Al Nassr must work hard to occupy the top of the Saudi Arabian League standings which is now occupied by Al Ittihad with a difference of 6 points.
and with a difference of 3 points, Al Nassr's chances of being at the top of the standings could be bigger if Cristiano Ronaldo cs is able to win the game and score lots of goals against Al Read nati, and it looks like Al Nassr will win this match and must always win in the remaining matches and hope in the rest of the Al Ittihad match there was a slip.
and for third and fourth place it looks like Al Nassr will not be able to catch up if Al Nassr consistently plays after winning against Al Read and winning every remaining match.

Although Ronaldo has some character flaws that have really affected his career negatively I don't think it is time for him to leave Al Nassr. Ronaldo is 38 years and cannot replicate his past performance as he did in Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus, so I think the club and its fans are expecting too much from an aged player. He needs more quality players to assist him to score more goals. He might not be able to create chances but with his experience, I know he can score goals.

Ronaldo was brought to the club not just for on-the-pitch performance. He came to the club to give the club and the league more publicity and attention. And the club has achieved that. He has also served as a mentor to so many players in Al Nassr because they have learned some things from him. I think the club should be patient with him.

There are 6 remaining matches with a point difference of 6 between Ittihad and Al Nassr, so the opportunity for Al Nassr has not completely disappeared, it's just that his fate now depends on the results from Ittihad FC which is very unpleasant for Al Nassr, especially Al Nassr must win all the remaining matches so that they can become a champion with a record that their competitors have lost at least 2 or even more and this is what seems a little impossible to happen because the Saudi Pro League is not like other leagues where every club has the opportunity or ability to beat each other, strong teams like Ittihad and Al Nassr will have a bigger chance to win when facing a weak team in the remaining matches.

Ittihad will get the toughest resistance when facing Al Hilal and this is the only match in my opinion where they might lose points, especially the match held at Al Hilal's place, but because this will be a match in week 28, the results will be matched in the previous weeks will be very influential because it is possible that Al Nassr will suffer defeat or drawa so that when the match against Al Hilal, Ittihad FC is in a safer position so it will not play under pressure to win.

It would probably be more correct to say that the team needs changes and it would be better to let Ronaldo go somewhere or rent him out. Lately, when he comes to any team scandals begin at once. Apparently his big ego is bigger than his talent and skill. Leaving Manchester accompanied the scandal, but at this club and opened him as a real player and even in a solid age for a footballer taken to the team, but in the end got scandals and not a very bright game.

When he joined Al Nassr everyone said he would score almost 15 goals a game and that this league was "weak" for Ronaldo, but in the end it seems he was dragging Al Nassr down.

Considering how much Al Nassr paid for Ronaldo it's the worst transfer of the year.

Al-Ittihad is at the first position. The difference in point between the first and second position is 6 points whereas the difference in points between the second, third and fourth position were very close. There is more chances of position switching between the 2^nd 3^rd and 4^th position. Al-Nassr was expected much to reach the first position based on the presence of Ronaldo, but things didn't worked. On the other side other teams are progressing well.

Hmm.. again the same argument and I don't agree with that. You are assuming that Ronaldo's playing skills have degraded over the years because of ageing. I don't think that it has happened yet. I watched the highlights of some of the recent matches involving Al Nassr, and I was surprised with his flexibility and alertness. At no point of time I could notice any impact of age. I know that Ronaldo is someone who can singlehandedly win matches for his team. But then, he is a human after-all. Without support from other players, he may be limited in his capability.

Al-Ittehad is at the top of the points table in Round 24 in the Saudi Professional League. Currently they are in first position and ahead in terms of points with a total of 59 points. Al-Nasser are in the second position and although they have performed very well, they have not been able to overtake Al Ittehad. However, Al Sabab were in good form in the last match even though they stayed at the top of the points table with 50 points in third place. Al-Ittehad vs Al-Shabab In this game, Al-Shabab had plenty of chances to win but attacked and failed to score any goals. Al-Sabab had a huge chance after Al-Ittehad's player was sent off after receiving a red card but failed to capitalize on that opportunity in the end.

Al Ittihad scored a goal early in the match but did not get another chance before half time. Al Sahbab made a call your next time but their defenders were too strong. And despite a massive attack, neither team managed to score a full game. However, the number of fouls in yesterday's game was the highest among the two teams, and Zakaria, a player of Al Ittihad, went into extra time and received a red card. There was a lot of fear for the visitors at the midway point but the game went into a long extra 17 minutes and Al Ittihad managed to score a late goal to level the match at 2-1. Abderrrazak is the Ittihad all-rounder who managed to score two goals in this match.

