Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[Arenga pinnata]

The result from al nassr makes me sure that about how far the superiority owned by al hilal this season compared to the al nassr. It seems like that hilal will be going through this ways for several seasons. It means that hilal will have bigger chances in winning multiple trophies in a row in the upcoming seasons.
Things have changed a lot since Mitrovic and Savic joined the club. Al Hilal played more structuredly than before, proving that al Nassr is not even good compared to Al Hilal, which was fully able to maintain its performance consistently. It's time for al hilal to show to the all of SPL fans the real boss.
Al nassr was lucky enough to win a good trophy last seaso but this season is very different. AL hilal will be owning al ittihad in the next game that will begin soon. Al ittihad may not able to perform use its best squad and this will also make the club to perform better.
I have predicted that if al ittihad probably lose with big scores against al ittihad. Al ittihad is not performing quite well this season. Many people are still questioning the performance from al ittihad and al nassr. Their transfers were not solving the main problems owned by those clubs.

Al-Hilal is indeed a strong team. They have even been what they are now since before the transfer of European star players became more popular. Al-hilal is like Man City in the EPL. So for me seeing Al-Hilal become the most favored team this season is a normal thing. Because just look at previous seasons, Al-Hilal always won trophies in a row. It's just that last season Al-ittihad succeeded in ending Al-hilal's streak of winning titles. Because last season Al-ittihad managed to get the SPL trophy. But this season it looks like Al-hilal will lift the trophy again with full confidence.

Matched today in the second leg of the LCA quarter-finals, the score was still 0-0. Al-ittihad and Al-hilal are still having difficulty scoring goals. But Al-hilal is ahead because they have already got 2 points in the first leg. So they played more relaxed in this second leg.

[SmartCharpa]

Since Benzema joined Al Ittihad, he couldn't really have a good relationship with the fans and they are angry to see his performance because Benzema was mostly injured or was not in the good form and this made Al Ittihad fans to even think about being against Benzema.
Also, the poor performance of Al Ittihad made their coach Marcelo Gallardo to think about stopping working with this French player but recently in the conference after the last game, Marcelo Gallardo said he doesn't have any problem with Marcelo Gallardo and they had a normal relationship.

Karim Benzema has scored own goals and missed penalties this season, so Al Ittihad fans have every right to be angry with his poor contribution. The coach used to get upset with Benzema and bench him in some of their games because he refused to do training with the rest of the team, preferring to work alone and claiming that he was fit enough to play in all of their games. One of the top players in the world struggles to be in form so he can help his team. Although Benzema hasn't been able to produce much this season, the team still believes in him to score goals so they can move to the top of the league. This is a really poor performance, he needs to do something about it.

Meanwhile, for Ronaldo in the Saudi League, apart from being able to earn hundreds of millions of euros per season, on the other hand, it also helps promote the Saudi League. The result is that quite a lot of people are interested and it also opens the gates for European players to continue their football careers here with much bigger payouts. I am curious whether Ronaldo's contract at Al-Nassr will be extended or not considering that his contract will end in 2025.

Cristiano Ronaldo has contributed to the Saudi League's promotion. The Saudi League was unknown to many football fans until Cristiano Ronaldo made the decision to sign with Al Nassr. That is an important achievement for the Saudi League, as we never thought the best players would accept an offer from the league, but they did, thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo's. I don't think any other European club would want to sign Cristiano at the age of 39, I believe he will extend his contract.

[entertheabyss]

They played a tight match, Alex Telles managed to keep them alive until ET, then in ET also Al-Nassr managed to survive the defeat after Cristiano scored a goal in the final minutes, but everything they did was in vain after they couldn't use the chances in penalty round. 12 points behind Al-Hilal in the SPL and knocked out of the AFC, I think there's nothing more that Al-Nassr can achieve this season, hope they can do better in the next season.

Surviving is winning, every elite club will hold their ground and become promising. Bad news for Al Nassr to be knockout from the tournament they believed to reach finals, though there's new opportunities flowing in. Why is everyone surprised and also seeing Al Nassr trends on Twitter. They're elite team and that doesn't exclude them from the main race, they're been eliminated and this is huge loss for the Knights of Najd. Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates suffered defeats, perhapes they will bounce back better in next game.

[kawetsriyanto]

al nasr with his ronaldo was eliminated from the AFC champions cup. lost to al ain a club from the uni emirates of arabia. lost on penalties and what was sad for ronaldo fans in the penalty shootout only ronaldo was able to score for al nasr.

