I am very confident this will happen.

- We are widely reported to be willing to throw serious dough on the table

- Real have backed out according to various sources including Marca

- According to Marca, United are his first choice anyway.

I am near-certain this will be done but it may take a while to finalise.
Thanks buddy. I believe signing Pogba will be a huge statement of intent, although I must say that I have been discouraged by his performance in the Euros.
 
If he does not join us, some of you may need to see a medical professional.
I wasn't around at the time of the Wesley Sneijder thread, but I can't believe it was as bad as this.
 
If Pogba wasn't interested in a move to us then he would have killed the question stone dead with "I respect Utd but I am happy to stay at Juve."

He didn't though. It's like when we all knew Ronny was off with his "Only God knows" rubbish. He knew was off to Real but didn't want to disrespect us.

This is so on. Too many factors point to him moving to us rather than staying at Juventus, put it that way.

Pogba may well be indifferent to a move. Its more likely he'd move if the offer was accepted, and would happily stay if it wasn't. Its more comparable to Beckham's quotes when he originally left United, saying that he'll only leave if United want him to.

Ronaldo likened his last year at United to a slave. He wanted Real, badly, and it showed.

Schneider had a fixed position he was established world class in, too :lol:

Don't be. The one or two times he was allowed to go foward, he put two great balls in the box and scored from a corner. He's played the role with discipline but that's like putting a great painting in the toilet.
 
He could have just come out and said I'm staying at Juve or Juve themselves could have said Pogba isn't leaving, done delio this. Also the silence in this saga makes me thing its done, if it wasn't, surely Mou would have started pursuing other targets, given he wants to get things over quickly.
Wouldn't help his case in getting a new bumper contract though.

having seen the real quotes it is obvious he is coming here. We are in with a big chance.

It can easily be interpreted as him looking for a new contract too.

Why would he have to look for a new contract? It was rumored that Juventus wanted to offer him an extention...but why not? He's got 3 years left. This is the obvious time, so I don't think Pogba would have to look for a new contract.
 
This thread is hilarious, has it all. Only need a signed ball now

Sniejder and Vidal were worse because it was unanimously accepted they were both world class talents that would immediately improve our gaping hole in midfield, so the fallout was more epic.

Not everyone seems to be convinced on spending a huge amount of Pogba, so I wager there'd be less muppet suicides than the aforementioned two sagas.

Yes, but his reluctance to move out a rule coupled with the fact they are has been no news about us pursuing other targets makes me think he's OT bound. Also most of the high profile reporters are saying he's coming. I'm positive we'll see him in a United top next season
 
I swear you've been saying he hasn't been coming from the start, so how are you beyond caring now lol.

Quote me where I've said that? There's plenty of *Martial* names on here, i think you have me confused :) - dammit there's another post wasted :(

Let's not forget the Thiago saga. Muppet suicide rate went up 170%.

Or he is happy in Juventus but wants to earn as much as a grade A commercial entity does in football. The best way to engineer that is threaten to leave a la Rooney.

If I was Pogba right now, i'm be asking why i'm not being respected for my Juventus form rather then what happened at the Euros? He can stay in Serie A but the only good thing Juventus have for them currently is the Champions League. We're in worse shape but we're making positive changes so am optimistic.

I am just offering a different and possibly legitimate interpretations of developments.

Much worse
 
Revenge is very strong motivator.

All of Zlatan, Pogba and Raiola has a point to prove by being part of Mourinho's project.

Zlatan has never been fully appreciated in England. Pundits, media and many supporters doubt his ability to succeed in the PL. This is his last chance, his last mission. A challange like this is something a true warrior like Ibra never will resist. Succeed with United and his carrier is completed.

Paul Pogba probably don't have any bad feeling against Sir Alex. But the threatment he got from he old man can still hurt for a young ambitious man. Now he have a great opportunity to came back as the golden boy, the savior, in a new project together with a new manager. That could be, off course, together with tons of money, motivator enough to leave Juve. Maybe being recognized as a world class player by United (and Sir Alex) restore a little bit of his his pride.

Sir Alex called Mino Raiola the worst agent he ever have dealed with. Even if you're successful that line hurts. Being labeled with so much bad words by the Godfather of football probably have a huge impact on your ego. After all even Raiola is human being and his job is to look after his clients. Suddenly he's part of two, maybe three, mega transfers where his clients join United. That's means a lot, from his perspective it's a huge revenge.

I have read tho book about Zlatan and both him and Mino are similar personalities. They both had to fight to be something. They both think highly of themselves, have huge egos but deep deep down inside them you can see two insecure characters who tries to survive in a cruel world. Zlatan talks with pride about his father, his background, his shortcomings and his family. Mino Raiola does the same. They are both two simple men (in positive way) who tries to do the best of their talents.

I can be totally wrong but I think pride, revenge and hunger to prove your doubters wrong is a huge factor when you take big decisions. That's my take on these things.
 
Very Impressed that he speaks 4 languages!
And Micky speaks 6 plus Zlatan played in Sweden, Netherlands, Italy and France (and he speaks English)

I see a trend here :drool:
 
Can Juventus afford anywhere near the rumoured £250,000 after tax that we're offering in wages?
 
Pogba is really milking the attention but it doesn't seem like he is that keen on United. If it was Madrid in the driving seat he would have been dropping hints in the press already
 
Worst transfer window ever.

Oh dear god, it was just terrible. Awful summer altogether, Fergie left, we brought in fecking Moyes, were linked with quality players all summer and ended up with Fellaini on deadline day. Grim.
