Without bias... I don't think Liverpool can actually afford him.

 

Similar to other summers there will be a lot of noise and then another club will come in and buy their targets.

 

They don't buy the finished articles, they buy those just below.

 

Said it before, it's not just the fee.

 

20% signing on fee and £400k a week (of you're breaking records on fees you've got to pay the wages). That's £50m cash on the first year after whatever transfer fee installment there is and a £50m hit to PSR every year for one player. 

 

Then you've already got a rebuild at Liverpool and Arsenal being linked with midfielders which takes any English club out.

 

Barcelona will sign Salah, Madrid don't need him this summer and Isak doesn't seem the type to play in the French league.

 

Next summer is the first dangerous one if he doesn't get a new deal. But i see a massive Isak number 9 campaign from Adidas in the summer for the new shirt which will pay a big chunk of the deal he will sign

Can't stop watching the second goal. The way he peels away from VVD and anticipates correctly where Murph's nod-down will end up is just sensational.

Post shearer, Remy was the best we’ve had imo but isak is another level to him. People can point to stats for Haaland and that’s fine, but you also have to contextualize the teams they are in. Isak imo is the better player and can actually score outside the box

New contract offer supposedly in 200-240k p/w range.

 

Read today that he's Yasir's favourite player and there's no way he's letting him go. So not that surprised to read this today.

If he said this it's because he wants him on toast again

Him trolling VVD like that would actually be a more realistic scenario, like way more.:lol:

He didnt need to anticipate anything, to give Murphy his dues. Murphy knew he'd pull back because he knows that's how good Isak is, and nodded a perfect header back and down for him. It was a fantastic assist.

I have seen a video where it sounds / looks like Van Disney says 'see you in pre season' or something like that to Isak

Assuming it’s a given, but is he in the Sweden squad ?

Aye - they've only got friendlies against Luxembourg and Northern Ireland though so with any luck he'll only play an hour over both games, or he'll do what Gyokeres has done and pull out. Krafu not in this one either.

He’s not going anywhere is he 😀

“There’s not much to say, really. I’ve commented on my situation and my security in Newcastle several times. It’s been written how much I love the city and the club, how well I feel there. I’m not thinking about the future. I just want to perform for Newcastle. Now we won the cup, but we want to finish strong and reach the Champions League games. That’s where my focus lies.”

 

“Things like that can’t be described. I think you can only “imagine” how it feels. But it’s an incredible feeling. Wembley packed with all the Newcastle fans there. I’m looking forward to seeing what Newcastle is like as a city after that. I haven’t been back yet.”

23 goals in all comps now?  2 more to equal last season's tally.  

 

His performances and consistency have been better than last season, mind.  30 goals please. 

 

And we still don't know how to properly get the ball to him yet.

I think PIF would want to hang on to him for as long as possible given the profile he gives the club.  I think the only way Isak leaves is if he himself agitates for a move.

One of the most emotional parts of the celebration footage is his reaction to the FT whistle, for me. He's such a cool customer who knows he's good enough to reach the very top, but he goes mental like a fan at that whistle.
