OpenC Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 Just now, Kanj said: Ah yes, a want away player who skips his teams preseason trip, which took months to plan and prepare for, must find a working solution with his current employer or it won’t work. Novel stuff David. Aye, masterful reading of the psychology behind the situation from Ornstein. I hadn't realised there might still be a bit of fallout to negotiate, thank god the press are there to keep us all right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly its times like this when I miss just no social media and reports in a paper I could chose not to buy or teletext i could skip over. I deleted X for my own sanity about a week ago.

Toon No9 Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 Would love to be a fly on the wall in Eddies office to hear his and Isaks conversation. I hope Eddie has invited Amanda to convince Isak to stay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like wider society, the establishment have to hoard all of the wealth and anyone perceived in the middle class must give up theirs to feed the divide even further. The entitlement and the subservience by the client media in football is no different to politics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be interested to hear who you think ios a good owner? Perhaps Tony Bloom who buys in playerrs with a view to selling them on for a profit? Maybe Todd Boehly who buys everything that moves? The American's at Liverpool, who wanted to create a breakaway league? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 All I want to see at this point is that the club hold firm to their valuation of c.£150m. Ideally we go out and sign our two strikers, keep Isak until the valuation is met, if it's not he stays and trains alone away from the squad if he remains uninterested in playing for us. If we sell for cheap it's a considerable failure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duo Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 Everyone is expecting Isak to go - PIF would show a statement of intent that they can't be bullied by keeping him. We have no reason to sell - it is as simple as that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCormick Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 (edited) We’re being bullied into losing our best player here when we hold all the cards. We said he’s not for sale earlier… so we should continue to say he’s not for fucking sale. I don’t care about Isak’s little tantrum, he’s got 3 years left; get on with it until we say so.

My view is this will have been delegated to those running the football club, so the decision would be made by whoever is on the board. Howe would have major input I'd have thought, depends how much patience he has with Isak and if he feels he will be 100% committed this season.

If we end up selling it's not because we've been bullied IMO. It's because we think it's the best option all things considered. We can't put this at anyone else's door, that's the bottom line.

duo Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 For me the club comes first and the club benefits far more with him staying rather than leaving regardless of who we can bring in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
