Liverpool took two wins and a draw from their three September fixtures a professional 2-0 victory at Ipswich Town, a hard-fought 0-0 draw with Fulham at Anfield, and a gritting 1-0 win away at Bournemouth, Iraola’s former stomping ground.That run produced three consecutive league clean sheets and an impressive 322 minutes without conceding. Supporters voted the young Frenchman Liverpool’s Player of the Match in that tense win at Bournemouth, where he won possession six times and came out top in three of his four duels.



Following his magnificent displays in red, newly appointed manager Zinadine Zidane handed the 21-year-old his senior international debut for France during the three week October international window.However, just as Jacquet’s dream week reached it's cruel end. The young Frenchman suffered a strain to his left hamstring, immediately putting his availability for Liverpool's upcoming fixtures in serious doubt.Seeing three primary options in attack and defence return with fitness questions creates a massive headache for the coaching staff ahead of a pivotal month.The Liverpool pair face competition for the PFA prize.

Groß recorded two goals and three assists in three league games for the Seagulls and has already picked up the Premier League’s official Player of the Month award for September becoming the first Brighton player to win it. Semenyo racked up two goals and two assists as City won all three of their matches, while Schade netted twice to keep Brentford unbeaten.Yet, regardless of who takes home the trophy, the timing of Isak and Jacquet’s form and the anxiety over Jacquet's recovery could not be more critical for Iraola and Liverpool.As October begins, Iraola’s initial bedding-in period is officially over.
