Lish007 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I think he looks mint. Sometimes the ball just sticks to him. Against SW he was the star 60m man in the line up so the defenders literally hounded him out. With Miggy, Wilson, ASM, Bruno, Willock, Joelinton, Trips in the team, others won't be able to put 3 on him.. I would love love to see ASM and Isak together. ASM always gets surrounded by players and can't always find space but imagine when Isak is in it too and they don't know where to go, and both have speed and dribbling prowess! Will be exciting to watch..I hope they have chemistry in training! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Most of you haven’t really seen anything yet of what he’s capable of. Whether he can reach his potential and find consistency is a different matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Lad hasn’t played anything like enough minutes to make any sort of prediction - I very much liked what I did see in those first few games, and the Sheff Wed game was the rusty performance of a player who’d had a significant break from football due to injury.

ExiledGeordie Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I think he’ll get 25 mins or so tonight and then might well start v Fulham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 He is clearly quick. Obvious to see on his debut when running through and just when he was closing players down. Tired late on. The next two games he never really had a chance to open up against deep defences. But he did go clear against Palace when he fluffed his chance. Thought on Saturday. He looked like he was either being told to treat the half like a friendly to ease back in, which I highly doubt. Or that he was still not fully opening up. Which may well have been the case, if what people say about quad injuries is correct and what I mentioned earlier in the thread. He was still lively and involved in most of our good play first half. Probably should have scored the header. But people going on like the second one was a sitter. When it clearly wasn’t. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 The angle for his second chance made it anything but a sitter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundhog63 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 FWIW I thought he looked mint. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingxlnc Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 He had two great chances to score, Wood would have been nowhere near them. Isak is defo quality and will show it, confident about that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 That second chance is never a sitter ffs. It’s just at Liverpool he fucking roofed it and didn’t get the height or angle he wanted it this past weekend Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
80 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I'm surprised at people saying he should've scored the header, I was impressed at what he got on it personally, it was an awkward ball for a standing jump. It was a great save. I don't think anyone including Wilson would've done much better. It was 3rd division opposition obviously, but main thing I was impressed by was the intelligence of his movement. Could tell he was class even if not at the top of his game. Reminded me of Kluivert, now I think about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Neither chance was easy. Definitely didn’t expect him to score the second one due to the angle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhtoon Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I thought both chances weren't totally clear cut, though interestingly... "Alexander Isak admits that his lack of sharpness after being sidelined since September played a part in his two big FA Cup chances against the Owls. When asked about building back up to full fitness and getting sharp again, Isak told ChronicleLive: "I think the sharpness will help. These are chances I'd usually score (at Sheff Wed)." Love his confidence to be honest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhtoon Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 On his position... Isak said: "I am a centre-forward. That is my position and where I am best. Then I think I have quite a wide game, so could do other things as well, so that is not for me to decide." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why settle for one? You could have, Bruno in the middle, Botman at the back and Isak in attack (front). Thought you had big brain energy, Ian. I am dissapoint.
