Iraola has already spoken at length about how he requires his forwards to contribute off the ball even more than he wants them to find the back of the net, particularly from Isak.

He also won two aerial duels, proving that he’s willing to fight as much as he is talented with the ball at his feet. Cody Gakpo is also more than decent in the No.9 role, but it’s safe to say he would be able to learn a lot from Liverpool’s centre-forwards.
