He's feeling well, has no issues." While it wasn't a resounding endorsement of his star player, right now, Isak could do without any additional attention or hype. Isak has clocked up just 253 Premier League minutes out of the 720 played by Liverpool since his arrival in early September, excluding stoppage time.

Slot was, in fact, compelled to revise that earlier judgement when addressing the media ahead of the City defeat, stating: "I know that I said three weeks ago that his pre-season has ended, so now it's time for us to see where he is. So, again I have to say, give him some time." This is why Isak's arrival on the international stage with Sweden once again leaves Liverpool anxiously hoping its club-record signing will be carefully managed.

Rosen has stayed on as part of Potter's coaching setup, so it seems unlikely that communication regarding Isak and Liverpool has ceased. Should Isak participate in both matches against Switzerland and Slovenia, he will have featured in more World Cup qualifiers than Premier League fixtures by the time he returns to Merseyside towards the end of next week, ahead of Nottingham Forest's visit.
