i really appreciate his hard work to always keep his stamina.

I must praise him to be one of best player in the world caused by he was not only able playing so well at his age but his physic and stamina are still strong at this moment.
Ronaldo has almost the same age like modric but he is still deliver for the club. His age doesn't matter a lot but his proper finishing, sprint and many more still good.

Why is there speculation like this on the part of Al Ahli, defeat is still defeat even though arguments like that cannot restore the situation. There are still many matches left and Al Ahli in these matches showed less than optimal play. Whether the referee decision is considered one-sided or not, the referee remains the judge on the field. I'm sure the Al Ahli players admit that Al Nassr current performance is above them. The opportunity in the SPL is still quite open and it is possible that in the next match against Al Ettifaq we can get full points.

It was good to see both Cristiano Ronaldo and Talisca working together to defeat the challenge from Al Ahli. But at the same time, Al Ahli put up a spirited performance as well. Franck Kessié scored their first goal in 30th minute, to take them to 1-2. But by half-time, Al Nassr was leading by 3-1 and then the second goal from Ronaldo made it 4-2 (Riyad Mahrez scored second one for Al Ahli). Firas Al-Buraikan made it 4-3 and after that Al Ahli was trying desperately for the equalizer, but then they couldn't breach the Al Nassr defenses.

Talisca rarely gets the opportunity to play. he was also the top scorer for Al Nassr before Ronaldo and Mane came to the team. I think these three could be a dangerous forward combination for Al Nassr. I think the coach should give him more opportunities to play in the team. He has tried hard to show his quality in this match.

Al Nassr is still several points behind Ittihad and Al Hilal. I think Al Nassr still needs consistency of play to be able to catch up. The battle is still long and they must have many tactics to continue competing.

for the time being, the only players who are Al Nassr scoring machines are Ronaldo and Mane and other players in this team such as Talisca will be additional scorers because since the arrival of Ronaldo and Mane, all Al Nassr players really trust these two scoring machines every time. Al Nassr players who get the ball even if they kick it themselves will certainly be able to score but prefer to pass to Ronaldo or Mane to provide a more precise finish. so that the other players on this team seemed to have almost no chance to score even though everything had been arranged by the coach to provide the right pass for Ronaldo. however, I still say that Al Nassr is still in consistent condition at the moment and I will continue to support it if it can shift first position in the standings with a very small point difference.

At the start of this season Al Ahli performed quite impressively and could be said to be very good because they showed consistent progress and in the last 3 seasons alone Al Ahli experienced a downturn so for this season perhaps they will rise and return to success and become one of the strongest for the Saudi Pro League.

In yesterday match everyone would have known that Al Nassr would be superior and had a big chance of winning over Al Ahli and it was true that Al Nassr won even though Al Ahli also tried hard to equalize but they failed until the final minute.

Now Al Nassr is getting better at improving its standings and only has a few points difference from the teams above it for Ittihad FC alone it is only 3 points different from Al Nassr and in the next few matches Al Nassr can get 2nd or 3rd position if successful get another win.

[rendravolt]

Yesterday Al-Wehda also won decisively against Abha with a score of 4-0 without reply. If we look at the results of this match and look at the standings board indirectly, Al-Wehda is stalking Al-Nassr and also Al-Ahli with a distance of 3 points. Seeing Al-Wehda's journey at the start of this season, which had a fairly consistent performance, means they have good enough capital not to finish at the bottom of the table again. However, for a mediocre Saudi League team, this result is very good as a consideration so that they do not fall into the red zone. However, Al-Wehda also cannot be so calm considering that next week they will face Al-Fateh, who are currently right below them and only 1 point behind.

Yes it's an investment, I agree with you, but they have to finish what they started.

I don't think like you. It is true that the Saudi Arabian government is wasting money. But I will not say that there is no benefit. A few years back we didn't even know about the Saudi League. We started to learn about the league slowly after Ronaldo went to Saudi Arabia. And several more star players from Europe have joined the Saudi Arabian League this season. It cost Saudi Arabia a lot of money, but it resulted in the promotion of the Saudi League. As a result, the world is getting to know about the Saudi League. I think there will be many more talented players in Saudi Arabia in the next few years. If the Saudi league improves, the overall improvement of football in Saudi Arabia will happen.

Come on guys, you can understand more of what I said before. I said that they throw money "when" there is no impact for their league, and here what they do has a positive impact and that is from various things one of which is popularity.
It's part of the process, and I would consider it a very natural thing when money is the first step to doing something bigger. Moreover, they have the ability, yes we know they are rich entrepreneurs who are already known to many people.

Yes, it is true that the Arabs are a nation that is good at trading and investing, I agree about that. I also heard a lot of history in the past that is remarkable from this nation.
Football has now become a business field, so it's no wonder when many rich people flock to start entering the world of football.
Yes it happened after they brought Cristiano Ronaldo, with just one person it has brought a lot of stations scrambling for broadcasting rights to broadcast SPL matches, especially now when it is not just one person, but many popular players who enter and join SPL clubs.

