Newcastle must stand firm and rebuff Liverpool's effort to sign Alexander Isak for the good of the Premier League.

We’ve already lived through the dull years when Manchester City steamrolled their way to title after title, barely breaking a sweat.

And it drained the drama out of a league that built its reputation on being the most competitive in the world.

Liverpool will do the same if they finally land a world-class No.9.

We want a competitive league and Isak moving to Anfield would make them untouchable.

Plus, Newcastle have hinted at bringing back 4-4-2.

James' Park suggest they want to play Isak and with another striker - potentially Hugo Ekitike - if they can land the Frankfurt forward.

Selling Isak would be waving the white flag.

The Toon must resist - and keep the Premier League alive.
