Ghandis Flip-Flop

It’s (some of) our U21's vs Huddersfield's League 1 squad. Not Huddersfield's U21’s

It looks like they’ve never played this formation before, there’s gaps everywhere

To be fair Harrison's kicking reminds me of Pope's

We've just loaned out a few and I’m presuming the likes of Shahar are away on youth international duty too, which doesn’t help

No idea because every one of them I’ve watched has shown them to be completely unbalanced mismatches

That’s an understatement 2-0 down in less than 15 minutes

After seeing Ekitike in their first 3 games, he looks as dynamic as Isak but capable of running for 90 minutes. I guess we are going to see just how much was Isak's inability to run for 90 minutes vs Isak phoning it in post cup final soon enough. Let’s hope it’s the former

I dunno a motivated and committed Wissa and Woltemade is potentially better than a phone it in for two thirds of the season Isak, regardless of how good he is

Tell me what I’ve said which is factually incorrect there exactly? is it in relation to Woltemade, as what I’ve said there is true. If it’s in relation to Isak I stated facts there too, he initially flopped at Dortmund, they sent him to the Erdivise on loan where he was a success but not enough for them to consider keeping him. They sold him to Sociedad where after a managerial change he was shifted to the wing in his final season there, hence the 6 goal return that season. Thera were reasons other clubs had looked at him, but decided against a purchase.

Every fan in Germany who watched the lad. Bayern wanted him rather than Ekitike and Šeško who both also played in the Bundesliga. He won player of the tournament in the U21 Euros. He is a player on the up, unlike Isak who was damaged goods when we bought him, having been let go by Dortmund and even shunted out to the wing during his last season in Spain

We didn’t sell them Haaland (we can admit he's streets ahead now that Isak's gone) and I’m not convinced Isak actually pushes the needle that much further for them than Ekitike already has done. I actually reckon them replacing Konate with Guehi providing it goes through will be more important business for them.

Were we realistically going for the title this year like? You forgot to log off and back on as TBG?

I think the only thing he lacks is physicality, hopefully a move to Lgue 1 helps him develop that side of his game

Id argue the most promising young striker in Europe for over £10m less than both Ekitike and Šeško represents decent value like

I’m going to stick my neck out and say Isak won’t be the player he was here at Liverpool. Not because he's a bad player but because Liverpool aren’t going to mould their whole team to suit and feed him like Howe did here. Factor in bigger ego's like Salah and Ekitike and there's no guarantee it works out for him. im still not entirely sold on Slot myself either, I mean their best player these past two games has been the one Slot bought Wirtz to replace

You forgot Longstaff and given we didn’t spend anything in January Miggy too

Go and watch the compilation clips of Woltemade last season and in the U21 euros. We have that player and n already and just need to integrate him in the PL

The thing is if we’ve negotiated that he doesn’t get his loyalty bonuses as is being reported. Then to the club we’ve effectively made the same profit in PSR as if we’d sold him for £150m. This way both sides of this horrific mess can push the optics that they’ve won. Liverpool haven’t “overpaid” but Newcastle effectively have the same headroom cleared as if we’d sold at that price.

Was it not the complete opposite? I seem to recall he was liking posts relating to Isak being a snake etc

Who is not likely to be registered given he’s effectively a training cone

Right I get people's disappointment, but this selling undervalue stuff really needs a reality check. If we get £130m we've doubled our money after having three good years out of a player, that if we're being honest could only contribute to our system for 55-60 minutes. We’ve also potentially replaced someone we bought on the dip, with arguably the hottest young striker in Europe, who we’ve managed to secure on the up, for only a few million more 3 years later. I think history is going to show the club has done well here myself.

Personally I think it sounds better than Elitike+£50m

Why do people keep repeating this man? Eddie would be bored to fuck with International football and I doubt his detail orientated approach would be great when you don’t get significant time on the training pitch either

No, that’s widely been debunked. There are court cases challenging some of this stuff, but I doubt Liverpool would’ve been keen on him blowing up the £300m+ of investment this summer either

The only credible (sic) rumour I’ve seen in the past 24 hours was that lad from Roma on loan with an option. Maybe I’m just ridiculously naive but we didn’t sanction the rats sale without something else being close
