Shearer Believes in Isak’s Newcastle Reconciliation…
Alan Shearer, the legendary Newcastle figure, believes that Alexander Isak might just make a grand comeback in his black and white pajamas. Despite Isak, who’s a ripe 25 years old, telling the Magpies he’ll never play dress-up for them again after they snubbed Liverpool’s $149.1 million love letter, there’s still a chance he might say, “Oops, my bad!” and wiggle back into the team. Liverpool has given Newcastle a week to make a move before they start courting other football Romeos. Shearer insists any reconciliation dance must happen before the transfer window waves goodbye.
Shearer’s keen insights on Match of the Day suggest the ball’s in Isak’s court, and if he doesn’t play it right, there might just be no ball left to play with. Newcastle’s still fumbling through striker options like a penguin on roller skates, having missed stars like Benjamin Sesko, who’s skipping happily with Manchester United now. Saturday’s match against Aston Villa saw Anthony Gordon trying to play striker like a giraffe on a unicycle, with Harvey Barnes and Anthony Elanga keeping him company. Meanwhile, Alan Howe might just channel his inner Oprah, thinking another heart-to-heart with Isak could convince him to tango back into the Newcastle frenzy.
