Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[bitgolden]

I mean Neymar missed a total of 60+ games in the last 3 seasons, that should tell you what kind of player he is about injury. However, he seems like he is ready and not injured anymore so he will be ready to play during the season.

I cannot say if he will play many games or not, maybe he will return back and he is going to have some trouble again, or maybe he will not return and he is going to have trouble again and get injured on few games he plays, which isn't really unlike him. They knew this when they signed him, they paid way too much money for him and not considering injury wasn't a possibility for them, they knew that and I am sure that they are aware of the fact that he may never even come back again, he basically lost football in his mind already.

What I am guessing is that he is only there for image rights and marketing and all that, the point of spending this much money on football by Saudi Arabia is that they are trying to make a new face, they are doing a lot of improvements in progressive way politically, getting closer to Europe, I am sure they will get even closer, but also we need to see that they are doing marketing, Neymar could be a great deal about that one without an issue.

[entertheabyss]

A professional team will never depend on just one player because football is not a one man game. But by strengthening every position of a team, if someone like Neymar is placed in the attacking position, then it goes without saying that the performance of that team increases much more than before. Knowing that Neymar could get injured, Al Hilal signed Neymar to their club, but as always, Neymar was sidelined for the entire season due to injuries. Saudi club Al Hilal paid exorbitant salary to get Neymar for the whole season. If this club wanted, they could have released Neymar this season but they didn't do that, they have faith in Neymar again and they are waiting for Neymar to come

The vulnerability of Neymar Jr to injuries is stationed high and there'd everything to worry about him. He was once in his prime and have played for elite clubs, Santos, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain. Moving to SPL was a good choice for him although him been sidelined is just coincidence on injuries sustained on the pitch. Neymar Jr is potential talent, more reason why Al Hilal signed him was because of his extreme influence on social media and also his spectacular stats.

With or without Neymar, Al Hilal are not affected, their possible strength relies on the coach and the availability of players. The team stand out to be competitive and strong enough to withstand pressuring momentum from oppositions. Al Hilal will dive into actions in the new season, no relenting efforts but collective football style is obtained.

Without Neymar Al Hilal have shown their best strength last season and if he returns fit and joins the team at the start of this season of course that is quite good news. Fans are of course looking forward to Neymar's action on the field, but it's a shame that he often gets injured because when he recovered, it wasn't long before he was injured again. It may be true that Neymar's recruitment did not end as desired because he had frequent injuries which hampered him last season.

But Al-Hilal uses Neymar's big name very well for marketing purposes and this can still help the club's income even though Neymar has never played a match with Al-Hilal. I think there are positive and negative values ​​that can be taken from the Neymar incident and of course even though Al-Hilal is not strengthened by Neymar they are still as strong.

It's all because of the intelligence of coach Jorge Jesus who is known to be very cool in handling the Al-Hilal squad and wherever they step they always win. We can also see in the Saudi pro league Al-Hilal remains an undefeated team last season and it is possible that next season they will still maintain that record. Well, Neymar will only be a luxurious decoration owned by Al-Hilal and regardless of whether he plays or not because he is still injured, it will not change anything if Al-Hilal still dominates the league.

Not only Al Hilal who take advantage of the fame of star players but Al Nassr, Al Ittihad and also Al Ahli also do the same thing so that the names of these clubs are in football news and can increase their popularity, even though Neymar is injured it does not make Al Hilal lose at all because they are still performing strongly in the SPL and if they do not use Neymar, consider that they bought this player only as a promotion for Al Hilal.

Jorge Jesus is a coach who has a lot of experience and many achievements so it is natural that Al Hilal achieves impressive results when trained by this coach, I think next season Al Hilal will still be a strong competitor for other clubs because most likely Neymar will also play and the combination of Aleksander Mitrovic and Neymar will make Al Hilal's attack line even sharper.

Btw yesterday Al Hilal played against one of the newly promoted clubs in Serie A but Al Hilal was able to beat them, this is good news for SPL clubs that they are not only strong against clubs in their own league, I think SPL will soon become a competitive league.

If Al Hillal previous goal was to recruit Neymar to strengthen their squad, Al Hillal should have realized that Neymar had a long history of injuries throughout his career, so I personally see the recruitment of Neymar as nothing more than a commercial goal to attract fans and also increase Al Hillal jersey sale all this time, if you reflect on the incident that Dortmund almost canceled the recruitment of Guirassy some time ago just because of the history of injuries he had experienced of course when Neymar did the medical test on Al Hillal they also would have realized that there was a history of injuries that were a risk for Al Hillal if they future to sign Neymar, but in fact Al Hillal still continues to sign Neymar with all the possible risks involved and in fact last season Neymar didn't have a big contribution to the team,  I think they tend to see Neymar popularity as a good business to increase the popularity and also the team's income in terms of sales of jerseys, knick-knacks and merchandise related to Neymar so far for club income.

