Even before that, not many clubs really wanted him after his interview with Piers Morgan, he kind of ended his own career after making a very controversial statement. attacking his own club, which in the end Ronaldo closed the possibility of playing in the top European league clubs. even though Mendes has worked hard to offer it to almost many clubs, he is even willing to cut his salary by 30%. even so, none of the clubs really want him, all the news related is just rumours.


Actually many clubs didn't want him because if his outrageous salary and general contributions ti the team. He is getting older and can't be that old Ronaldo that destroy any team that he comes in contact with. Clubs couldn't afford Ronaldo that's why he want to a club that can afford him
 Saudi Arabic spoke with Ronaldo and told him there version for football over there and Ronaldo buys into their ideal so he joined and off course they offerred him a contract he couldn't reject. There are even rumors of Messi wanting to kove the Saudi Arabia league of only they'll double the contract (amount) given to Ronaldo.

Anybody that watches Ronaldo play can testify of his greatness. Even while he's on international duties he's still scoring goals at the age. Portugal games against Liechtenstein saw Ronaldo netting twice and even scored a free kick. Whenever Ronaldo is on form, that forms continues in whatever tournament he participate in. Al Nassr has given back Ronaldo form because he's happy at the club and not the bondage he was in at Manchester united. This players are humans too so we should expect human behavior from them at times and not every time looking for professional behaviors.

That's right, anything can happen because the difference of one point is also not too far, there is still a chance for Al Nassr. It's just that Al-Nassr chances depend on other teams I mean Al Hilal, in May Ittihad will play against Al Hilal and statistically Ittihad often has difficulty against them, there is a possibility for Al Hilal will win three points at there.
It is clear that such a small distance in points can definitely be caught up by Al-Nassr and regarding Al-Ittihad's match against Al-Hilal in May, this will be an opportunity for Al-Nassr to surpass on points because Al-Ittihad could slip against Al-Hilal later, but talking about the match is still very long and before the match was held I think Al-Nassr has been able to shift the position of Al-Ittihad.

I was thinking the same way until I learned that Ronaldo was brought to assist the team and not to do the overall work.
I'm seeing that the expectations is too much on Ronaldo's side and it's not too good. But What people will say isn't a problem, cuz it will have nothing to do with Ronaldo's relationship with the club as people already know his capability.
Ronaldo is only one player in a team with 11 players in each squad and he only contributes the best he can. However, it does not mean he is able to bring his club to success. Sometimes he can but we can not request him to do this every match.

Ronaldo did make some changes in Al-Nassr and for Saudi Professional League in general. He helped the club and the league become more famous globally especially in European countries. With his appearance in the league, many television companies decided to buy television rights of Saudi Professional League and broadcast league matches.

In Al-Nassr, Ronaldo did boost his team-mates to play with more seriously winning desire.

Quote
In PSG,  Neyma,  Messi and mbappe were brought for the same purpose ( trophy win) but if things doesn't turn out that way it still never mean they have failed.
PSG have more star players than Al-Nassr and they must play well even they don't have those trio super star players. I don't think a club with many star players like PSG can not win their matches if they don't have those three super stars in a match.

Al-Nassr lost 1-0 against Al-Ittihad. In this match, none of his teammates including Ronaldo could shine. Al-Ittihad kept the ball in their possession throughout the match. Not just the ball but they were short on target. However, we have not seen such an attack from Ronaldo in this match as Ronaldo attacks on other days. Basically, everyone failed to pass the ball to Ronaldo from the midfield, that's why Ronaldo couldn't score any goals in the last match. But good luck to Al-Nassr and hope they do well in the upcoming matches.  And congratulations Al-Ittihad For such a nice win against Al-Nassr.

Well, not all fútbol matches can be Won, it would be the perfect streak and such a thing does not exist, as far as I am concerned with CR7 , obviously when he names MESSI it is something that grates on his brain , because it has always been compared to him, but Messi already took advantage of him , he has a World Cup ,CR7 not , apart from being chanted at the stadium is something that can cause him a lot of stress.

CR7 is a guy who likes to score goals every time he comes in , because that's his job , but sometimes things don't work out and everything accumulates and things get out of hand , I think CR7's reaction to what he did it is normal , he is human , they give him feelings of rage ,of despair and that must be removed.

al hilal will definitely be ranked 3rd until the end of the season, because as we can see, they have only had 19 matches while the other teams have had 21 matches, regarding the competition between al nassr and al ittihad at the top of the standings, I doubt al nassr will be lucky to be able to shift al ittihad because so far they are very good and stable, al ittihad is a tough team.

What you say is probably true because Ittihad played consistently so far only lost once and their goal productivity is also high
But because the difference in points between the two teams is one point then anything can happen at the end of the season
Ittihad and Al Nasr can depend on luck who knows in the remaining matches they get a draw or lose.

Saudi fútbol is very different, I have tried to see some coincidences with South American fútbol, European fútbol and there are many things that are different, for example, yes, Al Hilal can easily take 3rd place but in this football I see things very volatile, that is, anything can happen, it reminds me of the 2nd Bundesliga when the season is ending.

