And Juventus don't get either 100% of fee for players like Zaza or Pereyra this summer.They can fund the first 50% of the payment which is due this season by selling fringe players like Zaza and Pereyra. They don't need to sell Pogba.
One can only hope it will click like that one, the talent is certainly there.Up there with Cole-Pires-Henry for me
I don't think any one of those will start, they don't inspire though I'll give you thatGlance over to the Fellaini-Young-Lingard right and that boner will be gone in no time.
If I see that word Madrid one more time I will throw up.
And its a shame cause its a beautiful city.

Yeah that's the most important thing.
Seriously, why do people keep going on about how long the thread is? What does it matter?

I saw some tweets the Pogba medical will be this coming Wednesday, Woodward on his way to London to prepare receiving Pogba.
If this is true, the megastore online is going to crash from all the Pogba and Ibra shirt sales that are going to happen next week! I will get one of each too.
I can't wait and expect all the hype with our new superstars transfers over as great, fast, attacking football on the pitch. I am still concerned about Rooney though, as any team with an out of form Rooney will end up struggling in the premier league. But at least we have a great coach in Mourinho, who will hopefully hold him accountable.
He's not a Fedex package ffs![]()
Woodward is an Amazon Prime member.

Maybe he means receive more in the way that when Pogba shows up, Woody will be there for him in a see through pink nighty, with some champagne, chocolate strawberries and rose petals scattered around..... That'd take some preparing.He's not a Fedex package ffs![]()

No, 3 months shy when he left.Probably been asked before, but will Pogba count as an academy product?
If yes, and if TFM and Pereira can continue their development, you can potentially have a midfield three composed of academy players. Jose's Children![]()
I thought he does? It is 3 years, or 3 seasons. He gave us 3 seasons.No, 3 months shy when he left.
A home-grown player will be defined as one who, irrespective of his nationality or age, has been registered with any club affiliated to the Football Association or the Football Association of Wales for a period, continuous or not, of three entire seasons or 36 months prior to his 21st birthday
Good idea. You go first.I think it's only fitting that we all take a 'Dab' selfie when we all hear the announcement to capture the moment perfectly and upload the pics on here![]()

The muppetry has got to my head.

A €100m package. Probably FedEx.He's not a Fedex package ffs![]()
Upload it to Juventuz tbh
You know Pogba is inside because you hear the bubble wrap being popped.A €100m package. Probably FedEx.
It's a shame. Still, we've never been stuck for homegrown talent.Just checked @Earthquake and you are right, he was only with us two full seasons.
The Juve forum seem to be in denial about the facy that the Italian league is a joke.
Upload it to Juventuz tbh
think I'd probably be the shortest lived member on the forum.
There are some in juventuz who actually think that Pogba is staying and we are the deluded ones.... Guess they are in for a shock next week.
I was having a look on Juve forum to get a glimpse of their viewpoint on the saga.
Some of them have accepted he is leaving others are still in denial even after the Higuain deal, thinking they can just afford a €94m signing like it happens for them every year. Tough it seems none of them can understand why he would want to join United. They all think he is mad in the head and need to have talk with the board to see what quality surrounds him and that he would be leaving that for a west ham united level team.
I don't think they understand Pogba doesn't give a rat's ass about their alledged super quality team that hasn't won a CL in over 20 years and isn't going to in the coming years because every year they sell out their star players (Tevez, Vidal, soon Pogba, near future Dyabala no doubt) and is soon reaching the average age of senior football club. If he leaves Juve for United it is because:
1: He can triple his wages by coming here and Juve can't afford to do the same.
2: He may feel the serie A is a dead league with no competition and no sense of challenge in it anymore and the EPL is the complete opposite, with much more viewers, bigger clubs, bigger stadiums, more star players, more quality managers and much more money for all parties involved. EPL is just a much better podium for a footballer to perform his trade at than the Serie A these days, used to be different but Italian football is currently on live support and the battery is nearly death.
3: He may actually believe in the project United has to offer which is to get back to the top of the world as a football club. Afterall it has only been 3 years ago that United was actually a much more successful and higher esteemed club than Juve are right now, Pogba knows this first hand because he was actually part of it at that time and only left for Juve because he wasn't getting any playing time at it at the time. The difference with the last 3 years, easy the manager, we have had some very poor ones and before that we had a really fecking good one. We have a really fecking good one now aswell, and we have more money to spend than most of the competition (including Juve), so if things can change for the worst in 3 years, why couldn't it change for the best aswell ? Pogba, Ibra, Mkhitaryan, Bailly, Martial, DDG, Rashford, we have just started to build our team up again, only started, we can afford these kind of summers every year, we don't need to sell to buy, we can just build and build and keep on building we may not trump Juve right now but we will eventually and once we do we will move on from there aswell.
I've also seen a guy that actually thinks Juve are richer than United because the Agnelli family owning them owns more money than the Glazers. I don't think he understands being rich in football has 1 to do with how much financial resources you have at your disposal and 2 to do with how much leeway you have in spending that money because there are actual regulations like FFP that limit this to how much revenue the club actually makes. I don't think he understands the Agnelli's aren't actually pumping their own money into the club nor are the Glazers for that matter but both families are actually running the clubs like self sufficient businesses, the way it is supposed to be done unlike the sugar daddy clubs like City, Chelsea or PSG. That means how rich the club is depends on how much money it can generate on its own and for United that is much more than for Juve, because we play in a league with much more tv money, we have much better sponsorship deals and we have a much larger global fanbase to exploit and it isn't likley to change either. The only clubs that are really as rich as United are Real Madrid and Barcelona and to an extend Bayern. City, Chelsea and PSG would match it aswell if FFP wouldn't exist. Juventus actual spending power is likley smaller than that of for example Liverpool.
