If PIF capitulate and sell for 120m without a 2nd striker, I think they will be surprised by the hostility that they will get from NUFC fans.
And if they do hold out, they equally deserve huge respect. Tomorrow is going to be a very interesting day.
Some deluded fans on twitter thinking ISAK could be ever integrated back Into the club. He’s on record as saying he’ll never play for us again. whether or not we get a other striker in, our only option would be to sell as he would become a depreciating asset. the team above the individual.
Disgraceful capitulation by PIF especially if they don't sign any cnut else and also demand that the rat puts in a transfer request before they allow him to leave. If this story about Isak deal being accepted for £125m even if a replacement is not brought in, is correct, then it makes PIF and the Saudis look like a bunch of cucks and incompetent amateurs given last week's "hardball" statement about conditions of sale.
All posturing to try and force the price up. Same as Liverpool's 'we'll definitely not go above £120m' reports. If we get another decent striker in today, it's acceptable in the circumstances. If we don't... Huge risk to our season and, with the pressure it would dump on him, to the successful integration of Woltemade.
We all knew it was coming and those expecting £150m were mad, £130m is a good price for someone who downed tools and refused to help when we needed him its good business. Sure we'll get a other with a midfielder too before the deadline. For once it should be an exciting deadline day
It's an excellent price. And I really do hope so I think I'm a bit less confident of it turning out to be an exciting day than you though. Could easily see us trying for one of Wissa or Larsen again, wasting the time on them and ending up with nothing. Hopefully not. We'll see.
I don't think Newcastle will get more than another striker today. There's no time, they'll go again next year with the money. A big chunk has already been spent when you consider we've gone over 200 million before we even sign a 2nd striker. Banter FC today unfortunately guys.
In this day and age Liverpool hand Newcastle 130m for Isak and we are the ones that got mugged off Games gone
