What on Earth are Liverpool doing?! £120 million 

 

This reeks of "we tried" before they then sign a Mateta. They're just making a bunch of noise through these journalists and aren't even making any bids 

 

It looks as though Liverpool are trying to call our bluff on the £150 million plus fee claims, as far as what we want, and they are finding out that we weren't joking around.

 

I also don't think Ekitike really interests Liverpool, otherwise I doubt he would have progressed so far in potentially signing for us if Liverpool had been in contact with his people over the summer as a potential option for them.

 

This is looking like desperation from Liverpool. It's so weird man. Like they really thought we'd accept this £120 million package.

honestly they should go after Ollie Watkins

He's 29 and obviously won't be cheap. He's bad business basically. 

[aussiemag]

A proven top premier league goal scorer, with an all round game at age 25 is worth  at least 180 mil in this market. When Ekitike is worth 75 mill and defensive mids are 110 mill.

I’m just saying names that aren’t our main man

Regardless of the fee, selling him to Liverpool would be devastating.

It would be inexcusable to be frank. If he wants to leave its fine however it needs to be abroad.

This is another thing. The deals that have happened so far this summer, have only really served to push Isak's fee even higher if anything.

 

And here's Liverpool communicating that they're ready to pay £120 million if we're interested in selling. As though they're doing us some sort of favour!

Liverpool want Isak eurgh

Selling Isak next summer makes far more sense. They'd likely be more viable suitors, meaning a bidding war would allow us to still bank north of £100m+. Ideally we'd also be able to sell him abroad as well, and not to any of the insufferable septic 6

There’s very few options abroad. Real Madrid are stacked, Barcelona are broke. Bayern have Kane. It’s basically do PSG want him.

Real have who upfront? The guy who doesn't want to play centrally?

 

When has Barca being broke stopped them?

 

Kane is old. 

 

Options exist and regardless of that, we shouldn't be selling to anyone in this country.

The athletic have reposted the nonsense article from earlier. Enjoy laughing at this excerpt. 

 

So we value Yamal at £200m, whereas Isak would be closer to £100m. As an attacker, we tend to see scoring rates peak at around 25 or 26. It’s not like what it used to be in the days of Michael Owen, where players would fall off a cliff in their late twenties, and we might expect someone like Isak with a reasonably good injury record to sustain form into the future — but he’s not a real upstart any more.”

 

These factors mean that Isak’s value — around £100m, by consensus — might be affordable to some clubs. But the transfer landscape and Newcastle’s resolve means that his price — possibly over £150m — is borderline unreachable

Would hate to jinx this, but my take is we're in a really strong position here and have played a bit of a blinder. 

 

We've forced Liverpool to show their hand, whilst not actually shutting the door to the sale, meaning Isak can't hold us to account for preventing a move he may or may not want. 

 

It's tied both Liverpools and Isak's (agent) hands here. 

 

This is why I think they are releasing info about being willing to pay 120 if we pick up the phone, I feel like theyre trying to publicly put us as the reason this isnt/wont progressing, when the reality is they wont spend the £150m

[Sibierski]

Probably posted already, but Romano is not covering himself in glory here. No bid, won’t bid unless we say we are open to selling, which we’ve said we’re not  

 

Either Isak agent is paying Romano big money to run with this to help his negotiations for a strong deal, or it’s been a poor summer for Romano and he needs the clicks / traffic.

Absolute bollocks that. People kiss the arses on Romano and Ornstein, but you can tell they are on the payroll of certain clubs. Italian cunt will be back peddling when he realises Isak is going nowhere this season. 

[SUPERTOON]

I imagine most of this is coming from Isak’s agent. Personally think there is a decent chance it happens if Isak is wanting away.

Not at 120 it doesn't.

Don't fuck with the Saudis, they won't be bullied into anything. Either by Liverpool or Isak's agent.

Hopefully not, we obviously have no idea on what we would sell for though.

[Schecter]

Ornstein’s rep has taken a hit for me from this saga.

No chance he will be leaving this summer unless a stupid bid nearer 200 million comes in. Liverpool will not do that.

You have what seems like an extremely high opinion of ownership.
