This is slightly concerning for me, is Pogba really ready to play as a No.8 in a 4-2-3-1 formation with all the responsibility that comes with the role? Or are we going to shift to a 4-3-3 (which I gree with) but if we do what do we do with the likes of Rooney, Mata?James is a no.10. We have Mata and Mikitaryan for that role. Pogba is a no.8!

Sounds encouraging!
I agree. I honestly think we made a few bids but are now looking elsewhere and Real are ready to pounce.Maybe we are letting this one slip away
I would see the funny side if Madrid swooped in and snapped him up....and they could so easily if they really want him
Those that worry about Real are right to worry
Tancredi is Bein Sports rep, right?
He seems to think this is done, along with Richard Keys.
€145m being the total fee.
It certainly is. It's about 10% of the amount. Totally comparable.
He is just a bloke that used to work at Juve isn't he? Means nothing.Openly talking about the Pogba transfer and saying only Bonnuci is irreplaceable![]()

Sure but he's not related to Juventus. I wonder why he would talk about another club.Openly talking about the Pogba transfer and saying only Bonnuci is irreplaceable![]()
Yep I know hence why I included his name.Richard Keys is Bein Sports.
Because there are too many sources saying Real are going for him now. They want their new toy and will get him if they push hard enough.Why is everybody not optimistic now? It's never been more obvious that he's leaving and Madrid have been down playing him.
Hoping we tell Juve to feck off with their silly demands. Not a disaster if this doesn't go through, they are holding us to ransom the cocky bastards.

This. Can't believe we'll bend over like this ffs! State of us. Worrying that we'd agree to this. Pogba is surely not worth this hassle.Hoping we tell Juve to feck off with their silly demands. Not a disaster if this doesn't go through, they are holding us to ransom the cocky bastards.

Won't we look even more foolish bending down to their every demand? Worse still if he comes and doesn't make the impact that we want. We'd look even more idiotic after spending all that money. Don't like this at all.No way, this is our chance to establish ourselves as top dogs in the market. Will look like fools if it doesn't go through now.
Yes but the important sources (Marca and AS - Spanish based papers) are saying that Real aren't after him and can't afford him, they needed James to leave to be able to fund buying him.Because there are too many sources saying Real are going for him now.

I think it's 50/50 but you can never write them off.
What midfielder should we be chasing in your opinion?Won't we look even more foolish bending down to their every demand? Worse still if he comes and doesn't make the impact that we want. We'd look even more idiotic after spending all that money. Don't like this at all.

Thanks for the information mate I am calm again!Yes but the important sources (Marca and AS - Spanish based papers) are saying that Real aren't after him and can't afford him, they needed James to leave to be able to fund buying him.
They pulled out of the Gomes deal due to James saying he wants to stay.
There has been absolutely no solid source saying that Real are after him now. One tweet saying "Real have phoned for Pogba in the last hours" have led to EVERYBODY reporting that Real are back in for him. For all we know, Juve could have leaked that themselves to get United to speed up stuff. To be fair, as soon as that tweet came out, a Marca reporter tweeted that Real have made absolutely no contact, and no one in Spain reported it either

I thought €120 million was crazy enough but I made peace with that. Now I'm realizing we are gonna pay up to €145 million and I don't think I would ever come to terms with that fee. It's ridiculous.Won't we look even more foolish bending down to their every demand? Worse still if he comes and doesn't make the impact that we want.

There are no reliable sources saying Real Madrid want him. It's all in your head because you're trying to be negative.Because there are too many sources saying Real are going for him now. They want their new toy and will get him if they push hard enough.

That's not the point. I'm not a scout. I'm sure they're midfielders out there that can do the job, even if they might not be 'marketable'. Pogba is not Messi or Ronaldo who you're sure will have an impact. I just feel we're being humiliated by Juventus and we're just taking it up our bums for someone who's no Messi.What midfielder should we be chasing in your opinion?
Tank also reports for Bein sports.Richard Keys is Bein Sports.

I am actually a very positive person - there's no need for that kind of post.There are no reliable sources saying Real Madrid want him. It's all in your head because you're trying to be negative.
There are however many very credible sources saying we're at very advanced stages of negotiation. So how you come to 50/50 I have no idea.
