Oscar 2.0
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You can't blame Oscar. He's earned about £80m playing at a level far below his own, with little pressure, getting paid more than anyone else was going to offer.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Threw away a career for money. Fair play I'm not saying I wouldn't do the same. But he was finished by 27 or so
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Finished and yet earned more than £80m. He has said that his family are more important than his career

Some players will want a quick cash grab but Saudi will never ever be the place players dream of playing and winning major honours as many countries have tried to be that new hub for top players (USA over the years, China, Qatar etc) but you just can’t buy tradition.

Players want to play in front of full stadiums of frenzied fans and in games that actually matter and win the champions league etc. The Saudi league is so beige it’s inconsequential for 99.9999% of footballers at their peak.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
True. But think about how many players aren't competing for trophies. Even Liverpool have only ever won the league once. Spurs haven't won a trophy in a lifetime. The vast, vast majority of players are not competing for trophies.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeh I suspect that there are a lot more players who aren't driven by trophies than we actually realise.

Ruben Neves so good he played for Wolves for 6 seasons.

Never been quite good enough for a big move. He's going to make mega money, Wolves will do well out of it and Saudi Arabia can be like look we signed a guy in his prime.

Aye from Wolves, it's hardly earth shattering.

Exactly, unlike those Prem players who move to once more taste playing in an authentic league rather than for tourists.
