In the 6th round of the Premier League yesterday, Liverpool lost to Crystal Palace 1-2 and suffered its first defeat of the season. In this game, Isaac started for Liverpool in the Premier League for the first time. After the Champions League against Atletico Madrid, the two "kings" Isaac and Werz started at the same time, but the results were not good.
Liverpool's large-scale introduction of Wilz, Ekitic and Isaac on the front line this season has made fans full of expectations. Liverpool's forward combinations in the first few rounds were Ekitic + Salah + Garkepo + Wilz. It was not until the Champions League match against Atletico Madrid that Slott adjusted his forward starting lineup for the first time and replaced Ekitic with Isaac.

The performance of the two "market kings" Isaac and Wilz is not satisfactory at present. Salah seems to be unable to break through the ball with age, while Gakepo is criticized for his single offensive means. On the contrary, Chiesa and Ngumoha, who are playing on the bench, will surprise fans from time to time.
Liverpool scored 17 goals in 8 games this season. With the current defense line not stable enough, how should Slotte train Liverpool's forward line?
