Well whether or not Isak was having an in match tete-a tete with Van Dyck is for them to know. But the simple fact is that if the Saudis want to, they can block the move. If they don't block it, it's because they don't want the hassle. I can't think of any player muscling their way out of Abhu City. Even Tevez was made to leave on the clubs terms, and when they wanted. As for the rest, they can cite intractable difficulties with the stadium, and they are intractable, there are no easy answers there. But the training ground is another matter. In the four years they have been there, little has been done at Benwell. A new one could easily have been built by now. You can build them almost anywhere, especially with an obedient council. But they haven't. And the ground rumbles on, rusting from the inside out and with a wobbly roof. And Isak might get away. It's not exactly full blooded commitment.
If Isak leaves it looks bad. If he leaves for the desert, which I honestly cannot see, then it's "dream" over for that lot Their souls were sold for nothing
Sounds like the kind of guy that is convinced his lass/sister still wants to be with him after telling him she just wanted to experience sex with another man
Since the takeover, they thought they would at the centre of the football world, and everything would revolve around them. Think they're now realising that they're not, and they're still just plain old newcastle united.
I'm sick of reading they are not Big 6 even though that's what they have told everyone for the last couple of years because they are so rich
Complaining about the 'Cartel' because they are not allowing them to join the 'Cartel' Not a fan of the 'Big 6' for obvious reasons, but if they are the buffer zone against a Saudi takeover of English football, then I'm all for them.
The most paranoid fans in football. Now it's the "cartel", previously it was the FA and the "establishment" including the government. All conspiracy theories about why they're being held back and people working against them. The way they go it's not going to be long before they claim Lee Harvey Oswald assassinated JFK to stop them winning the league!
