    They can and they will. It's all on Isak there, they got away with it last season, but an injury to him and they are nowhere near the top six. They have the Saudi Royals, and they'll spend them

    It’s a huge risk for who does get him. Sick note.

    Sick note and terrible at football, I'm not even sure a champ team will pick him up. Saudi beckons.

    Bang on. Their midfield is everything to them. And their defence is pretty ordinary actually, but that three really takes the pressure of them.

    Saudis hold the cards. He has three years left, though if he gets wind of a top club wanting him, he might get a cob on.

    He's a cracking player. But it might be a bit like a lot of Ipswich's signings this time last year. Some of the best in the Championship, handy to get you back up...

    I think the only way they sell him is if he makes it public he wants away. The Saudis can hold out

    Personally think Sargent is gash. Never seen it.

    If we'd went up in that first summer, Donald and his mate would have been gone by the start of the next season, as per the plan. All flipped and gone.

    I don't see how this makes sense, one of these scenarios holds true:

    They keep and play both or rotate; they use the vast majority of their budget on an area that didn't necessarily need strengthening. Could see them struggle with all the games and lack of depths in CM/CB etc

    They sell Isak and he's the replacement; Isak goes for 120m and they buy a CB but they've sold the best striker in the league

    Aye, people talk about the 6-0 to Bolton being a blessing. But that 90+4 Bauer goal from Charlton was also a blessing

    They definitely needed strengthening up front, they want to go deep in the champions league this year and to do that they will need an alternative to isak in case of injury - they view that alternative as important and are willing to spend top dollar.

    Also lets them rest Isak in league and cup games too and gives the opportunity to play a 2 striker formation.

    They will sign more than just ekitike.

    Yeah all the talk of strengthening the spine, only really tackled the thoracic spine so far.
