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

We have been linked all summer to him, yet is he throwing his toys out the pram? It's very rarely a player we are linked to or sign behaves this way. Nunes was one. But the club would usually question the character of someone acting this way and don't look to disrupt a club - it's not how we do business.

What's to say Isak doesn't do the exact same thing if Barca or Real come knocking in a couple of years?

He has a better chance of success at the dippers and will get more money but Newcastle have helped him make his name and he has three years left on his contract. They've hardly treated him badly.

Mahrez forced Leicester to sell him so we could sign him. He refused to stay. He put in a transfer request and did interviews saying he’s “fiercely ambitious” Leicester wanted almost 100 mil, the deal was practically impossible until he pushed for the move a lot.

As we’ve seen he’s the most humble players we’ve ever had. Still talks beautifully about us till this day.

Totally agree, he's behaved like a spoilt child and spat his dummy out.

Liverpool are the biggest cunts though, not only have they unsettled him, they rubbed the Geordies faces in it by signing Ekitike as well.

Saying that Wissa is doing exactly the same at Brentford so he can get a move to Newcastle.

Ahh of course the Liverpool fan sees the human in all this.
Ever the humanitarians aren’t you? fighting for the little guy, the potato famine sufferers (2025), or the bottle throwers.

This is your **** of a club’s fault by the way, tapping him up and refusing to meet a clubs evaluation of him and letting him make an utter twat of himself. So well done!

It’s amazing they they just don’t see it .. or they have skin like a fucking elephant
 
If I were Newcastle I'd up the transfer fee to $125-130 million because Isak's being such a **** about this. If you want to disgrace yourself that's one thing. But to bring the club into it by saying he had "assurances" or "promises" from the club and now they're reneging on it. Poor form. Unfortunately, because FIFA Article 17 was changed to favor players, Newcastle may have no choice but to sell him or risk getting nothing.

Newcastle basically saying he's lying:


I'm inclined to believe the club to be honest. None of the timelines make sense from Isak's perspective.

He's been tapped up by Liverpool during the summer and is now trying to force it.

Jimmy … err… nailed it


‘(S)he’s lying’

Either he puts a transfer request in, or he should shut up and get back to playing football. Is he really prepared to cause such a rift, and at this rate pretty much every club bar the dippers will be booing him, just for the sake of not losing his loyalty bonus? Let's be honest, he hardly deserves it now anyway. The lack of respect and damage he has done to his current club, to the fans, his teammates and coaches, is growing daily.

A transfer request puts the ball in Newcastle's court. Isak then discuss with the dippers on how they compensate him for taking that step, and clearly they've already been chatting so should be no problem. I'm sure Liverpool would rather not pay additional for Isak, either to him or to Newcastle directly, but it's clear that at this moment £120m or whatever it was isn't going to get it done and I think now that line is drawn Newcastle will stick by it.

Seems Liverpool didn't learn any lessons from tapping up Van Dyke. But there again why should they? They got their own way too there in the end, with zero consequences other than other fans thought they'd acted like two faced liars yet again.

Would be funny as hell if he gets his move at the highest price, locking dipper pursestrings for a few seasons, then struggles to even hit Nunez numbers or to deal with the hostile atmosphere at every away ground. That'd be karma :)
 
- One club putting in a bid, the other wanting way too much?
- Player trying to force move
- "Gentlemans agreement being denied"

Interview with Gary Neville on the cards next?

Were the comments in Kane thread all calling him a ****? And telling Levy to hold firm?
Genuinely couldn't give a shit how this saga goes, he doesn't make them better defensively so the overall improvement is negligible imo. Just find the contrast funny.
 
There must now be a significant degree of doubt that this transfer is going to take place which would be a horrendous outcome for LFC. They even sold Doak yesterday leaving them with 4 forwards.

If a club comes to an agreement with a player, then changes their mind. Making the player see out their contract, in whatever way they see fit, all the work they have done improving the prospects of the club, are taking a huge hit.

Some posters are letting their hearts overrule their head. Imagine you're a talented footballer and your dream is to play for City.
You're offered the chance to join a club, that took the step of forcing a player to see out 3 years of his contract, when he declared his desire to leave.
You are also offered the chance to join Aston Villa. You are destined to be the star player but are on a 5 year deal.

In that scenario, which club would you rather be at, when City come calling 2 years into your contract?

Fucking lol.

Well done, whichever blue created this parody account for a laugh. Well played.

If I wanted to play for City and was good enough I wouldn't sign a 6 year contract with another sides without written guarantees that I could leave at a certain price when the opportunity arises.

And if City weren't prepared to pay that price that's tough.
