According to Newcastle fans, it is us who Isak should be boycotting because had we not bought Ekitike Newcastle would already have the replacement they need and Isak would be a red.

There was this collective ‘ohhh’ 
as players checked their phones, and honestly, the looks on their faces were priceless, especially from the Liverpool players , pure surprise and excitement.
It’s like everyone knew something big was happening.
Michael Edwards has been given the green light by FSG to go for a British transfer record once
@NUFC
give the nod.
Liverpool and Newcastle officials are set to meet tomorrow morning to figure out the next steps and try to improve the relationships going forward.

There is going to be a lot of egg on a lot of faces when it comes out this was all a HUGE misunderstanding.
What Isak heard as, “You can go next year” was actually Eddie Howe saying, “You should go to Tynemouth Pier”.

Don’t really get the Newcastle end game here. He’s leaving sooner or later as clearly bridges have been burned.
They can hold onto him this window to spite him, and us, but to what end? They hope he’ll knuckle down, put in a shift and fire them to another trophy and CL campaign? Do they really think they can turn him back around from here?
Or, is it more likely that any attempts to prevent a move will be met with more statements like this, more disruption and simply keep the issue floating around until the next window, and the next, and the next.
Do they think we’re going to panic and suddenly up our offer by £50m to something close to what they’ve been suggesting would be a suitable fee? Will they even be able to spend another £50m on the right player given there’s two weeks of the window left? Or is it more likely we call their bluff. We can go buy another striker and leave them a huge issue to resolve but if they are open to selling him they need to get a move on.
Just seems ridiculous they haven’t come to the table, negotiated themselves a great fee and gone and spent that on two or three good players. The alternative is a disgruntled player kicking around until January with his value decreasing by the week.

Fuck these idiots. Let’s get a Diaz replacement, tie up Guehi and be done with this window.

Does he have the Saudis on speed dial?

Tend to agree. At least the Palace one is probably done. After all Palace seem able to actually operate as a football club.
Would like to hear who we have as possible alternatives.

There’s no leadership there. I think behEddie would sell, reinvest, and close this chapter right now. The owners, probably represented by Craig Cope, seem to be doubling down.
It’s the two Newcastle’s I mentioned above. Which one will prevail?
If there are talks tomorrow then hopefully we might see a breakthrough.

So basically, NUFC bad-mouthed Isak through all their media mouthpieces, were “going to explore” a sale, but now that Isak told his side of the story (after no doubt getting fed up with being vilified) they throw their toys out of the pram and will “definitely” not sell?
I don’t think they had any intention of selling Isak no matter the bid.
Let them fuck around and find out.
We need to end any dealings with these time wasters and bolster our attacking ranks.
Hugo is more than good enough down the middle.

I’m pretty confident Isak is going to unilaterally terminate. That seems to be where this is heading.

Can he do that? A few reports today say he can’t do this until June 2026 I think.
I’d agree with the popcorn emoji if we weren’t involved or Isak represented a luxury signing for us. We badly need at least one more senior attacker after losing Jota, Diaz, and Nunez. Toon army is right. Cartoonish behaviour.
If these shitheads try any dirty tackles at Anfield the ref better come down on them like a ton of bricks!

At the very latest he can do so a week today.

If he can terminate and it happens after September 1st, he will be able to sign as he’s a free agent, yes?

“This took Newcastle by surprise, cause they weren’t aware that Isak was about to make a statement.”
I mean, seriously…How rude of Isak not to inform them first
