‘I think he’s [Isak] done that unbelievably well since he’s here.
‘It’s not easy to do. I don’t think this was his finest game, and I don’t think he’ll be surprise at me saying that. But he was in the right place at the right time. He maybe got a bit of luck with the finish, but he’s done that consistently, he’s always in the right place.
‘I think on another day he would have score more but I don’t think he was 100 per cent. That’s why we withdrew him.
‘We hope it’s nothing too serious but he just wasn’t feeling 100 per cent in his groin. He was just a little bit unsure in his movement, so that’s why we withdrew him.’
Howe also reveale that Kieran Tripper, who was substitute late on against Brentford, is also nursing a groin complaint.
‘He said it was like a cramp sensation in his groin,’ Howe said.
‘We hope it’s nothing serious, but that is the negative today. We’ve got a few niggles, and we just hope they’re nothing serious. We have such a small squad as you could see from our bench, so we can’t afford to pick up any more injuries.’
