Sweden coach Janne Andersson has revealed that Newcastle United's struggle to manage Alexander Isak's workload is a factor in his decision to take a more cautious approach with the striker. Isak has been in and out of the Newcastle team this season, and Andersson believes that the player's inconsistent availability has affected his form. The Sweden coach has opted to manage Isak's minutes carefully, citing the player's high level of commitment and the need to maintain his fitness levels. Andersson has stated that he wants to ensure Isak is available for the World Cup, and that he is not overplaying him. The coach has also praised Isak's ability to make an impact off the bench, suggesting that he may be used in a more limited capacity in the future.

Andersson's comments come after Isak was left out of Newcastle's squad for the recent match against Bournemouth, with the coach citing the player's need for rest and recovery. This has led to speculation that Isak's relationship with manager Eddie Howe may be strained, but Andersson has downplayed this, suggesting that the decision was purely tactical. The Sweden coach has also praised Isak's commitment to the team, stating that he is a "big player" and an important part of the squad.

Isak has been in and out of the Newcastle team this season, and his inconsistent availability has raised questions about his fitness and commitment. However, Andersson is confident that the player will be available for the World Cup, and that he will make a major impact when he returns to the team. The Sweden coach has a good relationship with Isak, and has worked with him since his youth days.
