- Cristiano Ronaldo has said that the Saudi Pro League is a better standard of football than France's Ligue 1 and that he is still one of the world's best forwards.
Ronaldo was speaking at the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai. "To be honest, I think the Saudi League is not worse than French league," he said. "I think right now we are better."
He said moving to Al-Nassr a year ago had been the right move. "This year I did a fantastic season, I was the best goalscorer. Imagine beating animals, young lions like [Erling] Haaland with the goals. I am proud. I am 39 soon and I am looking good."Subscribe to Guardian Football ► is.gd/GuardianFootball

I scored 150 goals in my junior varsity soccer league and it feels great to beat someome like earling haaland who's a young lion. I'm the best scorer in the world.
Did you do that after winning 5 UCLs, 5 ballon d’ors, 3 PL, 2 la Liga and 3 Serie A titles? The only player to do win top 3 European leagues while also being a golden boot winner. If you did all those things and then scored 150 goals in whichever league at the age 39, then have an opinion.

It's not "arrogance" it's confidence, he's played in the top 3 European leagues and was top scorer and player of the season in all 3☝🏽. Different league same CR7👍🏽
He's a narcissist. He acknowledged in an email exchange what he did in Las Vegas in 2009, he's fallen out with most managers he's worked with (even Sir Alex had to walk a tightrope), it's an open-secret that many of his former teammates loathed him (I know some fanboys will find some interview with an erstwhile teammate who says otherwise, but many Portuguese and Juventus and Madrid players have hinted about his insufferable ego-tantrums), he's gone through multiple partners who've hinted about infidelity...in a sport of overpaid man-children, he's the worst.
@@claudecarlyle9284the lack confidence will never make you succed in life like ronaldo, his mentality is the mentality of a winner and he is not wrong for being like that , he is a inspiration for many players and is the icon of football, if he was a bad person no one would like him at all but millions of people around world love him for what he is

Kay, so why aren't other world class players scoring as many goals in the same league?
🤔
@@muaazseedat7989 because he’s literally the poster boy of Saudi league and he has amazing team mates like mane and others.
Plenty of other big names have gone to Saudi too, so why aren't they outscoring Ronaldo? His move there made tonnes more go as well and has considerably improved the league by bringing in big names. But no matter how many big names to, none have outscored a near 39 year old Ronaldo.
So why isn't Benzema or Neymar outscoring CR7 ? I mean, they play in the same league. Aren't they top tier ?
@@Boborodfulthe poster boy? Why?do they feed him like Messi ?
He's talking a load of rubbish. Even with their current players, it will never happen because of the extreme temperatures.
They typically kick off at temperatures of 36°C plus and the pace is very slow. Many of their matches look like testimonials.
They made a mistake, they should have built the air conditioned stadiums like they have in Qatar before inviting the stars from the European leagues over. I have also noticed an improvement in the domestic Qatar league now they are able to play football in modified air conditioned stadiums.
Also where is the motivation? Do you really think that these players are as motivated playing in the Asian Champions League compared to the UEFA Champions League?
Not sure where did you get the information for the temperatures, according to Google the highest this week in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia will be about 29 that is normal in almost any European countries during the summer and the Saudi league rest during the summer.
@ademosthenes4911 Every occasion I've watched a game, I have looked up the current temperature. As simple as that. Up until mid December the temperatures have always been 30 Centigrade plus. It's very easy to check temperatures with the kick off times.
@ademosthenes4911 Football is not played in Europe during the height of summer.Also in August in Spain games are scheduled later in the day to avoid peak temperatures.
Saudi Arabia is a desert and they have to provide special conditions to enable the grass to grow. They have to use 50 times the amount of water to grow grass compared to the conditions in Germany.
It will be 28°C on Tuesday in Riyadh and January is their coolest month.
I'm not asking nor do i care about what is needed to grow grass in Saudi arabia, I never said that is not hot, but the other person stated typically 36 not 28, plus games are not played at the Hight of the heat during the day so I don't think I need to say anything more, do I?

The thing is that Ronaldo makes the term football famous. Even after not playing in a big league, he still own the football world. Medias are still running behind him. Imagine when he's retire, no one will talk about football like during his days.

Great football player, without a doubt. But he is too obsessed with Messi. His whole argument was about justifying himself of what a player he is.

Let's make all the players of Ligue 1 on the market and all players of Saudi League on the market.
Which League do you think the players will be more expensive?
Bro all the saudi stars are washed up lol.
Ronaldo, the paragon of sporting vanity, lords his self-importance with the audacity of a tempest commandeering the vast, open sea. It engulfs every mortal ship of humility, leaving in its wake a barren expanse terrorized by his brash pronouncements of grandeur unrivaled.
He is a gilded peacock, his radiant plumes unfurling in an ostentatious display of ego, casting an eclipse over the humble songbirds that share his stage. Each vibrant feather is an arrogant declaration, each strut, a testament to his supposed unchallenged supremacy, sweeps away all notions of modesty and shared triumph with a disdainful flicker.
Ronaldo's arrogance is a towering inferno, relentless and salient, consuming the parched forests of modesty with the fury of his self-praised greatness. Amidst the smoky ruins left in its rampage, the tender buds of humbleness find no oasis. Instead, they wither, succumbing to the choking haze of his inflated self-importance.
His ego, weighty and incessant like the Sahara dunes, encroach and devour the lush oases of mutual respect. It paints the verdant elegance of sportsmanship into barren scapes of haughtiness, where only the illusions of unity and camaraderie occasionally shimmer with deceptive luster.
In the cathedral of his ego, Ronaldo thrones himself above all, wreathed in a halo of conceit. There, the echoes of his self-declared sanctuary turn the hallowed hymns of shared glory into discordant strains of I, me, and myself.
His arrogance, a monstrous Everest, crowned by the regal clouds of self-worship, casts prodigious shadows upon the green valleys of teamwork. It's an Everest mightier than the rest, demanding attention, seeking devotion, its icy gusts freezing the tender roots of shared success and fair play.
When one utters 'the best', it should be a serenade composed in honor of countless heroes whose sweat, passion, and unyielding spirits have carved an enduring legacy. Yet, Ronaldo’s solo performance rattles this harmonious symphony, transforming it into a harsh soliloquy, a narcissistic aria bellowed from the summit of his self-built pedestal. His words, dripping with hubris, tarnish the golden canvas of history, casting long shadows over the tales of many greats who have danced the dance of champions.
Ligue 1 is a one horse league with only psg having some heavyweights. Rest are just average teams not better than any Saudi teams.
I really hope this guy only says this because he is getting paid
Catty
