Not only about performance because anyway, Ronaldo can also still play well even though here in Saudi has a different culture and climate. Of course, the adjustment is also not easy but in fact, Ronaldo managed to adjust himself to keep playing well in the Saudi Pro League. At least with some other star players who find it difficult to adjust themselves well here in Saudi, then the case is also proof that it is still not easy to adjust in the Saudi Pro League. So yes, therefore it can be assumed that Ronaldo remains the best player despite no longer competing in Europe's elite competition.

what can we expect, benzema doesn't seem to have teammates who can support him on the field, it's different when he was at Real Madrid, there are so many great midfielders who can support him. I also really hope that Benzema returns to the European League, big teams like Man Utd and Chelsea are keen to monitor Benzema's future developments at Al Ittihad, I don't really follow Benzema's developments there but rumors about him having problems with Al Ittihad management have been heard very loudly, he is a good striker but I don't know why, it seems that since being in the SPL, his ethics are not so good.

Ronaldo is well known as an ambitious player, he never lose the spirit to be the number 1 player in any league he plays. Sure, he isn't a selfish player, he is a very friendly player and he cares with his teammates. He could play solidly with Talisca, Mane, and all the players of Al Nassr. He didn't think about himself to make the individual records. He can show it in many matches that he lets other players to score goals. He wants to give assists to other players to score goals.

Ronaldo may be one of the players in the world who very rarely to get injury problem. Ronaldo has a strong fitness, he is smart to anticipate the violation in the field. It is true that he always does a lot exercises everyday, he keeps the good physical with hard training. This becomes perfect because he surely has a very healthy life. He just eat healthy food and drinks, he also don't have a bad lifestyle that lead a negative impact to the body.

Yes, Benzema could have been more disciplined, but this whole situation is just part of another more general situation where, as I understand, there are other factors such as a conflict with the fans. Moreover, this is not a mutual conflict, but rather harassment of Benzema. Despite the fact that he plays quite well - 9 goals and 5 assists in 15 games is not the worst indicator in the league, the fans insult him (because of this he closed his Instagram account) and pester him in every possible way. By the way, the fact that he reacts to it this way shows that he cares. If he were only interested in money, he would continue to formally fulfill all the requirements (even if he played poorly), but as we see, such a situation is unacceptable for him.

Al Nasr and Al Hilal are currently the fiercest teams in the Saudi Arabian League (SPL) among the 16 other teams. The reason is that in the last 19 matches both teams have managed to achieve a very good winning record. This can indeed be achieved with solidarity between the players of both teams and also the coaches of each team.
Apart from that, Mitrovic and Ronaldo have always been the spearheads of the two teams. All of this is proven, because these two players were able to enter the SPL TOP SCORES list this season. So this player's skill is really very sharp and fierce when on the field. So, when talking about the rivalry between Al Nasr and Al Hilal this season, I myself am actually a bit confused about predicting which team will win the SPL this season. However, if you look at the record of the last 19 matches this season, Al Hilal is indeed superior to Al Nasr. Because Al Hilal has never experienced defeat once. Meanwhile, Al Nasr has experienced 3 defeats, one of which was defeated by Al Hilal. So if you look at these records, Al Hilal is indeed a strong candidate to win the SPL this season. However, it does not rule out the possibility that Al Nasr will be able to recover and turn things around and overtake Al Hilal in the remaining matches. Because nothing is impossible, this could happen. However, it could also be that in the remaining matches, Al Hilal becomes even better and continues to sweep the matches with a winning record. So the point is that it still cannot be predicted.

For Ronaldo this league and level fits likea glove for him, because in Europe at 100% level he was starting to drop a little because of his age, but here in this league with a bit less of level he is again at 100% level and he can seems like he never go down in his performance, ended up being a good move for him.

Yes, both of them adapted extraordinarily to the new club. maybe Ronaldo's first season wasn't so smooth. but this season, Ronaldo has performed extraordinary. not only in scoring goals but also with the assists he provides. he is not unselfish in the team and he can score goals or provide assists to his teammates.
Mitrović is still younger than Ronaldo. He is quite faster in the game than Ronaldo, who currently needs team support to score more goals. We have to admit that Ronaldo's speed performance has decreased. but not with his experience playing on the field. both players played extraordinarily. even when they are not young anymore.

Talking about Ronaldo never ends and as one of the GOATs, his greatness and perseverance can always be a good example for other young players. In places he has experienced in England, Spain, Italy and now Saudi Arabia, he is still a figure who is very ambitious about scoring goals and wants to get his name on the top scorer's board every season. The way of adapting to a new place may have to be imitated by other players because whether it is easy or not depends on how the player can conquer it.

Here Ronaldo was able to prove that he could and at a very old age for a football player he could continue to get what he wanted as long as there was intention and hard work. The competition to get the Saudi League golden boot is certainly not an easy matter for him because there will always be competition and here Mitrovic from Al-Hilal is his closest competitor and maybe we will see just these two players from the list of European players who are available to win the golden boot this season.

