I also cannot deny that Al-hilal is not only superior in terms of the quality of their game, but they also have other advantages, such as the mentality of their players who always play and never give up. In fact, they are always able to turn things around in the end. As in the match against Al-Ahli, we know that throughout the first half Al-hilal was 1 goal behind. but in the second half Al-hilal managed to turn things around and make the match theirs. And yes, there is no doubt that their attack line can cover the shortcomings of their back line.
You can't even say that to Al Hilal because if you look at their last 10 match you won't find a single defeat or a draw. Due to which their hard work and success is getting superior, that is why they are winning matches and their record is getting so good. Many people are like them more and more.They have experience that surprise everyone and there are more things that they use. Now to see if Al Hilal keeps the win if any team beats them.

It is not wrong for the world to judge him as one of the best players that has ever existed in the world today, when we see that players who have been the same age as or even lower than Ronaldo have made the decision to retire, but in fact Ronaldo is still able to show extraordinary performance, physique and stamina at the moment, I think if we compare the ages of Ronaldo and Rooney we can see how different ages and appearances are obvious now
, in 39-year-old, but Ronaldo still showing his existence as a great footballer with extraordinary abilities with Al Nassr today, and his discipline and dedication to diet, rest and training are really the keys to his success to stay competitive at a fairly old age, I think what Ronaldo is doing at the moment on maintain his physique, stamina and also ability is very worthy of following and imitating by other footballers and not following what Pogba is doing by taking doping drugs.
Never smoked
Never drink alcohol
Doesn't have tattoos
Absolutely avoid drinking fizzy drinks
These four things are big examples that other footballers should emulate from Ronaldo. However, doing these things will certainly be difficult, so it requires hard work, totality and high consistency to be able to make these things into a habit. Apart from that, consuming doping like Pogba did, I think this is a really bad example. Because I am sure that long-term use of doping will definitely have an adverse impact on the body. Apart from that, in the world of football doping is completely prohibited, so using or consuming doping is of course a violation, which is why Pogba's fate is currently not good, because he was given a ban from playing for several years. Therefore, imitating Ronaldo in terms of discipline in his life as a football athlete is the best way to achieve maximum results. And Ronaldo also applies this habit to his children too. Maybe if Ronaldo's son can really implement his father's habits, I'm sure his son will become a great soccer player too.
Rooney is indeed a perfect comparison, because Rooney is almost the same age as Ronaldo, in fact Rooney is one year younger than Ronaldo. However, we can see that in terms of posture and skill, Rooney is clearly very far from Ronaldo at his current age. So here we are taught that Ronaldo has really proven to us that by living a healthy lifestyle the results can indeed have a significant impact on the body.
Rooney is younger than Ronaldo and in early of Rooney career, he was considered as a more potential with greater talent than Ronaldo. Rooney was like several years ahead of Ronaldo and things changed after World Cup 2010. Through that summer, Ronaldo ignored drama about him and Rooney in a match between England and Portugal, and only focused on gym. He returned to Manchester United with a very different body, stronger physically and since that summer, he became a brightest star player in Manchester United.Quote
Because from the news I read about Ronaldo, he
Never smoked
Never drink alcohol
Doesn't have tattoos
Absolutely avoid drinking fizzy drinks
These things are very big challenges for many players but if they can not be disciplined and avoid these things, their career will be shorter and we can have some examples like Rooney, Sneijder, Nasri, who had very overweight bodies after their retirements. Ronaldo is still playing and scoring many goals at this age, it's very impressive even I am not his fan. Never smoked
Never drink alcohol
Doesn't have tattoos
Absolutely avoid drinking fizzy drinks
I'm really tired of watching Ronaldo scoring goals for his team while he getting older. Ronaldo is much older than many players but if you check the performance of this player in Al Nassr since he joined there you can clearly understand that for Ronaldo age is just a number and now because of his performance he had, Ronaldo is famous in Saudi Arabia and he is much more than just player there in this country.
Even though Ronaldo is now old, it cannot be denied that his performance can still match several young players competing in the Saudi pro league. This is not surprising, because Ronaldo is a footballer who is truly disciplined in everything. Starting from diet, rest patterns and exercise patterns, Ronaldo always carries them out with great discipline. So it's not surprising that at his age, when many other footballers have retired, Ronaldo can still play quite well on the field. Because his discipline is what has enabled him to survive this far in the world of football. In fact, I'm sure all the world's footballers would agree if Ronaldo was named the most disciplined and best player at the moment. Because I personally have not found a player who has discipline like Ronaldo. Therefore, it is not surprising that at Al Nasr Ronaldo is always the sharp spearhead on the front line. Because without Ronaldo Al Nasr sometimes has difficulty scoring goals. Even in the Portugal national team, Ronaldo has always been called up in any competition to date. So hopefully with Al Nasr Ronaldo can get all the trophies in the Saudi Arabian domestic league or trophies in the Asian football arena. Because currently Ronaldo has not won many trophies with Al Nasr., in 39-year-old, but Ronaldo still showing his existence as a great footballer with extraordinary abilities with Al Nassr today, and his discipline and dedication to diet, rest and training are really the keys to his success to stay competitive at a fairly old age, I think what Ronaldo is doing at the moment on maintain his physique, stamina and also ability is very worthy of following and imitating by other footballers and not following what Pogba is doing by taking doping drugs.Never smoked