It is quite sad to see Al Nassr eliminated by Al Ain. I think Al Nassr deserves to qualify for the next round. Unfortunately. Al Nassr has a very bad defense, why it seems too easy to get conceded 3 goals in a single match? Al Nassr can't be called as a big team if they still have weak defenders and no quality goalkeeper. I appreciated that the attackers already scored 4 goals in that match. But it is useless because they got 3 conceded goals. Another sad thing is Al Nassr looks very poor in penalty shootout. Only Ronaldo who succeeds to score a goal. It shows that other kickers have no quality in the penalty shoot.

By the way, Al Nassr also needs to change the coach. The current coach looks not capable to handle this team. Although they have some big names on the team but the coach can't optimize the ability of the big names (top players). There is nothing special with Al Nassr performance, they look like an average team only.

Yes, in future matches or in future competitions, Al Nasr must observe and learn from mistakes. The reason is that currently Al Nasr seems to have almost lost hope of winning trophies in all competitions. In the Asian Champions League, Al Nasr failed and only lasted until the quarter-finals. In the Domestic League (SPL), I think with Al Hilal's current toughness, Al Nasr will find it difficult to catch up. So it is very likely that Al Nasr will also fail to become the top of the Saudi Arabian Domestic League (SPL) standings. Perhaps Al Nasr's only hope of getting a trophy is in the Saudi Super Cup competition. Currently Al Nasr has entered the semifinals. However, Al Nasr's toughest challenge in the Saudi Super Cup is that the opponent Al Nasr has to face in the semifinals is Al Hilal.

So actually, if you look at their opponent (Al Hilal), the chances of Al Nasr winning are very slim. Because currently Al Nasr is in a bad condition. Therefore, it seems that this season will only be a learning experience for Al Nasr. That even though the players are great, if they are handled by an inappropriate coach, the results will not be good. Plus, the equal quality of players is very important in a club. Maybe next season Castro should be replaced as soon as possible. Because it seems like his abilities and strategies don't match the players from Al Nasr.

Ronaldo and teammates crash out of the Asian Champions League in quaterfinals after they lost on penalties to Al-Ain despite Ronaldo pulling a come back. This can be very painful especially for Ronaldo who’s still in search of a title at Saudi Arabia. Al-Nassr went into the game trailing by a goal defeat they incured in the first leg, they came very confident in this second leg but were met with early goals again by Al-Ain thereby increasing the aggregate to 0-3. This was a big one but the motivation between the Al-Nassr players never went low as they made efforts.

Lost by penalties is bad but penalties depend so much on player mentality and luckiness. Al-Nassr can not blame that they failed on the penalty spot because of lack of luckiness. Their players are responsible for every penalty shot at the spot and it includes their coach responsibility on training and preparing players to that tough penalty shootout in direct matches.

Al-Nassr even can beat Al-Ain without that penalty shootout if their defense players play better. It is their weakness in this season and it just costs them a painful defeat in AFC. It does not come as coincidence but it is their systematic weakness that must be improved by player transfers, training and tactics.

I was a little surprised by the defeat that Al Nassr received in the AFC Champions League match against Al Ain. Even though the only hope that Al Nassr could achieve was to win that trophy because in the domestic league Al Nassr no longer had a chance to overtake Al Hilal because they had keeping a fairly long distance. Actually I was very optimistic that Al Nassr would win and get rid of Al Ain in that match because Al Nassr had scored 4 goals but it turned out that the penalty shootout ruined everything making Al Nassr's struggle in vain. I also didn't expect Al Ain to be able to score 3 goals thanks to his penalty kick which made the aggregate bigger, I think Al Nassr really has to improve their defensive line as far as I am concerned Al Nassr has weaknesses in the defensive line. Hopefully this can be corrected next season so they can perform even better.

Meanwhile, Al Ain will face quite tough opponents in the semifinals. Later, they will face a strong club in the Saudi league, namely Al Hilal, who just beat Al Ittihad in the quarter-finals. I think Al Hilal will win the match because Al Hilal's current performance is very strong in all respects the competition will be very surprising if Al Hilal can win 2 trophies at once this season, namely the AFC Champions League and also the Saudi Professional League because Al Hilal has a big chance of winning these 2 trophies considering that its rivals have been eliminated first.

