If you were a sports director or a manager, would you have signed Neymar in this condition? Of course, Neymar is a very gifted player, but nobody signs a player that earns high but is almost spending two seasons on the bench due to injuries. There is no shame in leaving him out of the Brazilian national team and not finding a club. In football players are sometimes forced to retire early due to injuries. Anyway, if he recovers and becomes fit, I believe some clubs will come for him.

The dream of most clubs in the Saudi Professional League is to defeat Al Hilal. Their dominance in the Gulf League is making it look non-competitive. Other clubs such as Al Nassr, Al Ittihad, and Al Ahli are also enjoying the financial support of The Public Investment Fund (PIF) and they would have to put in more effort to ensure that a new champion emerges this season.

Al Hilal has being very consistent since last season and they're the worst nightmare of Al nassr, Al Nassr tried several times but couldn't defeat Al Hilal and they still haven't made any improvements to their teams to be sure that they can defeat them if they meet again. Al Nassr and Al Hilal meets on the 11th of November and both teams have being on an incredible form therefore it's going to be exciting to watch both teams play but Al nassr has to be the underdogs in this game as they haven't scored any win against Al Hilal in their last 5 meetings. Al Hilal is setting at the top of the table with a 100% clean records after 6 games, 6 wins this season.

Neymar was considered one of the best strikers of all time but has spent most of his career on the bench due to injuries. As a result, despite having talent and skills in himself, he has not been able to fully express himself in the world of football. Had he not been sidelined due to injury problems, he might have won the Ballon d'Or and other individual awards by now. When he was healthy, Neymar played well in most of the matches even played an important role in the team's victory.

Football fans are still hopeful that Neymar will be able to perform like before when he returns to football once he recovers. Being out of the field for a long time, his performance may be lacking. He is still undergoing treatment, working to maintain his fitness, and it is not yet certain when he will be able to return to football.

Basically, the world of football certainly recognizes that Neymar is indeed a great player at his best. The reason is, in his best performance, Neymar has extraordinary abilities, and Neymar also has a very fast running speed. So it is not surprising to say that Neymar was the best player at that time. However, after Neymar left Barcelona and decided to play at PSG, Neymar's performance at that time did decline slightly. But even so, Neymar still managed to bring success to PSG. However, after several seasons of Neymar playing at PSG, he started to experience frequent injuries, and that's where Neymar's performance started to be less than good. Maybe this is also caused by Neymar's bad lifestyle. The reason is, Neymar often parties and also drinks alcoholic drinks. Even during one of his training sessions with PSG, Neymar was reportedly still half drunk. So, it is natural that Neymar often suffers injuries. Because he is also not optimal in taking care of his own body and also lacks discipline. So Neymar's fate is now a little uncertain, because as we know Neymar has been dropped by Al Hilal to compete in the SPL. But from the news circulating, it is reported that Neymar will only be played by Al Hilal in the Asian Champions League. This is still just a rumor, so there is no clear certainty regarding this matter. But hopefully Neymar can actually appear again with Al Hilal this season in whatever competition it is.

Haaland and Jude are not wingers, I don't know why they're on this list.
When Neymar is fit and in the pitch he's a better winger than Mbappe and Vinicius. He's even better than Salah, but that would be too much of an argument. Bale and Hazard were never on Neymar's level.

Vinicius is in Brazil, but they still need Neymar to carry them. There's no way Neymar will be fit and they'll bench him ahead of Vini. Now if I get offered Neymar or Vini for my team, I'll choose Vini because he's young and has many more years to play, but right if we say both of them should be fit now and be in the same pitch, Neymar will perform better than every winger you listed.

I admit that Al Hilal can always achieve success in every season. But one day there will definitely be another team that will thwart Al Hilal from winning the SPL title. For now, Al Nassr, who was expected to beat Al Hilal, has failed, but I am sure that Al Nassr can definitely break Al Hilal dominance. Al Nassr currently has a new coach who I think can take the team to a higher level and I hope that in the meeting between Al Hilal and Al Nassr, Pioli can give his best for Al Nassr.

Al Hilal is the only team that is unbeaten and can get full points from all the matches they have played, that is a good record and also makes them unbeaten since last season in the Saudi Pro League. Al Hilal is very tough, they are hard to stop, even the team that is expected to beat them can't do much when they have to face them.
Their chances of defending the title are very high, and that is something that is very natural because looking at their appearance, they are the team with the most solid appearance in my opinion. From the back line, midfield, to the front line they can play well. That is the key to their success.

