Steven Gerrard chose to join Al Ettifaq to improve his coaching, says Danny Murphy
"So, maybe that opportunity didn't materialise, maybe they did just throw more money at it. My understanding of Steven generally is that he wants to succeed in everything he does and although we're all tempted by extra dough, he's got plenty of dough."
Host Andy Goldstein said he believes that the money is the 'defining factor' in such a decision and not to benefit his managerial career. But Murphy responded: "No, but what I would say is that if you don't have any other opportunities and you are not working and you're not practising your skill, you're not coaching anybody whether it'd be Liverpool U18s, whether it'd be in Saudi, wherever...
"If you're sat on your backside doing nothing, you're not learning anything, you're not honing your talents."Gerrard's move to Al Ettifaq means he is now the second former Premier League manager to join the Saudi top flight. Ex-Tottenham and Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo is in charge at the recently crowned Pro League champions Al Ittihad.
