Nick Woltemade may be many things. He is an aerial presence, an effective linker of the play and a proven finisher. But he is not Alexander Isak. Newcastle’s struggles in front of goal continued against Bournemouth in a third successive away goalless draw in the league and Eddie Howe admitted it would take time for his team to adapt to their new striker.“It’s a really strange occurrence, three 0-0s away from home for us,” Howe said. “We’re going to be a different team attacking-wise this year without Alex. I think that’s not why we haven’t scored in three away games but we’ll be attacking with a different emphasis. We’re evolving into a different team, hopefully a better team. That’s the plan. But it may take a bit of time.” Continue reading...

Two of the summer’s biggest transfer moves from Germany to the Premier League are starkly contrasting prospectsWhat must a footballer who costs €80m, €100m or more be able to do and prove? He should be a promising prospect at the age of 17 to 20; occupy a clear position on the pitch; be one of the five most important players in a team; perform consistently over many years; prove himself in international competition; and be physically strong. This applies to virtually all those players in this price range: Kylian Mbappé, Neymar, Ronaldo, Erling Haaland, Jude Bellingham and Ousmane Dembélé.Two German footballers moved to the Premier League for such a sum in the summer. One of them meets these criteria. Florian Wirtz’s career has been impressive. He caught the football’s attention as a teenager. It was only a matter of time before he made his breakthrough.
