Good to see Saleh Al-Shehri to be fit, recovered from injury and having playing time in Hilal vs Shabab game
Probably Saleh & other players will be in the camp but not in the match-day squad or might get few minutes.
In. Otayf as well. Wow Radif. Do you see potential in him? Well, I see the first friendly games are this month. Interesting to find out what kind of squads will both Albania and NM will play. Probably local ones.
Abdullah Radif is young and tall so can be utilized for his tallness in the pitch. But since he carries Hilal tag so he can get selected naturally
Saudi Arabia won the friendly match played against North Macedonia 1-0 today in Abu Dhabi. Does anyone have link to watch highlights of the game as nothing appearing on youtube?
To be honest, I am not considering the match of Saudi Arabia against Argentina for Saudia to get even a draw since loss of Saudi Arabia against Argentina is on the cards and its only a matter of goal i.e., how much goals will Argentina score against Saudi Arabia. However, I am considering the match against Mexico and Poland to be competitive and expecting Saudi Arabia to have some positive outcomes in these 2 game. Match against Argentina is no match as Argentina is the power house of world football and saudi players will be phycologically down so would be on the losing end. Sorry, if above comments are against your opinion, but that's what the reality is as of now

Good thing he got out.. The guy has not delivered since ages now plus we cant afford more embarresment if caught doping again in WC.
My XI : Owais Sultan Ghanam, Hassan Tumbakti, Amri, Yasser Shahrani Malki-Kanoo Salem-Faraj- Hattan Sehri
The reason behind it? Injury?Well, he's like a mad dog at times. A teams needs someone like him sometimes. Also, Saudi are not great in the final third. He failed to deliver, but still not a bad player
the last time he delivered was when Saudi Arabia beat Japan in final & crucial FIFA World Cup 2018 qualifier in Jeddah. After that, he became a liability. But still, what did he do that he got delisted? Also, Salman Al Faraj is injured and it won't be good if he comes and plays against Argentina directly (without playing any game before Argentina match) so Nawaf Al Abed can fill his place very well
My World Cup group stage predictions are out. Feel free to check them out and learn where I see Saudi Arabia finishing. Good luck to Saudi Arabia. Post #2626 https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/m...redictions-what-do-you-think.2120305/page-106
