Singapore

Doubt it. He's lost interest (according to our resident expert in losing interest in hobbies).

Never let it be said that you can take a joke and move on.

Nah. It’s because the owners have clearly lost interest in the project and Isak knows it

The guru has delivered.

shit garden, horribly lacking in colour. bland, featureless with furniture from home bargains. up your game keith. oh and the fence obviously hasn't seen a coat of wood preservative for many a long year.... the bone idle cunt.

At one point in time players had a sense of loyalty to their team and their teammates. That rarely runs beneath the surface these days. The money in the game has brought the unscrupulous agents and they are the ones continually in players ears about what they could be getting elsewhere for their own self interest. Combine that with the FA, FIFA etc all protecting their financial positions with payments that favour the powerhouse teams who they can't afford to lose from their competitions. It's shit and it's unfortunately only going to get worse. The only loyalty is from the supporters who suffer the ingrained injustices yet still fiercely support their team. These too will become fewer and fewer with more and more kids simply jumping aboard the bandwagons of the most financially dominant.. err "best" teams.

Brentford have decided Wissa isn't for sale

Not another guru !

so really, howe just needs to nut the cunt?

The official club account hasn't posted it. I had to go to the trouble of typing Eddie howe press conference Singapore because of your selfishness. You wouldn't act like this on mumsnet or your discord with the crypto bros. Disgusting.

I wonder what is going on in Isaks head and what he's said/is saying to the manager or his team mates at this point. He's been a promising and developing player for a most of his career but after the last season this is really the first time hes been a "star" and it feels like its gone to his head. Wonder if the backlash from his team mates (it seems that at the very least Bruno and Joelinton are pretty pissed off at his attitude to it all) and the fans has surprised him. Its said that behind the scenes Tindall is the one who is mates with the players and Howe is a bit of a hardass, so I can't imagine Eddie has treated him gently since his dedication to the club has dropped off.

Since he was a small boy he's dreamed about scoring at the Kingdom Arena, and since it opened last year he now has the opportunity to realise those dreams. An opportunity he can't refuse.

Hope has said were now looking at Jackson I hope he means Janet

It’s worth noting that Isak’s agent only has a handful of decent players and none even close to Isak’s level. He’s their cash cow and a big move for him would be a huge pay day for them.

He's just come on, off the bench.

They won't get £115m for Diaz...

Sounds like this Hopkinson cunt has plenty of experience with commercial deals. First thing he should be doing is sticking his boot up Silverstone’s arse.

I stopped there for a few days coming back from australia, its not so much the heat, but the fucking ridiculous humidity. other than that I recall the chandelier in the reception of the holiday inn on orchard road was a big as my house in cheltenham. and literally every fucker over there who has ever picked up a needle and thread has made a suit for cliff richard.

Dubravka on his way to join the squad now after we fucked up the Trafford deal. He must feel pretty used by the club over the past 12months tbf

Bruno on Elanga: "he's dead fast"

Comes from a good family

gardening tips in the transfer thread is the new 70s music videos.

It's probably not gonna happen, but the other amazing thing if Isak went to Saudi is that it would be one in the eye for the Premier League if their stupid financial rules prompted the best striker in Europe to leave for the Saudi Pro League. These rules were designed to protect the top 6, not weaken the league as a whole.

Eales would walk out of a whore house with blue balls.

At(a)lanta Kevin.

Wykiki the fake news guru.

Poor bastards been on less than minimum wage since he's been there, no wonder he wants out!

FYP

Offer a short term consultancy job to 'Pards' for the task or if you want an all round shoeing and menacing threat see if Souness can do a week's work offering him on in the gym.

There’s stuff they pretend they don’t remember too…

Yeah, everything changes all the time. There were arguably better bowlers in Lara and Tendulkar’s era too. More poor sides to play maybe now too. DRS balances things out a bit in favour of the bowlers a bit though.

Of anyone, including players, he's the most vital person at the club.

A ton in Aussie would definitely confirm him in the very upper pantheon (series win or not IMO, both would be good though 😁). Different game through the ages and impossible to compare, even things like the advent of all the protective gear has had an effect on batsmen's mentality, then there's the bat technology and the pitches etc etc etc. Standing up to Marshall, Roberts and Holding wouldn't be as daunting in modern kit but it'd still be scary as fuck.

Anyone signing Arnold has no business being shocked that he can’t defend. But one in ten of his passes though:

How very @Isegrim of you.

I bet (sorry) if Tonali had still been at Milan he wouldn't have got such a long ban but because he was out of country..................

This guru thing is boring and childish mate. You, a grown bloke, has had a disagreement on an online football forum. It’s not that deep.

Cleo Laine, thought she'd carked it years ago tbh

It's a very short career in top-level football & players with ambition can't afford to stay at a club that is slowly developing. Isak's chances of winning cups increases playing for Liverpool or PSG. Every player kisses the badge but at the end of the day it's a cut throat business & a player has to do what's best for him. Isak's value is pretty good right now & there is very little value in hanging on to an unhappy player.

Thread on Isak on the SMB, nearing 200 posts in an hour or so. Nothing unusual about that. Except this is the thread that replaced the thread which replaced the thread on Isak. There's now been over 4000 posts of mackem gloating over this over the course of less than week.

It’s just normal football stuff. Players move around. Bruno and Joelinton both left clubs to come here. As much as I hate it happening, Isak has personal ambitions both professionally and financially that we can’t meet. Had the club been run better and previous windows had worked better it may be a different story, but it’s crystal clear from Hope that us pissing the player about last year hasn’t helped either. It’s just the same situation that always haunt clubs not at the top of the pecking order. Far too many times its happened to us already. PIF ownership and onfield success has allowed us to temporarily forget how this stuff goes. Sadly it’s no different, we are just a little higher up the pecking order.

similar to bindippers then.

Aah this was you...it all makes sense now

If you take Bradman out of the equation then he is is right up there with the others in terms of all time great test batsmen. He’s really that good. Especially over the last five years. It’s just an incredible run of form.
