AngelofTheFourth Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 He takes much of the blame for why we are in this mess. All that drama to go to a club who may fail to get UCL when he joins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 We can't just go round blaming losing 1 player, Brentford lost their main 2, Sunderland built a new team, Bournemouth lost players. We bought shit, the style is shit, the formation doesn't work and the manager has no clue what to do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Cannot just keep blaming Isak for us fucking it up. Just look at Brentford, constantly losing their key players and they keep replacing them well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GideonShandy Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I think my favourite highlight of this season so far is him breaking his leg. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountain Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 (edited) People need to get over Isak, he's always injured and might never be the same after yet another injury. Our issue is that we had 200 million pounds and could have signed like 10 players. Edited February 8 by Mountain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can feel my league ambition being reduced to Liverpool not getting CL, even if it means Villa, Man U and Chelsea. I think Isak cost us four points or so at the beginning of the season, possibly six, but that is all. I'm happy with Wolte and Wissa given the struggle we had to sign other players, regret the Wissa injury (and Osula's) and just wish that the strikers we bought could have been integrated a bit quicker in a more settled way. We lost to Brentford because we handed them three, not because we only scored two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Displayname Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Just lost at home to a team that lost both their best forwards and their manager this summer. Any talk of Isak's departure being to blame for our current situation should be put to bed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I think the real cock up was that when Liverpool presented us with an opportunity to have a free run at Etikite we instead dug our heels in. in hindsight that did so much damage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy literally dragged our summer through the mud and takes his portion of blame for the turmoil and the over the barrel position we found ourselves in. The club could have handled it better and been more realistic in what was likely but saying Isak has no blame is wild. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erikse Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 (edited) Interesting how Brentford keeps having success with cheap players from different league that we've never heard of. Then some are bigging up our scouting since we tried to sign the hottest Premier League prospects that even the cartel clubs wanted, and then subsequently panicking since we didn't have other ideas.

Erikse Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 (edited) Heck, even under the Mike Ashley era we picked up Ben Arfa, Sissoko, Wijnaldum, Enrique, Cisse, Tiote, Cabaye, Santon, Schar, Joelinton and ASM. All bargains from other leagues, with no top club hijacking the deal. We did well with that earlier with Bruno, Botman, Isak and Tonali, but despite our huge success with it, we seem to be increasingly more interested in PL players.
