On Hope’s spin, it does sound like you are right but I still think Eddie is in charge and players have less leeway than you think. Their contracts don’t allow them just to take the piss completely and no one at the club wants the situation to get out of hand. I’ve no doubt Eddie is in charge. He’s played it right from day 1. My whole point was Isak’s behaviour was a disgrace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted August 3, 2025 Share Posted August 3, 2025 1 hour ago, TRon said: Just read the actual statements put out on his behalf. All he's said is he'd like to explore other options. Of course he'll come back and train. He's not daft enough to burn his bridges, Liverpool might not even come up with the money for all he knows. Tbf he's close to 'burning bridges' already by refusing to go on the pre season with the squad. Absolute shit house move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted August 3, 2025 Share Posted August 3, 2025 Also got to remember that this summer was the prelude to (arguably) his most important season in his career. He's 25 now and hitting his peak, he's got a World Cup to look forward to in June/July and he chooses NOW to go on strike/feign injury/kick up a stink and force a move though? He's completely fucked his pre-season up by going on like a little cunt and he's going to have to get up to speed after the season has started. He probably won't give the first fuck but it's incredibly unprofessional and detrimental to his development and career to go on like this right now. Good pros know how important a solid preseason is and he's chosen to completely skewer his own because he's had his head turned and taken some horrific advice. Wouldn't be at all surprised if he has a very very mediocre season whatever shirt the cunt is wearing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted August 3, 2025 Share Posted August 3, 2025 full quotes from the article fwiw: Quote You have to earn the right to train with us. 'We are Newcastle United. The player has a responsibility here to be part of a team and part of a squad - you have to act in the right way. So that is also at play here. 'We will make sure that any player does that to earn the right to train with the group. No player can expect to act poorly and train with the group as normal.’ ‘Of course I'd like him to be (there), but whether he will I don’t know at this moment in time,’ said Howe. ‘We have been here with the time difference, preparing for training and for games. Other people have been dealing with that situation back at home.’ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
