There’s not many Geordies where I live in Liverpool. I doubt they’d get away with saying “fuck off you bin dipping cunt”.

Weren’t Newcastle trying to get him to sign a new deal, one that would no doubt have come with a handsome pay rise?
Instead he’s rejecting their money to try and engineer a move to a bigger club where he’s more chance of winning something bigger than the league cup.
Seems they’re confusing greed with ambition.

The contention from his side is they promised him that and he was willing to sign it and commit, but once Mitchell came in he was told it was not going to happen given how long he still had on his existing deal. That caused discontent last year that spilled out into public with Howe publicly calling out his attitude.

It wouldn’t surprise me if this is the case. There’s two weeks of the window left, and our next game in just over a week’s time is against the potential selling club. Either we agree a deal this week, get the medical done, and confirm the deal after the Newcastle game, or inform Isak that we’re moving on. Unlike VVD, where he literally had everything you’d want in a defender, and it was worth waiting for, could we say the same for Isak? I don’t think he’s in that generational bracket of being worth waiting for, but I could be hopelessly wrong on that!
Not sure who the alternatives will be, as the only obvious one who I’d like is Alvarez, but I think that’s a non-starter. I’m not sure if there’s anyone else out there we could get, maybe a player with potential like Ekitike, who is on the cusp of becoming elite, rather than ready-made i.e. Isak. Again, whether there’s anyone like that, I don’t know.

I don’t see another striker besides Isak, so I’m struggling to come up with someone worthy. My best guess, if Isak doesn’t sign, is that we will make a move on Rodrygo as he can play across the front three. If we do that I expect we will keep our powder dry on another striker while we regroup and see what emerges. Perhaps we go back for Isak, or perhaps someone emerges who we like the look of?
FWIW I think we will sign Isak.

Isak: I want to leave Newcastle. I will never play for them again.
Eddie Howe: Alexander needs to decide what he wants.

Maybe his agent has to give up his fees if that is indeed the case and the formal request has to go in.

Howe obviously wants the Isak situation resolved. Isak wants to leave and has apparently made it clear he has no plan to reintegrate. Seems to make it clear that this is only heading in one direction.
Is it possible that a player could return? Never say never, of course. But usually, when it gets this far, separation is the end result.
And pigs fly

Do we really think he would be anymore loyal at LFC. Newcastle have put him on the map after one good season but with several injuries.

I’m not sure he is worth all the hype he seems to have in himself.
