Do you want Pogba for £100 million?

You seemed a bit concerned in this post (which started this conversation) that the payment terms might scupper the deal.

Not really, I was just speculating on what the last details could be. Maybe you are worried though? :D
 
He will be flying out the speed the deal along. He is the one holding it up. Juve will want it done now as they will want to use the money to get Higuain. That's what I'm saying.
 
I don't understand why but Madrid seems to be the 'Mecca' for football players. They took Ronaldo off us, were minutes away from taking De Gea from us, they have done it to other clubs. Whoever Madrid want they get, that almsot a meme at this point.
You can't be surprised that some people are worried about them, and pretending to be above all that doesn't make you look intelligent or something, it makes you look nieve imo.

Its quite easy: They are the world's most successful ever team.

- Historically, they are more successful and won more silver than we have
- They have had some of the worlds best players since the 1950s
- They pay amazing wages.
- They play in front of 80,000 amazing and very loud fans in an amazing stadium
- Madrid enjoys amazing weather
- Madrid possesses enriching culture
- Madrid has many beautiful women

Nothing for us to be ashamed of, only 1 team can have that status, and our club can't do anything about many of those reasons.
 
Mate, what ever happens, happens. feck Real Madrid, don't give 2 shits about them, we're man utd and you lot'll do well to remember that.

Hmmm, normally true except when we've come across Real Madrid, playing football and the transfer market in the past few years.

Maybe that'll change into the future under Woodwards commercial stewardship and Mourinho's footingblling nous, but the jury is still out for a long time on that.

It's also the biggest club for Spanish and Portuguese speakers. That obviously incorporates South America and Iberia - where there are endless brilliant footballers and footballing nations. In Scandinavia and Asia United are seen as the biggest club but obviously the quality of footballers isn't as good.
 
Aye, their fans are especially amazing when they start waving the handkerchiefs and booing their own players.
 
You would think we would almost be as popular with players though, i mean we 'supposedly' have more fans worldwide than them and most football players are also football fans so.
I suppose Manchester isn't exactly Madrid but i doubt many foreign footballers know what Manchester is like anyway.

Its annoying because when we had SAF and CQ, we'd almost overcome that problem and stated importing many young Latino's ... and Im sure Rafael and Nani would have continued to deliver under SAF.

Hoping if Mourinho can last for more than 2 seasons, he can use his aura as a magnet for such players into the future.
 
It is fecking natural people freak out and panic at the first sign of trouble, given how unlikley this transfer was at the beginning and how heavily invested people are right now because of all the links and Madrid losing out Gomes and suddently Raiola has flying off to Pogba, for anyone with half a brain that is an indication of possible trouble.

Oh for feck sake.

People should panic because Barcelona got Gomes and Raiola supposedly flew to Miami? Give me a fecking break. Such a doom and gloom way of thinking. There is absolutely nothing that is concrete that Madrid ever went for Gomes and for all anyone knows Raiola was always flying to Miami to meet Pogba, he is his agent.

Hope Raoul thread bans you lot that are having a "Fear Madrid" Circle Jerk right now because you are putting 2 + 2 together and making 5.

google search?! :p

We are very popular, probably the 3rd most desired location in world football even now we've lost our edge.

We just need to start winning again, as with our new commercial strength we can fund the big transfers we could not before.
 
Just watched Jose interview this is done. Marca and AS for the last two days have been slating pogba about how he's not worth what where paying and they also stated that Madrid pulled out of the gomes deal because James Rodriguez reiterated his desire to stay not because they want pogba now. This is done we have beaten Madrid to a world class player it seems to be hard for some of us to understand this.
 
Nobody here (including me) knows feck all about the specifics of how transfer dealings take place. Especially speculating if they can be done over email, FaceTime, or telegram.

For all we know Raiola went to Miami to have a wank with Pogba. Be patient
 
ours aren't great. They just go quiet, which in my opinion, is just as bad!
I dassagree highly there. People can say whatever they want about our fans but they hardly ever boo. Even over the last 3 shite seasons, booing compared to almost every other clubs fans, is almost none existent.
Booing is MUCH worse than just just going quiet.

I didn't say the'y boo'd, but in last seasons, the crowd goes eerily silent when we are rubbish. You can even hear individual voices on TV sometimes.

Spoilt or otherwise, our fans demand entertainment and winning, and when they don't get it, they sulk abit by chomping down prawn sandwiches.

Personally. Id prefer if they boo'd as it would be a message to the players to get their act in order!

Bale also went to Madrid and not to United and he is from Wales...

Doesn't want to come back to EPL either

You can say we are regarded as the bigger club in many parts of the world, but there is nothing to back that up. usually those places don't produce good footballers so it is obvious Real and Barca aren't interested. In the exceptional case that a great non south american/Iberian player does pop up it usually results in just the same outcome, they play for Barca or Real, not United.

Where does Modric play, Where does Kroos play, where does Rakitic play, where did Odegaard decided to go ? Does United even have 1 player that Real or Barca would be interested in right now ? Bar DDG who was almost a Madrid player but for a broken fax machine, I'd argue there aren't any

And Im sure that had any of those players indicated that they would join us, we'd have paid them more wages than what they earn now.

Well it comes down to the fact Madrid have had huge power in the transfer market since 2009. In 2007 United were a much more appealing club, but even then latin players wanted them over us. Players like Bale have gone their now because they are a much better team than us now.
 
Its like that video of DiMaria when he was a kid saying that he wanted to play for us one day. He couldn't wait to get out when he came lol.
 
Dave was already on the plane if the fax machine didn't break

If that's so why didn't big bad Madrid come and get Dave this summer??

Oh wait ya let's just ignore that we have already beaten Madrid this summer by Dave staying when it was so bang on that he was gone to Madrid this summer.
 


I messed up #Gomes but I don't run huh ready to all the criticism and get always the face

The sign of a true journo. He admits he got Gomes wrong, that doesn't mean anything in terms of Pogba.

Sometimes i wonder if some posters on here just read through all these pages and when something slightly pessimistic come up feel like they have a green light to start posting "he's off to madrid isn't he" posts.

Without Mourinho coming in, and some new found optimism, DeGea would of been gone this season imo.
 
Why do people assume Madrid are back in the race, you'll know if they re enter because they always make a massive song and dance about it, it's all over the media....we are the great RM and we want him

Probably the same reason why they dithered so much in the first place, they didn't really want him that much. You have to an unbelievably naive to think we have beaten Madrid in the transfermarket because Dave decided to stay. Again Madrid were total wankers in the way they tried to get Dave last summer, but he was packing his bags nonethless because he wanted to go there. If he stayed it is because Real didn't want him anymore.
 
Whether this deal falls through or not I couldn't really care. We have other options, Jose has expressed that. We have to trust the manager here that he will achieve success with the team with or without Pogba. It's not gonna destroy his bloody plans.

Guys we have a front three of Martial-Zlatan-Mkhi and Mourinho is gonna work his magic to get us back that title that we have been wanting to get back after so many years of being off the radar.

If Pogba wants to go to Madrid feck him, if he wants to stay at Juventus feck him, he's not our player at the moment so why should we care?

I have confidence that this will be done soon enough. But if it isn't please don't moan and cry because you didn't get your new toy, there is other options, and Jose has already said that.

When was the last time they swooped in on a transfer at the eleventh hour without their own media sources knowing about it?