But I doubt that anyone actually had any doubts Ronaldo would lead the top scorer list. I was pretty sure that he would take the lead and keep it, but I have problems coming up with conclusions based on those numbers. Does it mean that he is still in outstanding shape because he is leading the top scorer list in the Saudi Professional League?

It's too bad he wasn't able to become part of the Manchester United squad for a longer time because they he could have had a fight with Haaland. This is where I see the difference. Would he be leading the Premier League top scorer list at his age? That would have been impressive and I think it would have silenced all the critics.

I remember there was some talk whether Ronaldo could go to Manchester City. That would have been exciting to see how he would have done there. But now this is just speculation and we can only work with the numbers he has attached to his name in the SPL.

We know how Ronaldo plays in every league, he is always full of ambition so don't be surprised if Ronaldo can adapt quickly, one clear example is that he can always take a place in the top scorer list and this is the 4th time Ronaldo has won the golden boot from a different league, yeah Ronaldo hasn't got it yet in the Saudi Pro League but I'm sure he will and Ronaldo is also in the top 1 based on assists, currently Ronaldo is 3 goals ahead of Aleksandar Mitrović. By the way, Aleksandar Mitrović is also one of the players who adapted the fastest in the Saudi Pro League and this is his first season but he managed to attract attention.

No doubt with Cristiano Ronaldo easily to adapt well with new team in his career, he was good achievement since joined with Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus and Al Nassr without faced difficult with adaption. I don't know why have many top european players such as Karim Benzema, Jordan Henderson and Roberto Firmino can't adapt well with Saudi Pro League teams. First season, Cristiano Ronaldo have scored many goals with Al Nassr and his performance keep consistency until second season top scorer achievement awhile.
Left winning domestic league only will make Cristiano Ronaldo become success achievement and winning almost 4 domestic league tittle with difference teams.

I've followed Benzema's career for a while, and his move to Al Ittihad was intriguing. I assumed he wanted a fresh challenge, but now it seems it was more about money. One used to European football must adjust to Saudi Arabia's culture and lifestyle. I think his recent behaviour shows sorrow and a desire to return to Europe.

A player of his calibre faltering is discouraging. According to my sources, numerous European SPL players experience this alienation. Both the game and feeling at home are important, something Benzema appears to lack. Ronaldo may have thrived in his new setting, but Benzema's situation shows how important a player's professional and personal fit is.

The Saudi Pro League has been on quite a long holiday and now I feel like I'm missing the league that I always watch every week. It's quite strange indeed when a league that previously I didn't even know existed, is now one of the leagues that I watch and even bet on. This is one form of their success in building their popularity, it cannot be denied that this is the impact of their movements in the transfer market which brought in many star plyers and players who are very well known in the big leagues in Europe.
I want to know if I'm the only one who feels this way or if most people feel the same way. From initially not knowing anything about the Saudi Pro League, it has now become one of the leagues that is on my list of must-watch matches.
Now I'm looking forward to what they do once they gain this popularity, whether they will do something new that will elevate their name even more, or this will just pass by. I do hope they continue it.

Well, one of the factors that has made Jorge Jesus successful so far in managing Al Hilal in his first season, is that he was able to keep his team going consistently and without losing in his 19 matches in the Saudi Pro League. plus, in several other competitions. although when compared in terms of team depth, Al Nassr has far the most competitive squad than other teams. however, what differentiates Al Hilal from other teams in this competition is that they carry out very good, solid, disciplined teamwork, plus they are filled with players who are appropriate in their respective positions. that's why, so far Al Hilal has been able to move smoothly compared to other teams. what's cool is that Al Hilal has been able to win 20 of its matches in various competitions so far. now, there are rumors that Al Hilal is targeting players who can be relied on in the defense line. with the scenario, the Al Hilal coach wants his defense line to be stronger. thus, it is hoped that the competing teams, especially Al Nassr, will find it difficult to reduce the point difference or even get close to Al Hilal's points.

Well, because this competition still has enough time left, each team competing in this league can focus on improving their respective teams. as for Al Nassr, as I said in many previous posts. Luis Castro's job is only to focus his team's squad to remain consistent and win the matches they will play, especially when they have to defeat Al Hilal in the second meeting. while hoping, Al Hilal will slip up in several of their matches. thus, the potential to overtake the standings or win trophies this season is still wide open. moreover, there is still half the season that each team has to play. which means, we cannot yet confirm which team will win the trophy this season even though so far Al Hilal is one of the teams closest to the league title. Let's just wait, at least until the end of this season.

Al Hilal have managed to stay unbeaten this season and the way they’ve maintained this is alot to show that they’re the best teAm of the league this season. Meanwhile Al Nassr had 3 defeats but picked up thier form massively after those defeats and it was because of the absence of star man, Ronaldo. It’ll be a tough run for Al Nassr to win this league especially with form that Al Hilal are at currently. Al Hilal who looks like a team not ready to drop off points anytime soon would be giving Al Nassr some tough works to do.

