    I think Ronaldo’s the only European player in Saudi Arabia who’s taking the job seriously. Man does not see it as a retirement league.

      But it is a retirement league? And your rhetoric suggests you understand as much.

      He’s scoring goals, but his accomplishments are on a small scale compared to the other strikers listed.

      But if Saudi league counts for this prize, shouldn’t Jack Johnson from seventh league be in this list as well? He’s a total baller though!

      That’s because he’s hoping to fool everyone into thinking like him.

      Which is crazy if you think about it. The man has seen it all and done it all.

      He has no reason to push himself this hard, he’s 38, doesn’t have to prove anything to anyone.

      I get the love of the game argument, it’s his job and everything but still.

        I think to be at the top of your sport for so long and maintain that level of dedication you have to be a bit nuts. I’ve always been a hater of his attitude on the pitch but I can’t help respect his career and his work ethic, it is absolutely amazing.

      Ronaldo is the type of person that won’t let even his kids win a game vs him, you can say a lot of things about him but that he isn’t competitive it’s not one of them.

      He’s still playing for Portugal. That might help with the motivation…

        It says a lot about cr7 fans that they’d equate raping a woman with kicking a pet. The guy didn’t even play for your club, mate.

    Common guys, as much as I loved Messi V Ronaldo. It’s time to move on. There’s no need to force them into the conversation anymore. It’s the same Saudi league. Let’s just enjoy their last few years and welcome the new blood.

    Three guys playing in farmer’s leagues and the real goal scoring champ CR7, who has the class to play in a herders league.

    CR7 thumping minnows with his national side and playing in a league probably weaker than the English second division makes it really funny him being on that list.

    Its like some professional boxer defeated Jake Paul, KSI and 3 more youtubers 5 times total and bragged about his 5-0 undefeated record.
