Liverpool legend Gerrard said at the final whistle: "I have spoken to the players.

"If we had performed like this before, we would not have put ourselves in this embarrassing situation, but I bear the responsibility."

Al Ettifaq sit in 11th place on the SPL table after nine games, as they have not won in the league in the last six attempts.