It does not come as coincidence but it is their systematic weakness that must be improved by player transfers, training and tactics.

This defeat meant that Al Nassr had to be eliminated from the LCA competition and of course this was defeat that made everyone feel disappointed because Al Nassr had to suffer failure in the quarter-finals.
Al Ain itself performed quite well since in the first leg match they managed to create lead by winning 1 - 0 over Al Nassr and in yesterday's second leg match they managed to match Al Nassr which made the final result draw on aggregate and ended in penalty shootout.
In penalty shootout, the player mentality and intelligence in using feeling will really be tested because they have to be able to track and guess the direction of the ball, but seeing how Al Ain finished the penalty shootout was really great.

Yes, that could happen if Al Nassr could have strong defense and be able to withstand every attack from Al Ain, but in reality they failed and this is failure that must be taken from the positive side as form of learning that Al Nassr must be able to improve the performance of the defensive line.

Improving performance is no longer useful at this time, as I said before that Al-Nassr is 12 points behind in the SPL and that's the accumulated points from 4 match wins, Al-Hilal will certainly not let Al-Nassr catch up with them, absolutely truly a chaotic season for Al-Nassr, no motivation and no mission.

I think Al Nassr really has to improve their defensive line as far as I am concerned Al Nassr has weaknesses in the defensive line.

Agree, they have everything in midfield and attack, but not so good on the defensive side, there's Alex Telles there but it's not enough. I think it would be better if Al-Nassr had one of their CB come from top European teams. Apart from that, the Al-Nassr goalkeeper also had the worst rating in this match, which is a shame.

[el kaka22]

At this point Al-Nassr should start thinking about something else, this isn't really problem for the offense, offense scored so many goals and did their best and there was nothing wrong with them, they are doing all they could to score and win games.

But their defense is SOOOOO bad that, at this point I believe if you just hire four people here on this forum randomly, we wouldn't really be much worse, or at least you know give us 1 million dollars each and give us training grounds and trainers and chefs etc, and in 1 year we will be good enough physically to be at least good as them. They do not look talented at all, they look like they are just terrible, even the goalkeeper is terrible, they need a lot more better players at defense and this has been true all year long.

Yes, recently Al-Nassr has been losing its performance, such as in the match against Al Raed, when the Al Nassr players were unable to get 3 points to shorten the distance between Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal. yes I agree with you now Al-hilal can be said to be stronger than Al-nassr because looking at the players Al-hilal is superior because they have good midfield players, good defense and good attack and I am amazed by the technique and formation used Jorge Jesus always makes good strategies and formations.

Yes, it looks like Al-hilal's future has the potential to be very good and I also believe Al-hilal has great potential to win trophies this season. and indeed in the future I am also sure that Al-hilal will always win various trophies.

Yes, Al-hilal is very good at recruiting good players like Mitrovic and others. and last season's champion Ittihad of course has now lost to Al-Hilal in terms of performance and of course we have seen Al-Hilal's match against Ittihad today at LCA and Al-Hilal managed to win with a score of 0-2 but in the first half Ittihad always managed to keep its goal didn't concede but in the second half Al-hilal played better and in the end Alshahrani and Malcom became heroes for Al-hilal so Al-hilal certainly has a good future.

Al-Nassr already has good front line players. Even their level of goal productivity is also worthy of appreciation. but unfortunately their back lines are very different. Yes, Al-Nassr has a fatal weakness at the back. So they often fail to win matches simply because their opponents are always able to penetrate Al-Nassr's defense and score goals.

Even statistically it is clear that there is an imbalance between defense and attack. Where the attack line is very good but the back line is very bad. Just look, currently Al-Nassr is the second team that has scored the most goals, namely 65 goals so far in the SPL. Al-hilal is still in first place in terms of scoring goals with 70 goals. And yeah it's only 5 different from al-Nassr. But now we look at the number of goals scored against Al-Nassr. In fact, that is the same number as clubs that are considered not strong this season. So the problem here is in their defense.

[rendravolt]

Whether in the Saudi League or the Asian Champions League, Al-Ittihad will not be able to win against Al-Hilal and this is a bitter pill that must be swallowed by all players who have experienced ups and downs this season. Indeed, Al-Ittihad cannot do well this season despite the complicated problems that have no solution yet. New coach Marcelo Gallardo was also unable to provide the best results for his new team in the Saudi league. I think it is possible that if the results remain the same without any significant changes then we will see Al-Ittihad sack their current coach.

