It's just that they didn't start the season perfectly because their first two matches ended in defeat. But I remain optimistic that Al Nassr will be able to maintain their pace with the winning trend they have achieved. Apart from that, Ronaldo, Sadio Mane and Talisca have found their best form to complement each other to be able to contribute to continuing to win. For the time being, Al Nassr has a point difference that is getting closer to the team above it.

For other teams, they continue to try to maintain their consistency so as not to lose points in vain. Because if they fail to take advantage of one opportunity, other teams will shift their ranking. Currently, Benzema and Ronaldo are the two players who steal the attention in every game, but for Neymar he has not been able to provide much attraction after his first debut did not go well.

Al Nassr have competitive opponents for the SPL title, only the best team will lift the title. Al Nassr have high quality players that are determined to win significant trophies this season, it would be entertaining to watch the beat actions from these players this season. The Knights of Najd would impressed the supporters, however they have started their best game tactics, thrashing their opponents with ease efforts. Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mané do form quite brilliant pairing in the frontline, but the fact, Ronaldo is favorite to become the top goal scorer this season because he's consistent in his excellent performance.

Al Nassr got forwards like Mane and Ronaldo and I think the top scorer of this season will be between the palyer in their team.
Ronaldo scored two goals but it doesn't mean Al Ahli is not a good team and they don't have strong players like Al Nassr, we should not forget there are many famous players, playing in Al Ahli in this season.

I think even though he leaves the league I think the league is the going to be popular because Ronaldo's represence has already created awareness to the league and alot of his fans viewing the league league because of him will still want to continue viewing the their matches because of how interesting it has become, moreover Ronaldo is not the only world class player in the league, there are still others like Neymar, Benzema, kante, and several other veteran players thst joined this season.

 I just like how Ronaldo has improved the Al-Nassr league this season and I think there's a very high probability that they might win the league this season, though they'll face a very strong competition from their rivals, Al-ittihad and Al-Hilal who are currently at the top of the league, Al-Nassr are currently at the 5th position, 3points behind the current leaders, which means they still got a good chance of winning the league if they drop points again for a long time.

Yes indeed, basically as long as Ronaldo is still playing then of course the team and the league will remain popular. Moreover, the competition in the Saudi Pro League is also becoming more interesting because yes, with the balance to bring in star players from several existing clubs also makes its popularity increase. Moreover, at this moment that Al Nassr still has to have great efforts to be at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings. So yes, with that factor too, of course. every time Al Nassr plays, Ronaldo will also still try hard to get three points. Therefore, the matches played by Al Nassr will still be interesting and will never be boring, even though they only play against mediocre teams in this league.

Jesus left his previous team with problems. When he was coach of Fenerbahce, there were reports that he had signed with another team and from then on points were lost in matches. Jesus' attitude in general is not good. Everyone criticized Neymar but Jesus is a difficult man to understand. He thinks he knows everything but he doesn't.

I don't know if Neymar is wrong in this debate, but I think Jesus is wrong. When he was at Fenerbahce he continued to play a lot of underperforming players and let them lose points.

You can't call a coach who didn't play Arda Güler when he was at Fenerbahce successful. Jesus is a very stubborn person and this stubbornness often leads to problems with players.

If you look at it from a business perspective, Al Hilal management seems to be agreeing to Neymar request. I realize that Neymar has a typical demanding character, and in the midst of a situation where the club is in the process of improving the image of the SPL, Neymar will be prioritized, it seems. However, I personally hope that something else happens, Neymar and Jesus can work together for a long time and choose a middle path to bring Al Hilal to finish at the top of the standings this season.

The money spent by Al Hilal to bring in the Brazilian striker was very large, and the salary given by the club was also quite large. However, so far Neymar has not shown a contribution commensurate with his price, if the situation gets hotter it is likely to have an impact on the club performance in the next match.

Talisca is such a good player. What happened is that he didn't have the desired fame and hype of the social media. If not for the presence of Ronaldo, he is one of such stars like AbuBhakar which the media will not report their efforts no matter how hard they try. Talisca himself acknowledge that Ronalso has brought him to the light of football. He is a good goal scorers. Few days ago I watched a match that he scored brace.
As you observed that the time is still far, maybe Al Nassr will have to learn how to play with only two finishers and  have a reserve incase of injuries or fatigue. The club knows what he is doing, just trust him.

Al Hilal spend the wrongly on signing Neymar, he would served no purpose for the club, he keeps dribbling and doesn't mean business, which happens to be one of the purpose he was signed. Perhaps he's still new to the system, and he would relaxed with time. Al Hilal spend hugh figures for signing Neymar Jr from PSG this summer. The Brazilian is yet to show his impact on the team, rather he keeps making complains on the pitch and using aggressive language on the pitch towards his opponents and referees, basically that's his normal character, I'm already acquainted with him.

Actually, this is the first step they took, I'm sure they are already preparing for the next step in making a breakthrough as we know it today. Maybe in terms of popularity, it is very difficult to beat the popularity of leagues in Europe such as the Premier League, but what they are doing now is definitely making them more known to many people. And I'm sure even this forum didn't follow the SPL at first, but after this buzz we started to pay attention and started watching or even betting on SPL matches.

I don't see anything wrong with them popularising their championship with big money. Any PR campaign requires a huge amount of money, and they only had to spend really big money once - on Ronaldo. And after his move to the league, other big names started coming in, but for less money, but still huge for the football world, it's like a domino effect, and very positive.

