## Resource

Liverpool’s new boss Andoni Iraola admits fans have every right to be frustrated after just five games—only two wins, a frustrating draw against a bottom-half side, and inconsistent performances. He blames player fatigue for the dip in form, noting his high-intensity style wears down even the fittest athletes after 30-35 minutes. With back-to-back games already straining the squad, Iraola faces a tough balancing act: dialing back intensity to preserve energy could slow adoption of his system. Compounding the pressure, key fixtures like Tottenham and Bournemouth loom, followed by a packed October schedule with little room for recovery. True progress under Iraola may have to wait until they exit at least one competition—no easy path to redemption.