Indeed, this is very surprising. The steps taken by Arab clubs who dared to pay many times more to bring in European star players have indeed received quite mixed responses. Some say it was a bad move. And there are those who also think that the Arab League's steps are brilliant.

I personally think that the Arab League's move to bring in many European star players is also a very genius move. They fish with big bait to get bigger fish.

In fact, you are right that now the Arab League has even been broadcast in almost 140 countries after Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival at Al-Nassr. And according to one of the news stories and Twitter that I read, the Arab League saw an increase in revenue of up to 630%. I think this is not a joke. And this is really a big advantage that the Arab side gets without even having to wait long. There is no doubt that Arabs are good at business.

The game of yesterday was what the Saudi League needs to become a new football light in the world, it was a very fun to watch game between Al Nasrs and Al Ahli. This was a mayor test for the league, because if they failed and was a boring game, nobody will see the next important game between big teams.

I don't even think people would stop to watch it if the previous game was a boring game. I remind you ronaldo has the biggest fanbase in the world. There would still be thousands of his fans were watching him to play.
The fans are only willing to see their superstars in action.

This was a mayor test for the league, because if they failed and was a boring game, nobody will see the next important game between big teams.

What should the Saudi League need after making such a big transfer? I just watched Al Nassr's match against Al Ahli which was very interesting because both of them tried to score goals to get points. From the video highlights, the Al Nassr vs Al Ahli match was very hot in tempo and in my opinion the game of both teams was more interesting than La Liga and the playing style was faster than Serie A and was similar to the playing style of the English Premier League.

Apart from the fast game with a tight tempo, I am interested in the referee who officiates every match in the Saudi Pro League even though there is news that the Al Ahli coach is disappointed with the referee who officiates in this big match.

Although I also thought the same thing when I heard club Al-Nassr. So what I thought of was Cristiano Ronaldo. But lately I have also become hopeful that Al-Nassr will even win even if Cristiano Ronaldo is not playing. Because I think many people here think they want to see Cristiano Ronaldo lift the trophy in the Saudi Pro League. Last season Al-Nassr failed. I hope this season Al-Nassr must be successful. Although currently Al-Nassr is 3 points behind Al-ittihad. But if Al-Nassr continue to maintain their best form and keep winning matches then they will definitely make it to the top in the end.

[Abu-Naim]

Yesterday Al-Wehda also won decisively against Abha with a score of 4-0 without reply.

Al-Wehda's victory yesterday was expected because they were statistically superior over Abha. They won four of their last five matches, all of which they played together, whereas Abha only won one. Al-Wehda have a winning chance based on their past five match statistics and their current league performance, and they won yesterday to move to seventh place in the table.

If we look at the results of this match and look at the standings board indirectly, Al-Wehda is stalking Al-Nassr and also Al-Ahli with a distance of 3 points. Seeing Al-Wehda's journey at the start of this season, which had a fairly consistent performance, means they have good enough capital not to finish at the bottom of the table again. However, for a mediocre Saudi League team, this result is very good as a consideration so that they do not fall into the red zone. However, Al-Wehda also cannot be so calm considering that next week they will face Al-Fateh, who are currently right below them and only 1 point behind.

According to their constant performance, they have the squad strength to stay in the midtable; they only lose away to teams that are not at the top of the table and also lose to the top teams. They are good at home against other average teams, but their squad strength lags behind Al-Nasar and other major teams that have spent a lot of money on transfers, but they will not finish last; they may finish in the middle.

[Slow death]

I agree with what you said, it?s become interesting for now. It seems these rich Saudis dont understand how to spend money wisely.
They wasted their money on me, given that, as you say, in two or three years we?ll be back to square one.
I dont know what they wanted to achieve, however many of them, including Mancini, are there. They have money and they spent, probabily.

come on guys it is a young league, can we be nicer to them?
ok you are right maybe they spent the money badly, but they were in a hurry to get it off the ground, for them it is not an expense but an investment, I don?t see it as such a wrong thing
thanks to this expense people have started to take an interest in the championship, I?d say they?ve hit the point

At first glance, it may seem like they are wasting money. However, I would say that they are wasting money when there is no impact to their overall League. The first thing I would say is that it has an impact on the popularity of the league and we are seeing that now. What I want to say is not for now, but for the future.