Rangers flop in stunning Cristiano Ronaldo Al Nassr transfer link



Quote
Former Rangers flop Carlos Pena could be set for a sensational link up with Cristiano Ronaldo at Al Nassr, according to reports.

The ex-Ibrox striker is currently plying his trade with Al Dhaid in the United Arab Emirates after joining the club in January.

Mundo Deportivo now reports that Pena could be on his way to the Saudi Arabian League with Al Nassr, which would see him line up alongside the legendary CR7 who moved to the club after exiting Manchester United.

Pena's agent Morris Pagniello told Tiro Libre: "We have other plans for him in the first division of Saudi Arabia, if he continues to concentrate and train he will not return to Mexico for many years."

By the looks of it, Ronaldo could get upset here as well, which I wouldn't really blame all on him considering the type of players he plays with, but the fact that he got here when they were leading the league and they may lose the league after he got here will definitely cause a lot of mockery.

That doesn't mean that he was the reason for it, but it will not stop people from mocking him of course, just the situation itself is sort of funny already and that is why I would guess that there will be a ton of memes and videos mocking him in the end this season if they can't win the title. They still have the chance, but they just need to fight much harder.
I believe this is the ""price a player will pay"".
For example, like me, many people around the world imagined that Cristiano Ronaldo would work "miracles" during the championship or that Al-Nassr would be an indestructible team. But that didn't happen, only 1 single player can't carry the team on his back, it RARELY happens

Look at the team of Brazil, Portugal or Argentina as an example (not in the 2022 cup), but all teams had the best players in the world and look back at the 2014 world cup, Germany beat Brazil and won the cup 2014, and your players? Some players from Germany were exceptional, but they had a team that fit together, had chemistry and were an excellent team.

I believe that what I said above can apply to Al-Nassr's team, not that this will happen in the Saudi championship, but I wanted to share it to say that no player can do miracles.

But do you really think winning the Saudi Professional League would make much of a difference as to how the public perceives him? It didn't start in the SPL. He has always been the guy who behaved quite controversially. I think that a lot of people, even his own fans, would have preferred to see him trying to fight back in one the European top leagues. But in the end it was all about the salary. He could have chosen a club that is a little bit below the maybe best five or six clubs, cut a bit of his salary and then try it again in the Champions League.
I wouldn't even say he is a bad player now. He would just have to adapt to new circumstances, to a different fitness level and to the fact that there are 11 guys on the pitch and not just him. This attitude he can keep up only in some inferior league.

But he finally let someone else take a penalty as I am sure he is noticing public discussions about him.

The fact is, currently, Ronaldo is playing in the Saudi Pro League as a striker from the Al Nassr club.

Even before that, not many clubs really wanted him after his interview with Piers Morgan, he kind of ended his own career after making a very controversial statement. attacking his own club, which in the end Ronaldo closed the possibility of playing in the top European league clubs. even though Mendes has worked hard to offer it to almost many clubs, he is even willing to cut his salary by 30%. even so, none of the clubs really want him, all the news related is just rumours.

which in the end, Ronaldo accepted Al Nassr's offer. instead, he gets a very fantastic salary. then, with what Ronaldo paid if not with achievements and brought Al Nassr to win a trophy. whatever criticism and ridicule came his way, he had to ignore it. his job is to play football and bring out all the remnants of his best abilities that he has, therefore he gets a large salary reward.

In yesterday's match, Al-Hilal as the host managed to win over his opponent Al-Ettifaq with a score of 3-0. Each goal was scored by Ighalo, Kanno and Al Dawsari and with this result Al-Hilal's position remains safe in the top 4 of the standings. In the next game, Al-Hilal will face al-Khaleej and they must again secure 3 points to shorten the distance from Al-Shabab, which is currently in 3rd place in the standings.

2 matches of Al Hilal are currently unplayed.  Other teams played 21 matches but Al Hilal played 19 matches.  If they get 2 wins in these matches, they can move up to the third place in the ranking.  On the other hand, I think Al Nassr and Ittihad will fight for the leadership until the last week.

Ronaldo effect has changed everything about the club, their confidence and moral in every game.
I agree about this, Ronaldo really brings a big impact. Al Nassr becomes more popular instantly and many people begin to know their players. But I assume Ronaldo still can't improve the chance for Al Nassr to win Saudi Pro League title/trophy.

I believe they will win the league title if they keep playing with determination and confidence. I know Captain Ronaldo is a man that doesn't like losing matches none love been defeated. Al-Nassr will lead the league again, after the International break.
There are still some tough matches for Al Nassr and the remaining matches are only 9 remaining matches. I'm not sure about the chance of Al Nassr winning the league title. Although they keep winning all the remaining matches, they are still unable to win it if Al Ittihad also wins all the remaining matches. TBH, the defeat from Al Ittihad on matchday 20 is a very big loss. Al Nassr needs a miracle to lead the league again.
I somewhat agree with you, there is little doubt that Al Nassr will win the league trophy this season because one point difference is indeed a little but if Ittihad can maintain well all the remaining matches where only 9 matches remain then it becomes useless what is achieved by Al Nassr.
Al Nassr must really want to get the championship trophy this season because the last time they won was the 2018-2019 season then Al Hilal who became the champion in a row because it was noted that they were quite dominating in the Saudi Pro League.
The most obvious thing that Ronaldo has given is that the Arab League broadcasting has become quite widespread, although maybe only when his club is playing to be the most anticipated especially for viewers outside Arabia.

