In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.

My thoughts. Seems strange that they cut out the money shot.
"Juve is my home, my family". On it's own, on live TV when being asked to sign a Juve shirt doesn't seem too conclusive.
It cuts off.
Those quotes might actually be real
It cuts off. Those quotes might be fake.
I can't blame him really. We treated him like shit and he's playing in the CL next year. Maybe we can get Cleverley, Ando or Fletcher back instead.
What a bullshit.

He seems to be being asked about his feelings towards them when the shirt is brought out the bag, but I'm only going by a few picked up words.

If he actually said "wanted to stay", where are the massive news headlines? If he said that on prime time during an award coverage, surely someone has covered it by now? All we're getting is a cut off video.
Change the bloody record.
Yeah a quick scoop on Twitter and the 2nd part of what Pogba says isn't in video anywhere.
Surely they'd have the video up and someone would have posted it. The Juve blogger seems to have fabricated the quotes where he says he wants to stay.
He would obviously say something pro Juve. What's it with footballerss talking about home and family! Ronaldo does it. Jose does it. Don't forget, they want him to sign an extention. There's a lot of contradictions and as rightly pointed out by many - you don't cut off the money shot. After yesterdays 'meeting with ibra'....we're just watching a shit play. Bragging rights. It was an awkward situation but one Pogba was probably aware of before the event. Hopefully
It cuts off.

Pogba to ESPYS: "Juve is my home, my family, there they very happy and I want to stay."
I think its fake...

Yet again, post a photo and attach a fake quote. No proof there. This guy posting isn't at the award ceremony, just watching on TV.
We did. He under deservingly ended up at the end of the queue to accommodate SAF's boys
What's the latest on this? Haven't been following the past 5 days or so because the mood seemed to be changing and I couldn't put up with the meltdown on here.
I suspect you'll see plenty of quotes likes this. One thing I would say is Raiola will want to keep relations with Juve positive, therefore, I suspect they will toe the line. Juve may want to get business done first, therefore, having a player agitate for a move is of no help. If it's going to happen then I would think it's already agreed. However, it's a big if.
The video has the presenters bring out Real Madrid and Manchester United jerseys too.
I believe the presenters ask him if Mourinho rings him to join United, what's your response?
Need someone who can fully translate the video.

Shouldn't that quote from the website say something like "but he said he was staying at Juve"?
I think there is some fibbing going on.
So it's a lie all juventus fans are massive wums he didn't say anything about that he was staying. He calls juventus his family and Ronaldo does the same for us in the end that changes nothing.
If its in Italian, send it to me and I will translate it to all. @JPRouve will probably assist if its in French
lol what kind of freak show is this. Talk about awkward. And the actual quotes regarding madrid/united - might not be accurate (whatever they are said to be). These quotes are coming from one angle. The Italian angle
Juve fans love a fake quote don't they? It is like Vidal all over again. Desperate buggers.
Do we have anyone that can translate this yet?
I see the muppets had a long night... 
Gotta love the transfer window!

According to calciomercato, United have yet to place a bid for Pogba. Meanwhile he's only focusing on his holidays.

Bear in mind that I doubt this is random. Him and his agent were probably made aware of what would happen on the show and his agent would have advised him. So you'll hear pro all options anyway. There's nothing organic here. An agent isn't going to risk his player being made a mug of on tv (or say something he perhaps shouldn't) so I wouldn't take what the quotes are to heart.
Ehm...SAF`s boys,if he wanted to become SAF`s boy,he should sign a new contract,show that being coached under GOAT manager and playing for club like United is worth waiting for for a bit longer. Think that if he signed new contract with us,SAF would see that as commitment and he would get his chances more and more but he decided to leave on similar way like he left his prev. club to join us. On top of that,his cnut agent also had his own interest so here we are now.
You'd have thought they could have got a new united shirt to show him, well at least last seasons and not the 13/14 one.
This thread is brilliant. Thanks Chinnman
This is a done deal. Don't you think if Pogba had zero intention of leaving Juve that he wouldn't have put the rumours to bed ages ago? This is going on for weeks now, literally weeks! Juve will never ever turn down the kind of ridiculous money we are offering, just never! And do you think a player like Pogba wouldn't want to be the first 100M player in the history of football? Cmon lads, this is so done.
In order for this to be confirmed we need to offer one of you muppets as a sacrifice to appease the transfer gods.

Why should he wait behind sick people, old people, right backs and shit players when he can move to Juventus and become first teamer almost immediately? We're not the only big club around and some of them actually appreciate talent over nepotism.
The one begging and throwing money at to join is not Pogba but Manchester United. So seriously, he won and we lost...big time.
We didn’t treat him like shit. Fergie didn’t give him the game time he wanted and maybe deserved. But that doesn’t mean we treated him like shit. He wouldn’t speak that good about the club and the city if he would feel that way. Always these exaggerations.
Can't embed but;
Update: Having found another video, when Pogba is handed the Manchester Untied, he says it was his “first family” and then when asked if they telephoned would he return, he said “I don’t know, we’ll see, we’ll see”.

Of course we treated him like shit. Let put things clear, if we had a Paul Scholes and a Roy Keane in their prime backed by Beckham and Butt (also in their prime) then losing Pogba because we cant give him games would have been considered as correlated damage. However that's not the case. SAF has a shit CM with just 1 decent midfielder in it and despite our CM was in shambles he went into great lengths (calling players out of retirement and playing right backs there) to keep Pogba out. That was feckin idiotic.
Ultimately Pogba won and we lost...big time. We're the ones throwing millions at him to return and he's doing well in torturing us and expecting us to pay top money for it.
Its ironic that some (including myself) criticize Mou for letting De Bruyne go for cheap when our legend left a potential 100m worth of talent go on free because he couldn't bother giving him games especially considering the type of shite he had in our CM at the time

Can you post a link and not embed?
That's more like it.
I changed my vote to "yes I would be happy." He is better than what we have and will most definitely get stronger. He has high resale value if he doesn't do the biz. I would love to see him mugging off the likes of Jordan Henderson and Co. 1 Galactico per season will allow us to build a monster team. Martial was oour future galactico last year, Pogba could be this years. Both are super young and will improve. The only thing is that I cannot help thinking that Juve robbed one of our youngsters for £800,000 and are selling him back to us for £100,000,000 4 years later. That is taking liberties.
Can go to bed nicely now that those quotes are seemingly fake.
