He is suspended in play-offs if he gets a booking.

Yeah, they're actually dogshit. Comical that Isak left for this clown show.

To be fair I'm impressed by recruitement of these pricks, Ayari wasn't even a standout player in the Swedish league and most were shocked when he was bought for £4 million. Now he starts more or less every game and doing well.

Well, 2nd not looking better so far.

Seems we maybe caught them on a bad day, their performances seem to vary more than any other PL team. Lets go!

Like 95% chance they'll make it to the play offs due to their Nations League campaign. Although, it'll just be more losses. How so much talent can be so shit is astonishing.

Starting to doubt that and its not even the rat's fault(Well, besides from choosing Liverpool). The service he received with us is godly compared to what Liverpool gives him, their attack seems abysmal overall. His confidence will be knackered with these sort of games as well, so when he finally get to touch the ball it'll likely be shit regardless.

I don't like this because I have a bad tendency of liking players and want to defend them when I can feel their frustration, I'll need to stop watching Liverpool games or this will turn poorly.

Salah is going to be Isak's escape goat. Man have he been awful.

Think he'll struggle a lot as well, their system doesn't fit him at all. Does he even have 1 xG from the games he played?

Shit in the air.

Isak surely missing the service he got here, coz he is getting 0 over there.

Think he'll do better against better opposition annoyingly, his worst kind of games have always been when the team he is in is the one with a lot of possession, with us and before us. When he gets to counter or given more space he'll be deadly as usual.

I think he'll be fine. The entire team just likely need to adept to that he doesn't move and play the same way as another striker did. Forgot the guys name.

Really well done on the goal and looks promising overall.

To be fair, that was one season he did that. The season before that he scored 17 non penalty goals, and the season before that 10 in the league + was the top scorer in Copa del rey. And he wasn't even their starter that season.

I don't doubt that he was unmotivated the last 2 months, and it'd make sense with start of the season as well as he was apparently fuming about the contract according to Craig. Regardless, Edwards should probably do the smart thing here and shut up about it, as regardless what one might think, there is no way to prove it either way.

Dont know where this is coming from, was some other guy on ESPN talking about this yesterday as well that he believed it was management that had rejected sim the pre tour season and training with the squad etc as they knew his stance, kind of throwing Isak under the bus so they'd look better sort of stuff. Believe its bollocks. Truth will come out sooner or later regardless, might also have signed those contracts companies usually put on departed workers where they are not allowed to speak what have happened within in the company for 6-12 months. While I don't believe a word of it, I'd be beyond disappointed if there any truth to it.

Yeah, I honestly don't really care if the players are mates after this, its only natural by the amount of time they spent with each other. That said, I thought Gordon and Isak disliked each other because their chemistry was so poor and they never passed the ball to each other. So that is funny.

I'd argue something was going even before that. One of the reasons I think so is because of the Carabao Cup finals and the parade. Despite being a large contributor to us winning the trophy, he kept a very low profile in the celebrations, as if avoiding attention and forming a deeper bond between him and fans. Sure, he have an introverted personality but you'd expect him to take a big role. Not to mention the Van dijk and Slot interactions.

At least the last month seem to have taken out a bigger toll on him than us, god does the rat look mentally exhausted. He looks like he need be in coma for a week to regain normal functions.

Yes, I don't like the trajectory of where this thread is going. Far too toxic and now people starting to believe unconfirmed rumours it seems like..

LMAO, Him failing his medical would be the gold medal. Can't even imagine the chaos LOL. But at least it might give me some sort of joy

Fair enough but its also just statistics, something that is not added in to this is that defenders feared the C*nt and marked him tightly, giving a lot more space to our wingers. I wouldn't be surprised to see Gordon, Murphy and Barnes struggle more this season as they potentially pay less attention to the CF.

I don't understand how hard it can be to find a backup striker really but it seems we gone completely blind by anything that isn't EPL until the last week. There is a whole world out there, with plenty of good to decent leagues, some fucking club must have a established or promising striker that is better than Osula.
