Man U would be another team who might like him, but if we can match the wages in the next couple of years then obviously no player would want to be anywhere else.

Expand Manu just bought their on striker project for 70m. City got Haaland as you say. Pool spent 70/80m on their own striker project. He not going anywhere for some time.

Kanj Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 If you combine a current transfer value of Isak, Bruno, Tonali, Joelinton, Gordon and Botman you have the price our club was sold for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 We’re going to lose a great player to a bigger club eventually imo. Obviously this is a great situation and we can match wages, but we can’t realistically offer a league or CL win, and perhaps more importantly, we’re not a club like Real Madrid which a lot of these players will have grown up dreaming of playing for. The upside to that is if it does happen, it will be for silly money, and I trust those in charge to reinvest the funds wisely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say "that one season" though. What about last season when Isak was the best thing since sliced bread but had a worse goal contribution rate per 90 than Anthony Martial?

I never lose. Expand Stats are always relative. Especially as he had scored around 20 the season before prior to the change in setup at Sociedad. Anyway ... Just watching him, especially for Sweden, and his combination of physical gifts and skillset, the uncertainty around him was perplexing. Ultimately though, we are going to benefit big time, and so I'm definitely not complaining. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
