Alan Shearer slates Newcastle's 'nightmare' summer amidst Isak's impending departure
It's fair to say that no team ever wins the Premier League in the transfer window, but you can certainly lose it in the transfer window and it seems like Newcastle United aren't on the trajectory to the top of the Premier League table. After finishing fifth and qualifying for the Champions League, many had The Magpies as dark horses to compete for the title this season if they recruited well. And while adding squad pieces like Anthony Elanga and Aaron Ramsdale has improved their depth, the countless rejections and this now impending Alexander Isak departure has casted a dark cloud over their season. With rumoured failures to sign James Trafford, Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbuemo, Benjamin Sesko, Hugo Ekitike and more, it appears that Newcastle mightn't have the pull many thought they would have when they were bought by the Saudi Public Investment Fund in 2021. Alexander Isak. Pic:And with the drama surrounding Alexander Isak and the Swede's desire to leave Newcastle for Liverpool. He has already told the club that he'll never play for them again according to David Ornstein of The Athletic after they rejected a British record fee from Liverpool earlier this month and banning him from training with the first team. He has now returned to first team training however, but it still remains that Newcastle look like they couldn't have prepared worse for the season if they tried. It's left a lot of fans and pundits disappointed including former Toon legend Alan Shearer. Alexander Isak. Pic:'So far, Newcastle's pre-season has been a nightmare. There is no other way of describing it' Shearer said in his BBC column. The ex-England captain then goes on to describe that Newcastle seemingly decided not to replace two key members in terms of recruiting players in Sporting Director Darren Eales and Sporting Director Paul Mitchell. 'Newcastle went into the summer with no chief executive or sporting director, which I find amazing. They knew Darren Eales was stepping down as chief executive last September – 11 months ago – and Paul Mitchell left as sporting director at the end of June.' Alan Shearer. Pic: Serena Taylor/Newcastle United via Getty Images 'I don't know why they haven't appointed anyone yet or if that has hindered them in the transfer market, because I am not inside the club, but from the outside it is not a good look. It's a mess, and it begs the question about who has been making the big decisions.' It's been far from ideal preparation for Newcastle as they are looking towards Brentford's Yoann Wissa and Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins as potential Isak replacements. They get their season underway away at Villa this Saturday, with kick off at 12:30pm live on TNT Sports.

Former Premier League referee David Coote given eight-week ban over Jürgen Klopp comments
Former Premier League referee David Coote has been given an eight-week suspension and told to attend an education programme over abusive words he used about ex- Liverpool head coach Jürgen Klopp . Coote was charged by the English Football Association in June after the comments about Klopp came to light in a video circulated on social media last November. The FA said he had subsequently admitted the charge. Coote's misconduct was defined as an aggravated breach under the FA's rules because there was a reference to Klopp's nationality. Coote was sacked by Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) last December, a month after the video filmed in July 2020 came to light. READ MORE PGMOL said in confirming Coote's dismissal last December that his position had become 'untenable'. In it, Coote is heard saying it had been 's**t' to be fourth official at a Liverpool match in the summer of 2020, describing Klopp as a 'German c**t'. He also said Klopp was 'f*****g arrogant'. When the FA charged him over the Klopp comments in June, the governing body said Coote would face no further action in regard to separate allegations of gambling misconduct, which he had strenuously denied. The FA said those allegations had been fully investigated. Coote was banned by European football's governing body Uefa in February until June 30th, 2026 after a different video emerged of him snorting a white powder through a bank note while in Germany for last summer's Euros. In January, Coote came out as gay in an interview with the Sun and said that a lifelong struggle to hide his sexuality had contributed to the rant about Klopp, and to his drug use. 'My sexuality isn't the only reason that led me to be in that position. But I'm not telling an authentic story if I don't say that I'm gay and that I've had real struggles with hiding that,' he said. 'I hid my emotions as a young ref and I hid my sexuality as well – a good quality as a referee but a terrible quality as a human being. And that's led me to a whole course of behaviours.' Coote's formal response to the FA charge was detailed in the regulatory commission's written reasons which were published alongside the confirmation of the sanctions imposed. He accepted his words about Klopp were 'crass, inappropriate and unworthy of the role that he held within the game' and asked the commission to accept that his decision not to attend the hearing was not made out of avoidance, but due to his mental state. Coote said the words did not respect his true view of Klopp, for whom he had always had a deep professional respect. The panel wrote: 'DC [Coote] stated that he felt an immense sense of shame. He had lost a career that formed the very core of his identity. He had lost all his income and the media attention had deepened his sense of humiliation and despair. 'He was trying to piece his life back together, from a place of near total collapse.'

"I have no interest in speaking to someone who is f***ing arrogant. So I do my best not to speak to him. James Milner is all right, I get on with him. "You can see me there with a 'mask' on. But, my god, German c***, f*** me."
