Man...I honestly think that a lot of European players are hearing the stories from the guys coming back from Saudi.

You cant fault the money. But the difference is, in Europe you are an asset paid to do a job within the structure of an organization. In Saudi? They OWN YOU.

Its all well and good when everything is all well and good, dip in form? Want to go for a beer? Whatever. But you might yourself as a corpse in a dumpster in some alley in Riyadh.

You are literally a ball-kicking piece of meat.
