Newcastle United have had some remarkably tricky players over the years.

David Ginola, Hatem Ben-Arfa, Allan Saint-Maximin, Newcastle absolutely love a trickster.

The Magpies have transformed under Eddie Howe into more of a pressing side who dominate the game through physical ability rather than pure skill, but, at the same time, there’s still a bit of room for expression.

Indeed, Newcastle still have some very tricky players, and according to Bruno Guimaraes, Alexander Isak is the most skilful player in training on Tyneside.

Guimaraes spoke about the 24-year-old and how tricky he is in training.

“Who is the most skilful player in training

“Isak,” Guimaraes said.

Alexander Isak must be a nightmare in training

We can’t even begin to ponder what it’s like to play against Isak in training

The Swedish striker is a massive handful in every single game he plays, and when the pressure is off on the training ground we can only imagine the types of trick he tries to pull off.

Isak is a player who can make you look foolish in a number of ways, he can tie you up in knots with his quick feet or he can leave you in his wake with his incredible pace.

Isak is one of the most dynamic and most frightening strikers we’ve ever seen in the Premier League, and we don’t envy any Newcastle player who has to go up against him in training, that’s for sure.
