Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[Toro iskandar]

Ronaldo definitely doing great, had a few bad games and that was sad for him, but he made a good comeback, a hattrick is not that bad. I am not saying that his job is easy, but also it is not "really" as hard as people make it to be. We should not be considering the situation to be superbly amazing, yeah he had a hattrick that's great but it was against a weak Saudi Arabian team.

If you put the team he scored it against as a ranking in all of the world, you will realize why it is not a such big deal. Don't get me wrong, there are so many players from Europe that went to Saudi league and none of them managed to do this, which means that while it may not be that difficult, it is also not that easy neither, it is still an achievement nonetheless.

With Cristiano Ronaldo's hat-trick against Al Thae, of course it is very beneficial for Al Nassr by adding points and getting closer to the top of the standings which is still occupied by Tin Al Hilal as an unbeaten club. date.
Yes, even though in previous matches Cristiano Ronaldo performed very badly and made many mistakes, whether intentional or not, in the match against Al Thae Cristiano Ronaldo showed all his fans that he can still play neatly and well.

And this also brings a breath of fresh air for Cristiano Ronaldo that he can still be said to be worthy of being the world's top player because of his excellent performance with a very beautiful hat-trick and so far Cristiano Ronaldo has succeeded in making this hat-trick. very significant, namely scoring 64 goals throughout his football career to date. However, with the return of their good performance, Cristiano Ronaldo and his friends will try their best to catch up to the top position of the Al Hilal Club.

[Palakka]

Al Hilal currently has an advantage of 12 points over Al Nassr. And I believe this is not going to be possible for anyone to actually give them any competition. And I think sometimes people forget that Al Nassr is literally depending on a 39-year-old player. I don't know how many 39-year-old players are there who can actually carry a team like this.

Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if Cristiano Ronaldo actually joined Manchester City instead of Manchester United. Maybe he would still be playing for Manchester City and still have a really good performance.

Anyway, let's talk about the Saudi league. I really want to see the teams from the Saudi League actually take part in the Champions League competition. That would definitely skyrocket the popularity of the Saudi League more. Probably even more than it did when Ronaldo joined the Saudi league.

Al Hillal has now run quite a distance and it is certain that if Al Nassr will not be able to catch them with only 5 games left, for now I think Al Nassr and other teams will only have the game to end the season without any more targets they are chasing, but for Ronaldo and the players who compete as top scorers,  Of course, the remaining 5 matches are still full of challenges for them to be able to continue to add to their goal collection and at least win the award as the best player or top scorer at the end of the season, and for Ronaldo the award can slightly treat his sadness over the failure of Al Nassr to win.

I see actually Al Nassr is not too dependent on Ronaldo so far  although Ronaldo is indeed the best player in their current squad, yes there is indeed 1 or 2 matches that Al Nassr lost when indeed Ronaldo did not play, but I see it is not directly related to Ronaldo because completely Al Nassr still has mainstay strikers when Ronaldo is absent namely Talisca and Mane,  I think the problem at Al Nassr is none other than the scheme and strategy of the game applied by Luis Castro is often difficult to understand because sometimes the strategy often changes when they face different opponents and this is why I think the only way for Al Nassr to rise next season is to sign a top European coach.

[Jody.Drummer]

That's true Ronaldo is well trusted and he is a famous player in Al Nassr. The thing about Ronaldo is about his age, he is getting old, and usually player can't have a good performance at this age but Ronaldo is performing much better than other players. So far during this one-and-a-half season, he scored 50 goals and there is no other player who can do that even at a young age.
Even the expensive superstars in Al Nassr like Talisca and Sadio Mane do not have this good performance.
That's why there is a high chance for Al Nassr to extend his contract for a longer time which means Ronaldo can even stay playing for Al Nassr until 40 years old or even for a longer time.

Yeah, the only player who can compete with Ronaldo is Aleksandar Mitrovic, this player has scored 22 goals in his first season or 4 goals behind Ronaldo who have scored 26 goals but unfortunately Ronaldo failed to give a trophy to al-Nassr. Ronaldo and Aleksandar Mitrovic will continue to compete for the top score trophy that's why we see Ronaldo always aggressive in several matches including in the last match he scored 3 goals. I can't imagine if Ronaldo fails to fight over the top score of course he will feel disappointed after his efforts in every game. Regarding Ronaldo's career I thought he would be comfortable in this league he has and gets whatever he wants except the Saudi Pro League title  well, this will be the main target.

Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the players who can play well even at his old age. He was able to play very well with Al Nassr, even though he couldn't give Al Nassr the title. However, Al Nassr's failure was not solely because of him, because they played as a team, not as individuals, because in my opinion, if a title is determined by an individual then he can win a title.

The goals he was able to score with Al Nassr during his time here were something extraordinary. Even at his previous club he was considered a failure because he didn't contribute, but in reality when he had the right strategy he gave a very good game and we can see that now with Al Nassr.

If he retires later, his presence will be greatly missed by football fans. because it cannot be denied that he has survived for more than a decade with an impressive game. And there aren't many players who can do something like that. Maybe he is one of the names along with Messi who can show consistent performances for a very long time.

[Volgastallion]

Cristiano Ronaldo and MEssi like Lebron James broke a wall in this era, and that wall was the age number. 20 years ago nobody can think a top player and more a foward can play at high level after even the 30 years old, and now they are in his 40 and they still way better than much youngs, and playing at super top level.

[rendravolt]

Al Hilal won the game as I was expecting to see and they had a good performance in this match which is not something I wanted to see from Al Hilal but to be honest Al Shabab also had a good chance and they could also made Al Hilal stop in this match.
The sad and shocking thing that happened to Al Hilal was about their superstar player, Aleksandar Mitrović. We know Aleksandar Mitrović is a key player for his team but in the game against Al Shabab, Aleksandar Mitrović got injured and he could continue the game 34 minutes after the start of this match.
We still don't know how hard is he injured but the absence of Aleksandar Mitrović can damage the team.

Al-Hilal had to pay a heavy price for the victory because they had to lose their flagship striker due to injury. I think even if they win, on the other hand, they are quite disadvantaged and Mitrovic will definitely be absent from several matches. But at least that won't interfere with Al-Hilal winning the title this season considering they are already ahead by so many points.

Al-Shabab is quite tough because they can match Al-Hilal's game and they can almost force Al-Hilal to draw this match. But Al-Hilal's winning mentality deserves to be appreciated and they don't want to lose full points in this very dramatic match. Maybe we can consider Al-Hilal as champions of the Saudi league this season and their next focus is to win the Asian Champions League title.

[Docnaster]

Aleksander Mitrovic prolific performance this season in the Saudi Pro League have been a surprise to me if I must be honest because I never expected him to be scoring as many goals as he's been scoring since the start of the season. He's the only player in the Saudi league that's seriously challenging Christian Ronaldo for the golden boot award despite the fact that the Portuguese superstar have been scoring goals for fun. Over the weekend, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat trick which was his 34th since he turned 30 years of age which goes a long way to tell how great of a player he is.
Currently, Cristiano Ronaldo is four goals ahead of Aleksander Mitrovic which means that Mitrovic can still catch up with him if him if he can more a little more prolific than he's been. Despite Cristiano Ronaldo's number of goals, his team is very unlikely to end the season with the league title because they have more impressive and consistent team like Al Hilal ahead of them in the league table

Maybe we can consider Al-Hilal as champions of the Saudi league this season and their next focus is to win the Asian Champions League title.

The victory over Al Shahab was Al Hilal 30th victory in a row, it would be a shame if they had to lose one of their key players in that match. Mitrovic is Al Hilal mainstay on the front line, most of the goals scored by Al Hilal this season have come from his feet, this is a big loss for them. Mitrovic is actually really needed in the Asian Championship League matches, while in the Saudi Pro League I think Al Hilal can overcome every challenge without his presence in the lineup.

Mitrovic is Ronaldo closest competitor when it comes to scoring goals, he has scored a total of 22 goals so far, if he can return sooner the number could increase again. On the other hand, I think the competition for the trophy is over, where Al Nassr as their closest competitor will no longer be able to catch up with Al Hilal, the difference in points in the standings is getting wider. Meanwhile, Al Hilal is also one of the favorite clubs to win the Asian Champions League, they managed to get rid of Al Ittihad in the quarter finals and have now advanced to the semi finals to face Al Ain. Hopefully Mitrovic will be available again soon, to help Al Hilal in the remaining matches ahead.