Well, that's what I mean and we know that Al-Hilal is not a team that relies on star players for performance issues. The proof is that they can still beat European teams that are being promoted to the main division and here we can see that in fact the comparison of Al-Hilal's quality with European teams is not much different.

So, Neymar is like a club icon and with expensive purchases and big salaries, of course it won't bother him even if he doesn't play. But sometimes Neymar also has to feel embarrassed towards the team that paid him and I hope he can focus on recovering soon considering that he has spent one season for free and has never even been on the bench. His contract with Al-Hilal has one season left and I think if his name is still profitable for Al-Hilal then he will be extended again.

Anyway, congratulations on your winning bet.

[rahmad2nd]

I am not in a position to defend Neymar, it's just that the incident in that match injured Neymar. I am pretty sure that no player wants an injury problem to hinder them, let alone require an indefinite rest. In addition to potentially affecting their performance after recovering, for some players their positions will be replaced by other players. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for players who experience long-term injuries to have difficulty improving their performance after recovering and joining their team. In the end, their careers gradually fade. In Neymar's case, he suffered a lot of injuries. He often got hard tackles from opposing defenders to stop him, that's the risk of players who dribble too often.

As for the Al Hilal vs Como match, this match is a friendly match.
The result of this match does not determine anything. For me, this match is a series of pre-season matches that both teams do before the campaign starts. Regardless of the plans of each coach, whether it's for team fitness, and experimenting with what they plan. Previously, Al Hilal was defeated by a team from the South African League, this result also had no effect on them. However, it can be a study for Jorge Jesus to correct the shortcomings of his squad. Back to the discussion of Neymar, if he is scheduled to fully recover. We will see his action with Al Hilal again. That is, if the scenario is that Al Hilal does not release him.

Both teams played very well in this match even though it was only a friendly match, If we have seen that every team that plays in a friendly match only uses a reserve squad and young players, but not in the Al Hillal and Como match, both teams seem to take the match very seriously to test the mentality and performance of their main players so that their fielded almost all the main players in the match, the two coaches saw that the match seemed to be a good match to see how big the strengths and weaknesses of their teams  before the league started, the only player who was Still absent from Al Hillal's squad is Neymar who still has to recover from his ligament injury, the injury suffered by Neymar at the start of last season was a big loss for Al Hillal who spent a lot to recruit him but fortunately they still have Mitrovic who appears quite consistently in the front line, Neymar injury may be a big loss for the team performance but not for their current finances, because when he first joined Al Hillal in 2023, sales of Neymar jerseys increased drastically and in just 7 hours more than 10,000 jerseys were sold,So it is very likely that the sales of these jerseys can cover their expenses when buying Neymar from PSG, because Al Hillal is a team that has a very large fan base in the Arab Super League.

SPL is listed to be among the top leagues in the top leagues outside the European leagues. The main SPL clubs have fought excessively for the signing of most talents and these players are from Europe. Al Hilal have nothing to worry about because winning is secured for them following the impressive form of the club. Playing friendly games, it becomes easy for them and winning major titles becomes very important and necessary.

Al Nassr already has an European coach. Luís Castro is a Portuguese and has managed big clubs in Europe, such as Shakhtar Donetsk and FC Porto, and also the Qatarian side Al-Duhail Sports Club. We shouldn't start criticizing him now since these games are just preparatory to the main league events.

I didn't say Al Nassr has no European coach. I said Al Nassr didn't hire a top European coach. What big clubs Luís Castro ever managed? Donetsk and FC Porto are not very big teams in Europe. These teams even aren't a part of big leagues in Europe. I mean Al Nassr needs to try to hire a coach who have a success experience to manage big teams in EPL, La Liga, or Serie A. We have a reason to criticize him, he looks to have no significant improvement for Al Nassr. Even if Al Nassr has some big players, he even never won a single match playing against Al Hilal last season. How we can believe him to win a trophy for Al Nassr?  

Luís Castro's career history as a manager.

Al Nassr are not doing badly, they are playing well they were just probably not as good as Al Hilal because they still had defense issues which i believe if they are able to strengthen their defense they should be able to challenge Al Hilal. The coach has done his best and I don’t think it’s his fault, he should be given another chance to improve his team before signing a new coach.

They may not be a very bad team, but they always fail to reach the target (winning SPL trophy). It is not only to strengthen their defense, Al Nassr also needs a better coach. Honestly, I don't see a very high hope under the current coach management. Even if Al Nassr could sign some new stronger players, they will fail again if they have no good strategy in playing.

