Woods roasts Alexander Isak’s tantrum tactics…
Laura Woods, Arsenal’s unofficial comedian and sports presenter, has roasted Liverpool’s transfer target Alexander Isak for his antics akin to a toddler in a toy store trying to get a shiny new move from Newcastle United. Isak has been playing peek-a-boo with the squad, refusing to show up on the pitch while Newcastle and Liverpool stare each other down in a Mexican standoff more intense than a cowboys’ showdown at high noon. Newcastle’s hopes might rest on signing Jorgen Strand Larsen and Yoane Wissa, possibly finally unlocking the door to Isak’s departure.
Woods, wielding her wit like a razor-sharp quill, has labeled Isak’s disappearing act as distasteful, something even Houdini would envy. Isak has been keeping himself as elusive as a cat in a game of hide and seek, sitting out the starts against Aston Villa and Liverpool, and probably planning a disappearing tour against Leeds United as well. Despite his 54 goals in 86 appearances, Isak’s dramatic breaks might make more fan clubs quit than a soap opera’s shocking season finale. So, whether he lands at Liverpool or not, Woods humorously suggests his tantrum has him crashing down the Premier League’s favorite charts.
