And then he didn't have time to hit it with his left foot because if he had swung it with his left, then the defender would have got to him.
So the only thing he could do was do that little toe poke what he did.
and it was a world-class finish.
And he was the difference, him and Wurz, I thought, and the understanding.
We spoke to Ekotike after the game, because I did it with PLP, and I asked him about the partnership with Wurz.
Is it one of those where you've worked at it, or is it just sort of happened?
Because I think the best ones are the ones that just click and happen, and that's what he sort of said.
He was full of praise for him to play
with him and you saying when he makes a running noise, he's going to pass to him and what have you.
So there seems to be a really good understanding happening between those two.
He missed the easiest one, didn't he?
He missed it for his hat trick.
I mean, he had one in the first half.
Yeah, he had that little dink in the first half where Nick Pope stood up.
But then when he went through and sort of mugged Dan Byrne in the second half, 1v1, and he just couldn't sort it out.
But yeah, he's a real talent without doubt.
Well, he's only getting better.
So it depends how long Isak's going to be out.
I mean, if he continues in this form and on this rise, then he'll be the number one.
I mean, he wasn't cheap.