And yes, there is no doubt that their attack line can cover the shortcomings of their back line.
Al Hilal has indeed been very superior in the Arab League since long ago, so it is not surprising that they have a strong mentality, even though their team is behind but before the match ends they continue to try their best to be able to turn things around which makes them undefeated so far from the 6 matches that have been played.Al Hilal's toughness was also seen last season, they even managed to win the Arab League trophy without ever losing, just like Leverkusen in the Bundesliga. If Leverkusen can't repeat it again this season because they have experienced defeat, Al Hilal has the potential to repeat it this season like last season by winning the title without ever losing.
Al Nassr is indeed getting better, but in my opinion Al Hilal can dominate the Arab League this season. The reason is that Al Nasr still has weaknesses in the defense line while Al Hilal seems to have a complete and solid squad so it is very difficult for the opposing team to beat them.
Al Hilal has good quality players so Al Hilal is performing well but when these good players are joined by another good player, the performance of the team will be better. You directly said that Al Hilal does not need Neymar, if Al Hilal thought that Neymar would not be of any use to their club, then they would not have paid so much annual money for this season. If Neymar is fully fit then you can see him in every match for Al Hilal and he will contribute well for the team.
Indeed. The reason that Al Hilal could perform well because they have quality players and good tactics. Moreover, Al Hilal star players are still in prime age, it is different with Al Nassr star players. Sure, Al Hilal doesn't need Neymar, they have enough quality players in their lineup. Neymar mostly spent time for the recovery of his injury, he doesn't contribute much for Al Hilal. Even Neymar recovers, I personally think he won't bring significant impacts.Injuries are not a big problem for professional players. Neymar recovered from a serious injury in the World Cup match and managed to score a great goal against Croatia. We have nothing to doubt Neymar's skills.
I don't understand why you claimed injury isn't a big problem!! Injury surely is a big problem because it brings significant influence. Whenever a player gets a prone of injury, he usually gets difficulty to keep playing a long time. Many of them just decided to retire when they think it is hard to recover totally.
I think there are quality players in all teams but not all team players are used to consistent performances like Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal players. Al-Nassr have the exact same quality of forwards as Al-Hilal have, i.e. they are one of the best strikers of all time. They include Cristiano Ronaldo, the top goalscorer in football history and Sadio Mane, one of the best strikers who played for Liverpool and Bayern Munich. Even before Neymar joined Al-Hilal team, they were very strong ie they were equally strong in attack defense.
As a result, no team could defeat them easily because they were able to perform well everywhere and lead the team forward. Al-Nassr on the other hand have the best attack but their defense is weak due to which they played well in many matches but lost at the last moment, Although they have the best forwards in the team.
The quality of a coach seems to be the difference between Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr in recent seasons. Because the problem Al-Nassr has had since Cristiano Ronaldo came to Al-Nassr is their back line. And even though several coaches have been brought in, it turns out no one can handle it until last season or even the start of this season, namely in the Luis Castro era. But now that Piolo was brought in to replace Castro, it seems like everything is starting to change. Namely, Al-Nassr's defense line looks much stronger this time. And I think Pioli is ultimately the most suitable coach for this team. As a result, no team could defeat them easily because they were able to perform well everywhere and lead the team forward. Al-Nassr on the other hand have the best attack but their defense is weak due to which they played well in many matches but lost at the last moment, Although they have the best forwards in the team.
But Al-Hilal, which has had good balance since last season, will certainly still be difficult to beat this season. And I will be looking forward to Al-Nassr's meeting against Al-hilal this season in the SPL. And that will happen in week 9 of this season.
Al Hilal has good quality players so Al Hilal is performing well but when these good players are joined by another good player, the performance of the team will be better.