Al Nassr is the most competitive team in this competition, when compared to the other 3 teams. they have Ronaldo, Sadio Mane, Otavio, Taiaca, Brozovic, Fotana, these players are quite reliable in every match they play. especially Ronaldo, he has colleagues who are able to provide services to him. So it would be very natural if Ronaldo was much more productive than last season. Last season, Ronaldo played 16 matches and was only able to score 14 goals. Ronaldo has only played 7 matches this season, but he has scored 9 goals. and that, has the potential to further increase his goal tally every time he plays match after match in this competition. It could be that this season Ronaldo will be the top scorer. Likewise with Mane, from his 7 matches he has contributed 6 goals in this league. Al Nassr, is quite productive in terms of scoring goals.

However, they also have competitors, Al Hilal who are no less productive and they have scored 21 goals in 7 matches. Al Hilal players are quite productive when it comes to scoring goals, especially if Neymar has been able to adapt well. Of course, this will add to the excitement of this competition. Now the two teams are only separated by 2 points, and the competition in the future will be even more intense.

Likewise with Al Ittihad, who are now at the top of the standings. What is certain is that it will not be easy for Ronaldo and Al Nassr to win the league trophy this season even though they have a competitive squad. because their competitors are also quite strong and great. I'm sure the fight for trophies this season will be more exciting than the previous season.

Ronaldo increasing the revenue of the league by 650% (even if this is just him last year and not all the stars they got this year) is normal because it was a league nobody even heard of. By comparison let me put it this way, this topic wasn't even created before he went there, it is not like he went to Spain back again and increased their revenue, we are talking about a league that didn't even had a topic here, obviously he would be very  big.

I mean even MLS was known just a little bit more, not really a lot more though, we knew it from Beckham back in the day and for a short sting Zlatan, so that sort of made sense but it was unknown too. All in all I would assume that Ronaldo is a huge name in sports world, so it was expected to have something like this.

For me there is nothing wrong with the referee's decision and I see everything is fine because the referee is wiser with his decision and this doesn't mean because I am an Al Nasr fan or not, but some of the scores that Ronaldo managed to achieve were no problem whatsoever and neither crossed the offside line.
But with what you said, I became curious why you said this about the referee problem? Meanwhile, everything went very well and Al Ahli's defeat was indeed a fate that had to be accepted when they visited Al Nasr with a narrow score and I also appreciate the performance of Al Ahli who were able to secure their position with a very narrow score.
So Al Ahli's defeat doesn't look bad because they were able to maintain the defense line so they didn't concede too many goals.

The news writes that after the game where Neymar received a yellow card (instead of a red one), the coach criticized his indiscipline in the locker room after the game (quite logical in my opinion). But after that, Neymar complained to the club owners and wants the coach to be fired! Can you imagine how arrogant this guy is? Poor Saudis, for the price of Neymar they could have bought 4-5 stars who would earn their salaries honestly, but instead they got an asshole who will drag the club to the bottom.

Yes indeed, Ronaldo managed to make two goals in the match against Al Ahli but Ronaldo did not make assists, while Talisca also managed to make two goals in the match but Talisca also managed to make assists in this match. With that result, it is certainly worthy for Talisca to be man of the match in this match, because Talisca managed to make a big contribution to the winning that Al Nassr got in this match. But yes, if we relate it to the list of top scorers, then of course Ronaldo has succeeded so far. So hopefully, Ronaldo will be able to maintain his position at the top of the top scorers in the Saudi Pro League this season, because last season Ronaldo failed to become the top scorer in the Saudi Pro League.

Well yes, obviusly the fanbase of Cristiano Ronaldo allways is gonna follow him and see his games, but if you want to be a sustainable league in the time you need to start to make a fanbase for the teams or the league, and Ronaldo doesnt have so much time left in his legs.

2 goals made by Ronaldo against Al Ahli. This also made An Nassr narrowly win by 4-3. This condition makes Ronaldo even further away from the temporary SPL Top scorer. Until week 7 Ronaldo has made 9 goals, much more productive than last year. In addition, Ronaldo proved he is still good enough if he has a partner who is able to provide services in the form of good passes. While the newly arrived Mane has also made 6 goals.

Ronaldo moving to the Saudi Pro League heped as a medium to attract other players to move to the SPL as well and it attracted multiple top players around the world to the league this season including the Ballon D'or winner Karim Benzema and let's not forget that even though ronaldo has the highest football fans, fans of other top footballer would continue viewing the match even though Ronaldo decides to retire from football.

 And I don't think he'll want to retire soon, maybe he'll stay for about two more years and before then more stars would be come into the league making it more interesting, of course most of these players came for the financial benefits but atleast their presence is making the league stronger and better for viewing to be entertained by it, it you watch the Asian cup final between Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal you'll understand, it was so interesting and attracted alot of viewers and comments on social media concerning the game.

 However it takes a gradual process to get to the top, and i love how the Saudi's are gradually setting a standard in their league and it even better than it was in the previous years currently and i believe they'll do better than the Chinese league who got crumbled due to the Covid 19 outbreak, corruption, financial issues etc we all know financial issues can be a problem to the Saudi League.

In Al Nassr they bought a palyer who can be a true leader for their team which is a big advantage for Ronaldo and his team, we all know Ronaldo is more than just a normal player for Al Nassr.
But Neymar is younger and he can palyer for a longer time, there is a chance for Ronaldo to get retired at the end of this season but Neymar can definitely palyer for more years.