As one of the elite teams in the Saudi league and even as the defending champion team, Al-Ittihad should not have to experience this in a short time and even though they are actually quite good in the Saudi league, it's just that the problems at the start of the season are the main enemy that they have to fix to move on. more advanced next season. I want to see Al-Ittihad with their European player recruitment to be on the right track in the title race and this season they can't do that. But hope is still there and it starts from small things and I hope next season they don't mess up again.

So the problem here is in their defense.

A football team consists of different departments and each departments have to function above average to be considered as a great team. This is also effective in every organization and that’s why at each time there’s always An evaluation done. The same is required in a football team who have different departments especially among the 11 players on the field. It’s always in appropriate when one department of the football team seems not to be performing.

 This makes the performance of the other departments looks as if they’re meaningless and most times go unnoticeable. This is the case for Al-Nassr who just got eliminated from the Asian Champions League. This elimination of Al-Nassr speaks quite a lot on how this team is placed and checking it, you wouldn’t want to blame the attack of the this team because they delivered on their duty but rather the defense line is the major challenge of this team. And when the defense of a team is poor, it makes the whole team be in shambles.

 Yea, I think a small club without much training will be able to take on this Al-Nassr’s defense and destroy it. This should be a consideration for the current coach or maybe the new coach who’ll decide to come in. Even when you check them out in their league, yes you wouldn’t help but to see the work of the attackers because they’ve had over 65 goals scored for the team which is very commendable. When you check the goals conceded, then you understand there’s a major problem in this team. If the defense issue of this team is fixed then I think they’ll be one great team to challenge for the SPL title and I guess then they could even win the league too.

But hope is still there and it starts from small things and I hope next season they don't mess up again.

Al Ittihad experienced a very significant decline in performance, they need to completely overhaul their main squad if they want to appear again as title contenders in the Saudi Pro League. In a short span of time, three meetings in two competitions, Al Ittihad were completely defeated by Al Hilal. A very volatile period, and Al Hilal had the opposite by going untouched by defeat.

Benzema has failed to impress since he was brought from Madrid, various rumors about his relationship with the club have circulated, perhaps this is one of the factors why Al Ittihad is experiencing inconsistency. Now that they have lost the SPL trophy and been eliminated from the Asian Champions League, it looks like Al Ittihad management needs to add more top European players in the future.

With the financial strength that Al Ittihad has, it can bring in top European players, and can even recruit top European coaches. If they don't move actively next season, then we won't see them becoming a team that can compete with Al Hilal, Al Nasr or Al Ahli in the hunt for trophies. In the remaining matches this season, Al Ittihad is only trying to maintain its position in fourth place in the standings, so as not to be overtaken by Al Taawon.

But hope is still there and it starts from small things and I hope next season they don't mess up again.

IMO, it will be very difficult for Marcelo Gallardo to bring Al Ittihad to the level the club wants, if there are no significant changes. It's not just a technical problem, strategy, pattern and system, but it is clear that Gallardo needs support from players who can help him to maximize the system he implements. Marcelo Gallardo is a quite experienced coach. Plus, he also has achievements when managing the Latin American League team. however, this coach actually has his favorite pattern, namely 4-3-3. But it seems he is trying to adapt to the players available in the Al Ittihad squad, it is not uncommon for Gallardo to apply other patterns to suit the team he is opposing. Sometimes Gallardo applies an offensive pattern, often playing with a defensive system. From these statistics we can conclude that Gallardo really hasn't been able to make his team's squad the way he wants. So it's very natural that Al Ittihad had difficulty putting up resistance in the match against Al Hilal.

Well, we can even refer to the H2H meeting of these two teams. Of the 10 matches in different competitions, Al Ittihad was unable to even win their match against Al Hilal. So, so there is something wrong with this team. Apart from the problem of team mentality. Player problems are an obstacle for this new coach from Argentina. The point is, whoever will be Al Ittihad's coach later, if Gallardo is fired. it will be difficult for Al Ittihad to compete and compete like its competitors in the Saudi Pro League. So like it or not, if Al Ittihad wants change and competes fiercely like its rivals, in the summer the club will need newcomers who are really needed by the team. One more, big question, is whether Benzema will still stay with Al Itttihad next season.

