ahhhhhhh ya Mohammed Noor ...Abu nooran ...The tiger of tigers ...The Awacs ...The king ...The beating heart of Ittihad No title is big enough for you, arguably one of the most talented players ever to grace Saudi football, and undoubtedly the most fought. They are fighting you all the way, in every way, trying their hardest to destroy you. They tried to blame you for the injury to their favourite player, they then tried to make you out as some violent madman, they then scapegoated you for the Gulf cup failure, they tried to strip you of your citizenship, they suspend you for no reason, and yet you're still here standing strong. What are you doing to them? Yesterday, we had a comical episode of their crusade against Noor. That's right, it's the barber shop routine. Salon Khaleej was open for business. Forget the Barber of Seville, we had the barber of Seihat! Noor was ordered to cut his hair because it was "religiously offensive". I kid you not. Even worse, it's not the first time they do it. But however hard they tried to antagonise or distract him, he answered them on the pitch, with another commanding performance. Khaleej, while in the relegation zone, are no mugs, they've never been thrashed like that all season. Noor saw to that, along with his chief leutenant Marzouq al-Otaibi, and others. I swear, if Noor was from another country, they would've encouraged him and nurtured him. He'd probably be plying his trade in the top leagues of Europe. But it's our luck that we have a racist and myopic FA and media that don't see beyond their favourite blue club. Khaleej 2-8 Ittihad 3' 0-1 Noor 5' 1-1 Monda 12' 1-2 Kariri 20' 1-3 Keita 29' 1-4 Keita 35' 2-4 Junior (pen) 39' 2-5 al-Otaibi 53' 2-6 Wagner 83' 2-7 Keita 91' 2-8 Abushgeir
Nice, rock on Noor!! And even if Noor would try to go play abroad, the Saudi FA would do what the UAE FA did when a few players tried to play abroad last year.
Nour is a perfect midfielder, great physical power, talented skills, and awesome passes. We were tortured in the Gulf Cup without him, without any strong physical attacking midfielder, we were lost. Shalhoub is too short and small, and Abdoh isn't that tough and is somewhat unexperienced. Happy that he has come back powerfully, 6 months not playing except 3 games with weeks between them. But I think you were too harsh on the FA. Can't wait for the Asian Cup, gonna be a tough team with Yaser, Malek, Nour, Abdoh, Aziz, Ghamdi, Hawsawi, Montashri, Hussien, Mouath, and Khojah.
Nah, I think he wouldn't go because of his club. He got an offer from Qatar Club in the beginning of the season but didn't go.
You're right we should have. The team we sent should have had no problem winning. Really only Iraq and Oman were any good, the rest of the teams were easily beatable.
