funny how a day or two can just change things and perspective. Same Isaak is now signed with at least a 70% certainty that the signing is going to pull through. Newcastle not being in it best form is not the fault of a single player and regardless of how good Isaak is, they can actually grow and play well independent of him. they did very well against Liverpool and can still put up better play against any team they face this season without Isaak. the season is relatively fresh and even though they are not in the best spot on the table, there is every possibility that as the season progresses, with or without isaak, they can still do very well.
