nufcjb Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I think Wilson may have booked his ticket to the World Cup with his performance today. Which brings me to this lad. If we can get him properly fit, trained and fitted into our team setup during the break, he can be this season's Cisse for the second part of the season. Remember how Pappis came, he took the league by storm after Ba had started the season so well for us? Hopefully Isak can replicate that and PL defenders won't know what's going to hit them. We'll have a Plan B that most teams won't be able to figure out so quickly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexf Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) I'm not sure where Eddie will look to slot him in when fit. We haven't had the benefit of all our fowards being fit at the same time yet. Wilson, Saint-Maximin, Isak and Almiron (who has made himself a guaranteed starter in current form) I imagine the way Eddie likes to phase new players in then Isak I think is likely going to be the impact sub for a little while until injury or loss of form to one of the others. However the prospect of being able to fit all 4 into a formation at some point if they were all in form is mouth watering.?

ASM has had fitness issues so I wouldn’t be at all surprised at some point to see Isak playing that left side. The key point is it just gives us another option to keep playing with intensity. He can play any of the front 3 positions though admittedly not the same type of player as Wilson through the middle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 If/when he's back and fit for us after the WC break, he'll be like a new signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on Maxi’s fitness but assuming no injuries he’ll be coming on for either Miggy, ASM or Wilson as an attacking option off the bench to start with which probably suits him. I think with away games he might see more minutes with Wilson’s minutes being managed to avoid injury and given his style probably suits the counter attack more away from home. Moving forwards he’ll be pressing for a start either left or right vs Miggy and ASM which keeps them on their toes to play well.

MrRaspberryJam Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Sell him. No longer needed now everyone is absolutely class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 He’ll be eased in but unfortunately it’ll be for Miggy (who I fucking love) because Miggy will come off the boil at some point. I really hope Howe finds a new spot for Miggy though, somewhere in that midfield three behind the three forward players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Not sure I can see a time where Howe drops Miggy if he's fit, his intensity and workrate epitomises the teams ethos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I still fully believe he will take Wilson’s place. Callum will undoubtedly get another injury at some point and when that happens Isak will make the number 9 his own and we’ll never look back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you’re right to a point as Wilson has shown how easily he picks up knocks. To keep him healthy I think you’ll see Isak eased into greater minutes through the middle particularly away from home as I’ve said. Very exciting to see what Isak can do and I’m sure he’ll learn loads from Wilson to improve his game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solitude20 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 (edited) Or we might switch to 4-4-2. It was Eddie’s favorite tactic, and Isak can play the deep lying forward role very well. 4-4-2 can be very powerful with all the high pressing and constant off the ball movement that we play.

Chicken Dancer Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Ridiculously keep forgetting about this lad. Should be on 3 in 3 too. Can't wait to see him in the second half of the season. His pace will be lush. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