Neymar belonged to top 5 players, that is right but only right like 3 years ago or a little farther to the past like 5 years ago. Neymar together with Bale, and Hazard were considered as best players in a next generation after Messi, Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic but they never won Ballon d'Or. Now Bale and Hazard retired and only Neymar is playing but he is no longer as one of best 5 players. Mbappe, Haaland, Vinicius, Jude, Salah and other players are better than Neymar now.

With big assumption that he has no injury, and his body was not affected by previous injuries, you can award Neymar a Ballon d'Or, but in reality it is impossible.

He is in recovery progress but there is uncertainty on when he will be able to play and will he play many matches before his next injuries. With an old player and with very long injury record, Neymar will struggle a lot to come back.

In my opinion, Neymar is still very good. He's still among the top 5 best players in his position in the world. The major problem he has is his chronic injuries. Take the injuries away and no player in Europe is a better winger or better attacking midfielder than Neymar. Right now he's just returning from an ACL injury that kept him away for 11 months, and he won't still be able to play till January. No matter how good a player is, I doubt he is worth it with all those injury crises, considering how much he earns.

To show how good Neymar still is, if he gets back to full fitness he'll walk back straight into the Brazil starting team and will make the team a better team, he's that good. Although, no matter how good he is, I don't see any big European club that's ready to employ Neymar because of his current injury. His ability was never in question.

Well, it's a bit difficult, he does it all for his country, although the Saudi club is giving him a lot of money and I think that out of gratitude and because he has great ethics he should make more of an effort. Maybe he didn't contribute much because they play against high-level players and the fear of injury is unique. I think that little by little he can relax more.


Maybe, but Ney is like a symbol that can be used by the same team. The good thing about Ney is that he sees football the way Ronaldo , Roberto Carlos , and Dinho do, and it is that particular, traditional Brazilian game , and that is what Brazil has lost.

In my opinion it is not much compared to last season where Al Hilal did not experience defeat for a whole season and only achieved 3 draws, since last season Al Hilal has indeed appeared impressive with their consistent performance and it seems they will repeat it again this season their unbeaten record is still continuing and no one has stopped them even Al Ittihad who are currently also performing strongly in the SPL have not been able to stop Al Hilal's record I also doubt other clubs including Al Nassr last season this club was always defeated by Al Hilal in many meetings.

Only very rich clubs in Saudi Arabia with financial support from their government can pay very lucrative salary to Neymar. The player is useless in the last two seasons by getting a serious injury, missing many matches and even now, he is not fully ready for matches with a latest failed medical examination from Al Hilal.

Neymar is earning a lot of money from Al Hilal but he can learn lessons from some Brazilian players like Ronaldino, Dani Alves who broke financially after their retirement. Earning hundreds of million of dollars is good but Neymar must manage his personal finance well, if he does not want to be broken financially like Ronaldinho and Dani Alves, who received financial support from Neymar in their worst times too.

I was arguing with a friend about Neymar and I made it clear to him that he is indeed a great player but beyond his time with the Brazilian team and the Brazilian national team, he has always been hyped far more than the results. He did exceptionally well at Santos, maybe that was where he raised the hopes and expectations of many people so when he came to Europe, people expected so much from him and he was struggling to keep up with this expectations, sometimes becoming frustrated and unhappy when he fails to get the results. Being a keen follower of his, I can say that he enjoyed his best football career at Santos where he displayed exceptional skills, he was free minded and not under any pressures and had fun playing the game. He made some good achievements with Barcelona but his move to PSG was not a great one if you ask me. From his time at PSG till date, he has been having a hard time in his career.

Yes, I personally am also very impressed with Cristiano Ronaldo because his performance is still good even though he is no longer young. Yes, since joining the SPL, Cristiano Ronaldo has always scored goals in every match and of course we won't know how long he will stop scoring goals, but what is clear is that in my opinion he is a rare star player.

Yes, maybe that's Cristiano Ronaldo's secret because he is always disciplined in everything, so his performance to date is still good. Yes, Ronaldo is still much needed by his country (Portugal) and others because when we see him competing for his country, Cristiano Ronaldo always looks better and is certainly not inferior to his country's young players either. Yes, I also believe that Ronaldo deserves the title of the most disciplined and best footballer at the moment.

Indeed, Cristiano Ronaldo has not been able to bring many trophies to Al-Nassr to date in the domestic league or in Asian football. But yes, I hope that by changing the Al-Nassr coach, Al-Nassr can play better and hopefully the dreams of Al-Nassr and Cristiano Ronaldo under Pioli's tutelage can be achieved.

