Alexander Isak has been left out of Sweden's lineup for its final World Cup qualifier against Slovenia, despite him indicating he was ready to start following his recent injury. The striker made his return from injury on Saturday as he came off the bench in Sweden’s 4-1 defeat to Switzerland.

He will have to wait for his chance with his national side again though, having been named on the bench for Sweden's final qualifier. His place in Liverpool’s side has been questioned as a result of his injury issue and his early form for the club, having scored just one goal in his eight appearances so far.

Isak has spoken out about his frustrations recently amid his injury lay-off, and suggested he was ready to start against Slovenia. So it's been frustrating.
