The College Dropout Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 31 minutes ago, The Prophet said: Interesting if we've pursued both of them when we might only want one. Unless we plan to play JP wide right, I don't think we need him and Isak. Isak has played RW 3 times in his career according to transfermarkt.

I still really hope we get JP as it he'd transform our attacking options even further but would understand if that's changed. Exciting end to the window which is what we all secretly wanted! I don't think anyone was hiding what they wanted mate. Just didn't expect it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazarus Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Sounds like we are trying to get this ASAP, and understantably so. Ive said before - it must be mad being a footballer at times. Youre either at home resting or at the training ground and suddenly your told that a bid has been accepted and theres a plane waiting to take you 1000 miles north (ish) where you are prodded and poked by a stange medical team then unveiled as a new signing where you have to say "Great to be here" a hundred times to a gaggle of press. Players who move around a lot must be used to it but its nuts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 This ticks all of my transfer window boxes. A quality player out of no where and kept under wraps until it was more or less done. Lovely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have a situation where the likes of Bruno and Isak line up next to Dummet and Murphy that team last night was terrifying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 When everyone is fit, we may see him starting on the left and ASM moving across to the right. The forwards do seem to rotate positions a lot this season under Howe, mind, with seemingly a lot of license to take up inside forward positions. There should be a lot of opportunities for him to get on the scoresheet regardless. He's capable of scoring long-range screamer too which isn't something any of our attacking players seem to be able to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I really hope Chris Wood just gets an upset stomach or something that means Isak can jump ahead of him quicker. Nothing serious or too painful. Just enough to get the vastly superior player on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the same way a junkie won't chill out until he gets his next fix. Please.... just one moaaar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was for Bruno, Botman less so and now I'm just comfortable in knowing that this is the new us. At what point is Diaby gutted for not kicking up a fuss at Leverkusen?

McCormick Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I like how all window we’ve been underbidding for players and then all of a sudden pay way over the odds for this guy. Happy with the player but absolutely floored by what we’re willing to pay for him. A real (and welcome) statement that we can play with the big boys when we really want someone.

I don't think it's over the odds, or at least not way over the odds. I just think strikers come at a big cost, especially good ones. It is very interesting that we wouldn't budge over our value of Maddison, Harrison and Diaby mind. It's clear now we have strict values on players.

The College Dropout Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) I think we looked at the market and thought "£60m for Isak is pretty good actually". Must be better than £50-60m for Maddison whose value has likely peaked is the logic I guess. Edited August 25, 2022 by The College Dropout Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re Maddison and Harrison these guys both have less than 2 years remaining and are slightly older and are also lacking in international/ champions league experience hence our reluctance to budge.
