Gabri Veiga was officially introduced as a new Al-Ahli player and he will be on the same team as Fiirmino, Mahrez, Maximin, Kessie, Ibanez and Mendy. The 21-year-old young player chose Al-Ahli as his new home in the Saudi league and the fee Al-Ahli had to pay to get him from Celta Vigo was around 36 million euros. With this, we can see that there are talented young players who have finally come to the Saudi league and unlike what we see, usually only European players who have finished coming here. Although it is too soon, I hope he will return to Europe one day and for now the focus is on bringing the best possible result for Al-Ahli.

I think going to Al Nassr in his 20s would not have made him the man he is now. Moreover I'm sure he won't come back to Europe, and if he does, he won't be at his former level, I think that's the reason why he stays in SPL, because the level of the teams is weaker, no matter what anyone says. But the fact that he is still in good form is undeniable. Let's see how he performs at the Euros by the way, that will be a good indicator

Maybe in the near future the MLS could emulate the same pattern that the Saudi league is using to develop their football industry, but that issues would be finance because they can't afford spend the huge capital those Saudi clubs use to lure players and convince teams to sell players to them although it would take a while before both leagues gets interesting and attracts more viewers to their leagues.
 What impresses me is how two great players moving to both leagues have begin to attract fans to their various, for instance before Ronaldo left for Al-Nassr i barely know things about both his club and the league in general but i currently love checking news about them likewise Messi when he went to Intermiami, it's made the club more popular and attracted more viewers to the club, i could imagine what would happen when they get more top players into the leagues the near it would be lovely for a new tournament to be created combining European,  Arab and American leagues.

They slowly picked up points after losing them in the previous game, and interestingly two of their star players were able to get on the scoresheet to give them a comprehensive win.
He's still sharp and I believe that, he just needs a good supply of the ball and he can be sharp in front of goal.

There is no doubt that the SPL is now much more competitive, that's because a lot of players are joining SPL clubs, one of which is owned by Alnassr. 3 matches early, there is still plenty of time for them to catch up, after all, they also haven't met each other with clubs that are at the top of the table now.
Ronaldo, Fimino, Mane are in the Top Scorers at the moment, although it's still early but it's quite interesting. One thing I want to see is whether they will dominate until the end of the league or not, what do you think?

Football is becoming more interesting lately and this is one of an exciting time for football lovers, The Saudi Arabian leagues have taken good shape following the European league's step to boost the football sporting industry with huge capital investment in players signing such as Christina Ronaldo and some other world players into the league,  but the MLS you mention is quite unpopular bit then let see how they go about in this season during the transfers window,  but in the main time,  one thing the Saudi Arabians are known for is the huge investment in players signing.

This won't be possible because in the MLS there are salary caps, which makes it less competitive regarding salaries. They have been quite creative with the contract that Messi signed whereas in the SPL it doesn't matter. They can spend billions on salaries if they want to and it wouldn't affect them negatively.

But I still doubt that the SPL will soon be a contender for the most attractive football league as signing a few former world class players doesn't just do the job. When five of the very best NBA players would sign contracts with basketball clubs from Saudi Arabia, that wouldn't that the NBA is at risk. To compete with European leagues it takes a lot more than what has happened so far.

The steps that the Saudi clubs have taken are significant already, but most people would still watch Manchester City against some other Premier League team instead of Al-Nassr because Ronaldo and Mane are playing there.

This looks very simple to guess and where this was heading at. Having the two best players in the world in one league will affect the total concentration of footballs lover in the world to just that side. The European football has already dominated the football world and that can’t be taken away from them easily. Spreading the attention of football lovers to other leagues is a good one as football is now a renowned game all over the world and one league can’t contain all the best players in the world with good pay rate.

Now the football focus is now divided into three, the European Football, the Saudi Arabian Football and the MLS which in my opinion feel it is okay to be so. I’m expecting major signings from the MLS for big players just like it happened in the Saudi League to make all leagues balance and competitive to watch.

In the match against Al Fateh, Mane was played in the right wing position. it seems, the rotation carried out by Luis Castro went according to what he wanted. while Talisca was absent in this match, so was Fotana. however, the role of the substitute player was quite impressive. Otavio, who filled in for Talisca, played quite well and it seems he is a newcomer.
By the way, I don't know how many foreign players are allowed to play as main starters in this competition. and if it's more than 5 players, it means that Al Nassr's front line will be filled by foreign players. I mean, the European players. this match was the first winning match, after previously they were more focused on other competitions. Supposedly, Luis Castro is able to maintain the consistency of his players. moreover, Al Nassr is a team that has many star players.
next week, they will fight Al Shabab. Previously, when these two teams met, the battle was always quite tough. but now, Al Nassr has a more competitive player depth. and supposedly, they were able to become the strongest team compared to other teams competing in the Saudi Pro League. well, after this victory, there is no reason for them not to win match after match, especially when playing matches against mediocre teams. otherwise, Al Ittihad, Al-Ahli and Al Hilal will further widen the points between them. like it or not, Al Nassr must reduce the difference in points.

Cristiano Ronaldo is still very sharp despite being 38, and it looks like Ronaldo and Mane are getting closer together in Al Nassr front line. They have the opportunity to become the top scorers in the SPL this season, of course this is not easy because there are other big names like Fermino and Benzema who will compete on this list. The competition will be tougher if Neymar makes his debut in the SPL with Al Hilal.

