Isak’s Aftonbladet interview: “No answer” for form • The headline quote: Alexander Isak admits he is unsure why his start at Anfield has been “slow” but insists he is focused on “turning that around” rather than dwelling on the numbers. • Finding “balance”: The striker explains he has learned to stay “never too high, never too low,” using his mental growth to navigate the pressure of a British record transfer fee. • Career perspective: Drawing on “tough periods” at Dortmund and Real Sociedad, the 26-year-old vows to “fight his way out” of his current form ahead of the trip to Tottenham. “I don’t really have the answer to that,” he said when asked about his form since joining Liverpool.

“The team-wise thing – it’s clear that it’s been slow, but that’s how it is in football. “And for me too…it’s not the first time in my career that I’ve gone through a period like this, or been in bad shape.

“That’s how a football career works, it’s just something you have to fight your way out of.” The obvious caveat when it comes to Isak’s tough start to life at Anfield is that he arrived short of fitness and match sharpness, having not played or trained with a team since May. Trying to find that balance, that’s what I feel I’ve gotten better at,” he continued.
