Topic: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 - page 743. (Read 118491 times)

Dude, I believe that you are still stuck in the 20th century. Arabian leagues are some of the most popular in the world now. Saudi Professional League is now watched across the globe and the signing of Ronaldo by Al Nassr has further increased the popularity of the league. And in the next few years, the situation will change further. Saudi Arabian monarchy has big plans related to sports events and they are trying really hard to win the hosting rights for the 2030 FIFA World Cup. And Ronaldo is just the tip of the iceberg. Don't be surprised if you see star players such as Kylian Mbappé and Neymar representing the SPL sides within the next few years.

Okay, but I don’t argue that for some parameters (and especially for parameters close to commerce) the Premier League is in first place, but in my opinion, according to the totality of parameters (mainly sports), La Liga dominated at that time.
As for the number of viewers and other media metrics, this is always controversial for me, because you know that the number of audience does not always mean the quality of the content.

If we are talking about which league is better, then you can say la liga, or say which league has better teams or which league has a bigger chance etc etc. Whereas when we are talking about which league is watched more? That's also a stat that doesn't lie and people all over the world watch premier league more than they watch any other league.

That's why La Liga could win all the europa and ucl they want, but people will tune in for the premier league weekend games and they won't do the same thing for la liga, well they will, but not as much as EPL. Does that make any sense? Like why is la liga better and premier league watched more? I do not know, it doesn't make sense to me neither but it simply does.

A little offtopic, but I'm really interested in this question: do you really think that in the days of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Sevilla which dominated Europe and the fact that all the best players in terms of individual performance played in the La League, the Premier League was really better? 



Probably the only measure the Premier League has been ahead of is commerce, but what does that have to do with sports? In addition, we know how many frauds and dirty schemes were used there.

Hope you know about the charges against Barcelona for bribing referee to enable them win games as they get calls that favors them. These are things that make La Liga not credible to the premier league. All league has their frauds and dirty schemes but what Barcelona has done is more fraudulent then whatever you think the premier league has done. We could see how easily players from the premier league has been ables to dominate La Liga. From Ronaldo to bale, Luka Modrić etc. Lets look at how many goals Ronaldo was able to score at La Liga compared to the premier league. La Liga is less competitive, this all the factors used to placed the premier league as the best league in the world.

when the person becomes greedy, the person becomes blind, and what is happening with ronaldo, he could have chosen to reduce his salary and accepted to play in a small team but that was in the main league and was from one of the main leagues like La Liga, Premier League, Ligue1 or Bundesliga. but as cristiando ronaldo always played for big teams in the best leagues and was the best player in those big leagues, he didn't accept relegating himself to playing in a small team, even here it can be something normal for someone who has already reached the top, so what should he do have done was to retire to maintain his good image. the guy is already very rich, what else does he want to prove to the world?

but instead of retiring he went to play in arabia where the quality of soccer is very low and even he plays with people who don't have much talent he can't play well, he can't score many goals, even to score 1 goal It's been difficult, he's gone to ruin, he's going to retire without glory and with his name being the subject of jokes, and that's what's going to happen, all because of greed. he could have stayed at manchester united, even if he was on the bench and entered sometimes he just needs to improve himself that he would have a place in the starting 11, but he went to complain about the team in public, humiliating the team. I believe that all big teams were scared of him after the interview he spoke badly about manchester united


no one cares about this league and cups of arabia, the focus is on soccer in europe, and that's sad but it's the truth, all players dream of playing in europe, being in the european champions league where the best of the best are playing, see that even good leagues like the brazil leagues where there are good players, the good players in the brazil leagues dream of playing in europe. if we compare the brazil league with that of arabia, it will be the same as comparing a professional player (the one from brazil) against an amateur player (the one from arabia), in europe it is the same thing, the one from brazil is still amateur compared to that of Europe. so ronaldo even earning a lot of money is playing soccer at an amateur level

Reaching at the level of English Premier League in next 50 years is not possible because they have not stuffed like England and things are surely completely different with conditions and geographical problems as well, but one thing is surely they can do good in next few years which is surely going to be had good chance for this region because recently we have good competition in these Gulf countries for having good soccer team, and they will surely invest big amounts for which will bring latest facilities for players and other structure which will help them few Asian countries are recently also serious about soccer game which is also good.

Qatar World Cup and now transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo in this Saudi Professional League is going to be positive for them because now they can bring many other players as well which will also increase their presence and finances as well.

Today there will be one match between Al-Khaleej vs Al-Taee. Here Al-Khaleej, who will be the host, still has to struggle to get away from the relegation zone immediately, they must win this match so that their position is safer in the standings. For Al-Taee, who lost to Damac FC in the previous match, now they will try to shift Damac FC's position to 7th place in the standings. I think the score will end with a narrow win for either of these two teams.

Presence of Ronaldo have given big hype to the league. Based on the teamform rating Saudi Pro League is placed at the 6^th position among the leagues played in Asia and 66^th position on the world ranking. As mentioned even after 10 years it is really tough for the league to reach the ratings as EPL. In the upcoming years we can see good number of star players moving into the league, but that doesn't completely change the league.

Before u start seeing Saudi Arbia professional league to be in the same height as EPL,  please know that Even when Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar,  iniesta, and so many other world class players were playing in Spanish la liga and German Bundesliga, EPL was still considered the best league.
epl isn't considered the best league because of the number of stars playing in it. Ratings like  goals per game, red cards per game, continental wins per season and other factors are also involved. I don't see Saudi Arabian league reaching EPL in this ratings, not even in the next 10 years.

while it’s definitely not the number one league, but due to the mere presence of Ronaldo it’s buzzing in the same wavelength as the premier league. Furthermore when more star player’s decide to join in the summer transfer window I feel that it’s popularity might become equal to or even more than the Premier League, and thus I won’t be surprised if many young player’s down the year’s prioritise joining it first over other leagues.

Well its normal when he isnt playing home that he would be treated badly. There are people who want to get in his head so that he plays bad. He usually turns it off in his head and plays at best possible level. Now he wasnt able to score again but his team won and that is what is important.

I was saying that the Saudi Professional League is now very popular across the globe. It was Slow death who tried to downplay the Arabian leagues. I still would not go to the extent to say that Saudi Professional League is the most popular football league in the world. But they do rank among the top-10 leagues. And it is not just the presence of Ronaldo. A number of quality overseas players are participating in this league and there are rumors that some of the big names in Europe and South America are considering moving to the SPL.