[Volgastallion]

I think Benzema is lucky to not being taget much more in media for his bad performance and behavior towards the team and the coach, i think the only player who comes from the west and do much worse than him and also comeback to the west was Jordan Henderson.

After this two guys all the remain ones are doing quite well or regular. Well we can maybe talk about Neymar also but that is also another story because he is injury and not performing bad.

[Palakka]

Al Ittihad experienced a very significant decline in performance, they need to completely overhaul their main squad if they want to appear again as title contenders in the Saudi Pro League. In a short span of time, three meetings in two competitions, Al Ittihad were completely defeated by Al Hilal. A very volatile period, and Al Hilal had the opposite by going untouched by defeat.

Benzema has failed to impress since he was brought from Madrid, various rumors about his relationship with the club have circulated, perhaps this is one of the factors why Al Ittihad is experiencing inconsistency. Now that they have lost the SPL trophy and been eliminated from the Asian Champions League, it looks like Al Ittihad management needs to add more top European players in the future.

With the financial strength that Al Ittihad has, it can bring in top European players, and can even recruit top European coaches. If they don't move actively next season, then we won't see them becoming a team that can compete with Al Hilal, Al Nasr or Al Ahli in the hunt for trophies. In the remaining matches this season, Al Ittihad is only trying to maintain its position in fourth place in the standings, so as not to be overtaken by Al Taawon.

Al Ittihad this season is unable to compete with Al Hillal and even Al Nassr in the SPL, despite having Karim Benzema and Kante in their squad this season but in fact they have to lag quite far behind Al Hillal in the league, and even now Al Ittihad must also be eliminated from the Asian Champions League after being defeated by Al Hillal 4-0 on aggregate,  As a team that has spent a lot of money to sign players like Benzema and Kante, of course, the current 4th position in the standings is a sign of failure for them.

To compete for the title next season of course Al Ittihad must immediately evaluate their team after the season ends later, and I think Al Ittihad should act firmly on everything that Benzema has done in this seasons because after all Benzema previous absence from training is a form of indiscipline, indeed we admit Benzema is a top player but I think in a team the management should not distinguish between one player With other players, especially by specializing these players so that in the end the squad will be divided and have no harmony.
Reportedly Al Ittihad has now made an offer to Liverpool to bring Salah next season to the SPL, which to his horror Al Ittihad sent a blank check for Liverpool to write whatever price they asked to release Salah in the bid proposal.

[hahay]

I think Benzema is lucky to not being taget much more in media for his bad performance and behavior towards the team and the coach, i think the only player who comes from the west and do much worse than him and also comeback to the west was Jordan Henderson.

After this two guys all the remain ones are doing quite well or regular. Well we can maybe talk about Neymar also but that is also another story because he is injury and not performing bad.

If so, then it looks like they purely accepted the offer to play in the Saudi Pro League just to get a big salary. Because afterall, if their goal is purely to give the best results to the team then of course they will make great efforts in every match like they do in bigteams in Europe. Indeed, it is no longer somethingstrange if a case like this happens because after all, without winning the title but they will basically still receive a largepayment . So ya, with this factor, at least it makes them feel reluctant to play as well as they did in the previous team in Europe. But at least, there is also a statement that they will still play in the Saudi Pro League and thus, maybe in the followingseasons they can prove good results for the team, although I still not completely sure. Because after all, about Ronaldo also failed to bring Al Nassr to get a trophy in the Saudi Pro League and also in the AFC Champions League.

What do you mean? Benzema is also targeted by the media. You can see some bad news about him on some articles.

https://www.givemesport.com/whats-going-wrong-for-karim-benzema-at-al-ittihad/
https://www.goal.com/en/lists/karim-benzema-saudi-pro-league-al-ittihad-nightmare-few-signs-ending/blt6addb8a60ee121f3

The media always wrote interesting news whether it is true or not. In my opinion, it is normal if Benzema couldn't perform well now because he got a severe injury for a long time and he still adapt with the new atmosphere in Saudi league.

Regarding Jordan Henderson, he joined to the wrong team in Saudi. I still don't understand why Jordan Henderson could join Al-Ettifaq. It is just an average team in PSL, Jordan Henderson should join a better team. Finally, he didn't feel comfortable to play in SPL and he moved to Ajax.

Neymar may also end up his career in Saudi like Jordan Henderson. He never recovered his injury, he only got a high salary with no contribution for the team. I think Al Hilal will put him on the transfer list if there is no progress with his injury.
