Alexander Isak | Cried his way to a £130m move

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Why does the PFA turn a blind eye to players refusing to play/train but still want to be paid?

Not sure they do. The only way they could get involved is if the player says he’s injured, rather than on strike.

A striking player wouldn’t be asking to be paid.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Sesko plus Wissa would give them a very good front 2, a new dimension, plus added depth, and they wouldn’t miss Isak imo.

Brentford can cry all they like but if a good wedge gets put on the table, Wissa is gone.

The “message” it sends out is that this is the reality. Liverpool are the much bigger club and PSR is a thing. That message is hardly revelatory or likely to surprise any Newcastle fan who has more than 3 brain cells.

Brentford may really struggle next season if their team is sold and they have an unproven manager.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Don't worry about it, I've watched that Sesko quite a few times and he's actually worse than Hojlund and Zirkzee

He isn’t. He’s a cracking player.

 

[alexmcity]

They'll return, Isak WILL be a Liverpool player

You can bet on that. Easy money.



Don't do it.

 

[alexmcity]

Who is surprised?

I think Liverpool may try again, but the result will likely be the same. Unless they cough up 150m, which they won't do.

The whole saga is a preparation for next summer. Or January if Liverpool are desperate.

keiran maguire is NOT a fucking expert, he is shameless self publicist who would say the moon was made of cheese if you paid him enough

It wasn't Maguire. I can't think who it was.
He explained how they had spent very little last year and that helped.

They've brought in more than £100m this window and they'll also sell Nunez and Harvey Elliott.
That'll bring in around another £70m plus, I would suspect.

Oh and now they're selling Tyler Morton for £15m!!!!!!!!

 

[Semper aggressus]

Well done Newcastle. Fuck the scouse cunts off.

They've turned his head now. Give it a month or two and they'll be back. He will end up in Murkeyside.

 

[nmc]

BBC knock £10m off the price !

 

[remember arthur mann]

Expect rags interest with their new found wealth.

That’s ok. We’ll have Steed Malbranque by then

 

[BertTrautmann'sParachute]

After the tapping-up and all that hype in the media they come up with that as a bid? Cheap, murdering bastards.

 

[Agueroooooooooooo]

Also...they have expectations this year, last season was a free hit everyone thought they'd struggle

Saw cracks in Slot when the pressure ramped up last year, even though they were miles in front

After spending a record window, after a league win they will be expected to win it all

Quadruple?
As that lady in Bristol said "What, another one?"

 

[Lowtower]

Is it well done Newcastle?

I wouldn't want some no good **** playing for us who didn't want to be here

 

[waspish]

What I don’t get is that Liverpool are making all the narrative in there favour! Why don’t someone who is actually running Newcastle just come out and say Isak can leave for £150m not a penny less or he is staying! oh and tell sky the media that Liverpool are lucky we ain’t as bitter Liverpool or we be making a complaint

They are crying at Red Shirt Cartel central in Salford.

Alexander Isak transfer news: Liverpool prepared to walk away after Newcastle reject opening bid

Liverpool could walk away from a move for Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak after their opening £110m offer was rejected.

Tells Howe he wants out then goes to train with the club that gets 10% of any future sell on fee.

Nothing suspicious. All above board. You cannot question the cult that makes Scientology look like the C of E.

 

[Blue Coop]

I think the way Isak has dealt with it has probably made the deal a lot more difficult. Had he kept it out of the press (or his agent) then it’d be getting done. Now probably less likely.

 

[I'm Blue]

They’ve unsettled the player now they’ll just wait for the player and agent to do their bit.
Just like VanDickhead he’ll go on strike.
Watch this space…

I reckon you're right with that. His position at Newcastle is now untenable. He's been tapped and there's no going back now.
