Abacus Posted July 23, 2025 Share Posted July 23, 2025 Not sure exactly what's changed, but I was really excited when I thought he was about to sign for us to play with Isak. A masterstroke, in fact. But now, I think he's going to be absolutely dreadful and probably wear a stupid hat or something when he signs for them. Bullet dodged. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam P Posted July 23, 2025 Share Posted July 23, 2025 Liverpool wanted Isak or Ekitike. Their top two targets. Newcastle’s number one priority is to keep Isak. Newcastle bid just under the release clause for Ekitike. Liverpool move very quickly make a lot of noise via the media that they are going to buy both and then buy Ekitike. If the story finishes with Isak starting up front for us next season, I don’t know why people would think we used Barella to buy Tonali but won’t entertain the idea the idea that Ekitike was used to smoke out Liverpool and help us achieve what is surely our number one priority. Instead of buying Isak they buy Ekitike. In my world we don’t look like we were pushed around but knew what we were doing. That might be the answer to my question of course 😆 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny36 Posted July 23, 2025 Share Posted July 23, 2025 Im not even sure we even wanted Ekitike, Joao Pedro was our #1 target..We were hardly going to buy both Pedro & Ekitike.Anyway hes gone to Liverpool now and we wont be going back for him a 3rd or 4th time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, now Isak will stay at least next season, be fully engaged (not on some work to rule agent imposed bullshit) even without the more than double my salary stuff which is being touted around.

I never really hate any other real football fans. Yes there are idiots in any fanbase but by and large the regular match going ones are sound in real life. It's always the online contingent wrapped up in twitter wars that are the worst. I've travelled about a bit and never seen a city like ours where the club and the football is quite so much the heartbeat of the place. Never been to Glasgow though, so there's that. Goldfish bowl or something that should spur you on instead? Think you need players that get it. Think Bruno does for instance, and that's why their character is so important.
