Whatever happens, it's good. Because the sheer fact that Liverpool feel the need to target us means they are genuinely threatened and doing all they can to disrupt us. They know what is coming. Once these illegal anti-competition financial regs are torn up, or clubs keep finding more loopholes, then the Saudi money will come in to plah. Then the dirty 6 will probably run off crying to set up a super league.
I think all that talk is horseshit. Truth is Liverpool were always interested in both players, tried for one and then the next. This power play crap is media nonsense and designed to belittle Newcastle whatever happens. The real truth is Liverpool ain't getting their number one target and Newcastle have 75 million to spend..
It's true though isn't it.... If it was the other way around the headlines would be Newcastle forced to move on to inferior target after failed attempt to land their man. Or Failure sees Newcastle left licking their wounds
I'm pretty sure Newcastle have encouraged Liverpool towards Ekitike rather than Liverpool being cunning. I said this at the time, but they basically said go and buy Ekitike when they loudly leaked the Ekitike bid. Newcastle said **** off and buy Ekitike or we will.... They won't report that narrative though. One way to end the Isak ****e
PIF need to learn that if they want to own a Premier League club, that they should not be financing their clubs rivals such as Chelsea and Man City (as they did by sponsoring that Fifa club crap) and the horrid hub cap thieving faux Irishmen of Liverpool. F*ck 'em right off and say that they'll NEVER get to sign Isak from Newcastle, no matter what.
It's all about getting them and the entire sport on the Saudi tit. Once that is achieved we'll do what we want.
Ekitike apparently prefers Liverpool. So the kid wants to make the same mistake again and hardly play football. Do these ****ers not learn from their mistakes.
Im only surprised he’s not off to Chelsea, a few of us have seen through his bullshit before and I think one good season in Germany cannot make you a £75m player. Just when I thought we were making progress after Elanga, here we are making the exact same **** scouting mistakes like we did with Olise, Huijsen, Pedro, Delap, and so on. They aren’t keen, so why are we bothering? I wish we could just get back to the Tonali/Isak days when we just go out and buy a player who is available and wants to come.
Well the thread title is still fitting. Romano has posted to say the deal is considered off. Now there's a surprise. Olise, Delap, Huijsen, Pedro, Mbuemo, Cunha, Ekitike. It's an impressive list of Here We No.
Was it all just a smokescreen? We are like tyre kickers. Erm I see your player is valued at 85m so would you accept £70m in instalments over 10 years? Well?
