Coventry are top of the Championship and host West Brom in today’s early kick-off.

The hosts started their campaign this season with an impressive 12-game unbeaten run before their first defeat at Wrexham last month. They have since returned to form with consecutive wins against Sheffield United and Stoke City, having now won eight of their last nine matches.

I had a conversation with the performance staff about what is the best way for Alex – not for Liverpool – to get him as fast as we can to 100%. I always have to find the balance between what is the best for him as an individual and for us as a team.

I do know that a 100% fit Alexander Isak is a big, big, big plus for this team. But for him to get there he might need to have minutes where you could argue that another player might be further ahead of him in terms of match fitness.
