Al-Ettifaq started the season impressively with three consecutive wins, but recent results have taken a downturn, putting pressure on head coach Steven Gerrard.
Details: According to the Daily Mail, the situation worsened after a shocking loss in the Saudi King's Cup, where Al-Ettifaq fell 1-3 to a second-division team.
Moreover, Gerrard's team has not won in their last five Pro League matches, slipping down to tenth place in the standings.
Gerrard's tactics have puzzled fans, with some fearing that the Englishman might drag Al-Ettifaq further down if he remains in charge.
Reminder: Al-Nassr suffered a surprise exit from the King's Cup, losing to Al-Taawoun in the round of 16. Cristiano Ronaldo missed a penalty in the 96th minute, shooting over the crossbar.