I think there will be many more talented players in Saudi Arabia in the next few years. If the Saudi league improves, the overall improvement of football in Saudi Arabia will happen.

most people are paying more attention to this league just because of ronaldo, that is, it is not because of the quality of the league, but because ronaldo has many fans who follow him wherever he goes, even this is happening with other very famous players like Neymar. These very famous players who went to play in Arabia, they have on their team a marketing manager, investment advisor and their career manager, and they must have made analyzes that at their age and in the teams they are on and where they could play at most and the salary they could earn and the assets they could earn, so they give advice to the player that it will be better if the player goes to play in Saudi Arabia

I will give an example of two cases: Neymar and healthy mane

neymar: at psg he played little because most of the time he was injured and at psg they were already tired of him because he was constantly involved in controversies in the newspapers, which created discomfort in the working environment of the psg team. No big European team wanted Neymar if he left PSG, in other words, Neymar's only choice was to go and play in Arabia, where he retired from European football, because I highly doubt he will ever play for a big European team again. so his end was to play in this league

healthy mane: he was the center of attention at liverpool, but greed blinded him and he went to bayern and there he had bad luck with an injury and not playing well, after bayern no other big team in europe would want him, so he didn't have it either choice and went to Arabia where his career would end when there was talk of returning to play in a big league in Europe.

future of this league in Saudi Arabia:

I spoke about neymar and healthy mane to show that these 2 players and all the others who were in the arab league were just for the money and not for any dream of winning some big individual prize and they were because at this moment with ronaldo in this league all the attention is in that league, so national teams will still call up players who are in that league. But, when Ronaldo retires, then no good player will leave a good team in Europe to go and play in that league, and all the news channels will stop talking a lot about that league. In other words, this league without Ronaldo is condemned to return to unpopularity, this is because the government of that country is a dictatorial government, there is no freedom in that country and soccer, just like any sport, evolves with less government interference

soccer is a business, the government only regulates the sector and lets the private sector have a free market, companies buy their shares in the teams or even buy the teams, the league does not get involved with politics and government interference, and so on. that evolves soccer. As long as the Saudi Arabian government puts money into certain teams and runs those teams, that won't work in the long term, China did that and it didn't work. That's not how a league evolves

[Leviathan.007]

Cristiano Ronaldo is a top player with lengthy experience in football, he's an incredible player that only strives for the best results in games. He has done quite a spectacular accomplishment in football, winning the major trophies in Europe, like English Premier league titles, La Liga, UEFA Champions League and Ballon d'Or on club levels, and also lifting an international trophy, Euro trophy with Portugal when they defeat France Euro 2016 grand final. He's different specie, despite he's old, there's alot he would offered at his present age. I keep repeating this statement, Al Nassr are fortunate to have Cristiano Ronaldo in the team, he brought fame to Saudi Pro League, generating a stream for European players to signed for SPL clubs.

Yes it's true. Even when his physical abilities weaken, Ronaldo still has a hunger for goals and victories. This gives motivation and will to both him and the team. Al-Nasr was very lucky with this purchase - after all (let's assume) they could buy Neymar, who seems to be incapable of producing anything other than media noise. It seems that Neymar moved to the Saudi League only so that, against his background, Ronaldo showed once again how great he is 

There are big differences between CR and Neymar of course. Ronaldo is a superstar who is nearing the end of his career as a very hardworking and very determined athlete. He has written his name in history as one of the greatest footballers of all time. He was a joy to watch and he is about to end his career as a role model for millions of young people with what he did on the pitch. I don't know where he is in the list of the best after the greatest of all time, but I think he performed in his prime that could easily be in the top 10 of that list. His biggest misfortune was that he had to continue his football career at the same time as the greatest of all time, but he will always be remembered as one of the best. Ronaldo can live in arabia, china, africa, america, siberia or advertise them. It's none of anyone's business. He's had enough of a career. It's time for him to earn money by being in arabia, and have to note that he's still ambitious. He was offered good money and he didn't get any offers from other clubs at the time, so he went to arabia. I think he did the logical thing. A lot of people would go too.

In Al Nassr they bought a palyer who can be a true leader for their team which is a big advantage for Ronaldo and his team, we all know Ronaldo is more than just a normal player for Al Nassr.
But Neymar is younger and he can palyer for a longer time, there is a chance for Ronaldo to get retired at the end of this season but Neymar can definitely palyer for more years.

As long as the Saudi Arabian government puts money into certain teams and runs those teams, that won't work in the long term, China did that and it didn't work. That's not how a league evolves

Ronaldo moving to the Saudi Pro League heped as a medium to attract other players to move to the SPL as well and it attracted multiple top players around the world to the league this season including the Ballon D'or winner Karim Benzema and let's not forget that even though ronaldo has the highest football fans, fans of other top footballer would continue viewing the match even though Ronaldo decides to retire from football.

 And I don't think he'll want to retire soon, maybe he'll stay for about two more years and before then more stars would be come into the league making it more interesting, of course most of these players came for the financial benefits but atleast their presence is making the league stronger and better for viewing to be entertained by it, it you watch the Asian cup final between Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal you'll understand, it was so interesting and attracted alot of viewers and comments on social media concerning the game.

 However it takes a gradual process to get to the top, and i love how the Saudi's are gradually setting a standard in their league and it even better than it was in the previous years currently and i believe they'll do better than the Chinese league who got crumbled due to the Covid 19 outbreak, corruption, financial issues etc we all know financial issues can be a problem to the Saudi League.
