To be fair it is very itk. You don't know if he could because you are not on the inside and don't know Woodward's skillset for concluding deals. I think the knowledge that Woodward can conclude deals is very itk even if he sometimes cannot conclude the deal due to facing an equally, if not more, talented concluder of deals.
We might all be able to say what he says but that would be baseless opinion from us, he is itk only because he knows and therefore it is not just opinion.

I have absolutely no idea what you're trying to say here but I'll disagree with you. It's impossible for the guy to be wrong because he said something "could" happen, that's the point.
 
I don't understand the people who are like "it's done lads, don't worry, it'll be done in a few days"

I wish I was that confident.

Saying he ''could'' doesn't suggest he knows.

Personally I've just seen the deal as blindingly obvious for weeks. I'd like to think we'll finally have closure on it this week though, just for the many many nervous muppets in here.

I agree. To be fair, judging from his stupid Instagram photos and videos, Pogba seems like maybe even a bigger head case than Chad Johnson. And certainly seems worse than Memphis, who is constantly criticised for being too "flashy". But then again, as long as it doesn't affect Pogba's actual play on the field, who cares?

Yeah. The great thing about CJ is that while he is an attention whore, he worked damn hard as a player and didn't just rely on his talent, and he also pushed the players around him to work harder. Hopefully Pogba takes a leaf out of that book.
 
Looking at the new picture of Ed and Mou added with the pics from the official presentation of Mourinho as the new manager I think it's pretty evident that Ed just got a massive crush on Mourinho.
 


Mino Raiola will meet with Paul Pogba in Miami today
Paul Pogba will meet with his agent Mino Raiola in Miami today to discuss the player’s future, according to France Football.

Mino Raiola actually arrived in Miami on Saturday but has spent time with his other half for the weekend, and has yet to see his French international client.

Paul Pogba has been spending time with Antoine Griezmann on the exclusive Hibiscus Island, a neighbourhood where American football stars like Chad Johnson and NBA players including Clint Capela.

Pogba and Raiola will meet today. Why has the player’s deal not been completed to Manchester United yet?

In the last few days, according to multiple Spanish reports and confirmed to GFFN, Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has been in touch with Pogba about a move to Los Blancos…

Careful of their own salt added on at the end of the article. Also they fail to mention that the France Football article specifically says Raiola is meeting Pogba to finalise the Manchester United deal. FF say nothing about Real at all.

Weren't there photos of Raiola and Pogba together in Miami the other day, supposedly showing Raiola yelling at Pogba for getting photographed smoking an e-cigarette?

It is very relevant. First of all because it hits Paul Scholes as a supporter. The club he loves has lost a player with great potential because he wasn't given space in our team. Paul Scholes may wonder if Pogba would have still left if he remained in retirement + he would be furious with the boy for not fighting for his first team place (these are people who think that Manchester United is the centre of the universe and that anything beyond not succeeding there is a failure).

It also hits him as a SAF's loyal disciple. Believe it or not, PS is SAF's most loyal disciple. Unlike Giggs and Gaz Paul Scholes didn't had any agents. When Moratti enquired about the guy, he ended up speaking with SAF who told him to stick his offer in an inappropriate place. Paul Pogba is the living embodiment of SAF's rare but biggest feckup. We're actually buying our talent back for 100m because the manager (Paul Scholes idol) preferred to stick to his golden oldies (which also include PS) than to this kid. For us, its not really that bad to admit that SAF messed up. He's the single most important person in this club's history but he's still human after all. However these people owe everything to the man, he made them the stars they are now and lead them to multiple victories. Basically they owe him everything and they can't stomach that he might have messed up big time.

Finally it challenges the very concept of the United way. The class of 92 have this romantic view of that period and think that United were lead by some knight in shining armour who would rather lose trophies then not giving youths a chance. Its unthinkable for them that SAF would rather lose a top quality but inexperienced talent and rely on his old guard just to end his career on high. This mentality is ironically highlighted by the Keano-SAF spat which is brilliantly described in one of SAF's books. At one point, Keane looked at SAF and told him that he had changed and he wasn't the man Keano idolised anymore. SAF admitted that he had to change else he wouldn't keep on winning. That is something I believe that the class of 92 have yet to fully comprehend. The SAF who gave them their shot wasn't the same SAF's of Pogba's time.

A very interesting take, and a good post, but I think it's far more simplistic and out of context.

I think what Scholes was thinking was that Pogba isn't worth that much money, with more emphasis on the money rather than the quality of the player. He said Messi was worth that kind of money. And, put simply, he's both right and wrong.

He's Right, in the sense that the money being thrown around in modern football this transfer season is, basically, insanity.

He's Wrong, in the sense that, in the current climate, we could get that level player for what we're allegedly getting Pogba for. With Higuan going for close to 100, Deeney being valued over 35 and apparently United got rebuffed for Ighalo for 30 last January, what is someone like Bale, Suarez or Neymar really worth in this market? Pogba's price is set by the market.

Regardless, Sometimes it's easy to get a bit annoyed with Scholes' media persona. Didn't he say only a couple of weeks ago that United needed to buy Pogba? Now that's apparently getting sorted he's complaining about it?

And @Pexbo has it all figured out. Remember Theo Griezmann's tweet? Seems Pogba's been hanging out with Antoinne...It's a done deal folks

Was a subsequently deleted message from Antoine genuine? If so, where was it again? Twatter or Insta?
 
Remember when Jorge Mendes was going to run our transfer window this summer?
