When he goes on those little soliloquies, you see why the players we sign are so instantly attached to him and convinced by his "phone calls".I like that quote

Yeah, much more than needed. I think we are trying to offload Richarlison in order to bring a big name, maybe Isak.Possibility?!? FML
No striker and we can kiss top 4 goodbye. End of story.
What's the plan, rely on Son who can't play with his back to goal and Richy who can't say fit more than 2 games at a time?? Kulu? Sarr? Parrott??
Get all the Doue's and Gray's you like, without a striker who can hold up the ball we're fucked. Really question Ange's squad building if this isn't a priority.
No way are we getting Isak lolYeah, much more than needed. I think we are trying to offload Richarlison in order to bring a big name, maybe Isak.
Yeeeeeeees way, Hercules said that!No way are we getting Isak lol
To be fair N'Jie wasn't very good even in the French League, Ndombele, the other way, was a very promising player and we beat some great clubs to have him I think.Anyone else remember when Clinton Njie was really good in the French League? Oh and that Ndombele fella as well. Let’s stay away from the guys that don’t play for PSG.
Fuck me - even in FM you need to be very patient and saavy to grow the very best players that max out their max possible attributes.Instant World Class.
In every position.
Basically people who play FM and think it makes them an expert.

Really? First I'd heard of this, and I'd be surprised given how much of a tight ship Howe runs. Got a source?Reportedly Newcastle had a number of dressing rooms issues last season; with players partying and getting up to all sort of trouble off the pitch.
Yeh come to think of it nobody good has ever come from the French league. Literally can't think of a single name. Crap national team too. Great point you made!Anyone else remember when Clinton Njie was really good in the French League? Oh and that Ndombele fella as well. Let’s stay away from the guys that don’t play for PSG.
He does make us better. So maybe 20 or 30 games is enough.When Neto is on the pitch, he's close to a dream wide player signing for us. Would be so perfect...
It's just that I don't think you can guarantee him playing more then 20 odd league games in a season. It just feels like a risk we can't/won't take right now.
Not sure about being a starter but is a decent winger, filled in quite well for Maddison when needed and was good when he played striker. Still young, could improve again and we should keep.Can he really be a long term starter at Tottenham Hotspur if we want to win things? And if so, at what position?

Regardless, even if Isak's agent wants a new club for him (1) he'll cost over 100m easily, we don't pay that kind of money, (2) Newcastle just made 2 sales before the deadline meaning they don't have FFP problems and they don't need to sell, and (3) he'd have a ton of suitors, he wouldn't pick us over the likes of Woolwich etc who'd be in for him. Forget it mate, sorry.
Too clueless to bother replying to. I'm getting the sense you're new to this sport?Don't see why Isak would cost over 100m 'easily'. Kane & Haaland didn't even cost that much. There are no clubs that have that sort of money to spend.\
My guess is 70m would get the deal over the line.

Clueless?
There have only ever been 9 100m+ transfers. Is Isak is in that bracket?

Am I the only one that wouldn't be that pissed off if this happened?
Context though...
4 years left on his contract
Newcastle don't want or need to sell
Newcastle paid around £60m for him
One of the best strikers on the market
Prem tested
Multiple clubs after him
Everything points to a high value, certainly way higher than £70m
Context though......
Isak - Goal contribution every 97 minutes
Richarlison - Goal contribution every 98 minutes