Every one must be surprised with Mitrovic performance this season. In the early of the season, no one guessed Mitrovic will perform very impressive in Saudi League. I remembered that most people assumed Ronaldo, Benzema, and Firmino who will compete as the top scorer in Saudi League this season. But in reality, Ronaldo and Mitrovic who are competing for the top scorer status in Saudi League. This is something quite unpredictable but it makes sense because Al Hilal has great midfielders and wingers who support Mitrovic very well. We can see that some other players of Al Hilal also played very impressive this season. I noted that some key players who supported Mitrovic are Milinković-Savić, Rúben Neves, Michael, and Malcom. If we learn carefully, these players are still in their prime ages. So, it is not really surprising if they are very competitive in Al Hilal squad. It is different with top European players in other Saudi clubs, most of them are no longer in their prime ages.

Mitrovic is one of the high profile striker from the Serbia as after joining Fulham and staying for five years he has done good performance and have 97 goals which are surely impressive from him but now his move to Al Hilal is surely one of the amazing move for any player as now in 22 games he already score 22 goals and still chasing for the Cristiano Ronaldo who is standing at the 26 goals with top spot in Saudi League.

Al Hilal which is currently having 28 matches winning streak is at his best due to having lethal attack but Mitrovic is their main striker and one of the top players which are really enjoying his stay in this league and having good future in coming years as well now we have 9 matches left in this season with this we can expect any change at the top for the most goalscorers list.

[X-ray]

Cristiano Ronaldo and MEssi like Lebron James broke a wall in this era, and that wall was the age number. 20 years ago nobody can think a top player and more a foward can play at high level after even the 30 years old, and now they are in his 40 and they still way better than much youngs, and playing at super top level.

It's saddened me to see those great players are getting even older. I can't deny that fact they are the best and that's it even when they are not at their best form but they can still give what fans expect from them.
Smart, intelligence, discipline, and many more. These things the special things that have not yet owned by the young players these days. We rarely seen a player to have a special football style like messi and ronaldo. We will not be seeing another messi and ronaldo in the future once they decide to retire.

It's only matter of time till we will be losing some great players. that's a very hard reality to accept. The hype era when ronaldo and messi were still at real madrid and barcelona.
The golden time of them have passed and they are heading toward the new era when they are old enough to play football.

Im sure ronaldo will shift to be a new coach in the future.

[slapper]

Ronaldo definitely doing great, had a few bad games and that was sad for him, but he made a good comeback, a hattrick is not that bad.

Everyone knows the Saudi league isn't the Champions League. However impressive the hat-trick is, let's not get carried away. Ronaldo, 40, is still scoring well as top scorer. Consider all the previous renowned names who withered after moving to easier levels. Ronaldo hasn't. That's about work ethic, passion to win, and being the guy who steps up when the team needs him, not merely competition level. His influence on Al-Nassr is evident. He energized the table. It may not be Real Madrid, but dominating late in his career? That's a different animal. It shows something you can't teach

[redsun114]

Today after few hours we are heading for the 26th round matches with mostly we will have top teams against relegation zones just one match which is going to have good chance for the Al Ittihad to jump at the third spot is going to play King Abdullah Sports City Jeddah with Al Ahli which was doing good now have problems and losing points frequently and Al Ittihad is now having good change of the fortune with they are improving their quality and which bring them to the fourth spot.

Now if today we will have win for the Al Ittihad will be at the third spot which could be enough for them after having the worst time and staying into middle of the league table now Karim Benzema is also doing good for the team after having some bad time in off the field issues.

The sad and shocking thing that happened to Al Hilal was about their superstar player, Aleksandar Mitrović. We know Aleksandar Mitrović is a key player for his team but in the game against Al Shabab, Aleksandar Mitrović got injured and he could continue the game 34 minutes after the start of this match.
We still don't know how hard is he injured but the absence of Aleksandar Mitrović can damage the team.

