Checked off the part of his contract to say something nice about the Saudi Pro League ✅
How could he know? Last time he played in Ligue 1 was almost 10 years ago.
Anyway I don’t wanna any player who play in this league in our NT. He is 32 years old it’s time to move on.
I think at least give him till the euros before giving him the shove. Similar to Henderson, playing in Saudi league is a massive downgrade but their skills don’t dissappear overnight. It’s not like they are 38 or something. Perhaps someone in the locker room with veteran presence coming off the bench.

One of the best midfielders of his generation probably knows a thing or two about football you’d think especially having played in the league.

Surely, Deschamps is taking notes.
I mean i can see matches between top 3 teams being at uber eats mid table level.
This feels like a dig at Lugue 1
It might feel like, but that’s not his intention, quite the opposite. He (or at least his entourage) are campaigning for his return to the NT (good luck with that!) and their argument is that the Saudi League is a high level league, so N’Golo still has the goods to play with Les Bleus.
Tbh he said the top 5 matches which I don’t find to be too out of pocket overall. The Al Hilal squad would do damage in Europe if they had the right coaching and right complementary players
So if they had better players and coaches they would be a better team? mind blowing stuff.
Tbh I didn’t say “better” but “right” specially as in the right players for European football.
This marketing campaign through the players is the most telegraphed and obvious thing of all time. Go on then Koulibaly, you’re up next week - say the atmosphere is equal to European Top 5 leagues.
