Smells like Newcastle vs Spurs final. Two teams without a trophy for decades. Still better option than other two semifinalists.

He only turned 25 a few months ago and hasn't played alongside elite players, so those are aspects that he could certainly improve on with more quality around him.

Yup he likely deserves a shot at an elite club, which brings my other point: Newcastle may have "elite" owners, but they are far from an Elite club; not only the lack of investment, having some very glaring weak links in their starting XI, but also the way they play. Isaak (as well as Gordon) thrive in that counter-attacking style, but it can be very different at a top club especially one which sees a lot of possession.

Still, agree that he deserves that shot based on what he's been doing.

that was great press by Newcastle tho. And Arsenal D line has been very shaky today.

Least can say we went out to a finalist...
