If its true about Isak

[tinostongue]

Strong words from Eddie and needed to be said - yet again the cosumate professional and saying nothing till the tour is finished.

I suspect Isak and agent will be in a meeting first thing tomorrow with Eddie and Sheik Yasir.

I hope they have a pair of brown trousers in their wardrobes, they could need them! (Isak and his agent that is)

[tinostongue]

Why are we *****footing around with Sesko, just offer them the amount of money they want, before manu sell one of their players and nick him. Tell isak he’s staying, sign Wissa and Sessko, isaks on the bench until further notice, or until he’s proved he’s recovered from his “ injury”

We have and they are happy with it.

Sesko is dragging his feet, I would say waiting to see if Manure will bid.

Why we have allegedly told him he has 24 hours to make his mind up or we move on.

I kinda hope we have given him an ultimatum.

Not got a problem if he wants to play for Man U-realistic enough to know where we stand as far as foreign players go when it comes to them as a 'heritage'club. But we need to do what's best for us and this striker situation seems to be distracting us from importamt upgrades (or even much-needed replacements for departed players) elsewhere.

Heritage club, it's basically what it is at this point. It's a theme park, a stately home, a tourist attraction rather than a football club!

It's clear that Liverpool aren't gonna reach the 150m 'magic number' despite anyone at the club confirming any actual number. However, the 110m starting offer means they are gonna go up to 125m MAX.

You don't start at 110 if you can pay 150m Low ball for 150m is 130-135m, not 2/3 of the magic number.

For arguments sake say Newcastle have told Isak's agent that 150m gets it done. Which still isn't confirmed, but let's say 150m

Isak's agent scuttles back over to the rats nest and says 'They'll accept 150m' the bin dippers say 'we can go to 125m, we won't pay more than 125m'.

Which, lefts face it, it very very possible. Then what?

As I've said it completely unlikely that the player leaves this summer.

Bale to Real, The Press gave Levy a standing ovation for holding out for all the money.
Coutinho to Barcelona, The press fell over themselves at Shrewd Skip Rats for getting all the money.
Guehi staying at Palace, The press applauded Whiley Parish for sticking to his guns and not kowtowing to Newcastle in their pursuit of their captain.

So, why should and why would Newcastle do any different for their star player and prized asset?

There is no deal to be done, there is no negotiation. It's 150m Up front, to start the conversation. They don't put that offer on the table. There is nothing more to say on the subject.

Not that that will stop the liars in the MSM spinning more and more BS and horse sh!te.

The biggest point we need to raise with Sesko is to look at what has happened at the clubs/under the managers:

Isak came in for £63M - a decent player which NUFC/Eddie has polished into a striker that a record Prem fee will be needed to sign up.

Hojlund went to Man Utd for £72M, his career fell off a cliff and now they are looking to sell him for £30M.

Look at the improvements Eddie and team have made to players right through the team, compared with how Man Utd, and Amorin last season, have put players backwards in terms of development.

IF he chooses Man Utd, it’s to get the wages now, if he joins us it’s for football… simple as.

If he still chooses Man Utd, then bullet dodged as far as I am concerned.

If Izak isnt happy he wont play well and to be frank a lot of his play is rubbish anyway.

i would let him rot in the reserves/academy unless he proves consistentaly that he is more than interested in putting in a shift during games.

[PhoneymcRingRing]

I can see him going for ?135m that?s somewhere in the middle.

I don?t think if he?s here after the window closes he?ll but his head down and play. If anything it will suit himself better to play well for a move next season abd we better have a replacement in by then.

Agreed. I think he'll still put in performances. It's a world cup year and he won't want Gykoreres to overshadow him.
When Suarez tried to force a move from Liverpool to Barca, he had to stay a year and had one of the best of his career.

I think Man Utd made Ronaldo stay an extra year too if my memory serves me well.

New contact with a buy out clause and sell to Barcalona next summer. Perfect scenario..

Anyone but a prem team. It makes complete sense as a Lewandowski replacement.

Why on earth is a PIF club still trying to buy Darwin Nunez? Effectively funding Liverpool to buy Isak.

Why on earth would anybody want to sign Nunez?
