The story in brief

32-second read

Liverpool’s attack is likely to take on an unfamiliar look during Sunday’s hotly anticipated clash against Manchester City, as Andoni Iraola reckons with injuries to Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo.

Isak and Gakpo have been Liverpool ‘s two best attackers so far this season, and the loss of both for what is Iraola’s biggest game in charge so far is a cruel one for supporters to swallow.

Nevertheless, it should offer a chance for Bradley Barcola to step up and finally begin to justify his £123m transfer fee. Iraola suggested that Barcola could play as a centre-forward during his press conference on Friday, but the Frenchman has now spoken out to confirm that the left wing remains his preference.