Al-Hilal looks like they will repeat their record from last season, namely that they had an unbeaten record. but actually I hope Al-nassr can stop them this season. And actually we have a little good hope for Al-Nassr this season after the team brought in Pioli to replace Castro. Now we see Al-nassr playing consistently and winning continuously after Pioli arrived. And hopefully this will continue so that Al-nassr can continue to approach Al-Hilal. And waiting for Al-hilal to make a mistake. But hoping that Al-Hilal will lose is quite difficult. Maybe we can hope that Al-hilal can get some draws that will allow Al-Nassr to approach them more easily.
I also thought that this season Al-Hilal would have difficulty maintaining their good performance which was below last season. but in reality this team is still as strong as last season.

Yes, this team is definitely still very strong, and honestly, I am not going to be surprised if they are able to win the league title again. I personally want Al Nassr to be in the title race till the end and maybe even win the title. But I don’t think they are actually consistent enough. At least they were not consistent enough in the last season. Maybe this time it is going to be different. But all we can do is hope and speculate.
Right now Al Hilal is at the top of the table and Al Nassr is in the third position. Al Ittihad is in the second position and so far it looks like they are performing really well. So far it suggests that the competition is going to be pretty good between these teams for the Saudi league title.

And yes, I also hope that Al-Nassr can compete again in the title race and yes, we want Al-Nassr to win the title in the SPL because this will be an important gift for Cristiano Ronaldo in his final achievements in the world of football before he actually retires. Because I'm not sure he will last more than the next 2 seasons.

your opinion is quite rational regarding Neymar, but what is certain is that they have spent a lot of money to use his services. clearly, it would be a shame if this Brazilian player was just released like that. the point is, until now Neymar's status is still part of the Al Hilal squad. in fact, Jorge Jesus has a plan to re-enter his name into the list of his team's squad. talking about Al Hilal being able to win trophies without Neymar, it has clearly been proven. Mitrovic and his colleagues played very solidly as a team. however, because they have a star player like Neymar, it is clear that they will use his services when he fully recovers. whether Neymar is still able to play well even though he has suffered a long injury, we don't know but he is a professional player who certainly maintains his fitness even though he is injured. besides, he will certainly do light training methods so that he is not stiff after returning to the field later. IMO, theoretically Neymar's return to the Al Hilal squad will further increase the attacking power and sharpness of this one team. and to be sure, we'll just have to see later after he has truly returned to the Al Hilal core squad.
Al Nassr will host Al Orobah this week, on paper Al Nassr is more favored, no doubt. However, they must remain vigilant against the team that will be their opponent this week, because AL Orobah did not come to suffer defeat, but they came with a mission to bring home points from this match, at least they will target 1 point to bring home.
Apart from that, Al Orobah brings quite positive capital, because in the last 2 matches they were able to win the match. The victory they achieved in the last 2 matches will make their morale even better and they will be motivated to continue their positive record.
It is a fact that Neymar is no longer in good physical shape as he was in years past. After this injury that kept him out of the field for many months, it seems to me that his only option will be to retire. He will not be able to play well for Al Hilal. He was out of action for 11 months. He has always been a player with injury problems, but now that he is 32 years old, things have gotten worse to the point that even in the Saudi league, he is not physically fit enough to compete. And honestly, I highly doubt that the Al Hilal coach will put him in the starting 11. They will probably put him in when the team is winning by many goals so that he can play for a few minutes.
The most important player in Al Hilal is Aleksandar Mitrović
He has already scored 9 goals and leads the list of top scorers. Al Hilal definitely does not need Neymar. Even for marketing reasons, Al Hilal already has a lot of attention, which is why in my opinion it would be better if Al Hilal did not renew Neymar's contract next season.
Injuries are not a big problem for professional players. Neymar recovered from a serious injury in the World Cup match and managed to score a great goal against Croatia. We have nothing to doubt Neymar's skills.

