    Having cut their noses off to spite their faces the Saudi cheat machine seemingly will now buy isal of themselves to dope Newcastle for psr.

    They could have bought ekitike and sold isak and probably got a better longer term deal

    Now they miss.out in their target and may sell their own player to the beheaded mothership

    Highly doubt it will happen and highly doubt Isak will want to go there

    Lots of Geordies on social media sites bragging they put one over on Liverpool. It is laughable really. It looks like their targets Etikite and Guehi are coming to Liverpool and they have undoubtedly upset Isak in the process. The Geordies are getting a bit above themselves since the Saudis took over.

    100mil.

    We pay 80 or less for ekiteke.
    They pay themselves 120 for isak cos thry are dicks.
    They pay 100 for Darwin.

    Thsts a 3 times lose situation for the fools.

    Thry could have paid for ekitike and elanga out of isak and moved on.

    Some good points. They are unlikely to have bought Ekitike though because he doesn't want to go there. If you knew Liverpool and Newcastle were both interested, which would you choose?

    Well if we were given a nod for isak would we have gone for Ekitike this week?

    I've no idea but I can't imagine we'd put 200mil down for two forwards.

    This could have gone isak to lfc, ekiteke to Newcastle, Darwin to Saudi and we could have all got psr solved for ourselves and everyone would have what they went for.

    As it stands Newcastle might be weakened badly. We won't care much and ignoring the xg crowd we will have a fast forward we can take a look at for ourselves and see what the fuss is about.

    Have this dreadful feeling that they are considering Robbo as a utility CB

    Isak not in squad for their first pre-season v Celtic. Reason given - they are managing his minutes.

    What minutes did he have this summer?

    Answer: 0

    Last played for Sweden in March
    Last played for newcaslte 25th may 90mins.

    Of their last 5 league games. He played 3 90mins, one not in squad and 77mins.

    I think its fairly safe to conclude that he is either injured (again) or taken out of the line of fire.

    Managing minutes sounds far too convenient

    We don't buy for the sake of buying, we only buy it the right player is available. I'm 100% behind this approach even if it leaves us short for a season; I'd rather use youth than waste money.

    It could happen but it'd be thick as pig ****.

    If the strategy was wait til jan and buy guehi for 20 then theres a flaw in that. Palace might not sell.

    We have to.solve this issue. Cbs are always subject to injuries and suspensions.

    Go with 3 and absolutely no youth cover (nallo is miles off, pinnington isn't any better) and we will get ehat we deserve.

    Endo is not a cb.
    Robertson is not a cb
    Gravenberch is on a suspension already proving he is not a cb


    We could go 3 at tje back with robbo and gomez with vvd but again you are then down to no cover and stopped another forward or midfielder to make it happen

    Isak isn’t going to lfc or Saudi - why would he do that?

    He'll sit at Newcastle for the next two years, then at 27/28 he'll tell them he doesn't want to sign a new contract at which point they'll sell to avoid not recouping money for him.

    Probably end up at Chelsea for about £80-90m
