Alexander Isak

[Ketsbaia]

On a level that I never thought I'd see a Newcastle United player.

 

He's absolutely phenomenal. And ours.

[r0cafella]

Hope we can keep growing so we can tie him down. He isn't replaceable in and shape or form. 

 

Haaland maybe the best the best goal scorer in the league but Isak is the better footballer and it isn't even close.

This guy is winning us the cup

[Big Geordie]

Another brilliant centre-forward display tonight - tore Gabriel and Saliba to pieces.

[Mike]

Isak saves a gear for big clubs and it's terrifying when he turns it on.

[Mike]

If PSR take him from us I will become Dr Doom.

[duo]

His hunger for a goal is relentless - he didn't stop running. Honestly his work rate puts Haaland to shame.

He is irreplaceable - generational talent.  The man is World Class.

[wormy]

It's an absolute disgrace he doesn't have a goal to show for this game. He is monstrous. His movement at times is something else. 

[RobsonsWonderland]

It's a win win with Isak and feels a lot like the  Andy Cole situation all over again.

 

If He stays well will have one of the best strikers in the world.

 

If he goes the money will fund the next stage of the team rebuild.

 

Just hope we win silverware beige the latter happens 

 

 

 

 

[r0cafella]

He's also noticeably fitter this season which is good to see. 

[duo]

If we want to win something we cannot sell this lad - I pray we make the CL as not only will it help keep the likes of Isak from wanting to leave, the money we'll generate from being in it will help us not need to sell him.

[Jonas]

His touch and turn for the 1-2 with Gordon leading up to the goal was sublime. That as much as the strike itself would have made it an all-time great of ours had it gone in.  Glad Murphy preserved it for posterity

For his future - the lad seems happy here. He looks settled with the city and is enjoying his football. Am sure he will see assurances for his career to come - CL football and being at the top end, which is of course fair enough. I hope he stays for the next 10 years, though I imagine it will be hard to keep him if the likes of Real Madrid, Bayern or Barca come knocking with a huge bid.

 

He seems like a really decent lad too  - a proper modern day role model for any youngsters watching. Great to see   Am sure he will be spoken of in the future in the same way as Wor Jackie, Supermac, Keegan, Andy Cole, Ferdinand and Shearer.

Love his energy and willingness to work despite knowing he can stand still and deliver. Absolute dream of a striker...can see he tires early but what he does is priceless 

[KaKa]

I continue to be impressed by what a good job he does when jostling with defenders for position, considering his frame.

 

Especially when you see how badly someone like Havertz struggles with the physicality.

Excellently put. He is monstrous. It describes him perfectly.
