11 h. ago ‘Forever grateful’: Isak makes belated attempt to rebuild bridges at Newcastle

£125m striker thanks former teammates and staff‘It has been an honour Thank you, Newcastle’Alexander Isak has made a belated attempt to rebuild bridges at Newcastle by thanking his former teammates, St James’ Park staff and the club’s fans for their support during his three years on Tyneside.When Isak joined Liverpool for £125m on Monday evening the Sweden striker departed a squad and a city thoroughly disillusioned by his decision not to train with or play for Eddie Howe’s team for the majority of this summer. Ultimately that tactic succeeded in forcing the move to Anfield he had long craved but, along the way, a player who scored 27 times for Newcastle last season shredded his reputation there.

Swede is not a classic central striker, but could his signing herald tactical tweaks and what does it mean for Salah?On the face of it, it’s not hard to see why Liverpool would want Alexander Isak. He will not turn 26 until later this month and has scored more than 20 Premier League goals in each of the past two seasons, something matched only by Erling Haaland. But he offers more than just goals; he’s a very modern centre-forward.Thirty or 40 years ago, when 4-4-2 was still the dominant formation, strike pairings tended to come in two forms: either target-man and finisher, or creator and finisher.
