'Scoring goals always lifts some weight off your shoulders' - Isak
[Getty Images] Liverpool striker Alexander Isak says scoring twice in Friday's win at Ipswich "lifts some weight" off his shoulders. Lats summer's £125m signing struggled with form and injuries during his first season with the Reds, but fired past Kjell Scherpen twice inside the opening nine minutes at Portman Road to take his tally to three in three at the start of this campaign. "Winning our first game of the season was very important and I'm happy to be on the scoresheet twice," Isak said. "Scoring goals always lifts some weight off your shoulders. It's important, especially at the start of the season, to get off to a good start. "I'm happy to score and I want to keep on building on this." It was Liverpool's first win under new boss Andoni Iraol, who gave a debut off the bench to new £123m signing Bradley Barcola. "It changes a lot for all of us when you have a new manager and new players come in," Isak added. "We are all still adapting and learning the new way but we all feel all very happy and optimistic with where we are at and knowing we will only get better as well. "It's very exciting. We have a lot of danger up front and adding Bradley into that is only going to make us much better. So, we are all really happy to have him here." Listen to the full chat below or on BBC Sounds
