'Move on' and 'not as keen' - fan views on Isak saga
We asked for your views on whether Alexander Isak will join Liverpool after the Newcastle striker and his club exchanged words regarding his are some of your comments:Dave: At the start of the transfer window, I would have seen Isak as a priority signing. With the arrival of Ekitike and Wirtz, and especially with how Isak has portrayed himself in the last month, I am nowhere near as keen. I actually think a centre-back signing is more important now Surely it's now 'when' not 'if', but then again we're waiting for Newcastle to sign at least one striker.

To show that attitude to your club is frankly not the behaviour of a player Liverpool should have. He will only do it to us in three years when Madrid come in for him.

We do, however, need another forward or two as we are looking a little light up front. I'm sure we'll get something done. As this window has shown, we actually have a good recruitment team. Newcastle's recruitment team is practically Can't trust him, what happens when he nears the end of a contract at Liverpool? Move on and get a defender, he's not for sale.
