Re: Newcastle statement for Isak leaving

I’m just disappointed that Saudi PIF didn’t stick to their guns and not sell him. That would have reminded players who pays their ridiculous salaries.

You shouldn't need VAR for she-ite tackles like that. Never mind a red card, he should be done for assault. Only one thing on his mind when he set off on that run - fellow professional's career at risk with that.

Our season won’t be defined by the games against the top 8 or so (where I expect Spuds to be). Our season will be defined by the results against the bottom half. Beat the those at the bottom and you won’t be there yourself.