[Hirose UK]

Yes, apart from Neymar, Saudi Al-Helal team has always performed well, currently every player in Al-Helal team is a great player. Al Helal team has remained an undefeated team since 2020 for until now the whole four seasons, George Jesus of Al Helal is really a great responsible course, because of his talent all the players of Al-Halal are so great now and this team is an undefeated team. Anyway, now Neymar is returning to the team, after 9 months of treatment, Neymar will returning his full fitness and play for the Al-Helal team. We may see this team as an undefeated team in the next season as well. And next season will be a great season.

Yes you are right Al Hilal are the current champions of the Saudi Pro League. Maybe they will have a good time next season even go undefeated and win the title again. After leaving the PSG club, Neymar Jr. joined the Saudi League club Al Hilal. However, he did not make any significant performances after joining the club. Soon after joining the club, he suffered an injury and kept himself out of football for a few months. Now that he is fully healthy and his fitness is correct let's see how well he can perform in the next matches for Al Hilal. Already his team Al Hilal is one of the best teams in the Saudi Professional League and they have played well against their opponents in every match.

Yes, Al Hilal is the defending champion with very impressive performance last season which even showed that they were able to easily beat quite strong team like Al Nassr, but next season there is no guarantee for Al Hilal to win the title again.
I still believe that Al Hilal will dominate again and play well, but I will never believe in the guarantee of retaining the title, there are several other team who are also quite strong and could win the title.

Regarding Neymar, he was actually not very useful for Al Hilal last season because he was absent from most of Al Hilal matches, injuries were always problem for Neymar and this was condition that was detrimental to the team and himself.
He won the title with Al Hilal without having to make big contribution to the team, but we'll see if Neymar next season can recover and play impressively with Al Hilal.

Anyway, congratulations on your winning bet.

You are right we should not underestimate the club from Saudi especially the top club like Al Hilal because they are undoubtedly have great players in it even though some of them are foreign players but they still continue to try to match the level like the European League and in this friendly match it is proof that they are strong enough to beat European clubs even though Como is not a top club.
This weekend Al Hilal will compete again with one of the European clubs from the Serie A League Udinese, Udinese is a club that was almost relegated last season but he managed to save himself and finished in 15th place his performance was not too tough I think Al Hilal still has a chance to win again on this occasion.

[doomloop]

Neymar Jr is dormant player, still injured and have been sideline for months, not good for the club because they signed him from Paris Saint-Germain because he was the positioned player that would relieve pressure. Al Hilal don't depend on Neymar Jr for winning games and lifting trophies. They've in place, the expected squad to clean out the competitive race.

A professional team will never depend on just one player because football is not a one man game. But by strengthening every position of a team, if someone like Neymar is placed in the attacking position, then it goes without saying that the performance of that team increases much more than before.

Saudi club Al Hilal paid exorbitant salary to get Neymar for the whole season. If this club wanted, they could have released Neymar this season but they didn't do that, they have faith in Neymar again and they are waiting for Neymar to come

We all know about the history of the Neymar Jr as he is having too many injuries in last few years which usually create problems for him and his team as well, but things were well organized at the Al Hilal because they were well-prepared about this all and their strategy works for them despite having injury of Neymar and problems with Karim Benzema their attack were at the top just because of this Al Hilal were able to secure three trophies in last season.

We can say Metrovic were last man standing for them his heroic performance bring Al Hilal in record books now they are going to defend their title even now things will be not as we have in last season because Al Nassr and Al Ittihad doing good job for creating problems, but we will have Al Hilal at his best because they are using their money on right players and having good results.

[tusandii]

As usual SPL clubs lose more in these friendly matches as we saw before some popular clubs in SPL also have previous losses so I will not bet on Al-Ettifaq.
I am not saying SPL clubs are bad but this issue is about betting to get a win because pre-season matches are not serious matches and we can take a chance to get profit.
From my analysis the possibility of the match can end 2-1 and 1 score for Al-Ettifaq.

Al-Hilal's strategy ain't just about signing Neyma. Sure, Neymar's been sidelined by injuries, but the dude's a global icon. A thousand shirts sold in just a few hours? That's not just love from fans. Cushions the blow of his absence, wouldn't you say?

It's not just Neymar that Al-Hilal is counting on. They're strong rivals who give it their all even in friendly games. Do you remember that game against Como? Say it out loud: "We're strong with or without Neymar." It's smart and rough

When Neymar gets better? Holy hell, that's not just a player, that's a game-changer. Al-Hilal has a plan, though, even without him. They have more than one plan. That shows a team wants to win

Last season, even the SPL looked quite easy for AL-hilal. Because until the end of the season, Al-Hilal was completely undefeated throughout the season in the SPL. So if they can maintain the same performance as they showed last season then there is really no reason to worry for this team even in the next season. In the pre-season match, AL-hilal played more players who rarely get playing time. but the results are still good.

