Don't need to be inside this thing to see what every single media report (that local one aside) said about this - that he was waiting for Man United and preferred Man United.

Ashley17 Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 That’s the problem these days. It being on SSN doesn’t make it any more factual than reading it on Twitter. It’s like when BBC have their gossip column page and people say they read it on the BBC. Not really the same credibility Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why people watch sky sports news is beyond me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t work like that though. He can be interested in joining us whilst still wanting to see all of his options, and that’s fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 FWIW my preference is to not sign him anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novocastrian Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 Let him go to Man Utd - what’s the opinion on Ramos v Šeško as we are probably having to go down the list. Ramos and Wissa seems like a solid forward line but both very different players to Isak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of us have a clue what’s going on. Pure speculation because we’re frustrated / scared of missing out / been burnt too many times this summer.

lovejoy Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 If the Ramos link was concrete (let's see), i don't think anyone would choose this lad. The biggest issue here if we don't sign him is another knock back and another week plus wasted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 I mean as soon as Ornstein's incredibly specific, clearly agent-fed update came out the other night, it was curtains, aye. Assuming the transfer committee isn't literally braindead, we'll have been investigating other targets from that moment on. Prior to then, clearly we were encouraged enough to progress as far as making definitive offers (again that's assuming the decision makers are powered by functioning brain matter).

Less coveted players are easier to sign so I don't think this has ever been a major cause for concern, despite it obviously being better to have players through the door as early as possible.

gdm Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 1 hour ago, Unbelievable said: More nonsense. It’s all about the number. Replacements won’t come cheap and we have a squad to build if we want to continue to progress towards our objectives. There’s no way we’re letting Isak go for a penny less than out valuation. Not with 3 years left on his deal and with only a direct rival at the table. All I can say is I’m glad none of you are negotiating on our behalf. We hold all the cards yet most of you can’t wait to hand our world class striker over to a rival club for less than we’d consider good value ffs I agree it will be £150m when add ons are added but Liverpool can afford it with Nunez one foot out the door Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 (edited) Would people really prefer Ramos? Not for me. Sesko is quicker and more suited to our game, and likely hungrier in making a clear step up. Ramos is a bit too one paced. Plus the curse of Portuguese strikers all being a bit crap in any proper league, Ronaldo aside. Edited August 4, 2025 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
