I Won't Resign As Al Ettifaq Manager --Gerrard

Al Ettifaq coach Steven Gerrard has vowed that he won’t resign from his job despite losing to Al Hilal in Saudi Pro League game.

Recall that the England tactician was due to enter talks with the Al Ettifaq board today to discuss their poor season so far.

Speaking with the club’s website, Gerrard stated that he has the backing of the board and the players.

“I spoke to the players. If we hadn’t given up like this before, we wouldn’t be in this situation. But the responsibility is mine.

“Seeing the recent results from my position, I worry about the hobby. I carry that responsibility on my shoulders. It is what I will do and continue fighting and working to improve.

“I don’t change or worry about what they say on social networks or people from outside the club. My priority is the club. I listen to the people who are with me, and I continue to support my players.”
