The press have been wanting this story all summer

Well this was always the risk- missing out in target after target cannot have helped. Though clearly been tapped up, if Slot spoke to Ekitike he'll have spoke to Isak as well.

I'm calling it now- I don't see how they can afford it without offloading him and we need a striker

Aye and I bet Nunez is part of that package

Cheers PIF

Mitchell not giving him a new contract has well and truly come back to bite us

Whether he wants to or not - it is his value

For reference Coutinho went for £142 mill - 7 years ago !! It has to smash that.

I agree but at the same time it's not the best example to the other team mates who may be thinking about a move away for more ££££. The rot could set in.

Just not to a PL team please

He is not in IT man - and he's not exactly poorly paid. If the club gave Isak £300k it would turn the heads of other players in the squad questioning their worth.

I am not saying we shouldn't up his wages but come to some sort of agreement - increase them as much as possible and agree with him he can go next season. There is a right and wrong way to go about things.

He has three years left on his contract so we have the stronger hand to dictate the price. Club just has to hold firm.

Just expect a bit of integrity from a player for a club who had revived his career to make him one of the most sought after strikers in the world.

If he wants £300k - he's basically forcing the clubs hand to sell him. Honestly - how anyone can side with Isak on this is beyond me.

Isak is his own man - the right way is to say to Eddie I will stay one more season to give you time to re-built. This is pathetic.

I truly believe Eddie thought he'd stay but 'if the reports are true' -Alex has basically stabbed him in the back

£200 mil min - has to be transformational cash.

Spot on

He can do that here - also there are ways of doing it. Utter shite spitting your dummy out 5 mins before the transfer window ends and leaving the club in disarray. I think Eddie deserves better - his career was going nowhere before Eddie revived it. None of the big clubs were willing to take the risk. He can wait one more year - do it properly and give the club the 'time' to find a replacement.

It is saying I want to be sold

It's basically killed off our transfer window as it's going to impact attracting players to the club

Eddie has revived his career and his behaviour is poor

Agents negotiate contracts - not players. This wouldn't stop Isak travelling.
