Gemmill 63304 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 "We're still looking to replace Callum Wilson. That's the big area that we're working on." Also saying that the players would all welcome Isak back into the squad/team. He's clearly staying and will be reintegrated. Or at least that's the plan. The club has played a blinder tbf, particularly Howe. Just need to sort the Wilson replacement and we've had a good window and rebuffed Liverpool's attempts to fuck us. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonpack 15611 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 51 minutes ago, The Fish said: No, Dingleberry, it was predictable that at least Arsenal, Manchester United, and Liverpool would be shopping for a new striker in the summer window. Possibly Spurs, and Chelsea too. So, with that being the case, it would have made way way more sense to do our business early as possible. Erm, in case you missed it, we tried, but got gazumped (Pedro) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club will stick it up eventually but if you skip through all the bollocks at the start of this, you can watch it. It seems like the sound isn't working right at the start, but it comes on as soon as Howe starts speaking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 63304 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Howe confirming that he had conversations with Isak at the end of last season about his future - wouldn't confirm he said he wanted to leave but that was clearly what he meant. Ryder trying to shout over the press lad to ask his follow up questions and kept getting shut down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think with the leadership team it will be easier than we think. Plus we don't know what's going on behind close doors. I would like to think people like Trippier etc are putting an arm around him trying to advise him and guide him. The harder part is the fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Howe cuts across the whole thing and speaks to the fans directly for unity and forgiveness, I reckon he can sell that. He has the credibility in the bank. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 12581 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 2 minutes ago, Toonpack said: Erm, in case you missed it, we tried, but got gazumped (Pedro) We got gazumped because rather than have a DoF of worth, we had the least useful Mitchell brother. I've said elsewhere, but Ekitike was available last summer for c£15m and Trafford was around £20m. So instead of spending £20m on Vlachodimos-and-Pliers, we could have got Trafford. Instead of selling Anderson for £35m to Forest we could have sold Gordon to Liverpool for c£75m and replace him with Hugo. Annnnnnd we could have signed Isak up to a long term deal when it became likely that we would finish in the CL. Then, rather than going into this season trying to find two strikers from a position of desperation, we need a Wilson repalcement but could possibly make do without. If Isak STILL wanted to move he's got 5-6yrs on his deal so we can justifiably fuck off any offers under £150m without fear of him throwing a big old strop. If someone comes in for him with that kind of money we can be looking at Sesko, Gyokeres, Pedro, Delap et al, being able to offer them big wages, game time, CL football and the promise that if they play well and the bid is sufficient they too can move onto a 'bigger' club like Gordon did and Isak is. We got gazumped because the DoF didn't direct us well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From personal experience, every time I have had negative emotional feelings and expressed these in my working life, I have come to regret it. No good can come of it in the medium to long term. Isak is proving this right now. He is still our player. We may well still need him. Please don't abuse him. After he leaves, then that's the time for abuse, as it should be. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selling Anderson and Minteh (who weren't near the first XI) made more sense than selling Gordon, who had just had a brilliant season for us, to a direct rival. Ekitike doesn't play LW so he wasn't a direct replacement anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