Mitrovic played very well for Al Hilal last season and he does not stop his good performances in this season. Before appearances of Ronaldo, Benzema, Neymar in Saudi Professional League, I did not know about Mitrovic. When Ronald joined this league, I knew about two strikers who competed with each other for the league best goalscorer, Talisca and Hamdallah but Mitrovic suddenly challenge Ronaldo for that personal award in the last season.
Top goalscorers
Hamdallah won three best scorer awards since 2018 - 2019 season, but now it's time for Mitrovic.
He has performed well at Al Hilal since he was recruited by the club last season, he seemed to replace Neymar's role, fortunately Al Hilal did not only recruit striker Neymar, if last season Alexander Mitrovic was not at Al Hilal, Al Hilal would most likely be in big trouble, but they were still lucky and managed to win the Saudi Pro League title thanks to Alexander Mitrovic's hard work.Top goalscorers
Hamdallah won three best scorer awards since 2018 - 2019 season, but now it's time for Mitrovic.
I also did not expect there to be a competitor for Ronaldo in the SPL in winning the Individual title even though I thought Ronaldo would be an unmatched star player here, even Karim Benzema also looks more productive this season and seems to be a stumbling block between Mitrovic and Ronaldo.
Aleksandar Mitrovic is a reliable player at Al Hilal, last season alone he was able to score 28 goals from the 28 matches he played, that means he scored 1 goal in every match if averaged out, that is a good statistic for a striker.
Last season is impressive but he is doing better in this season with 10 goals after only 6 matches. It is his short term impressive performances and it's not easy to maintain this form through a long season with many matches. In two latest seasons, Mitrovic is very goal productive and is a most reliable goal resource for Al-Hilal.Quote
With or without Neymar, it has no effect at all on Al Hilal, because without the presence of the former Barcelona and Paris Saint Germain player, they still performed well and were very pampering. Last season they were able to end the league without a defeat and this season they are also the only team that can get full points from all the matches they play.
Neymar can provide more creativeness, key passes and assists for Al-Hilal if he is healthy and can play regularly for the club. Fortunately, it's not what Neymar had and could contribute for Al-Hilal since his transfer to the club. Neymar with his experience and skills can change a match with his excellent moment but if his body is not ready for playing, he is useless for Al-Hilal. 
Al Ittihad still performed well and won, in this match Benzema played very competitively and I think he is starting to adapt well because in 6 matches he managed to score 7 goal with 1 assist, much different from last season which played 21 matches only scoring 9 goal and 7 assists.
Of all the Al Ittihad players for this season I really focus on Benzema because he is starting to look very good, I sure that in the future Benzema will return to performing competitively and become one of the reasons for Al Ittihad success this season.
Karim Benzema after drama of wanting to leave Al Ittihad and Saudi Professional League and return to Europe, finally stay there and he is playing better than the last season. Last season, there was a lot of hope on tight competitions among three biggest clubs, Al Hilal, Al Nassr and Al Itithad as well as player competition among three super stars, Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Neymar but only Cristiano Ronaldo played well.Of all the Al Ittihad players for this season I really focus on Benzema because he is starting to look very good, I sure that in the future Benzema will return to performing competitively and become one of the reasons for Al Ittihad success this season.
This season, we have Karim Benzema back to his best form and we will see an interesting race between 2 ex-team mates, Ronaldo and Benzema for a Best Scorer Award in Saudi Professional League.
Initially the desire to leave was because of his discomfort and really could not adapt but over time Benzema found all the comfort and was able to adapt slowly and in the end was much more confident to be able to play much more impressively.
From here I think maybe Benzema will finish his contract with Al Ittihad and throw away the thought of leaving and returning to Europe, if this impressive performance continues then it is likely that there will also be contract extension and Benzema can be here longer.
Next Al Ittihad will play against Al Qadisiyah and I think in this match Al Ittihad is able to win, on the other hand I hope for Benzema to be able to show his contribution again like in the previous match.
Ronaldo's not just a soccer player; he's a global brand. When he moved to Al-Nassr, he didn't just raise their profile; he put the entire Saudi league on the map. The guy's a walking economic stimulus package. Look at his personal ventures. He's got that insane following on social media, and they'll follow him anywhere. He starts a YouTube channel, it'll be the biggest thing on the platform
Ronaldo's not just influencing sports; he's shaping markets. He's got that Midas touch, but it's not about gold; it's about attention, engagement, and cold, hard cash. He's a one-man economic force, and wherever he goes, the money follows
When we're talking about the world success, mentioned Ronaldo because he has achieved his dreams and have become one of the most popular and decorated player in the world of football. He made so many people watched football due to his stellar performance and entertaining dribbles, very good footing on the ball. Ronaldo's not just influencing sports; he's shaping markets. He's got that Midas touch, but it's not about gold; it's about attention, engagement, and cold, hard cash. He's a one-man economic force, and wherever he goes, the money follows
Cristiano Ronaldo have diverts into other activities and watching him becoming more popular is key basis for him and his reputation. Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the influential powerful human in the universe, he gained popularity following his achievements and records in the European football, Perhaps Ronaldo have a life outside football. YouTube have become his main focus in recent weeks, surpassing many youtubers following his massive increased followers.

