The fact he is still on holiday i can't see us unveiling him until he returns from his hols.
 
Of course it is. So is Rashford getting 20K a week.

ALL wages in football are ridiculous, that ship has long since sailed. But here's the thing, the money is there, its not disappearing, so I personally would rather the lads running around on the pitch that I enjoy watching have it rather than Joel Glazer.

So just enjoy the players and the football, ignore the money, its not yours or mine, let them get on with it.
Rashford I can understand on 20K
But 300k a week is like Messi/Ronaldo wages. Way too much imo.
 
It's the gaps that have opened up at the top of the post count that amuse me!

How much time have you got to make almost a thousand posts in a thread? By the 20th post surely you're just repeating discussions.
 
Of course, you have to take that into account as there were obviously big scraps and pieces of Di Marzio updates to come and the obsessive run in to the announcement still waiting to happen accompanied by the thread boosts that come with it. We'll get to 1k. Still the news running up to the medical, the medical itself, the banter and jokes around it, the when is he flying in crap, etc etc.

One things is for sure, I think this thread will hold the record for a very long time!
 
Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Ehsanul once king of the muppets?!!?

This is as drastic a change than Anakin-to-Darth. Clearly embraced the RAWK side.
He made a new career choice on the caf and plays a new role now. Happens when you are in a midlife crisis.
 
How do people not think Pogba isn't coming after that Adidas advert yesterday. It basically confirmed it.
 
I think the muppets have contributed to the delay, what with all the attention and free publicity Adidas and Pogba are getting throughout this saga.
 
The burst of Zlatan-debut-Sweden-tour marketing the club have released on social media makes me feel a lot calmer.

This whole transfer has been carefully orchestrated in the marketing front, and they're not going to have it clash.

Does make me think they won't say anything until well after the Gala match though.
 
Feels a bit like the best fry up you ever had made you when it gets made again it's not the same. At this point yesterday i was buttering my arse and now i'm miserable.
 
The meltdowns over a tiny bit of silence that was inevitable anyway after the storm of news in the last few days, is nothing short of embarrassing. This is done.

Mate, in my 26 years of life I've never heard someone talk so much about buttering their own arse - and I have some fecked up, freaky friends.

You have issues.
 
Watching the video of Ibra in training, I noticed Martial's back. Why is Pogba still on holidays while Martial is training? Did Tony cut his break short?

Martial and Schneiderlin had their standard 3 weeks after an international tournament. However, Juve gave both Patrice Evra and Pogba extra time off. I think Arsenal have done the same with a couple of their players. Thought if we sign Pogba, I think his extra time will be cut short by a couple of days.

Regarding the "delay" - the way I had read DiMarzio's update about 48 hours, it was more to with all parties coming to agreement. As for the official announcement, I was(and am) expecting it to take a bit longer for the official announcement as I expect the medical to first take time and then fully expect Pogba to be doing the signing / unveiling at Carrington and then on OT and for us to really get the most out of the announcement. Seeing as he is in LA still - didn't expect anything till Monday at the earliest official.
 
If tbe only hold up is an agents fee, and I know it's huge, then it will be sorted. I think they'll regret not paying Hazards agent. Thinking of the bigger picture, let's try and reach a compromise. I feel confident.
 
Not had a chance to follow this much in the last day or so. I get that we're still waiting for documents to be signed etc, but has any reliable source confirmed that he's in LA for a medical? Or is that just the next leg of his holiday?

I don't believe this medical stuff btw. I'd imagine that'd happen at Carrington in due course.

Also, I'd be surprised if Pogba keeps to his full holiday. From what I've heard, which might be bullshit, it's due to finish on Aug 6th/ 7th. That would be ok if he was still with Juve, who have their 1st Serie A match on August 20th. But we have our first proper fixture on 14th Aug, and another one on 19th Aug. So I'd expect him to cut short his hols a bit and get training so he can play a part in those games.

We've sorted out everything including the agent fees. Just need to sign a couple of things.
 
So is everyone expecting him to get the number 6 because it's free or is 8 more likely ?
 
Some people are still getting worried we won't get him. This is done that adidas video has confirmed it in itself,to top it all of every reliable journalist in Italy has said it's done barring a medical.