If I refer to Al Hilal's official Twitter or X, Aleksandar Mitrović suffered a posterior muscle injury, he was stated to be undergoing a virginity and rehabilitation program for six weeks. It would be a shame if Aleksandar Mitrović had to be absent for 6 weeks. even though, this competition only has 9 matches remaining. But I'm sure that Jorge Jesus has other strategies to get around this. It is very likely that if Aleksandar Mitrović has to undergo treatment due to his injury, Malcom will replace Mitrovic as a center forward.

Well, Malcom can't help but be relied on as a center forward. Moreover, before Mitrovic joined Al Hilal, Malcom was quite neat when he was reduced to a pure Al Hilal sticker. At least, in the Saudi Pro League match, Al Hilal will still be a tough team. It's just that, there will be changes to player rotation and perhaps the system they apply. However, of course Mitrovic's absence will have a big impact on Jorge Jesus' team. Moreover, in crucial matches against Al-Ahli, Al Taawon and Al Nassr. Al Hilal only needs to win 5 of the remaining 9 matches, so this competition trophy is theirs. Let's just follow how Jorge Jesus brings his team to take Al Hilal to various competitions, especially the Saudi Pro League.

Well, looking at Cristiano Ronaldo's current age, he has entered the age of 39 and is approaching 40, but he can still score a lot of goals even though only against ordinary teams, that is still an extraordinary achievement and an achievement that we very rarely see from a 39 year old player. In fact, many football legends in the past also moved to easier leagues when they entered old age. But most of these legends were unable to become top scorers even in mediocre leagues. But Cristiano Ronaldo managed to do his best at his current age. Well, we know that many European star players have come to the SPL and we can see that now only Cristiano Ronaldo is able to score lots of goals. And of all the European players who have come to the SPL, only Cristiano Ronaldo is over 39 years old. And yes, this is an extraordinary achievement for a player at his age.

[arallmuus]

Im sure ronaldo will shift to be a new coach in the future.

Wait what? I cant even picture him as a coach lol. I think he might even play until the age of 48 or something considering that his whole life was prepared to play football for almost forever.

If he ever retired, there will be tons of other jobs opportunities waiting for him. He could be pretty much a model for anything. Whatever he wears will most likely sells like crazy. Even better, picture him as an actor because thats a possibility for him as well. Imagine getting him on a screen, tons will be willing to watch him play a role on screen

[klidex]

Yeah, the only player who can compete with Ronaldo is Aleksandar Mitrovic, this player has scored 22 goals in his first season or 4 goals behind Ronaldo who have scored 26 goals but unfortunately Ronaldo failed to give a trophy to al-Nassr. Ronaldo and Aleksandar Mitrovic will continue to compete for the top score trophy that's why we see Ronaldo always aggressive in several matches including in the last match he scored 3 goals. I can't imagine if Ronaldo fails to fight over the top score of course he will feel disappointed after his efforts in every game. Regarding Ronaldo's career I thought he would be comfortable in this league he has and gets whatever he wants except the Saudi Pro League title  well, this will be the main target.

Aleksandar Mitrovic is the only player who is able to compete with Cristiano Ronaldo to become the top scorer in the Saudi league and the total goals obtained by Alexsandar Mitrovic are almost close to those obtained by Cristiano Ronaldo, therefore Ronaldo tries to continue scoring goals in every match he plays this season so that Alexsandar Mitrovic cannot have the opportunity to overtake Ronaldo in the top scorer list. It would be very painful if Ronaldo also failed to get the top scorer title because his club no longer got any titles, so at least one of the Al Nassr players got an individual title. At least Al Nassr's name was also dragged into it even though they didn't get a domestic title or the AFC Champions League.

And the hat trick that Ronaldo did in the Al Ta'ee match was really amazing because Ronaldo created the first two goals in close time and created the third goal as well as the final goal for Al Nassr's victory, thanks to the 3 goals created by Ronaldo Al Nassr won with a big score namely 5:1, really a very good win for Al Nassr because the club they were playing against was a weak club in the league so it was quite easy for Al Nassr to beat them and this hat trick adds to Ronaldo's goal collection in the Saudi league.

[Gallar]

Im sure ronaldo will shift to be a new coach in the future.