I feel like the team needs a big change after getting Ronaldo. It just doesn't work with this tactic. Lets be honest and say that it is not going to be the same as it is today, because Ronaldo is not as good as he used to be, that much is true, Ronaldo 10 years ago would have destroyed every team here.

However, the issue is not just the same thing, there is a huge difference and that is why I feel like there is a good amount of luck that goes along with it as well. This means that if the team is not good enough, even Ronaldo at his best may not be good. Imagine the goals they got scored on, how could that even be Ronaldos fault? He is a striker, that's mostly goalkeeper , defender and even maybe a bit midfield but not Ronaldo. We need to see that.

Most of the peoples are not familiar with this league before Ronaldo entry and now suddenly we all are having enough sources and updates because we have Ronaldo here from England few weeks back which is main point even most chances now Al Nassr is not going to win title this year but still they will be having change in next season because Ronaldo joined this club after many matches and things were not ideal for him and his teammates as they were no familiar which other and quality is also the biggest problem which can't changed in just few weeks this need long time so right now Al Nassr is still doing good and have good chance for staying at the second spot which could be also good, but they need to work on for better results in next season if we have complications then surely things could be gone from bad to worse for the all parties hopefully we will have few more players in coming season here in this league which will increase quality and performance of many clubs as well.

 Here I agreed if we have Aboubakar with Talisca then surely things could be more interesting, and we can expect better results as well because they were doing good job but right now situation is having big change and many players are unable to handle this all quickly.

To be sure, we are not very familiar with this competition. So, our knowledge and insight is very limited. but what is certain, the mistake made by Al Nassr's management was to fire the coach at the end of this season. yes, Al Nassr has made blunders since the dismissal of Rudi Garcia after his team was held to a draw by Al Fayha with a score of 0-0. after that, Al Nassr suffered two defeats in two different competitions.

If he loses to Al Hilal, it is still understandable, because these two teams have rivalries that have become sworn enemies. besides that, Al Hilal's dominance over Al Nassr is still very difficult to break. well, the defeat of Al Nassr from Al Wehda was very embarrassing. apart from collapsing at home, Al Wehda is a team that can be said to be not a strong and tough team. even in the League, Al Wehda is ranked 13th. unfortunately, Ronaldo and his colleagues were unable to overthrow their opponents even though they actually had many opportunities, I think a change of coach could be one of the reasons.

Next, in the next two days Al Nassr will play against Al Raed. let's see, how Ronaldo and his colleagues went through the fight against Al Raed. speaking on paper, Al Nassr should be able to overthrow the opposing team easily. but we'll see, whether they can bounce back or slip further.

Well, not only in that, but for Al Nassr it is so Relevant that it made this Saudi fútbol  that was not given so much Iimportance go by word of mouth and with many more fans there, thanks to CR7 because the League is more Relevant and As I have said in other comments,he is a very big reference because thanks to him he is in great demand now, I think there are many Famous gamers who are Receiving very good job offers and who are very important,because now they are multimillion-dollar Opportunity contracts for a player,such is the case of Messi.


Sometimes the adrenaline makes us get carried away by emotions, in a fútbol game there will always be people who are lost in the game and sometimes make more mistakes than normal, and a good player sees it, that's why he does the claims, it is normal, I think that at some point we have all played fútbol.

A team doesn't have to keep winning, and the fact that they lost all this matches does not necessarily mean that there's something wrong the team, the loss simply means that the other team played better and used their opportunities well.

And Ronaldo arguing with his team mates, thats like medicine after death, what does he hope to achieve by doing that?, he should be encouraging them with words like "we will do better next time" rather than arguing and maybe aportionning  blames, this will only divide the team more rather than bring them together as one.

His teammates treating Ronaldo like a king where they will babysit him and let him touch the ball before it enter opponent's goal post, this will make Ronaldo become the goal scorer

Too bad for Aboubakar to leave Al Nassr, I'm sure Talisca with Aboubakar will show better result than Talisca with Ronaldo. If Al Nassr can't become a champion in this season, we all know where the problem is

I would say Al Nassr was fucked up in that match, they have 2 big chances missed and it could score a goal. The odds must be very high since Al Nassr lost against a team which almost entering delegation zone.

I don't know what is going on with Al Nassr. After losing the SPL match against their arch-rivals Al Hilal, they again lost to Al Wehda in Kings Cup. Al Nassr has been knocked out of Kings Cup with this defeat. Cristiano Ronaldo was clearly not happy and he was arguing with his team-mates after the loss. I don't know whether such behavior will benefit anyone (they lost the match despite the fact that Al Wehda was playing with 10 people, as Abdullah Al-Hafith got the red card in 53rd minute). Now their next match is against Al Raed on 29th April. 

