Who cares about Sanchez?
All this speculation about Real Madrid has come from paranoid RedCafe posters. There aren't actually any reports that state Real Madrid were seriously after Pogba. The most credible source of any interest was Ballague who unequivocally said Real Madrid aren't interested in Pogba for the price Juvents are asking. That's it, nothing more. Since then it's been people on this forum keeping the Pogba to Real Madrid rumours alive. If everyone would shut up about them there'd be nothing to discuss because there's no decent journalists actually linking him to Real.
I don't see how people can call it an embarrassment or that we'd lose respect in the marketplace if we don't sign him. How is it embarrassing to refuse to pay 145 million for a player? Quite the opposite, in fact. Not that I'll really care if we do pay that much. We've wasted FAR more than that paying down the debt over the last 11 years with feck all to show for it.
Don't normally trust him but that sounds legit to me.
Can everyone just ignore @The Purist attempts to wind you up and derail the thread.
Here he is a few months back putting Pogba in his world 11:
Now that United are heavily linked he's got sand in his vagina and is trying to make himself feel better that United are likely to sign a player he rates in the 11 best players on the world.
Nothing to see here.

Apart from the Real Madrid manager saying they were interested in signing Pogba, less than 24 hours ago, you mean?
Ha! Brilliant
Ah but he watches Pogba regularly remember..
You'd be excused for thinking that it's Raiola that we're trying to sign- not Pogba.
I mean, he's the one who seems to be doing all the talking and pissing us around, not the player.
I've got a real bad feeling about this. Not that we wont sign Pogba, but that if we do sign him, in a couple of years time when he has 12 months left on his contract, this tw*t Raiola will start dicking us around just as he has dicked around Juventus, Real, Abu Dhabi Athletic and ourselves this summer.
If Pogba wants to come - fine....Let's hear him say that. And when he does, I'll welcome him.
Othrwise, let's forget the shadow boxing, the blackmail, and the shit from his pimp and let's just move on.

cracking find.He did?
From my memory, Madrid said they wanted our best player.
And LVG and Woodward agreed.
Madrid were the ones who messed up, or should I say, their FAX machine.
Woodward could not have bent over further, for Madrid, than he did last Summer. The only thing he could've done is apply lube to Madrid's member, before assuming the position.
Even Fergie could not prevent Madrid from taking our best player back in 2009 (Ronaldo). He resisted them for 1 year, though.
And this is the reason so many fans are fearful of Madrid.
Madrid say, "we want your best player"
And we say, "okay boss".
Pilib doesn't really put his neck on the block unless he's sure, and to be fair he originally said Madrid were Pogba's favoured option not us, but if they didn't come in for him then he'd come to us, now he's saying he thinks there's are chance they are sniffing about hence the hold up, not exactly ground breaking stuff, but probably about on the money.
Still find it hard to see how Madrid will suddenly pay £100 m for a player that isn't really a game changer/scorer, who's fee would annoy likely Ronaldo, and who they don't really need, but maybe they'll just do it to get one over on us.

He also carried Arsenal to............ Oh wait.
Not true at all. De Gea's contract situation left us in a weakened position.
Don't think I'm pushing the realms of possibility by saying I don't think that's what happened at all.
This has been done for days now, it's obvious the journos want to put the spin to the biggest football related story off season. They want to get as much juice out of this as they can.
How the feck are you pessimists still falling for these tweets? Some have said they even don't want him because they can't take it anymore, get a fecking grip.

Brilliant. Purist let me get you some cold water for that burn!Forget the starting XI, he isnt even in the squad.Love it!
And Pogba's revenge for the Fergie treatment
Surely us buying him for a world record fee would be that.
The purist has dissapeared it seems lol.
The Purist is always talking nonsense - nothing new. Still funny, though.
If this does fall apart we go back to the old "wonky midfield" strategy that has served us so well in recent years.
We already lost Sanches, Gomes signed for Barca. Who is the 4th choice? Matuidi? a 29 year old PSG don't mind losing? Inspiring stuff.
We need to close this Pogba deal, no excuses.

Ouch.
You want me to screenshot the (lack of) edit log?
An admin must have edited that. Conspiracy stuff.
The post was made 13 months ago...not a few months.
Not that it really changes anything.
It's a joke.
I maintain that he's not worth 120million. But it was fun to wind the muppets up in their hour of worry.
He didn't even put the player who would start for any side not name Barca on the bench.
At the end of the day it's the player that decides. Can you blame Ronaldo for his desire to play for Madrid? No. If he was determined to stay here they wouldn't have got him regardless of whether the club agrees to sell or not.
I think that fans get the shits when Madrid is mentioned because it's quite reasonable that Pogba may decide to play for the CL champions.
