@harrydecosemo The kind of under-the-radar, non-premier league transfer we've been hoping for all summer. Back to the glory days of the transfer policy - this is how all our best signings post-takeover have happened. No endless rumors and endless bids. 100% credit to the recruitment team.

Woltemade being seen more as an Isak replacement, it seems. PIF on Tyneside, amazing how quick things can move. More reaction tomorrow. ⚫️⚪️🎙️#NUFC

@harrydecosemo Assuming things are as they seem (Isak is basically okay with Eddie) the chairman can help here by being the bad guy and telling Isak no way out. Then Eddie can put something constructive on the table for Isak - one more year, we've all grown closer through this etc etc.

The strongest, most important person at #NUFC is Eddie Howe. Ask yourself this: what is more likely, Isak is sold & the skeletal hierarchy replaces him & gets other targets? Or Isak stays and Howe reintegrates him? Evidence is so clear.

@harrydecosemo Is our transfer inactivity a choice as much as PSR driven? Aston Villa (a comparable club?) sell and buy more. Howe seems to like a stable group (and line up) and maybe would rather improve a known in-house player than add a risky new face. Anything in that in your view?

Won’t be my usual Monday video today. Instead I’ll wait until tomorrow to analyse #NUFC’s overall position after the window shuts & ahead of cup double header. Any questions? 👇🏼

Please see my latest @MLInstitute policy paper on Syria: "Western nations must remain vigilant about the new Syrian government, which is led by a group, HTS, that adheres to Salafi jihadism. It will be best to take a “wait-and-see approach..." 3/1 macdonaldlaurier.ca/syrias-upheava…

@CanbolatSercan @axios @astridgalvan @isanet @UConnGlobal @UConn @UConnCLAS Important to shine a light on the challenges facing international scholars. For many, the immigration process is *at least* as stressful as the Ph.D. / job search process, if not more....

Caveat: this post includes a personal story in lieu of academic one. 🤓Happy to be quoted in this timely @axios story on the sensibilities of international scholars on the eve of the 2nd Trump admin. t.ly/mdiH2 H/T @astridgalvan @isanet @UConnGlobal @UConn @UConnCLAS
