LEWIS STEELE AT ANFIELD: They used to call it 'Pep roulette' at Manchester City. A phrase coined by fantasy football nerds about Pep Guardiola's tendency to chop and change his front line every week to devastating effect. We haven't refined our snazzy phrase for Andoni Iraola yet - the working drafts are 'AI Bingo' or 'Iraola tombola' - but the Liverpool boss has a devastating depth of attacking talent that‚ if they all fulfil their potential‚ can lead this team to dizzying heights. That is caveated with a reminder that Iraola's Reds are simultaneously plagued by many teething problems in other areas and are far from complete. We will discuss that in due course but first‚ a word on Iraola's deck of cards that contains multiple aces and jokers.

BRENTFORD 1-2 LIVERPOOL - OLIVER HOLT AT THE GTECH COMMUNITY STADIUM: It was not a classic head butt that put Jeremy Jacquet down deep into time added on at the end of the first half. In other cultures‚ in other eras‚ it might have been interpreted as a nod of recognition from Yehor Yarmoliuk. But it was enough. Yarmoliuk was sent off and the game was changed. Until then‚ Liverpool had struggled to assert themselves. Bradley Barcola had missed a gilt-edged chance‚ Florian Wirtz had spent another match fretting at the margins and Andoni Iraola's team were soon to suffer two injury blows when both Dominik Szoboszlai and Jeremie Frimpong were forced off.

Harvey Elliott has been accused of being 'well overweight for his physique' by the Spanish press after enduring a difficult start to his loan spell at Valencia. Elliott‚ 23‚ joined the Spanish club on a season-long loan from Liverpool at the start of the month. The midfielder was handed a second chance at the Reds by new boss Andoni Iraola during pre-season‚ after a campaign of struggle on loan at Aston Villa last season. But the England U21 international star failed to impress the Spaniard‚ and he was quickly shipped over to Valencia as he sought game time.

LEWIS STEELE AT VITALITY STADIUM: Andoni Iraola toasted to a happy homecoming - and then prepared to jet off on his holidays knowing his work-in-progress Liverpool side are heading in the right direction‚ slowly but surely. It would be wrong to say the Reds' victory at Iraola's old stomping ground Bournemouth was thoroughly deserved or even convincing but as the new boss takes stock over the international break‚ he will have more positives than negatives to evaluate. Match-winner Alexander Isak is finally showing the sharpness and attacking efficiency the Anfield top brass thought they were paying £125million for a year or so ago‚ while other new signings are settling and previous sub-par performers look back to their best.

LEWIS STEELE AT PORTMAN ROAD: Liverpool were so mesmerisingly impressive in the first half at Portman Road‚ it was easy to forget they had their showpiece signing keeping warm on the bench. Bradley Barcola‚ all £123million of him‚ was limited to a watching brief for the first hour of this game and‚ from his padded seat‚ the Frenchman may have been pondering just how he gets in this team. Alexander Isak led the charge with two goals in the first nine minutes to help Liverpool halfway to their first win of the Andoni Iraola era‚ as the Swede closes in on matching his tally from last season already.

Jamie Carragher believes Liverpool boss Andoni Iraola needs to have an awkward conversation with his vice-captain Dominik Szoboszlai and move him to right-back permanently. Szoboszlai‚ 25‚ was rewarded with a new £350‚000-a-week contract this summer after being named Liverpool's Player of the Season for his impressive performances in midfield last campaign - one of the few positives in what was otherwise a disappointing season for the Reds under Arne Slot. Despite establishing himself as a mainstay in midfield‚ the Hungarian has also been called upon to deputise at right-back‚ doing so sporadically last season and again during the second half of Liverpool's 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

IAN LADYMAN: Alexander Isak used to take penalties for his old club but when Liverpool won one in the 96th minute yesterday‚ I almost hoped he wouldn't take it. He didn't. But Liverpool need him. They really need him and that already feels like a problem for Andoni Iraola as he tries to navigate the early weeks of his time as Liverpool manager. As Liverpool laboured in the latter stages against Newcastle‚ Isak offered absolutely nothing but he stayed on the field simply because Iraola didn't really have any other option.

The Premier League gets underway on Friday as champions Arsenal host Frank Lampard's newly promoted Coventry City. It has been another summer of significant change‚ both on the pitch and in the dugout. Nine clubs will begin the campaign with new managers‚ although some familiar faces remain in the division‚ with Oliver Glasner and Andoni Iraola among those to have switched clubs rather than arrived from outside the league. Newly promoted Hull City‚ Ipswich Town and Coventry will meanwhile be looking to avoid an immediate return to the Championship.

SIMON JONES: Primarily a central defender‚ Araujo would also also provide cover at right back for Jeremie Frimpong and Conor Bradley‚ whose knee injury is set to continue sidelining him for the opening months of the 2026-27 season. The deal is a straight loan for the 27-year-old‚ who signed a new contract until 2031 last year. The centre back will add to Andoni Iraola's options at the heart of his defence following the departure of Ibrahima Konate to Real Madrid.
