Not many Liverpool fans had envisioned that Ekitike would start his Liverpool career in the impressive fashion that he has, and the Frenchman's brilliance coupled with a slow start from Isak has left many fans questioning how the pair will both be accommodated in the team going forward. “There's not many teams these days playing with two centre-forwards and then obviously what doesn't help is that Isak didn't train for a long time.
“Once he's back to full fitness, which is hopefully soon, I hope there's a way they get both on the pitch and we see the form he showed in Newcastle.” Hamann's comments come after former Liverpool teammate Jamie Carragher expressed his concerns over the Isak-Ekitike conundrum earlier this week. “It’s very difficult to see a Liverpool team get two strikers on the pitch, it’s not easy to do that.
So I understand trying to get Isak in the team even though Ekitike was doing well – because he’s a great player, he’s got to get him fit and he’s also paid a lot of money for him. “My mind boggles going forward how this is going to work, but right now Ekitike’s got the shirt, he’s playing really well and it will probably do Isak a little bit of good if he’s out of the team to build his fitness up in training more.”Story SavedYou can find this story in My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.
