From a not letting players take the piss out of us perspective. The latest comments from Howe don’t point to much genuine desire from him or the players to welcome Isak back, but stranger things have happened.

It could serve us long-term, though, which is all that matters.

The thing for me is, we saw how many goals Callum Wilson scored in a poorer version of the team/formation we use now. Even pre-injury there’s no way I’m having Wilson labelled ‘elite’ at any point in his career. Woltemade is the elite-level/soon-to-be elite level striker that Isak is/was, it’s the consistent goals and better physical play that Wilson brought we need alongside that now.

Let him rot.

There’s surely no way back?

Fair enough, that. I think he’s got more about him than people give him credit for and some real core strengths that we’ve lacked for a long while. Hopefully we get him so we can see

There’s no way you can say this with such certainty given what we’ve seen done with the likes of Burn, Murphy, and Joelinton.

People still not able to understand rotation is it? Probably a good crossover with those who’ve previously moaned at Howe for not changing the team enough an’ all.

He’d be a quality signing.

It is what the selling club, not Wissa, deem ‘reasonable’ and that number surely only goes up the later into the window it goes?

Still fancy our chances here, but I’ve been wrong many times before.

All booked up for USG, ended up doing Newcastle-Amsterdam then a train (£240 return all-in) due to the prices from the likes of Edinburgh and Manchester ballooning. No driving is always a bonus, like.

A ‘reasonable offer’ means absolutely nowt, unfortunately pal.

Rod’s going to have a good night at least.

Definition of bobbins. But Elanga was worse.

Fucking hell this was poor. Roll on Wolves.

Eddie saying he’s intentionally rotating after not doing so in the last couple of years. Like it.

Reinildo looks like a competition winer

Nee atmosphere, plenty empty seats. Novelty worn off already?

Who are we all choosing for the 3pm hate watch then lads? Plenty options.

That one was actually unreal, but it’s purely because Bill is such an inspirational fella.
