However, since that time, it has been Ekitike and not Isak that has taken Liverpool by storm every chance he gets. Isak has made 15 appearances to date so far, scoring twice, once in the League Cup and one in the recent Premier League win over West Ham, and has looked a shadow of himself thus far.

He is a different type of player to Isak as well, which has aided him in his efforts to tie down a starring role for Liverpool for the time-being at the very least. In fairness to Isak, when he has gotten the chance to start this season, the service to him has been almost non-existent.

His classy finish against West Ham showed he has not lost his finishing touch, rather it's opportunities and form that are missing from his game right now. He has 10 goals and an assist from 22 appearances in all comps this season.