No team ever needs a player like Neymar. He is totally not in the good firm and he can't play like his old days. To be honest, the time when he had a good performance was just years ago when he was playing for Barcelona and in the new days when he played for PSG but other than these days he couldn't have a good performance at all and now if you check the pictures of this player you can see Neymar is getting fat.
Neymar was the best player in his country and one the best players in the world but now Al Hilal even removed his name from the list of the Saudi League.

The news is just an issue, Neymar will not go to Barcelona and Barcelona no longer needs Neymar's services. Not because he is not good, but Barca currently chooses its young players. In addition, several Barcelona players can also be rotated like in Neymar's position. If someone likes Neymar to return to Al Hilal, that's natural, vice versa. Because both have their reasons. So, this is something common in football. IMO, Al Hilal has poured a lot of money into Neymar and so is his salary, he has only played a few matches. It would be a shame if Al Hilal just let him go, so the potential to keep him has a high probability in my opinion. Moreover, if Neymar's return makes Al Hilal even more fierce and sharp. But otherwise, it is a risk that the club will inevitably take. Let's just wait, I'm sure Neymar will return to play with his team under the guidance of Jorge Jesus.

Neymar has had a difficult time with injuries that continue to occur repeatedly, so it has forced him to continue to miss every game so far, the last time he suffered an ACL injury in a world cup qualifying match and forced him to miss a season of matches played by Brazil and Al Hillal at the moment, but now it is reported that Neymar has started to return to training and show if he is starting to recover.  so it is likely that in the near future he will return to play with Al Hillal later, although Neymar may return to the field later but to see him return to his best form is obviously something difficult to happen, because after all a player who has a long injury history will find it difficult to return to development because the possibility of him having an injury will happen again at any time.

At Al Hilal, Mitrovic's performance was very impressive, because in the past two seasons Mitrovic has often been a very sharp goal machine for Al Hilal. Maybe if Al Hilal didn't bring in Mitrovic, I'm sure Al Hilal's front line would not be as good as it is now. Apart from that, we talked about why Mitrovic didn't play in Europe, even though his performance was quite good. Before joining Al Hilal, Mitrovic previously played in the English league and joined Fulham. But at Fulham Mitrovic's performance could be said to be normal and not like it is now. Maybe the tight competition in the English league makes it a little difficult for Mitrovic to compete. That's why Mitrovic was released by Fulham to Al Hilal. And it was at Al Hilal that Mitrovic's performance really changed drastically. Because in almost every match with Al Hilal, Mitrovic was always able to score goals. So it could be said that this is quite an extraordinary thing.

And Al Hilal this season seems to have the potential to become champions again in the SPL. Because it has been proven that until now Al Hilal is indeed strong in maintaining its top position in the SPL. Al Nasr and Al Ittihad are indeed strong teams, and these two teams also have the potential to become champions in the SPL. But if we compare the performance of these two teams with Al Hilal, the results are still good for Al Hilal. Because Al Hilal looks like it no longer has any gaps, while Al Nasr and Al Ittihad still have many gaps that need to be repaired. So that's why Al Hilal has the potential to become champions again in the SPL.

Aleksandar Mitrovic is having a good performance in the Saudi Arabia league than the great player's like Benzema, Ronaldo and Neymar, it is not bad for him to have a good performance and it is very good because he is showing that he is a good striker, but I want to ask a question, why is Mitrovic not playing in Europe despite having this kind of performance every season in Saudi pro league, he is always AL Hilal best player and he always help the team when the team needs him, his salary is not much as Benzema, Ronaldo and Neymar but he is having a good performance every season.

AL Hilal is having a good performance this season again and they are currently leading the table with 18, AL Ethihad is in second place with 15 points and AL Nassr is in the third position with 14 points, I don't think AL Nassr is capable of defeating AL Hilal because AL Hilal is still that strong team we know, AL Hilal is not giving any chance of losing any game this season and we can see that from their performance, AL Hilal might be losing in the first half of the match but in the second half they will win the game with many goals and defeat the opponents, AL Nassr and AL Ethihad need to put more effort to play against AL Hilal.

Here I have different opinion because currently as things are going most chances we will have Neymar Jr into any Brazilian club instead of any reputable league because after few months he could be at the 33 with his mostly career is having too many injuries and his off the field issues are also having some impact on this playing career.

As we are having some reports he will be back in January but most chances it's never looking easy as he is having troubling time due to his injury but if he needs to bring himself into soccer ground then he needs to have some changes which can bring something positive for him, and he will be able to give his best even it is looking not easy but still looking possible for him as he is having good body which can give him good playing time but injuries and other things are having serious impact which are surely looking not good for him.
