In an interview a few days ago, Premier League star Shearer believed that Liverpool forward Ekitic has proven with his performance that he is fully capable of becoming Liverpool's main center, even though the club signed Isaac with a record transfer fee this summer.
Shearer said: "In my opinion, Ekitic has done well enough and deserves to be Liverpool's number one center, regardless of the transfer fee or other factors. He came earlier than anyone else, has scored goals, and performed well. Yesterday he was placed in a more wide position and almost didn't participate much before the goal. The commentators mentioned at the time that he didn't touch the ball much. But look at the way he handled the goal and how he found the shooting opportunity, it is completely sufficient. So that he has reason to think that he should be a stable starter. "
"I know that modern football is different. It is very difficult to start every game in the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup. But judging from his current performance, he does have reason to believe that he has done enough to deserve to remain in the starting lineup. "
Liverpool signed Ekitic from Frankfurt this summer. He quickly entered the state and scored 6 goals in 12 appearances in various competitions. Isaac made 8 appearances in all competitions, scoring 1 goal and providing 1 assist.
