DAMMAM: It has been 17 days since Matthias Jaissle left Al-Ahli for Newcastle, and yet it would be very difficult to find any discourse surrounding Al-Ahli in Saudi football circles that does not focus entirely on the German head coach. That has left recently appointed Marino Pusic with a tough task — filling the shoes of a head coach who brought unprecedented success to a club backed by arguably the most passionate supporters in the region. His first two games at the Al-Ahli helm did not help his case either.
