I like Isak. Can he score enough goal is a question but I think for Arteta or the next coach coming in he will have a hell of lot more to work with than with Auba and Laca.

Yeah I’m getting winger that has probably been told to play upfront because he’s 6’4 and can shoot vibes."TaLl LACazZettE"

Isak has actually said he looked up to Henry and has tried to emulate him.
Could seriously bang under the right manager.

they sure have some transfer filters on... third solid striker link in a row now u23 & >1.90m
Scamacca, Rafa Mir or Umar Sadiq link next
Don't, as a Rangers fan I've got nightmares still about Sadiq. He had 1 performance in a semi final against Aberdeen that still gets used as a joke here in Scotland.

We have Laca and Eddie as CF's... that wouldn't be hard.

I can see us banging in crosses and wonder why he is so bad in the air

Yeah exactly so I don't really get the negativity in this thread towards him. The striker market is very very shallow right now imo and out of all the ones we've been linked with, this guy excites me the most. Sure his price is high but he ain't getting any cheaper and neither are any of the others we're linked with. You can take a chance on a Cabral and hope he explodes, sounds sensible from a price point but it's a big step up for him. Vlahovic from the sound of it wants nothing to do with us so I dunno where we can go with that. We're between a rock and a hard place right now in terms of striker, if we keep our powder dry we're definitely not gonna get top 4 which makes this summer hard to attract a top player once again.
Sometimes you've got to speculate to accumulate and I'm not too bothered about who, obviously I have my preferred, it's a case of are they better than what we have? and do they fit in with how we want to play? All the strikers that we're currently linked with, in my opinion, are far far better than what we have so I think we should just go for it, the ownership seems happy to fork the money over so **** it. Plus I can't sand to watch our dead strikers anymore. The potential benefit could be massive.

I might sound very negative towards Isak but it's not him per se I'm against. As a Swede I'd love to have a countryman in the team and even more so as CF. I think he's not bad either, but he's not performing to the levels he did last couple of years.
It's the combination of his current performances, that I believe he'd need time to adjust and more than anything the reported fee of 90m.
If we're just throwing money at the squad until we perform and it has no knock on effect on other signings then by all means, we should get him. Ideally though we'd go for someone like Cabral now and then go big in the summer.

Allot of his goals come from crosses and 4 out of his 40 RS goals are headers

4 of 40 headers for a player that’s 6’4 is terrible
I like him more than Vlahovic personally but it's a lot of money to pay for potential. I am very underwhelmed in general by the CF market, I don't really like any of them seriously.
Isak did get 17 non-penalty goals last season so it's not like he cannot score. He's playing for a pretty barren team creatively speaking and would probably have more goals if he was in a better team. I just don't know if we're in a position to take such a risk, but it looks like we're forced to play our hand here. I'd take him with cautious optimism.

A few years ago? His best season was only last season.
Also how many stealth Swedes are on this forum?
I would like Isak here but not for more than 40m i don't think he even worth that yet because he not proven like maybe Vlahovic his form is hot/cold since he was at Dortmund Not sure we'll take risk with him. Cabral even if I know nothing about never watch him play but at the moment is less risk than Isak its complicated because the striker options in market is very average

Where did I say a few years ago?
I said last couple of years, which includes last season..? At least it does in my book.
There’s quite of us I think.
Nice first name you have, btw
A lot, apparently. About 5 that I know of?
There were more, but one of them was a Nacho hater (and a racist), so no one misses him.

He also has Alexander spelled right unlike certain striker that plays for us!

What I don't understand is people have no problem with paying a premium for Vlahovic despite not being any less of a gamble than Isak. Vlahovic could very well fall into the same goalscoring form next season that Isak is currently having. It's not uncommon with young players.
I'd take Vlahovic here but it's pretty clear by now he has his mind set on Juventus.

Isak got 17 goals in back to back season with real Sociedad all competitions one of them was playing with 21 years Ødegaard. Could be nice potential link up specially when you have Martinelli ESR and Saka. But again the club must be too desperate to even attempt pay over his actual value

I think there is no chance we spend 90 million. Summer window