Ronaldo is a very great footballer today. So the possibility of him becoming a football coach will definitely be very big. Apart from that, if Ronaldo becomes a football coach in the future, I am sure the price to bring in Ronaldo will definitely be very expensive (to train). So in this case I totally agree with @x-ray. Because if, for example, Ronaldo continues to play football until he is over 45 years old, in my opinion it is unlikely. Because, even though Ronaldo is a footballer who is very disciplined in managing his lifestyle. So he can still be very fit today. But even so, Ronaldo is a human who certainly has certain limitations. So in my opinion, it is unlikely that Ronaldo will play football until he is 48 years old.

And talk about the wider career that Ronaldo could pursue after retiring as a football player. In this context I completely agree with @arallmuus' assumption. The reason is, currently Ronaldo is like a world superstar. Maybe most people in the world already know Ronaldo. So, if, for example, Ronaldo wants to become an artist or actor after retiring from football, I don't think it will be difficult for Ronaldo to get a positive response from this. The reason is that until now Ronaldo often stars in advertisements for various products.

So in essence, both of your opinions are not wrong. Because the two assumptions you both put forward are very reasonable. However, I personally would add a little, namely don't forget that Ronaldo currently owns a company. So it is also possible that after Ronaldo retires from the world of football, he will focus on the business world.

[armanda90]

Well, looking at Cristiano Ronaldo's current age, he has entered the age of 39 and is approaching 40, but he can still score a lot of goals even though only against ordinary teams, that is still an extraordinary achievement and an achievement that we very rarely see from a 39 year old player.

And of all the European players who have come to the SPL, only Cristiano Ronaldo is over 39 years old. And yes, this is an extraordinary achievement for a player at his age.

Cristiano Ronaldo become an athlete with good healthy lifestyle, this was once told by his former colleague at Manchester United Patrice Evra, where at home Ronaldo never consumed soda, alcohol or drinks that were not good for his health. I think a healthy lifestyle means that Cristiano Ronaldo remains in pretty good form even though he is 39 years old and continues to consistently score goals every game until he becomes the temporary top scorer this season.
Usually many top European players when reaching their age over 39 years old most of them retired from football and not balance yet with their physical, I am so excited with Cristiano Ronaldo become most professional athlete and never drink or eat some thing outside as for football players. Not only with good lifestyle but also Ronaldo become good figure for young players how most early in training center and go home most lately to get additional training.

[Strongkored]

Today after few hours we are heading for the 26th round matches with mostly we will have top teams against relegation zones just one match which is going to have good chance for the Al Ittihad to jump at the third spot is going to play King Abdullah Sports City Jeddah with Al Ahli which was doing good now have problems and losing points frequently and Al Ittihad is now having good change of the fortune with they are improving their quality and which bring them to the fourth spot.

Now if today we will have win for the Al Ittihad will be at the third spot which could be enough for them after having the worst time and staying into middle of the league table now Karim Benzema is also doing good for the team after having some bad time in off the field issues.

Ittihad FC lost by a narrow score to Al-Ahli, and this is the first defeat after three consecutive wins, for Ittihad FC no longer has a target for this season in the Saudi pro league, and Ittihad's only chance this season is in the Saudi Super cup.
Karim Benzema hasn't scored a goal for a long time and this is certainly not what Benzema and Ittihad FC want because this team expects him to be a productive striker and he has only scored nine goals with seven assists this season.

Next week they will face Al-Wahda in the semifinals Saudi Super Cup and their chances are very big to get to the final because Al-Wahda often had difficulty beating Ittihad. and their opponents in the final are quite tough, namely Al-Hilal or Al-Nassr.

It may not be Real Madrid, but dominating late in his career? That's a different animal. It shows something you can't teach

Yes, the SPL is different from the European League where the competition is quite fierce, but is it wrong if we still admire the figure of Ronaldo who once made the European League proud thanks to his good performance as a star player in the European League, just like Messi and Myanmar. Ronaldo is the best player of his time as well as in the SPL because this league is not too difficult for Ronaldo to score a lot of goals. I think it doesn't matter if we admire him. There are not many European players who still play well in the SPL. Even though in the European League they play well. We shouldn't underestimate the SPL lower league just because Ronaldo is the top scorer in the SPL even though Ronaldo still has the same rival as Mitrovic in the SPL top scorer list.
