    I absolutely agree.

    We can still come out on top

    No. Not at all. Botman is an injury waiting to happen and Schar/Burn every game lose a bit more of their pace

    Getting a centre back was one of the top 3 priorities this window.
    We've all seen that Lascelles and Krafth are not going to cut it so in all honesty we need 2

    All we have to do is 'man up'.

    Don't act like a big club, be a big club.

    Goals win games. Imagine a strike force of Isak and Sesko. Always preferred 2 strikers up front. Think Shearer and Ferdinand. Not in terms of style but goal scoring threat.

    Also, think Tonali, Bruno and Big Joe in midfield with a front three of Isak, Sesko and one of Gordon or Elanga.

    Projects take time and, if necessary, we can sort the defence out later if we don't have the money now due to getting Sesko. I'm prepared to wait as things take time and I believe the Club do know what they are doing.

    The idiots will lash out at Isak because that's how they react when someone upsets them. Unfortunately they don't have the brains to empathise and get behind him.

    We are about 4/5 signings away from being title challengers.

    I agree we need a RCB but Schar and Burn and Botman got us to 5th last season and a LC win. They can last another season. Yes its a risk but its the bigger picture that's important. Namely that we will not be pushed around by the American clubs.

    Easy way for Isak to get back in with the fans is to sack his w*nker of an agent and say that he was badly advised. Simples!

    A second rate agent out of depth as well.

    Clearly something illegal has gone on. We won't hear the end of this.

    Really hope so. Sesko looks a player like and getting him might be the signs that Isak is wanting to see to keep him at the club. I really don’t get this whole Man Utd or more attractive than us bollocks all the time. 20 years ago maybe but not anymore! Champions League football would be enough in my book, the No9 shirt definitely still has some appeal in my book and playing alongside Isak, Bruno and Tonali etc isn’t the worst place to be by any stretch of the imagination.

    He’s hardly that, he has a decent enough client lists not as if Isak is his only client. He’s just a ****ing absolute rat bastard that should be kicked to within a ****ing inch of his life if he dares to rock up here again.

    Another point worth highlighting that there is no direct quotes from Isak around the whole situation. Feels completely fabricated to get Isak a better contract, definitely snowballed greater than he must’ve thought.
    Think what Son has just done and come out that he wants to leave and agreed with club etc. Thats the proper way of doing it. Plus he’s been a good servant.

    So, you're not a fan of his, if I'm reading between the lines correctly.

    Botman really didn't. As said burn and Schar are losing pace and decision making every game. We will suffer majorly in 4 competitions

    According to Sky Sports we've submitted bid for Sesko.

    Step one. Tick.
