Alexander Isak (CF) Newcastle

Dunno which one of their scouts told them that Jackson ain’t as good as Isak, but he deserves a raise. Very strong footballing knowledge on their part.

They’ve got some smart people working on their transfers.

That’s why Jackson isn’t going to cost £120+m.

Yep… I’ll be glad when I don’t have to hear about it anymore; it’s giving me a headache.

If anyone listens to the TAW - Neil Atkinson believes this signing will lead to LFC signing Isak.
They will move a few players around - like Gordon - and change formation a bit.

Strange move for Villa. I presume they are still under the gun with PSR.

Villa did seem to spend a bit more than what they could handle the last two seasons. Some high profile transfers too. I assume their expectation was that Emery would get them to 5th.

Their squad needs a bit of a refresher as well too. Plenty of known names but a not insignificant number on pretty high wages.

Was it Villa who were screwed over for 5th by a referee howler?

Yep. Was a shame.

Last game against Utd - win and they get CL with 5th place. It was 0-0 with about 20 mins to go and they had an opening goal ruled out for a very dubious foul on the keeper. Utd then went up the other end to take the lead almost after. Villa had been playing like shit and were a man down so no guarantee they’d have held on for 3 points had their goal been given, but it was a pretty big gut punch nonetheless

Howe sounds like he’s resigned to Isak leaving.

It’s quite astonishing how they have ended up in this mess.