currently the SPL standings are still dominated by 3 strong teams who are favorites as title contenders this season, so far Al Hillal, Al Ittihad and Al Nassr have a fairly small point difference and there is still a possibility for a change in the standings later considering that they are has only playing 6 matches in the SPL, previously I thought that Al Hillal would face a difficult challenge and get the first defeat of the season when facing Al Ahli, but in fact they are still able to maintain their current unbeaten record after defeating Al Ahli with a score of 2-1, even though they got difficult in the match with a quite attractive and impressive game from Al Ahli, but again and again they were able to rise and make a comeback at the end of the match to solidify their position at the top of the current SPL standings.
Al-Hilal looks like they will repeat their record from last season, namely that they had an unbeaten record. but actually I hope Al-nassr can stop them this season. And actually we have a little good hope for Al-Nassr this season after the team brought in Pioli to replace Castro.

Injury has been one major problem with Neymar jr both when he was in Barcelona and PSG, I don't really think Neymar would want to retire at this age because of his injury, he will better want to choose to move to playe for a team that won't give him much of stress and, or hugely rely on him but to be more of a supportive player or coach player, and the Brazilian league will be a good option for him in this case
Yep. Injury becomes a serious problem for Neymar in his career. He is prone of injury, he is getting easily injured. Even worse, the injury takes a long time for the recovery. So Neymar can't do much to help his team, whether in Barcelona or PSG. I think it is the biggest reason why PSG wants to sell him to Al Hilal. Now in Al Hilal, the injury problem is never resolved, Neymar mostly sit on the bench. I agree with you that actually Neymar is better to consider for retirement. He can start for a new career (joining a training staff or being a coach assistant). This can be better that he forces himself to stay as a professional player but he never has enough time to play because of the injury problem.Jump to:
