midds Posted August 31, 2025 Share Posted August 31, 2025 Wonder what will happen to the fees we'll be looking at tomorrow?? as we discount our prize asset... Couldn't have got this more wrong if they'd tried. We look thick as fuck and we're also short as the prices go up. They're fucking morons Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I really don't know what to say tbh. That's the biggest problem with this, it's the domino effect it has the next time someone wants to buy one of the key players. I can see the “issue”, but I don’t believe it’ll likely rear its head particularly often. A player has to have a poor mindset in the first place to ever consider doing what Isak has done… I don’t envisage it becoming a regular occurrence.

mikejaxer Posted August 31, 2025 Share Posted August 31, 2025 Surprised we didn't just give him away for free, fucking soft cunts. Do we want to hand them Gordon and Tonali as well? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggies Posted August 31, 2025 Share Posted August 31, 2025 Regardless of what signings we may or not make tomorrow, we have shown we’re a club that can be bullied. Isak this summer. Who will it be next summer? Can you blame Tonali for wanting a move next summer if this how we behave as a club? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted August 31, 2025 Share Posted August 31, 2025 (edited) I know it's early but being a negative cunt is not in my wheelhouse (mostly). So with that, I can only assume we've got a 2nd striker lined up and we've pulled the trigger on Isak so that we can act freely. Here's hoping we sign someone exciting. Either way, glad this treasonous cunt is gone. Good riddance. Edited August 31, 2025 by Casey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaj Posted August 31, 2025 Share Posted August 31, 2025 I think the most frustrating thing for me is, we could have agreed on £130m a month ago. They were at £110m, we wanted £150m so realistically we were always going to meet in the middle. That would have given us more time to replace and would have removed this cloud over the club and we may well have more than 2 points to show for it.

Yes we haven't quite got the fee that been said we wanted, but it doesn't mean they chucked in all in ffs. I’m not stressing about the Isak fee, but I’ll take PIF more seriously when they can be arsed to hire a CEO and DoF. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny you say this because this is exactly what people thought about Isak before he decided to be a cunt and get his own way. And in his eyes he did the right thing and won.

If that does end up being the case then fair enough, but I personally have my doubts because it's seen to be effective why wouldn't they do it?

Jonas Posted August 31, 2025 Share Posted August 31, 2025 (edited) We all knew we'd be selling players this summer if we hadn't qualified for the CL and on an on-going basis because of PSR. We know others clubs are in the same boat and that this isn't some PIF hoodwinking scam. Villa are in the same boat minus players going on strike. Its not McKeag revisited. Surely we knew that whilst desireable Isak being left to rot was unprecedented and highly unlikely especially in a PSR climate. 120-140m for someone who may very well not play all year? Nobody else wants or can afford him, we cant make clubs be interested and able to afford him and snatch him from Liverpool, whilst desireable. We talk all the time about who PSR hinders and helps and what a crock of shit it is, with us being at the top of the list for clubs it holds back Surely we knew were not competing with these clubs anytime soon because of that and most of us have agreed we've done great to get CL twice and win a cup given the circumstances. We've been pipped to signings all summer by cartel clubs as if any evidence of any of that was needed. The predictions for this season probably average at around 6th-8th. I just don't get the hysterics as if all of this has just dropped now. other than it being 20m less than we wanted. A previous poster is probably right, people need to move on to something else because Its not going to get better than you've had it these last few years unless the rules change. This is the limit for us and everybody else outside the top6. I know I'm considering it and I'm not even one of those in hysterics. But am certainly not blaming the club.

Fuck the price, which is bad enough, but it will blow up our season if we don't get another striker in. Surely to God, one is lined up!?? We’ve got to have, that was the line re the conditions for Isak’s sale. I’m not as upset as others re selling to Liverpool, but if we’ve cut our own feet off to get him out then that’s on us.

What £55m more than Nick W. Which we are likely to spend more than to get another striker in. £140m fine. A little bend. But £25m discount? 3 years left on the contract? It’s weak. We’ve been cucked. From my view this is a major blow to the strength of the project. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John P Posted August 31, 2025 Share Posted August 31, 2025 If we're willing to sell at £125/130m, why didn't we just fucking negotiate that with them a month ago when they offered £110m. We could have had a replacement in for the start of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
