David Ornstein: Alexander Isak is 'simply not available' for Arsenal | Premier League | NBC Sports

When is Saka joining Newcastle?

Anyone who remotely thought he would be attainable for Arsenal in Jan is deluded.

Isak to Arsenal is an absolute nothing story, it shouldn't even be getting discussed. It's because the media have nothing about a striker transfer to Arsenal so they make up stories.

[@blueshadow62]

Arsenal didn’t even bid…they can’t buy nobody now‼️

Finally clearing that out. But when is Saka joining Newcastle?

[@therealking6202]

The media has created this "Isak to Arsenal" story...yet everyone keeps hating on Arsenal fans for it. It's fkn ridiculous. Not a single Arsenal fan thought it was possible. Sort of like saying "I'd like to drive a Ferrari" doesn't mean you're actually serious about buying a Ferrari. Then you have Ornstein coming on, "There's no way he's going to buy a Ferrari." Like, no kidding.. Thanks for clearing that up Dave.

[@aaronjamespeedruns]

Its hard not to hate on SOME Arsenal fans. Look at X for example, every post Isak scores "Isak to Arsenal who says no", "Isak needs to come to a bigger club". SOME Arsenal fans are unbearable with it. The media created it, fuelled by SOME fans who've made it more of a story to clickbait.

[@therealking6202]

@aaronjamespeedruns I'm not on that cesspool X, which is probably why. I bet half those people aren't even Arsenal fans. The other half probably aren't even human...lol...

[@aaronjamespeedruns]

@therealking6202 oh yeah, 100% a lot of them are rage baiting for clicks and revenue. But the media won't know that. They just see the stats, the drama it all causes so keep piling on. Hence why I said what I said.

[@Chip_in]

[@containedhurricane]

Not the best attacking, but the most powerful trio because of their statures and paces. France, Spain, Brazil and Argentina also have dangerous attackers

[@mthornton4096]

The Isak to Arsenal has been manufactured by the media to keep them relevant . Even this ‘£150 million’ price tag was cooked up by a journalist. It’s starting to make Arsenal look a bit pathetic now. I’m under no illusion that Isak will probably leave us at some point. The guy has 3.5 years left on a contract though. So he ain’t leaving anytime soon. Move on folks

[@user-im2te2fg9y]

more chance of saka to newcastle... then isaks with the better team

[@highburyslocalbadger8130]

Hiring a sporting director based on friendship rather than merit is unprofessional and harms Arsenal's success. A sporting director must have expertise in talent ID, negotiations, and squad building. Arteta hiring "mates" fosters favouritism, not excellence, leading to: Lack of Accountability: Friends won’t challenge poor decisions. Missed Opportunities: Without an experienced leader, elite talents slip away. Stagnation: Favouritism stifles innovation, leaving Arsenal behind its rivals. Arsenal needs a world-class sporting director to pair with proven leadership, not personal loyalty. Kroenke’s errors: Lack of ambition, rewarding mediocrity, and backing an inexperienced manager like Arteta instead of proven winners like Ancelotti or Zidane. No major trophies since 2007 despite heavy spending shows no love or understanding for the game. Arteta’s failures: Poor tactics, weak player management, and failure to deliver results despite £700m spent. No major honours prove he’s out of his depth. Arteta’s refusal to secure elite strikers is killing our attack. Cunha isn’t coming, Sesko isn’t coming, and Zubimendi is heading to Real Madrid. Meanwhile, he dodges world-class strikers like Osimhen, Gyökeres, Openda, Benzema, and Icardi-players who can transform our frontline. Without ambition and top-tier goal scorers, Arsenal will remain stuck in mediocrity. This failure in talent ID will cost Arteta his job and set the club back even further. Arsenal deserves better leadership-sack Arteta now and restore this club’s legacy.

[@myerg2977]

Atleast its not joe kinnear

[@joelthomson8697]

As if it's taken this long for Arsenal and their fans to cotton on to the idea that signing Isak was every going to happen. Was the £150m valuation three weeks ago not a bit of a MASSIVE hint?!

[@astrothelad]

Lol no real arsenal fan thought it would happen, as much as we love Isak. You also have the other side which is the owners and board are clearly persnickety about spending

[@MuhammadIbrahim-el9pi]

Arsenal have no ambition to win big trophies let’s be honest

[@Afterthoughtbtw]

Do Arsenal even have the money available? They vastly outspend Liverpool on wages, so it's hard to believe they have that much room on finances to play with. I can't imagine the likes of Isak would be affordable either in terms of wages or transfer fee? It feels like Arsenal need to bring in a striker before they get to that price, rather than bringing them in once they have got there.

[@Amberle38]

Arsenal do not "vastly outspend" Liverpool on wages or anything else. Stop talking absolute nonsense, Liverpool's wage bill was higher than Arsenal's until very recently, & there's not much in it now.

[@homoerectus3355]

Liverpools wage bill is literally higher than Arsenals you melt

[@GermanChickenwing]

I dont get this Isak narrative to Arsenal. Newcastle owners want to win and be better than Arsenal

[@matthiasleiss4807]

What narrative. Arsenal are the bigger club and are better project wise in the last few years. If Arsenal are willing to spend big money why not? It's just about Arsenal not wanting to pay up.

[@matthiasleiss4807]

You think Newcastle owner wouldn't sell, not even for 200mil?

Injuries as well. I'd be pissed if Arsenal pay £150 mil for Isak, and he starts getting plagued with injuries at crucial points. They could get both Sesko and Gyokeres for the same money.

[@YuzzFon]

Isak the best actor I have seen in the sense of a complete actor. Game vision, left right foot, head game, accurate passes. Exploiting zero situations for goals. Just a player I've never seen and I've been watching football for 35 years. The problem is that, with the exception of Bruno, most of the staff and players in Newcastle are mediocre players. A good game happens once a month. Very weak players for those who understand football. Yasak needs to move to a competitive team, a team with means.

[@Lazfah]

Give your head a wobble.

[@mycoshe]

Isak would be stupid to sign a contract extension with Newcastle. Arsenal or Newcastle? Just ask Harry Kane about regrets.

[@joelthomson8697]

Newcastle* :) And it's really not as simple as that. Arsenal 'project' is failing. Newcastle project is still very much in it's early days and is way ahead of schedule. Revenues have already doubled since the takeover. We're out of our PSR hole for at least another three years, and we're already competing regularly for domestic trophies and champions league finishes. Also, not to be overly romantic, but every player who has played for Newcastle, with the exception of Michael Owen, has absolutely loved their time here. Not everyone wants to live in London.
