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.

Aye this definitely is more damning of Ligue 1 than anything

[–] Sob_me_a_lake@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Just how shit is league 1?!

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

It would definitely do damage in Argentina

So if they had better players and coaches they would be a better team? mind blowing stuff.

You must feel privileged interacting with Michael Owen

Tbh I didn’t say “better” but “right” specially as in the right players for European football.

[–] CulturalDude@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Right players for a squad literally means they make the squad better so in your own context better and right is the same thing

[–] demoncyborgg@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nah he is too nice to do that

[–] philster666@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I can’t construe this any other way

It feels like someone being paid to talk up his league