A great plaque went to play tonight with Cristiano Ronaldo in front. Ronaldo also holds the record for playing the most single matches in this match. But that is not enough why stop at the name Ronaldo. Ronaldo had a lot to answer for.  Ronaldo gave that answer while playing in the European qualifiers. Ronaldo scored two goals alone in the 4-0 victory. Having scored two goals, he said that even though he is 38 years old, he is not finished yet.
Just read in news Cristiano Ronaldo has broken the record for the highest number of international appearances, by scoring twice on his 197th cap for Portugal in their 4-0 win over Liechtenstein.
Ronaldo is has broken every records in the international game. yesterday night he scored brace with free kick, making it his 60 career free kicks in his highest international appearance game. it was a great time for Rinaldo, he worked so hard for this, i am glad i witness him play. he is so passionate about winning games.

Having said that, Ronaldo's arrival for the amount of money in question raised the expectations, of course Al Nassr is expected to win the Saudi Pro league, and if they don't so many people would turn to Ronaldo and ask what his impact has been in the team. Well there are still many games to play, and i think Al Nassr can do it, i hope they win the league because of Ronaldo.

Nobody will doubt the impact of Ronaldo even if Al Nassr ends up at the second spot in the league. Ronaldo have brought so much publicity and influence to the team. A close analysis of their last game against Abha showed that the game was not an easy one because both teams has almost the same goal on target but Al Nassr controlled the game. The points between the first and second team in the league is just one point, therefore Ronaldo's team still have the opportunity to win the league if they keep winning games as they have done in the last seven games. There still ten games to play, which means anything can still happen. It will be a historical sight to see captain Ronaldo lifting the Saudi Arabia League trophy.

Ronaldo is one of the stars that has become iconic in the world of football, no matter when he was still playing in the European league or his current club. there will always be people, or groups who dislike it and even sneer at it. this is natural, the dislike of other star supporters will tend to ridicule or mock him. whether it's by making mockery memes, shouting Messi's name when Ronaldo is playing against another team. whatever it is, everything will be done by groups or people who don't like it.

There's no doubt about that, Ronaldo has many historical numbers that haven't been broken till now, as he has the highest number of matches played in the European Champions League with 183 matches, and the highest number of goals in this competition with 140 goals. In addition, he is the world's highest scorer in terms of national teams, with 118 goals. These achievements may be broken in the future by Haaland or Mbappe, but Ronaldo will always be remembered as a legend.

So, Ronaldo's current problem does not come from within the team or the opponent. however, pressure comes from outsiders who tend to corner him. but as a big star, it shouldn't be a big problem for him. his current focus is to bring his team to win a competition trophy this season. yes, Ronaldo has to work hard to make it happen and reply to all the negative responses that lead to him with achievements.

Unfortunately, the destiny of Al Nassr in the SPL competition this season is no longer in their hands, and so does Ronald.Even if they win all their remaining matches,they won't win the title as Al Ittihad could win all their matches as well. Al Ittihad are motivated to win the title this season more than any previous title. However, in football, everything is possible as long as there are more matches to play.

That's no news, it was expected as it has played out. Ronaldo's influence is undeniable the biggest in sports in generally and not just football. Just him moving to Al Nassr has given the league the biggest publicity that it can even get. This isn't the first time he's doing this, even when he moved to Juventus, we saw how impactive he was both in the clubs and league in general. That's the exact same thing he's doing to the Saudi professional league. I mean just imagine he's the one taking most of if the discussion on this particular thread about a whole league not even Messi can pour that kind of influence.

The whole squad has been affected by Ronaldo mentality that even when he isn't in games the squad can perform comebacks to win games. I strongly believe Al Nassr can win the trophy and as a Ronaldo fan we all want that to happen even though it will be disregarded as a farmers trophy, it's better he gets laugh at that way then him not winning and still getting mocked as the media usually do. We could see how competitive the Saudi league is getting that every team is trying harder to win games and perform individually since they know the world is watching them play all because of Ronaldo.

True, the experience of a Cristiano Ronaldo in Europe brings mentality to other players. Even though he came here at a young age, experience speaks here. I see that there is something different from Cristiano Ronaldo, I mean he doesn't like playing at Manchester United, this seems to have something to do with the comfort felt by a player so that it affects his enthusiasm for playing.
Ronaldo's statistics are also good, from the 8 matches he has played at Al Nassr he has scored 9 goals and 2 assists.

I second that too, there are quite a lot of Ronaldo haters all over the internet, people waiting for him to fail or be put on the bench so they can make fun of him, i know it is all part of the banter, but sometime last year i began to think if maybe those in higher authorities actually somewhat dislike Ronaldo, not that it matters though, but it feels like Fifa and some of the other governing bodies are Messi fanboys.
