Transfer Rumours The Great Summer Splurge Transfer Window

Did you not watch their opening game?

 

Hedging.

 

We will just have to wait and see.

I think it's starting to become obvious that Paul Mitchell is perhaps the cause of all of this. It wouldn't surprise me if he refused Isak's request for a new contract [that had previously been discussed with Staveley] and Isak on the back of that asked to leave. The owners got wind of what Mitchell had done and he left on the back of it.

Is this what he said for real? I think the coming to an end quote must be about Isak and us getting a striker.

 

He did. It sounds like we are getting a striker [finally.] It will also mark the end of the Isak saga one way or another.

 

interesting comment from Howe

" This situation is regrettable. Not something we wanted or Alex wanted."

Agent

 

Newcastle United training ground plans approved

Yup. Sounds like his agent has stirred to the point of making Isak's position feel untenable.

 

Isak should have sacked off his agent and made it clear what his thoughts were. Handed a transfer request and done things properly.

 

Don't have an issue with him wanting to leave. The way it's been done is the issue and that's down to his agent. Could have been oh so different.

 

Clearly agent narrative, everyone must realise that. Yes, Isak wants out. Newcastle won’t realistically stand in the way of an acceptable bid. But the agent has made this so, so awkward and diffficult out of nothing but selfish greed. You’d like to think this episode will finally see that ****ing useless feckless thundercunt Masters do something about agents. We all know the reality.

 

Agents have been ruining the game since Bosman

 

Meanwhile.... the magnificent Matt Targett is set to join Middles-bore-oh FC on a season long loan according to the Northern Echo

Larsen has agreed terms with Newcastle it’s just the fee which is expected to be 55-60m.

He’s our new number 9 mate I am afraid.

 

I would just add it is also down to Isak
He's 25yo
He's a grown man.

 

Still think it'll be Wissa

 

Oh yeah. His agent is a contributory factor but Isak remains a ****.

 

Masters probably needs someone to help to the toilet. Levy and co open their mouths for that purpose.

 

We're down to Alexander Sorloth now. A 30 year old.
We may as well go for Ollie Watkins.
