Whilst Isaq will be a good signing rom an overall team point of view is he really what we need? We are short at CB DM and some who can run at a defender with speed and trickery. Yes ww have options such as gomez at CB but they are not sustainable if we want to challenge on four fronts. Move on from Isaq and invest elsewhere!

This is just deliberate now, Isaq?

And how do you know what we need? Slot clearly has a plan for what he wants to do with isak. Moving on from him when he has done as much as he can to force a move to us, alienating himself from the Newcastle squad and fans, seems a pretty crap thing to do too.

Speed and trickery? Not sure what you mean here. Do you mean someone like isak or someone like wirtz or even ekitike. Or did you have one else in mind?
03 Aug 2025 07:33:03
Have you even seen videos of Wirtz, Ekitike, Rio or Frimpong?

“Someone who can run at a defender with speed and trickery”? Who is Wirtz then? Jon Healy in disguise? We all know we need a CB, there’s weeks left in the window and we’re pursuing a top top player in Isak. Stop whining. Additionally we have Endo as a back up DM, he’s maybe not everyone’s cup of tea but it’s obviously not seen as pressing as other areas.

We don't need a DM because that's not how Slot plays and sets up. When we close our games we use Endo. Honestly bored of how many times this comes up. Slot doesn't play with a destroyer type DM so we aren't going to buy one.
After Isac or alternative it will be CB or two then we're done.

We have seen some spellings of a 4 letter name but this is a new one.

Isaq, Isaac, Isak - a man of many taglines.
03 Aug 2025 07:27:24
Isak!

On this subject, somebody needs to do a compilation of the various mis-spellings of Szoboszlai on this board haha.

Mamardashvili is another one, although not many people have a crack at the full name, presumably it’s a concentration span thing.
