Steven Gerrard is facing scathing criticism from supporters as the former Rangers boss fights to save his job at Al-Ettifaq, according to Football Scotland.
Jack Herrall’s report [3 November] details how a run of measly results has led Gerrard to incur jeers from his own fanbase, with the club placed 11th in the 18-team Saudi Pro League.The club have scored just eight goals in nine games so far this season, and have fallen 14 points behind leaders Al-Hilal as the Gers title winner now faces an uphill battle for his long-term future.
Gerrard has previously been mentioned as a possible replacement for Philippe Clement at Ibrox, with Hugh Keevins writing on 29 September that his name keeps cropping up in discussions if the Belgian were to be replaced (Sunday Mail).From a Rangers perspective, the club are a far cry from the distant memories of what Gerrard brought to Ibrox in 2021.