 The matches between Al Hilal and Inter Miami and also Al Nassr will be one that football fans would love to see because of the European stars in these fixtures. Especially to see how Al Hilal will perform against Al Nassr. We all know how tough the match would be, based on their previous meetings and those are the two most inform club in the SPL.

Al-Hilal, who haven't lost even once this season in the Saudi Pro League, is truly extraordinary. And this is also a sign that Al-Hilal is indeed the best this season. Even Al-Nassr lost when facing them. Al-hilal managed to pass the 19 matches in the Saudi Pro League without defeat. Meanwhile, Al-Nassr has had 3 defeats and the defeats were from the first 2 matches of the season when Cristiano Ronaldo was absent in the first 2 matches.

I also hope Al-Nassr can win the title this season. But I realize that it really won't be easy with the remaining games in the season. Unless Al-hilal loses their consistency in the middle of this season.

I also can't wait to see the matches between Al-hilal vs Inter Miami and Al-Nassr vs Inter Miami. Yes, these two matches will definitely attract the attention of all football fans. Especially for fans of Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi. And everyone is also curious whether Al-hilal, who is unbeaten in the SPL, will be defeated by Inter Miami.

In fact, Al Hilal is much stronger than Al Nassr this season because Al Hilal is able to appear impressive in every match. I think Al Hilal will be able to win a trophy this season because they are 7 points ahead of Al Nassr. Apart from that, this season only has 11 more matches remaining which Al Hilal will probably be able to make the best use of to continue to get 3 points to maintain their hopes of being able to lock up the title early.

Al Hilal or Al Nassr have a goal machine in their team where Al Hilal has Mitrovic and Al Nassr has Ronaldo. Also both of them have had quite a big influence on their progress this season. But I have high hopes for Al Nassr this season to become champions because Ronaldo has performed quite well this season and it would be a shame if they failed to become champions this season.

They were just realizing that if SPL was not suitable place for all of them to play. I have seen that henderson has made a negotiation with ajax and firmino will be also very close in leaving from the club soon. There may be another news that will report the latest development of him with the new club.
Im just checking the latest news and this is what i got from there. I can't even even believe this to happen. Benzema to EPL? Is this for real?

https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/25049203/transfer-news-live-chelsea-newcastle-liverpool-guimaraes-updates/

Considering the current situation, it is fair to say that Chelsea is struggling to find a solution for their striker position. Recent rumors indicate that they are looking at Benzema or Firmino as potential candidates for this role. I can't even believe it if there was a club that was willing to get one from them all.
My preference is for Chelsea to acquire Firmino because he has demonstrated the ability to easily adapt to the EPL. However, the only factor that makes me doubtful is if Firmino has ever stated that he would never join Liverpool's rival.

Im doubting his statement if he will be opening talk to the chelsea regarding his transfer. It seems like pochettino is not willing to get non experienced striker this time. Firmino's comeback to the EPL may be real soon.

Benzema was injury prone and it's quite risky for chelsea to get him.

At the age of 36, Benzema actually has to be able to behave well and be able to have a more professional attitude because Al-Ittihad also brought him in for very large fee.
The suspension he received should have made Benzema realize that what he did was mistake and of course he should be able to provide better explanation and apology to the coach.
If you look at Benzema playing performance in the SPL, it actually not that bad because he managed to provide 9 goals and also 5 assists in 15 matches, this proves that Benzema can still be relied on.

Regarding the rumors circulating about Benzema loan with European team, not only PSG but also Manchester United stated that they were interested in the loan option for Benzema.
But looking at both team it seems like Benzema would be better off with PSG than Manchester United because Manchester United also haven't performed that well in the last few match.

Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal are still the strongest teams currently in the Saudi League and of course the competition between Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr is still ongoing, yes of course the names Cristiano Ronaldo and Aleksandar Mitrovic are always thereand adorn our ears because these 2 players are players who The current greats in the Saudi League are Cristiano Ronaldo from Alnassr and Aleksandar Mitrovic from Al-Hilal. Yes, now the Saudi League match has not yet started and indeed when the match starts Al-Nassr must be able to consistently win and if they don't consistently win it will make the point difference far behind Al-Hilal. and in the next match, Al-Nassr will definitely face Al-Hilal and this match is very interesting because it brings together the strongest team currently in the Saudi League, of course Al-Hilal also wants to complete their victory, even though in the first match against Al-Nassr, Al-Hilal won at that time with score 3-0. and I think this time Al-nassr definitely doesn't want to lose a second time and definitely wants to win and wants to make the point difference smaller with Al-hilal. but indeed, if in the second meeting Al-nassr loses then it looks like Al-hilal will have the potential to win and become champions this season.

Yes, of course we won't know who will win the trophy this season, but what is clear is that Al-Nassr still has hope of winning the trophy this season because there are still a lot of matches.

Yes, the Inter Miami and Al-nassr match is really missed because it will see Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo meeting and indeed the Al-Hilal match against Inter Miami will open up opportunities for Luis Castro, namely looking for Al-Hilal's weaknesses so that in the next match Al-Nassr will face Al-hilal luis castro already knows Al-hilal's weakness.
