Zero Posted July 24, 2025 Share Posted July 24, 2025 Normally a player will only go on strike when he has already kinda agreed terms with the next suitor, I.e. he isn’t afraid to burn the bridge. If it’s just the new contract not enough to satisfy his demands, he will not go that far, probably just continue to say he is injured / not feeling well. His agent very likely has agreed terms with a club, just not sure it’s Liverpool or others. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted July 24, 2025 Share Posted July 24, 2025 1 minute ago, Beren said: Based on Twitter crackheads and forum injury experts? His agent could just be negotiating for a deserved pay rise. And even if he does want to leave to compete for a Galactico style club (no timeframe stated either from the crackheads) - yes it'd be a shame, but there's no thanks for: humiliating Arsenal, the coldest celebration ever or scoring the only trophy-winning goal of our lifetimes? Just name-calling? I just think jumping to calling him every name under the sun at a point when we remain so in the dark is not right. People can react how they want, I suppose. Wouldn’t say refusing to go on preseason trips is putting us in the dark, like. It’s more than clearly black and white. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do it I'll hold the club completely responsible My gut feel is that the only reason we would sell him to Liverpool is because Howe wants him out of our club and Liverpool is the only option. If Howe insists he stays then he stays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
