Emile Heskey has said it will take time for Alexander Isak to get up to speed at Liverpool, but insisted that if the striker continues to put in the hard yards, he will succeed at Anfield. “He's getting his fitness back.



It's going to take a bit of what a bit of time to understand the formation and where he wants to play, getting used to the players that he's playing with,” the ex-England international exclusively told Liverpool.com, in association with William Hill. So he's got to understand where he's going to get his chances from, what sort of runs he's going to make.
