Since signing with Al-Nassr (on January 1, 2023), Cristiano Ronaldo has repeatedly claimed that the Saudi Pro League is better than Ligue 1. Do you agree with him? “I don't think so. Ligue 1 is still a step above. The intensity is always high, unlike here, even if it's not necessarily that far off. When you play against the bottom teams, it's more complicated, and there aren’t many fans in the stands. Having played for Nantes, I know how important supporters are. Here, the enthusiasm is lower because football is less developed than in France. That's one of the negative points. There are certain stadiums where there isn't much of an atmosphere, but when we play against the big teams, the fans are there.”   submitted by   /u/Sparky-moon [link]   [comments]
