They can surely be diplomatic without "misrepresenting the issue" (Which I read higher up the thread and is the perfect term). Burn saying "you know what Newcastle fans are like" doesn't sit right as it's needlessly reductive. But this is such a tedious subject that is continuing to be exhausting. All for a battle that we've already lost anyway. Meh.

Yes. Yes we are. Sabotage!

Yes exactly. Sabotage is partly for effect, but then he is supposedly a professional. But I certainly believe he got to a point where he thought that whether we got into the Champions League or not was not that important and also when weighing up his options, that us missing out on the CL could constitute an opportunity for him. In the context of elite sports, where the margins are famously "inches", thinking like that will have a big impact.

I have acquired. Lovely. Sizes pretty big though! So got L (when I'm normally an XL and DHgate XXL)... quite a range.

It was just yesterday to be fair. But also never.

What an absolute horrific bloke, it's just perfectly on brand for what Isak has shown himself to be.

Don't know if it's because it's been a long day, but beyond the potential of twitter bollocks that's just complete gibberish.

Many players seem to do 2 posts nowadays. One for new club and one for the club they depart from to keep messages separate. Although I hope he never talks about us again.

Pardew vs PSR Live from wherever that is. Would watch.

Aye, Premier League and Sky Sports will be very much celebrating a mission accomplished this evening.

His constant diving is horrendous. It's just abhorrent. Add to that his lack of production and getting himself sent off... Very worried about him this season.

That starts off pretty well, and then...

... It's time.

PS: also exhausting because of the timing. Even though we've done good business at the death of the last few days (incoming), this stuff going so far into the season is not interesting, not fun and just shit. Another thing that surely devalues the fun and brand but no one seems to give a shit.

Exhausting is all I can say for now. Really, really disappointed in the way the Isak thing played out, and even more so that it is too the benefit of Liverpool. Once again, what a freak. And worried about the precedent this sets. Glad we didn't get Etikite, because think he's a nightmare in terms of attitude, but also not a big fan of Wissa and seemed like a diving merchant most times I've seen him. Having said that, overall think we've done alright and as long as Eddie has been driving a lot of it then that's the solace I will be taking... Will just have to take.

The Pardew redemption arc?

Extremely professional AND has a good mentality Man, the trolling is going to be incessant.

"Only wants Liverpool" Forever a fucking freak this guy.

Well this is all just deflating and depressing.

... Tomorrow is going to be unbearable

Exactly. There will be a time and place to potentially give him the hate. It is not yet.

Exactly, fans getting vocal about Isak is absolutely no good. Just get behind the players that are there. This has been the mantra from the very start of the season and reinforced by Howe. Even though my mind is still very much in line with the plan of fucking everybody off and re integrating - emotionally, after a result like today and seeing us on 2 points rather than 9, it is very difficult to stay strong.

So Elanga really can't finish for shit. Wasn't just that first chance at Villa.

Well... We're in trouble this season
