clintdempsey Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 He's had a release clause for what, £75-77m? Getting the deal done for £58-59m seems like rather good value. There is a HUGE upside to him as a player in that he's only getting better. I can see him becoming a superstar under EH tbh. Also nice AF to get another Swede in.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 8 hours ago, Nobody said: Isak turned down a move to Real Madrid (just after Ødegaard had went there at a similar age) at the age of 17 to go to Dortmund because of their record of bringing young players on. Of course, it didn't work out well at Dortmund, but shows what kind of character he is. Seems a very intelligent guy. Worryingly middle class mind, maybe a better fit for Southampton.

Klaus Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) The prices are increasing every season, so how can anyone know if we are paying over the odds!?

Not double barrelled enough (Walker-Peters, Ward-Prowse-Tory). No wonder Che Adams is on the way out - if he was Chetwyn Fred-Adams he’d be a guaranteed starter.

He’s one of the highest rated under 23 strikers in the world.

Happinesstan Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 38 minutes ago, The College Dropout said: Interesting if we've pursued both of them when we might only want one. Unless we plan to play JP wide right, I don't think we need him and Isak. Isak has played RW 3 times in his career according to transfermarkt. He played 34 games as the right-sided CF, in a two, last season. Which is kind of the same role but with 50% more responsibility. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Pinching myself at this signing. It's the first one where it truly feels like PIF mean business. Trips, Bruno and Botman all excellent signings but this one feels like that tier above. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ask most La Liga fans, they’ll tell you we’ve massively overpaid. If it was up to La Real fans, they would have been satisfied with a 40m fee for him. The extra 20m or so is for hype and the fact that he’s a big name. I’m all for it btw, shows we mean business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
