McManaman: Isaac must use his performance to break doubts, everyone is waiting to see his joke
6686 Sports News on October 26th, before the Liverpool away team played against Brentford in the 9th round of the Premier League, Liverpool star and former England international McManaman talked about the topic of the Red Army's new striker Isaac in an interview with TNT Sports in front of the camera.
McManaman said, "Isak has already said everything with his performance, hasn't he? He has proven his scoring ability in the Premier League during his time at Newcastle. And objectively speaking, this 26-year-old forward has improved compared to Liverpool's forward line last year. I am definitely not right to say this. No disrespect to Nunez, but Isaac looks better than him at first glance - he plays with more composure and seems to have greater scoring potential, so I think Liverpool's signing has really strengthened the team, and this is what the team needs."
"But Isaac has a huge burden now in a Liverpool uniform. Pressure. As Liverpool's No. 9, he must prove that he is worthy of this expectation. At present, he has not proven his ability due to various reasons - physical condition, final shot accuracy, etc. But if he cannot score 20 goals this season, public opinion will definitely label him as a "parallel import". The turmoil in the summer and the various incidents that occurred during his time at Newcastle have already put him in the vortex of public opinion. Now he is the target of public criticism, and many people are waiting to see the joke, saying that he "really failed" because of what he did, and now he must use his performance to defeat most people's doubts.
