Know zero about Al-Ahli, who are they equivalent to in the prem (if a simple comparison is possible)?

 

Not gonna lie I feel all Saudi teams are basically the same soulless entities.

Don’t know who to compare them to but they’re enthusiastic:

Quite a lot of them are a lot older than you think, Al Alhai was formed in 1937, Al Ittihad 1929. There’s been a league there since about 1950 it’s just been that there’s been little interest in it outside country.

I'll chuck some morbid perspective your way. Compare this to when we lost Ben Arfa. Absolutely not bothered by this move in comparrison :lol:

 

Oh my god nah, Football died the day Benny was in the van on the way to Hull and Bruce.

 

But ASM was cut from a similar cloth of lesser quality and his leaving the team robs it of excitement. I know he wasn't the most efficient player, or even the healthiest, but he's the type of player I watch football for.

I can’t get enough of watching our team now. That excites me more than in a long time. New recruits are just gonna raise that. Even my lady who doesn’t like football [emoji38] watches the games with me now, and while I’m at work she’s watching at home. Cannot wait for the coming season. Well excited!   Onwards and upwards HTL :indi:

Maybe it's residual Pardew trauma? All we ever had were mavericks. All we could ever hope for was a bit of magic. Maybe I'm set in my ways because that's the only NUFC I've ever known.

The Keegan era was magical man. Ginola, Beardsley, Lee, Tino, Shearer, Ferdinand. I wish I knew how good we had it back then.

We all thought the good times would last forever and that the club would be competing at the top table for years to come. Little did we know what was around the corner.

PIF should be trying to funnel as much £££ into our club.  Fee should at least be on par with Nevez. £30 mil sounds low.

Probably Man Utd. One of the most supported and successful clubs in the League - historically- but have had a rough time of it lately, getting relegated in the 21-22 season. Pretty sure they’ve won promotion to top league for the next season though. Fierce rivals to my team Al-Ittihad.

Would loved to have seen him challenging for a Serie A title and playing in the CL, if the Napoli interest was indeed solid. Feel a little disappointed Im never going to see him play again. 

He’s only 26, could defo see him back in Europe in the future.

But we don't bring on Ritchie and the like to do that.

 

We're more likely to put Isak out wide, and I genuinely have more faith in him to produce something over Maxi. 

 

 

That’s fair. I’m not even against the transfer, I’m just trying to give maxi his props as he exits.

Such a frustrating player to watch, but also a very luxurious to have in your squad. Looking back at found memories of his spell under Bruce. Unfortunately his time here has been hampered by injuries. When forced to adapt his style under Howe he never looked the same. Good - but never as explosive as under Bruce. Wish him the best, though. He’ll have plenty of €€€ to spend on fines at his new club:iamatwat:
