Been on a plane and in airports for he past 24 hours. What have I missed and what is this about?
Honestly, for your sanity you're better off not knowing. There will be stories told to grandchildren about this thread.
 
For @Adisa who has missed the last 24 hours:

We officially placed our bid of 103/104M Euros, which was rejected.
The team went to China and a video of Jose showed a whiteboard in the back and people began to speculate the name of Pogba was on there.
Reports Juve wanted 120M euros and some add ons.
Big news broke across all Italian papers last night that Pogba asked Juve to let him leave.
Early reports this morning that the bid for around 120 went in and Juve will accept.

Essentially, it's happening and you've missed it all!
:lol: I've been following this thread for close to a month. Complaining that nothing was happening. When it does, I miss it. Fecking hell.
 
Unconvincing performer in the Euro final....a lot of pointing and directing of others without putting in a proper shift himself....won't be sorry if tfr doesn't happen....
 
I think people are missing something here. Pogba could have stayed and we could be four years down the line. However, could he have stopped the rot of Sir Alex retiring? What would have happened with him under Moyes and LVG? As it turns out - us getting him now is perfect. There's so much optimism for the present and future - that I think we're in a good position to get the best years of his career. He had four great years at Juventus. Just imagine though...before Jose came in we were more vulnerable and could easily have lost someone like Pogba. So I don't think we should be bitter about how it turned out. I would rather see Pogba in a team with confidence and direction, then one that's not and I think under Moyes and LVG he'd have been wasted.

We're in a good moment (if) we get him.

Where was Messi in that world cup final two years ago? He was pretty much nonexistent. What a shit player he is though? Wouldnt want us going anywhere near him.
 
We didnt wait for Pogba. We werent in for Pogba at that point. We had LVG in charge still didnt we? The papers say LVG said no to him. Sanches says he rejected us and went to Bayern.

didn't the player himself say he rejected United because LVG was coach

I know man, and ronaldo barely did anything this euro either, so glad we sold that deadwood.

Yeah thats what we are saying but the other side we are trying to save face and the club said LVG rejected him due to drop in performances towards the end of the season. Dont know who to believe when either party is blaming the other.
 
Mourinho employs Mendes. People forget that when they speculate about how powerful Mendes is.

You're right of course. However like all staff, a manager will want to surround himself with people whom he can trust. Having players who share his same agent is one way to do that. Mendes is currently to arrange a deal for another juggernaut in midfield ie Andre Gomes. He would have appreciated if we spend the dosh on him instead
 
Sorry, i dont know how reliable it is im just sharing information i found.

Whats the general feeling on MUTV? looking on twitter everyone whos watching it feels they know that Pogba has joined on the show.
I didn't get that impression from watching, but Ji Sung Park, Robson and the rest all praised Pogba.
 
This seems to be reaching fever pitch - surely it will be announced by the end of this week, if it's going to happen.

Obviously a lot of money, overpriced in many people's eyes, but transfer fees are going crazy and that's what we have to pay if we want one of the best midfielders in the world with the potential to become the best player in the world.

As an added benefit, his marketability is huge so we'll probably end up making the money back one way or the other.
 
not sure about box to box, but I don't think there is any young mid available with his kind of technique, power, and size. he's the perfect balance between strength and technical ability.
That's very true. I am just trying to think of who plays that B2B role better than him right now...maybe Vidal?

One small positive we can take from the fee is that we now effectively have inflated transfer prices to a level where we are one of the few that can compete.

Madrid's next galactico will cost them their stadium.
 
okay then I believe you. Now it's time to Mahrez and Fabinho and we are favourites to win the champions league... next year... but with Pogba we will be title contenders anyway..
We are already title contenders without him

we made Madrid poor. woody is a hero
 
You really refuse to believe him. Well, I just don't see why he would go this far in order to become an "ITK" at an anonymous internet forum. It makes more sense that he actually knows someone in a marketing department, but everyone to their own right?
The internet is full of bullshitters pretending to be ITK. No it doesn't make any sense but it's far far far far far more likely to explain the situation than him actually knowing anything.
