In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Because he's really going to say Manchester when he's still a Juve player with no deal signed.
That's old news. And also: What do you expect him to say? "i want to go MU!" ? He doesn't want to burn bridges in case the deal falls through.
btw: seems like Raiola has taken a 5 million cut so the deal can go on? quite generous of him, i wouldn't have budged considering if RM come in next year and offer 80 million he still gets 16 million.
What a horrid post. I was happy with Evra's desire, a player who never wanted to leave. There were mercenaries back in the 90s too you know. Ask any Inter Milan fan where signing those types of characters got them. If that's the direction you want our club to take I'm afraid I'm not with you.
You haven't got a clue what Pogba's desire is. You're assuming you know how he feels and then basing your entire opinion of him on that assumption. There's no evidence to support your opinion either. But then you're a person who has already admitted you don't like him because of his hair style, and that you'd prefer Matuidi instead of him. So really when it comes to Pogba your opinion shouldn't count for anything.
Ronaldo 7 years ago
Might possibly give you Benzema and Kroos but they were always going to RM anyway.
Others not really
Picked these quotes up.
"He said 'your time will come' but it never did. It didn't come. But it does not mean I will speak ill of Manchester United. I love the club."
In an earlier interview, Pogba had said the final straw at United had come when Ferguson picked full-back Rafael ahead of him in midfield.
Pogba said: "It was a very, very difficult moment for me because I was in love with Manchester and I was a Mancunian."
My last post in the mains for today.
Good luck to everyone. Don't lose your minds

It worked with De Gea didn't it? None is bigger than the club. So much so we'll sabotage your move to Madrid. Pogba is 'willing' is he? I want more than some one willing to grace us with his presence. I want genuine desire to play here.
FFS Pog, just sign for Real already. I can't wait for the meltdown.
It clearly isn't. You are conflating speculation and indirect evidence. These are very different things. There are excellent reasons for Pogba to want to go the most glamorous club out there that happens to be CL champions and are being managed by a French legend of the game. It would be only specualtion if the likes of Chelsea were rumoured to be involved.
Five minutes inbetween these two posts. Obviously looking for a reaction and not got one so had to attention seek again. Thread ban requested so this guy can not enjoy this thread either way.

Avoided the thread since saturday as it got a bit silly. Cam back today, saw someone call it pogba day, then a bunch of posts about pogba going to Real. Time to leave again!
You've less of a clue what his desire is!
Not attention, just Grinching. There needs to be a balance to muppetry.
Once again, you have no idea what his 'desire' is. Not to add, I could argue De Gea's desire wasn't to stay in Manchester as it was reported he was still holding out for Madrid even after a very good season. So basically a player already at the club who wants to leave is more acceptable than one who isn't contracted to the club who is happy to join?
You're living in the past if you're expecting Evra's and Keane's. We are a business, we have been shite for 3 years and if were to only recruit players dying to play for us that wouldn't be changing anytime soon.
You sign players who win you football games, I couldn't give a flying feck if he hated the club, which he doesn't.
Where would you say Pogba ranks right now (not potential) in terms of the world's best central midfielders? i.e. who is better than him right now? who is around the same level?
Ugh.
He played for 4 clubs in 2 years?!
Crazy stuff!
Please elaborate in what way that makes me sound foolish.
You, along with a silly amount of others, are creating your own realities of what you think is happening with Real despite a massive amount of journalists (credible ones to boot) saying we're very close to sealing the deal.
Not sure why there's so much arguing here. Anyway, the quotes from Zidane are quite clear. Madrid are still interested and expect that they might get Pogba, so dismissing the idea is silly.
It seems that Madrid have been unable to coerce the player into kicking up a fuss to get the fee reduced, and are probably still trying to get this done. I expect that if it looks like we're close to signing him they'll be forced to pay up though. I expect him to join them, partly because they will be desperate to sign someone now and partly because it's part of an ongoing theme: we spend ages chasing a big name player, reports go crazy, things appear in the media which seem to be positive signs, more waiting, Madrid/Bayern etc finally swoop and sign the player in short order. Next muppet target identified immediately....

Yawn
Vidal, Iniesta, Modric, Fabregas, Kroos, Kante, De Bruyne (who can play CM along with other positions) and Veratti off the top of my head would be ahead of Pogba.
as expected, the tweets from @ChaddyP are just getting completely ignored by the usual suspects. 
We need to create some type of new unified transfer language that all managers, agents and players must use from now on. Just to stop people coming up with all these twisted translations meaning multiple things
If it doesnt happen that will be bad enough but if we try and identify another target we will probably get wrecked on the fee. We are now the club willing to pay over £100m for a player and everybody knows it.
Matuidi would be an example, PSG would probably let him go for £25m but the minute we come calling I feel that fee would jump to atleast £35m

What a conflicted experience it must be for you as a supporter...
A goal is scored, but while you are happy you wish someone who passionately proclaims his love for United scored it.
Take a global "dream club" survey among players. The results will be tilted heavily in the favour of a maximum of 10 clubs.
Not everyone can play for these, so they make do.
This all ASSUMING that Pogba won't be passionate about United. Your assumption is based on media reports. Which are 99% BS anyway.
If Pogba signs you will love him, then one day he will leave and you will be heartbroken. Don't be afraid. It's the natural order of things.
No. Madrid haven't been fleeced every transfer since Ronaldo. Honestly, people are trying so hard to find negatives.

Unbelievable! Its hard to believe the negativity in here.
Like hell I will. Have you been reading my opinion on him.
The modern day fan never fails to disappoint me. It's all a business isn't it?
I think you're being generous with Fabregas, Kante and De Bruyne (as a CM), but the rest I'd go along with.
What noises?
The only thing that has me a little worried is the Adidas advert and that's most likely some sort of marketing campaign.
I was mainly talking about Zidane's own comments rather than any newspaper report. The quotes are not of a man who has completely given up on a signing but one who has a decent chance. This worries me as it is clear Pogba would choose Madrid before us.
That won't happen though. Clubs have always known how rich we are but the only reason we'd willingly pay that money is because we know his resale potential. This would be the exception rather then the rule.
Loving the work.
Wow, really?
