Bournemouth 0-1 Liverpool: What Iraola said

Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola speaking to BBC Sport: "For us the result is very good. It is a difficult place to come. We could feel in the beginning of the game how intense they were and we were not winning the duels. Second half we played better, they were a little bit tired and we could finish the job. "I wasn't happy with the first half, honestly. The first 20 minutes they were putting us under pressure. We were not comfortable. Towards the end of the first half and in the second half we found better positions on the ball." On Jeremy Jacquet: "Happy for him, he has helped us in this defensive side with a third clean sheet in a row. I am very happy for him to get his international call-up. He is showing composure and confidence and we are happy." Did you know? Liverpool have kept three consecutive clean sheets in the Premier League for the first time since September 2024 (four in a row). Andoni Iraola is the first manager to remain unbeaten in his first five league games in charge of Liverpool (won two, drawn three) since Joe Fagan in September 1983. In five games this season (four goals), Liverpool's Alexander Isak has already surpassed his Premier League goal tally for the entirety of last season in the competition (three goals in 14 apps).
