    Doubt he woke up today but sensible to use it now rather than wait for that league title.

    What are they singing? To me it sounds like:

    Newcastle won the cup, don't you know, ****ing hell.

    On a more serious note, I hope he does actually stay with you. Can't be turning into a bundesliga-style league where any non-top team who ever signs anyone good just ends up being forced to sell that player onto the top teams in the league a season or two later.

    BUT, question for toon fans... if you sold Isak for £130m, that would mean you could get Osimhen for £50m and then still have a **** load more money still spare in PSR-terms to bolster your squad further. Would you be tempted to do that? Swap Isak for a trio of the likes of Osimhen, Ousmane Diomande & Xavi Simons?

    He's not going to be sold mate... The seconds phase of the build is now underway. The club's in a strong psr position.

    Not really what I asked. I just wondered if a geordie would take that trade if it was hypothetically on the table?

    Not really tbh, Isak is pretty irreplaceable right now.

    Christ fair enough. Would love Osimhen in the prem to see how good he really is. £50m seems too good to be true. Maybe he’s too much of a massive helmet to be truly elite.

    Theoretically we could sign him as well though if it's only £50m, I just wouldn't lose Isak.

    Lot of flu going round at the moment. Can’t be too careful.

    He was probably coked up and didnt wait 10 minutes before being overly honest. I hope his boss understood the importance...

    No we will simply buy some better players and keep out best players.

    Winning the League Cup wouldn’t even be the highlight of your weekend. This will be a national holiday there for generations to come. Riyadh has never seen scenes like it probably.
