Robbie Fowler backs Alexander Isak to thrive under Andoni Iraola at Liverpool

Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has expressed optimism regarding the club’s upcoming season under new manager Andoni Iraola. Fowler believes Iraola’s high-intensity, aggressive tactical style could provide a significant opportunity for the squad during this period of transition.

Specifically, Fowler identified striker Alexander Isak as a player who could thrive under Iraola’s system. Isak, who joined Liverpool from Newcastle United in a record-breaking £125 million move, struggled during his debut season due to poor match fitness and multiple injuries that limited him to just 1,032 minutes of play and four goals. Fowler noted that Isak’s abilities align well with Iraola’s preference for playing on the front foot and moving the ball forward quickly.
