Craig 12381 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Wouldn’t at all surprise me if he’s had a verbal agreement with Mitchell which wasn’t backed by the club and has resulted in him leaving earlier this summer. If Isak is hanging on the empty promise of a twat no longer employed by the club then he’s an even bigger idiot than I first imagined. What’s down on paper is what you have to go on, going on strike because someone said something to you and it hasn’t happened is going to get you nowhere. Stick him in the reserves and let him kiss goodbye to the coming season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 17238 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 It sounds emotional but let him rot. Fine him 2/3 weeks wages for every game he misses, a further week for every training session he misses and forbid him from going to Sweden camps whenever you actually can. At some point, you’re not actually paying the cunt to sit in the house watching Netflix all day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he was born to play for Liverpool. Burn, Bruno and Gordon too. Anyone directly connected to the club who has spoken on it has been nothing but supportive. I reckon they might welcome him back to train with the team just so they can yark him about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They cannot just sit. On the contrary I’d love them to say nothing and simply reiterate the point he’s under contract and not for sale. we need to sue this wanker for breach of contract mind you.

Dazzler 16193 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Also where I’m at right now screams impending climb down. Liverpool won’t budge much on their price and will be questioning his personality. He’s fucked himself sideways the thick twat. The Russian gangster will have his kneecaps if he doesn’t get his five mil this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's called the club a bunch of cunts in a very public statement, timed for maximum impact. This is reputational, and damages our efforts to sign other cunts. We cannot say nothing.

Toonpack 15590 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 So from his statement "allowed people to push their own version of events" correct me if I'm wrong but there's only one version of events that's been pushed and it's his/his agents version I've seen nothing to counter that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 8361 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 8 minutes ago, Toonpack said: No, no it really doesn't. And as for be fair to them, I'm sure TBD will put you straight on that FAR more eloquently than I could. I have absolutely no love for them either, but what I really mean here is that this appears to all be on Isak according to his own words. They inquired about him, we knocked them back. He then threw his toys out of the pram and it appears to be less about them unsettling him and more about him unsettling everyone else. He's been stropping on for a year about this contract it would seem, he's essentially just said so himself. It doesn't sound like they needed to do any head turning, he was just done all on his own. It would also explain why Liverpool ridiculously signed Ekitike from under our noses, because it suggests that they actually took us at our word that we weren't selling him. And then they come back again because they think ok, Isak is kicking off now, maybe Newcastle want out of this. So I reckon they are indeed not coming back into the picture now unless we go and get them. For me, this is all on Isak and Mitchell. They've between the two of them made a laughing stock of the whole club this summer. Mitchell has paid for it already, but Isak needs to be kept in reserves until he realises that whatever promises were made, we are not obligated to give him a new deal at any point. He can consider that broken trust, but he can't unilaterally do anything to change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holden McGroin 9902 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 This is him essentially publicly doubling down on the move now. I hope we take an even harder stance with him now. Fucking prick. i want him out the club more than anything but Liverpool have clearly tapped him up and are trying to lower the price so i hope he rots or has to accept a Saudi offer.

Craig 12381 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 All those media conferences where Eddie has been pushed on it and said the content must be kept private. And then Isak airs it all in public. He will never be welcome in the city again … ever! whatever happens, we don’t give him that move. Get fucked, not happening 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isegrim 11894 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 What utter bollocks. Broken promises? What kind of promise does he think of? Selling him under value? Shooting ourselves in the foot by selling him without any replacement? The club might have promised to allow him to move on under the right circumstances but any other promise would have been idiotic madness. If he had wanted to be totally independent of the club’s interests he should have negotiated a better contract allowing him to. Tough luck Mr Rat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aimaad22 6000 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 What a stupid twat, incredibly unbearably stupid twat he has turned out to be. At some point in his life he will realize this. He can make himself look like an unprofessional, whingy prick get his move and win the CL with Liverpool when he'll be forgotten in a couple of years alongside dozens of others. He would have been talked about and adored for a generation here. Let him rot on the bench, not a penny less than 150M, he can continue to shed tears on social media. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are you reading that I feel bad for him? I don't at all. I'm saying that he seems by his own words to have just announced that this is all on him. So I'm just sort of taking him at his word on this because ultimately I don't see why he would be trying to absolve Liverpool of any blame in this especially when it doesn't seem that they're going to come and rescue him after all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
