    Well, Saudi league is better than J League in the AFC Ranking, and the J League is very good at developing young talents, so the Saudi league must have at least some quality in it. Saudi players don’t go abroad, so people often discredit their league in the past

      Really ? Because I’ve heard good things about the J League in terms of technicality. I’ve watched a handful of Saudi games this season and I can tell you the overall level is really really bad, especially tactically

          But Saudi teams made the final five times during that time frame. And semi final 6 times.

          Those coefficients are the worst way to judge a league honestly. If you trust them, you would think the eridivise is as good as Ligue 1, but it’s absolutely not. The level of the best teams is comparable, the rest of them absolutely aren’t.

          But to be fair, Lante talks about the best team and not the overall level of the league.
