who the fuck is this cunt?

Liverpool apparently looking at Wissa now too

yeah, that’s how I see it since we lost out on sesko. There aren’t many strikers available that are good enough to replace Isak. Unless we surprised everyone with an audacious bid for a CF not previously linked with a move, you’re talking your Jacksons or DCLs. Watkins is probably the only one linked with a move away that I would fancy. But he’s going to be v expensive for a bloke about to turn 30. I don’t see us getting him and Wissa in

I’d rather keep Isak and get Wissa in to replace Wilson than go for Jackson. The only question is whether Isak will stink the dressing room out in a huff, or not. If his move to Liverpool is off, he and the club need to do something on the comms front. Some sort of statement to show he’s committed for another season or have him sign a new contract. It doesn’t matter if it’s mostly PR guff.

Have you been on the sauce again Craig? Genuinely no idea what you’re on about

Is that Winterfell or King’s Landing?

wasn’t that our plan that we were all getting excited about a week or two ago?

No chance Isak goes now, surely. There are no players on the market that I can think of left that would go anywhere near to replacing him. Wissa is Wilson’s replacement, not Isak’s. (Assuming that deal doesn’t also go tits up).

I can’t wait for the window to fuck off and the football to get going again and for Eddie to prove again why money alone isn’t everything.

agree with this. If we don’t sign Sesko, or another player capable of replacing Isak (Not Wissa, he is Wilson’s replacement), Isak stays. Could make for an interesting first home game of the season.

what the fuck you on about now, Craig?

Two weeks till the start of the season. Howe has been royally stitched up. Again. Bit unfair to expect him to pull rabbits out of the bag every season with no support

drowned in a pool of his own bullshit

Sesko, Guehi, Wissa, Paqueta in. Keep Isak Rolling past the cartel clubs, their little bitch Romano and the all the gimps on sky and Talk sport like

i would LOVE it if the Saudis played the buster gonads card

turning Japanese, I really think so

Six and two threes. The point is i only think Man U get him if Isak stays. They haven’t got the cheddar to match our bid. So we’re in stasis until the Isak situation is worked out one way or another. Hopefully we get Wissa done soon. Hope said the other day it was imminent

I think the Sesko thing boils down to Isak. If we keep Isak Man U get Sesko. If Isak goes we get Sesko because Man U can’t afford him unless they sell Hoijland. They’re waiting to come in with a lowball offer if our offer for him collapses

he has. For us

Not sure he’d be a better option at 10 than Isak. I guess he played there for England U21s (or was it more of a false 9). I don’t think he has the technical ability to really flourish in the 10. Isak does

4-2-3-1 could work in a possession-based game - a lot of the top sides set up that way - but we’re about to sell the one player in the squad who could play as a number 10

We still need two forwards, a CB and a CM. Hard to see us getting all that done in the remaining month of the window given the glacial progress so far
