AIYannick Carrasco, Al-Shabab player, said that time is key to improving results and that the international break will help the team overcome their current run of poor form and achieve better cohesion among the squad, especially as many players joined late in the transfer window, in addition to the fixture congestion the team is facing.
Speaking to Al Arabiya FM, Carrasco noted that the club has signed more than 15 new players recently and changed the coach, which will require some time to achieve full harmony within the team.
Carrasco added, “I apologize to the Al-Shabab fans and I feel their frustration. We promise to work harder in the coming period to achieve better results.”
Al-Shabab played out a goalless draw with Al-Fayha on Saturday, just days after losing 2-1 to Al-Kholood last Wednesday.
Al-Shabab currently sit 14th in the Saudi Pro League table with four points from four draws and three defeats, and have yet to record a win since the start of the season.
