Newcastle striker Isak: I'm freer with Sweden

Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak admits he feels he has a more mobile role with Sweden.

Isak concedes he enjoys dropping deeper when needed for Sweden.

"I will probably be a little freer in my game," Isak said. "I can move a little in depth and come down a little and find a good balance. A role in which I feel quite secure.

"I have not been hugely involved in the matches that have been. It's not then (with those match photos) that I feel at my best, so it's clear that was a contributing factor. There, I have my own responsibility to change the situation.

"There are many who do incredibly well in their club team. Then it's not that simple to just throw them all in at the same time.

"If we get it done as a team, we can be very dangerous. We haven't reached the maximum potential yet."