Quality is the biggest difference with this all most chances we will have no best from Ronaldo here in Saudi League even he has done good job in short time but still he has no things like he has done in UEFA for years currently Saudi League is working heavily on few things but still it's never been easy to develop things quickly even after spending millions of USD right now as Saudi Authorities are working for their next vision of sports we can expect better things but conditions and domestic realities are also having many issues regarding this all.

Ronaldo is here just because of no quality club in UEFA is ready to spend huge funds for him specially after his conflict at Manchester United things are going from bad to worse for him with his salary demand is also not acceptable for many clubs so most chances he will stay here and try his best for having better ending of his career.

What happened to Ronaldo at Al Nassr especially after they lost to a team that wasn't even considered capable of beating them proves that no player is bigger than any other player in a team or he is bigger than the club itself it's proven that his presence isn't even enough able to lift his team better this season, it is even very possible that this season his club will be without a title after being eliminated in this tournament and now behind Ittihad. Maybe he should have started to accept that his age is no longer conducive to appearing superior like in previous years after all whether there are players who will always be on top, but it seems that he, like his devotees, thinks he will always be on top

Ittihad will not let their chance to add 3 points go to waste, especially when the team that will be their opponent finds it difficult to win against them, so Ittihad is better than their opponent later. Ittihad is not like Al Hilal who dominates the league title so when the opportunity to win the league this season is wide open then maximizing it is the right thing. Ittihad is the favorite in this match because they will be the home team and their positive performance has made many observers believe they will win this match and are increasingly safe at the top position leaving Al Nassr who seems to be struggling with defeat

The problem is not that he is a human, the problem is that he himself behaves as if he was not a human. He can't stop saying and claiming what an extraordinary dude he is and how he is better than anyone else. If that is the case, why didn't he stay in Europe and sign a contract with a huge club and win the Champions League again? Because nobody wanted him in the end, not any big club wanted him and all that Ronaldo is about is money. That is why he ended up in Saudi Arabia.

When it is said here that they can't focus everything on Ronaldo and should spread the work evenly among the team, it is Ronaldo who claims to be the machine, who claims to better than any other human being in soccer. I don't know why anyone would protect him. He has drawn the picture about himself that people now have in their heads. Messi never said he is better than Ronaldo, but Ronaldo always said nobody is better than him. That is why they scream "Messi, Messi" when he fucks up again. When Messi goes to Saudi Arabia and loses a game, I doubt that anyone would be screaming "Ronaldo, Ronaldo".

Everyone has to accept that the football clubs of Saudi Arabia were not known that way for a while. When Ronaldo joined Saudi club Al Nasser, their social media became popular in no time. And Saudi clubs spread across the world. Ronaldo is the biggest icon for this. Ronaldo became the second highest goalscorer at the Saudi club in a short period of time. Many have started criticizing his performance. But the current time is going a little bad for Ronaldo, maybe this bad performance won't last long. In fact, he is not getting any like minded partner to lead him. But if we can make some players like him, it is expected that the matches will perform well in the future.

OK, so let's divert our discussion to the Al Ittihad vs Al Shabab match which will be held in the next two days.

Well, this match is crucial for both teams. What is certain, these two teams both want full points. and if we refer to the first meeting of these two teams, the match ended in a draw with a score of 1-1. and if I refer to the statistics of the match, Al Shabab was able to control the game. in fact, they have many opportunities. so, that means, Al Shabab can be able to provide fierce resistance when carrying out their matches at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium, Al Ittihad headquarters. it's just that, I don't have the latest information regarding the line-up or the system that this team will use.

On the other hand, this fight should be an advantage for the home team. apart from playing at their own base, Al Ittihad has dominated more based on the history of the H2H meetings of these two teams. this match is important for them, as well as widening the points gap from Al Nassr and still ensuring they are on the winning path in the league competition. unfortunately, the defeat to Al Hilal in the King's Cup could have had a negative effect on their form in the league. especially if their opponent is not an easy team to beat. well, this is just my assumption for now. if, Al Ittihad used a formation like during the match against Al Hilal with a 4-4-1-1 formation. that means, Al Shabab will be more dominant in mastering ball possession, but if you use 4-2-3-1. then the course of the match will be very interesting and competitive. and which team won this match, let's just wait. but I suspect, Al Shabab is able to subvert the home team.
