Wor Flags hit back at ungrateful Alexander Isak in classless Liverpool interview

The dust is beginning to settle on one of the most dramatic transfers in recent Premier League history, but for many Newcastle United fans, the emotional wounds are still fresh.

The departure of Alexander Isak to Liverpool for a British record fee was always going to be a tough pill to swallow.

However, what has turned disappointment into outright anger is the manner in which the Swedish striker has chosen to conduct himself since the move became official.

Across a seven-minute introductory interview with his new club, in subsequent social media posts, and in his official statement on Liverpool’s website, Isak has not uttered a single word of thanks, acknowledgment, or respect towards the Newcastle United fanbase.

This glaring omission feels like a deliberate and final snub to the supporters who idolized him from the moment he arrived on Tyneside.

It mirrors his earlier statement last month, which also lacked any form of apology or gratitude, effectively ignoring the very people who cheered his every goal.

This feels particularly painful because of the unique relationship he shared with the fans. They didn’t just support him; they adored him.

They sang his name with passion, spent countless hours and thousands of pounds creating magnificent flag displays in his honor through the Wor Flags group, and granted him a legendary status at the club.

To completely blank them, to offer not even a cursory “thank you for the memories,” has been viewed as a classless and disgraceful act.

In a powerful and emotional response, the Wor Flags group has broken its silence. Their statement was short, but its message was cutting and clear.

They wrote: ‘You were idolised and adored by every generation of our brilliant fan base, legendary status. You have shown your true colours and thrown it right back in the face of those same supporters. Good riddance.’

This heartfelt backlash underscores a deep sense of betrayal. His actions, or lack thereof, are seen as the final chapter in a pattern of behavior that began towards the end of last season and continued throughout the summer.

While players have every right to pursue their ambitions, how they handle their departure speaks volumes about their character.

Compare this silence to the words he eagerly shared with his new audience. He spoke of feeling “amazing,” of his pride in joining Liverpool, and of his excitement to meet the fans and teammates there.

He talked about what he has to give and his desire to “win everything.” There is a stark and painful contrast between his enthusiasm for the future and his silence about the past.

For a fanbase that gave him nothing but unconditional love, this feels like a deeply ungrateful and selfish way to end a chapter that, for them, was filled with passion and pride.

The transfer itself is business; the way it has been handled feels deeply personal. The legacy of a player’s time at a club is about more than just goals scored; it’s about the respect shown on the way out, and on that count, many feel Alexander Isak has failed miserably.
