Liverpool superstars Steven Gerrard and Jordan Henderson are upset as they experience a new low in SaudiSteven Gerrard and Jordan Henderson, two stars for Liverpool, are furious after falling to a new low in Saudi Arabia.Under 700 spectators watched Al-Ettifaq’s 1-0 loss to Al-Riyadh over the weekend in their Saudi Pro League match, which was captained by Steven Gerrard and included Jordan Henderson.This poor attendance raises questions for a match of this caliber, even though it is hardly shocking for Al-Riyadh.
Jordan Henderson, who is used to playing in front of 50,000 fans at Anfield, will face a special task there.
These Saudi Pro League numbers are dwarfed by even the smallest Premier League crowd he saw at away games, Bournemouth’s 10,536.Not only Gerrard’s team but others are having trouble adjusting. Even experienced Premier League players like Demarai Gray and Georginio Wijnaldum are still getting used to this strange environment.
International athletes like Jack Hendry and Robin Quaison are also on the team. Another seasoned forward, Moussa Dembele, sat out the weekend.
Foreign player limitations and financial requirements present obstacles for Jesse Lingard’s probable entrance.Steven Gerrard has had highs and lows as a manager since moving on from Rangers to Aston Villa in November 2021.
He achieved success at Rangers, winning 125 games in 193 contests and the Scottish Premiership title.
His time at Aston Villa, however, was characterized by fan unrest, which culminated in his firing following a 3-0 defeat to Fulham.
