Ellis H Posted yesterday at 21:33 Share Posted yesterday at 21:33 All the more reason to go for a proper striker in the summer. Losing Isak for at least a month would be far more catastrophic than any other player with the current squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted yesterday at 21:50 Share Posted yesterday at 21:50 It feels like every second or third Isak match involves a "not quite 100%" quote, which is concerning. We've been lucky that he's just about stayed on this side of the line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago Murphy assist, Isak goal has happened 7 times in the PL this season, making them the leagues most dangerous duo. Only Beardsley and Cole have combined for more in the top flight (9 in 93/94) for us, can they beat that record? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been lucky that he's just about stayed on this side of the line. Yeah. Given the way we play we desperately need an option off the bench and someone to give him a day off every now and then. After RW I really do think a backup striker is the second priority in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I think you’re wrong re a new RW & back up CF Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s mainly because on the whole, when we have needed an option of the bench the games have all been tight. Don’t think he trust Osula yet to not give it away in a bad area.

Don’t think he trust Osula yet to not give it away in a bad area. I would agree with this if we're talking about a young full back, or even a midfielder - but high up the pitch? I think he might just have a blindspot. We've seen this for a few seasons also. You can see Isak can barely jog, let alone effectively harry, but he's kept on for the full 90 (when we had a slightly more spritely Wilson or young players who literally just needed to harry opposition).
