He said: “Gerard has a lot of credit for the team and contributed to solving big problems in the team, but there are some names within the management of Al-Ettifaq who believe that he does not have the qualities of a successful coach English at this point. “
Al-Saqri continued: “I have specific information that the Al-Ittifaq administration cannot sack Gerrard,” indicating pressure to keep the England coach.
He concluded: Al-Ettifaq has good technical elements, but cannot achieve competition due to the strong competition from the big Saudi teams.
Steven Gerrard had expressed his disappointment after Al-Ettifaq’s balance froze at 10 points in sixth place, 5 points behind leaders Al-Hilal.
The English coach said: “I am responsible for the loss, and I cannot blame any player or situation, it would be easy to do that, but I see that I am responsible for the this result… and this is the second game we lose at our home stadium.”
