    Just read a rumour that Newcastle wants £180 million for Isak. If that’s not “fuck off” money then I don’t know what is.

    He’s a very good striker, but I think we can do better.

      For what it’s worth, Charles Watts has been very skeptical about this rumour. I hope he’s right. Rashford is very good player, and a great guy. But he is not what we need. I’m guessing this is his agent trying to shop him around, and using us to entice other clubs to make a bid. God knows the poor bastard wants to get the hell out of the red side of Manchester while Ten Haag is at the wheel.

      Must admit, when I saw the headline my first thought was “uh oh, what’s Ivan toney done this time?”

      But yeah, Paqueta had better hope the Saudis come in for him. Because I don’t see many other options for his career. What a fool.
