Agree. Lets get rid of it.

Very Spartan. Philip of Macedonia still took control of Greece though. Wait, my historical parallel is getting mixed up.

Tomorrows headline - “Newcastle reject Liverpools offer”……yawn and then on it continues.
But you’re in Oz, where tomorrow is yesterday.

It’s a fair point, but how much of their struggles to sign players this summer has been due to a lack of financial headroom to get those deals done? If that is true then selling Isak should remove that barrier.
If I was Sesko, I’d rather go to Newcastle. Howe is a good manager, he’d be the first choice striker, and he wouldn’t have the toxicity that just poisons everything at Man U these days.

Apparently terms are in place for a 5 year deal if we can agree a fee.
Via the BBC gossip page also some nonsense from the Scum about a player I’ve never heard of or have been linked too.

Isak’s Coming. Try and Stop It.
Liverpool are about to take what they want. Alexander Isak, one of Europe’s best strikers, is on the table and the club’s ready to slap down the cash, clear the space, and walk out with him smiling in red. No fuss, no flinch.
While others moan about net spend and imagined humility quotas, LFC are playing a sharper game. Diaz goes, others will follow, and not a drop of PSR sweat is spilled. That’s how you do business when you know exactly who you are.
Of course the noise has started. The usual names and faces telling Scousers to stay in their lane. The tired digs about spending, about timing, about where big players should go. It stinks of fear. Of knowing your club missed the shot and Liverpool didn’t blink. The same mouths that talked up Isak as world-class now want to talk him down because he fancies Anfield over an oil-backed fantasy or the comfort of being second-best.
Isak’s no gamble. He’s a scalpel. He cuts through defences with a striker’s instinct you can’t coach and composure you either have or you don’t. Liverpool didn’t just desire. They planned, they managed, and they waited. And now they’re going in with intent. They will get their man.
Let them cry. Let them call it cheeky. Let them tell Liverpool to remember their place. That is Liverpool’s place now. Building a front line that looks like a problem for any defence, run by people who don’t need to shout, because they know where it ends.
Expect the choreography, a first bid, a refusal, a second bid, the British record falling, NUFC funded to find their replacements, everyone shaking hands once the paperwork is clean.
A record fee? Fine. That’s what proper players cost. And when he walks out at Anfield with 9 on his back and a point to prove, those pretending they never wanted him will be the first to feel it.

No Isak news yet?
Yes. None.

No news, but an interesting article:
It explains our massive firepower in financial terms this summer, and how from Isak’s perspective, we are the only club in the PL who are a realistic option for him.
Still no signs if Newcastle will finally agree to sell him though.

I would keep Nunez. Simple.

Whatever the answer I don’t think it’s Nunez frankly.

It appears not, but there isn’t a line of suitors for him banging on the door either. I wouldn’t rule out him staying as cover for Diaz’s position.

Wouldn’t make much sense for Nunez to stay. We’re about to splash comfortably more than €200m on two new strikers. I don’t think he’s good enough to be a serious option on the left, under Slot. We don’t need a line of suitors, just one buyer that is prepared to pay what we want and I believe he’s also had enough a little bit and is open for a change.

Sorry. I meant keep him and not buy Isak.
