Alexander Isak can beat Erling Haaland and two Liverpool players show reason why

Former Liverpool striker Dean Saunders has backed Alexander Isak to compete with Manchester City forward Erling Haaland for the Premier League Golden Boot. Isak scored the only goal in Liverpool's 1-0 victory against Bournemouth on Sunday, bringing his total to four goals in five top-flight matches this season. The win extended head coach Andoni Iraola's unbeaten start at the club.

Saunders explained that Liverpool's attacking setup now creates more space for the Swedish striker. During the Bournemouth goal, Cody Gakpo provided the cross while Florian Wirtz and Bradley Barcola made distracting runs in the penalty box, freeing Isak to convert.
