Alexander Isak on his fitness and form, Liverpool fans and Barcola excitement

“Firstly, really good that the season has started again – obviously you miss it being away,” said the Sweden international.

“I’m feeling good with the pre-season and the start of the season as well, scoring a couple of goals. It’s just about keeping this rhythm.

“That \[his display versus Ipswich\] is how I want to play and that’s how I want to score goals. I was certainly happy with that. But as I said, it’s early days and I’ve got to keep going.

“I feel good, I feel like I’m in a good place. With the team as well, we’re getting better and better. We want to keep this rhythm.”

An unfortunate ankle injury that included a fibula fracture was sustained by Isak in the process of scoring a goal at Tottenham Hotspur last December.

Overall, he was able to start on only 13 occasions for Liverpool in the last campaign.

The No.9 insisted he tried to take out positives from a frustrating period of his career and detailed his appreciation for the support of Kopites along the way.

“It has been challenging of course, with a lot of injuries especially,” he said of the past 12 months.

“But there have been some beautiful moments as well, good learning moments. I take all of that as stuff to help me get better and get stronger, not looking back too much and just focusing on what’s ahead.

“\[The backing of Liverpool fans\] means a lot. Obviously, I’ve known and seen how brilliant the fans are at this football club.