This season's Saudi Pro League is running more competitively, Al Nassr has not consistently been on a full winning path. I think they need to add a good midfielder to set the game in motion as a whole, but seeing as European transfers are running out it looks like this is going to be difficult.

I think they will bounce back with a good win against Al Fateh. If we rank the squad quality and power, it would be natural to put Al Nassr in the first place. Ronaldo scored 3 goals, Sadio Mane scored 2 and Al Nassr won 5-0 in total and I hope Al Nassr will start a good recovery process after this win. This win will at least motivate the team and make them more motivated for the other matches. We can expect Mane and Ronaldo to score a lot of goals here this season.

I don't know who exactly you are talking about but when talking about Ibrahimovic he is a football player who always does controversial things like committing deadly fouls and fights but all of that cannot be separated from his very good playing skills and can bring the club he is defending to win victory.
The last time Ibrahimovic played with AC Milan was in 3 seasons and he played at the end of his retirement and still managed to score 34 goals in 64 matches.
Now he is 41 years old and if he decides to join the Saudi club at the end of retirement then Ibrahimovic will definitely get a big payday at the end of his career as a football player, but unfortunately he chose to play with AC Milan until he decided to retire.

Although Ronaldo managed to make a hat trick in the away match against Al Fateh but still, the fact is that Al Nassr lost the previous two matches. So yes, I think Ronaldo is not able to consistently make Al Nassr consistently get points in every match. After all, before Ronaldo played at Al Nassr also the fact that Ronaldo failed big at Manchester United and thus, Ronaldo was already unable to play in difficult competitions like in Europe. So yes, playing in a competition that is not as difficult as in Europe and playing in this Saudi Pro League, at least Ronaldo can still adjust to his old age.

With the addition of Saido Mane to the Al Nassr squad, it really helped Cristiano Ronaldo to score goals. The match against Al Fateh was Al Nassr first win this season, after they lost the two previous matches. I don't think Ronaldo and his friends are completely on fire, even though they won with a promising score. Meanwhile, Al Nassr is in 10th place on the standings with 3 points, 6 points behind Al Ittihad and Al Expert at the top of the standings.

The next match Al Nassr will meet Al Ashahab, I see this club is better than Al Fateh. The statistics for the last four meetings between the two clubs, Al Nassr won two, drew once and lost once.

Zlatan was not even as good as ronaldo. Even the doctor has been also saying if ronaldo's physic was so good. He likes 28 - 30 years old. Ronaldo was always being so consistent in keeping his physic to be as healthy as possible.
I dunno why european team was feeling so skeptical about his age. Ronaldo was proving if he was still worhy enough to play in the professional football competition.

Yeah man, we see some sign of him slpwing his pace, not maybe in numbers because now he play in a weak league, but you can see in the quality of his goals how he lost some power, nothing bad for a guy of 38 years old, i have to said already excelent, no one has reach that age in this form, asides of maybe Zlatan.

Ronaldo had his unique game at his old age,many other players may get retired at this age.But his game was same as like his game at 25.The time to make a goal by Ronaldo was still low compared to his colleagues itself.The Portuguese blood Ronaldo making the game favor to the participating team irrespective of the team.Now he is rocking the Al Nassr with his forward game,the experience of the Ronaldo was still helpful to the Al Nassr.Most probably the Al Nassr going to rock this Saudi Arabia League by the influence of Ronaldo.

Mane and Ronaldo combination has been a big blessing for AL Nasr, they both make a good team but there is something that bothers me about Ronaldo, it is the anger issue. We all know that no man is perfect in his profession, there is room for visible mistakes and invisible ones even the linemen find difficult to interpret, some are ignored just for the fun of it because if things are been done, the fun of it will not be there again but Ronaldo get angry easily when things don't go in his favour, he pushed away a staff that was trying to take pics with him, not humble and very mannerless I must say.

I can't wait for their domestic leagues to get hot like the Saudi Premier League is just round 5, there are more players that have been signed but have not had time yet to be featured in any of the matches, I want to see distribution and less attention on Ronaldo, maybe Neymar can make hattrick too the same way Ronaldo did this week.

Despite his age, Cristiano Ronaldo isn't showing any sign of slowing down with his goalscoring prowess any time soon and that's to tell how great of an athlete he is. The Portuguese superstar is known for breaking so many football goalscoring records and is still very much in shape and capable to continue with his record breaking goals.
Al Nassr might not have signed him in his 20s but Cristiano Ronaldo is still capacitated to help them win the Saudi Arabian League title.

There os no doubt that Christaina Ronaldo will indeed score more goals in the Saudi league in this season since C Ronaldo have hard long record of success in his football career and all comes from his ability to create goals with any and every opportunity presented to him as a player,  and AL know what their we're doing to have gone for C Ronaldo instead of any other player as of that time,  but currently, the decision to go for C Ronaldo has paid off for them greatly.

The season just began and Christian Ronaldo's new club have recorded multiple victories already to show that C Ronaldo is a great asset to any club all that is needed for him to succeed is just love,  respect and understanding between the coach and the player alike.

Saudi is willing to shell out money and Cristiano Ronaldo is the first major signing and now some of the biggest players are moving to Saudi club and it is a huge move by them. The only thing that surprised me is that Messi backed out from the Saudi's even though they were willing to shell out a billion dollars for him and instead Messi moved to the US which i think is a tactical move which could change Football in US and garner more fans.
