That's literally the only one you need to see
What nobody realises is that the goal was actually blind luck and he was attempting to play a through ball. He wasn't.
 
Not sure why Juve fans are that fussed.

They are receiving a monstrous record breaking fee for a good player. We are certainly over paying here by about €40m in today's market.

Juventus still have the 3rd or 4th best starting 11 and probably the best squad in Europe. They've recruited excellently.

I honestly don't think I'd be too fussed with losing Pogba, especially for that fee.

Maybe a lot of them are looking at it as a straight swap of Pogba and Higuain, which I guess would be an outlook which would be pretty shitty.
 
There were speculations of Perez preferring white players because they fit better in his commercial strategy. For example, Real wasn't even considering Ronaldinho (although it was probably due to his weird smile and not the color of his skin) because of his looks.

If you want the example of black Madrid players - Makelele, Essien, Adebayor, Diarra, Drenthe, Seedorf, from the top of my head - but they never had black player as the face/future poster boy of the club iirc.

edit: Casillas' agent accused Perez of not liking black players:

Lets not forget Didi.
 
Juve fans calling him a disgrace to the "Legendary #10 shirt" also stating he's only coming here so he can "Dab in front of a bigger audience and increase his Instagram followers" :lol:
 
I was thinking about something about this but didn't want to create a new thread as it may seem controversial (not meant to be) ...... Has there ever been a black footballer that is considered to "dictate the game" / a "playmaker" like Modric / Pirlo / etc are said to? You don't often hear of black players being talked about in this way, even Pogba who is about to become the most expensive player ever. Is this because they are coached more based on their physical attributes, maybe stemming from stereotypes? Or do people just not see this quality in them due to the stereotyping? Or are there just not many?
Good subject, make a thread about it.
 
"Indeed, I dont care what anyone says, right now this is clear downgrade, no amount of sugarcoating will change that. We were supposed to add Pjanic to improve a midfield that lacked his type, not replace Pogba who Pjanic is nowhere close to."

At least some of them are being real about this deal and not saying he's shit or he will flop just because he's leaving them.
 
I'm glad I finally have something to show for all the time I've wasted reading this thread.
Before wasting my time here this window, i would have been getting all my info from SSN and bbc gossip page. For a lot of the time in this window i was thinking maybe my ignorance was bliss with the highs and lows of news then negativity. Hopefully when this is announced it will make it all the sweeter.

Didi is considered one of the best playmakers of all times, for example

The sooner this is over, the better for everybody and we can all just get back to following and watching football. Once Pogba signs, it's all football business. He and the team must deliver. No fecking around. No excuses. Win/legitimately challenge for the League and give yourself an honest run in the FA and League Cup.

All the memes, the IG posts, etc. will finally take a back seat.
 
If he does come, rooney will br sooo left out in the marketing aspect.

We have

shaw (english, class, prospect, good look)
Bfs (class for older generation)
Martial
Zlatan
Pogba
De gea

No one would want a rooney on their shirt no more
 
on the juventuz forum they are discussing how Tottenham are a superior team to us if we get Pogba we have the best team in the league.
 
Dunno about Micky but with Zlatan and Pogba we finally have some who can take a mean longshot. Herrera and Rooney might as well. No more keeping possession just for the sake of it!
 
I'd be so happy to play with Schneiderlin, Herrera and Pogba in midfield with Mkhitatryan and Martial flanking Zlatan BUT....... We know Rooney is gona play...........



For now...

I still think we need a "box to box" CM in addition to Pogba who is better deployed further forward (Matuidi?)

They weren't far superior to us last season - even with as poor as we were and badly managed. All I can say is it's going to be a very good season in the PL - we should be competing for the title but, then so will several other teams - and possibly Spurs.