I'm more worried about Al-nassr. Because I saw that Al-Nassr seemed to have lost its sharpness in the attack line in the friendly match. Even though it wasn't a serious match. But I see a weakness in Al-nassr when there is no Cristiano Ronaldo. The enthusiasm of the players when playing with Cristiano Ronaldo is much higher. Now I realize that Cristiano Ronaldo is very important in that team. The instructions that Cristiano Ronaldo sometimes gives to other players are always quite helpful. But hopefully when the season starts Al-nassr can return to their best performance.

Al Hilal is currently the best team in the SPL. The competition in the SPL is like in Europe. There are star players in every team and watching that league is fun for people now. I think Al Hilal will be one of the biggest candidates for the championship this year, but Al Nassr will also be better than last year in this race. It is really fun to watch this competition of Al Nassr.

There is no doubt that AL-hilal is the best team in the Saudi Pro League. Not just last season but long before that. Because Al-hilal is also the club that has lifted the most trophies in the Saudi Pro League for a long time. Meanwhile, Al-Nassr has only won a few championship titles. The competition between Al-hilal and Al-nassr will indeed be very interesting and will always be interesting. But I see a strong candidate to be able to compete more strongly with Al-hilal next season besides Al-nassr is Al-ittihad. Even though last season Al-ittihad experienced quite a clear setback, I see them making better preparations in the transfer market which is still ongoing at this time. And I think AL-ittihad wants to repeat their glory again. Meanwhile for Al-Nassr, I don't see them moving much in the transfer market except for recruiting goalkeepers and defenders which they really need. Because last season Al-Nassr's back line really looked bad.

Saudi Pro League is having good history but in last few years now they are taking this league on another level with available sources are unlimited, and they are giving their best to have top quality players and coaches because having things like these surely bring good challenging atmosphere, and they will be able to have good improvement in quality. Even going at the top level in leagues has never been easy, but they are doing their best for having unique things and world talk about them all things are working good, and they are jumping good numbers for having competitive clubs for facing world best clubs.

Al Hilal record-breaking performance bring good intention about this league around the soccer world, and now they are having win against new promoted Serie A club Como looks like things are going good for their future and having good consistency for defending title.

[Slow death]

Al Nassr already has an European coach. Luís Castro is a Portuguese and has managed big clubs in Europe, such as Shakhtar Donetsk and FC Porto, and also the Qatarian side Al-Duhail Sports Club. We shouldn't start criticizing him now since these games are just preparatory to the main league events.

I didn't say Al Nassr has no European coach. I said Al Nassr didn't hire a top European coach. What big clubs Luís Castro ever managed? Donetsk and FC Porto are not very big teams in Europe. These teams even aren't a part of big leagues in Europe...

The Saudi league is not a very big league and Al Nassr is not such a big team that it needs a super coach. To give you an idea of ​​what I'm talking about, before Luís Castro became the coach of Al Nassr, he was the coach of Botafogo, which is a team in the first division of the Brazilian league. The Brazilian league is much better in terms of quality when compared to the Saudi professional league. While Luís Castro was the coach of Botafogo, I saw Botafogo playing very well, to the point that they were at the top of the league and looked like a team that could compete for the title.

But as soon as Luís Castro left Botafogo, Botafogo's performance dropped a lot. This clearly showed that Botafogo was performing so well because of Luís Castro. As the coach of Al-Duhail SC, he didn't win the Qatari league, but as the coach of Shakhtar Donetsk, he won the Ukrainian league.



FC Porto is a team that can play and surprise the big teams in the European Champions League. Porto is not underestimated in the European Champions League. Luís Castro was not the head coach of FC Porto. He did not win the Portuguese League, which is not an easy league to win unless you are a good coach and are working at Porto, Benfica or Sporting. But overall, I think that Luís Castro is not to blame for all the bad things that have happened to Al Nassr. Even if Al Nassr hired the coach of Real Madrid or Zinade or even the coach of AL Hilal, they still would not win anything, because they are a team centered on Ronaldo, who is no longer in the best condition but does not sit on the bench, so it will be difficult for any good coach.

Al Hillal has become the team that has won the most SPL at the moment with 18 trophies, so it shows that they are the rulers of the SPL all this time, last season was the most impressive season for Al Hillal although they couldn't  to played their main star player(Neymar) last season, however they are able to compete with Al Nassr and Al Ahli which are strengthened by many star players, even last season Al Hillal were able to win the SPL by going undefeated in one season and of course that is difficult for other teams in the SPL to do.

Next season we will see a more exciting competition than last season, because so far the rivals have started to strengthen their current teams by bringing in several new players from Europe, as well as Al Hillal who has recruited and tried to bring in several new players to be able to defend the their tittle champions next season, Al Ahli and Al Nassr will be strong challengers for Al Hillal but it seems that for next season we also cannot underestimate the team that has just been promoted (Al Qadasiya) which is also starting to recruit many European star players at this time.
