    So after Alan Shearer scored his first goal we'd broken the world transfer record just for one goal?

    Your argument is getting silly.

    Shearer had already scored 20 to 30 goals a season....

    What's silly is trying to suggest isak is comparable with one of the greatest strikers that's ever lived. <laugh>

    Why isn't he capable of 90 minutes ... let's focus on what is actually happening shall we rather than just try and ignore it and keep trying to kick the can down the road.

    I mean come on 60 million pounds and we've got a player with 3 goals who isn't even capable of playing 90 minutes by the middle of March.

    There's quite clearly something not right going on.

    If his equaliser against Bournemouth and winner against Fulham help us qualify for Europe, then he'll have already covered his price tag.

    Gordon was a player you all wrote off before he kicked a ball

    What you've done is prove my point actually....

    Favouritism leads to fans making excuses they don't afford to other players

    Anyway, I never wrote him off, I said he was an annoying **** of a player, that's not the same thing. He's now our annoying ****. <laugh>

    I find isak annoying for doing nothing to warrant his price tag and getting rimmed without earning it.

    I just don't understand why he's above criticism... the bloke can't even run around like longstaff for 90 minutes.

    The bare minimum

    That can't be the bare minimum, nobody else can runaround for 90 minutes like Longstaff.
