Every club has had their full blah blah blah advertisement by Adidas released.

The only one left is our one, which I'm pretty sure is half of the Pogba one to be extended!
 
Have you all seen those adidas videos in their 'first never follows' marketing campaign? There's one for each of adidas' top clubs, with notable players from each team (Chelsea, Real, Bayern, Juve) featuring. There's no AC Milan video which suggests they might still be releasing them, but the only one they've got up for United is one featuring Pogba.

I know we saw it yesterday but it has a bit more context today as they've released the others. Maybe when he actually signs we'll get a full blown Pogba-United 'first never follows' video featuring the new kit.

AC Milan is on the official Adidas Football youtube channel:
 
Crikey you must be nearly as old as Johnnowhite :lol:

i know , the world was flat.......................................

the first united kit i ever saw had a club crest on the front and a number on the back and that number wasn't yours. bestie wasn't the number 7 all the time.
 
I've had this feeling since I first saw the Juventuz ad and cross quecked it with the Juventuz forum since I don't speak Italian:

In the beginning of the Juventuz ad the Italian commentator mentions Pogba!

This is what the guys from Juventus came up with (they actually analysed and discussed the ad over a few pages starting at 1810):

Pogba worth all of this money? Is he the most overrated player of all-time?

That's what it says.

Dunno what to make out of this - adidas marketing department did a great job here, everybody is talking about this campaign!!
 
It doesn't and you are not thick.

I was thinking as you...but then i thought...Adidas would have to get consent from Manchester United to use the logo in their commercial right?

Adidas would give specific info...


Why would Manchester let them use the image in a marketing blitz if Pogba wasn't coming?

It logically makes zero sense if he's not coming here, and yet people want to write it off and say it doesn't mean anything. Utter madness.

I can't see any reason for the club to object to the ad nor anything else about the blah blah blah campaign.

I think we will sign Pogba anyway. I think the ad is fun messing around with the uncertainty but does not outright imply the deal is over the line. There are details to iron out.
 
ESPN reporting that a 95 million pound fee is agreed, with 20 million pound more for the agent.

Interesting tidbit...today, 95 million pound is the equivalent to about $125 million US...we sold Ronaldo for 80 million pound in '09 and at the time that was the equivalent to about $130 million US. So really, this isn't too bad of a fee, given the way the transfer market has been out of control recently.


umm what? it's still a load of dosh. ronaldo was WC and was a WPOTY at the time he was sold. it's 115m quid no two ways about it. it's a world record fee.
 
The Manchester United crest in the actual advert, Stormzy walking outside of Old Trafford wearing a United tracksuit top?

I'm genuinely surprised you don't see that as a sign.

Oh my god. If that is a sign for that the deal is done, then how about the United crest on the billboard with the word "blah" and Pogba reading the newspaper which says BLAH BLAH and then says don't believe everything the media says. What does that mean then?

It doesn't have to mean anything.....

An advert is like throwing mud. You want it to stick. In and of itself, it don't have to mean a god damn thing.
 
This summer? I don't think so - I believe we might get another defender though!

Next summer is another thing all together ;) :drool:

Bonucci :devil:

I want more Juventuz tears. Please Woody, make the Old Lady open her legs one more time this summer.
 
I posted this before but I see it as the truth behind all the blah blah blah is man Utd, the Utd crest is being revealed as the truth, and as someone else said, why would we have him in an advert with our crest when he's not in the Juventus one.

Oh my god. If that is a sign for that the deal is done, then how about the United crest on the billboard with the word "blah" and Pogba reading the newspaper which says BLAH BLAH and then says don't believe everything the media says. What does that mean then?

Watch the Juve one too, the Chelsea one, the Milan one, the Madrid one... Everyteam has one with their players in it, this is our one. The full video will be released when it's officially confirmed by United.

It will all make sense shortly my friend. Trust chief muppeter!
 
Hold on, isn't Raiola saying that the Press have got it wrong in their eagerness to beat each other to an announcement?

The paperwork isn't signed, that's all. Why that tweet has provoked several pages of arguing about whether deal is done or not I don't know. It's all pretty obvious what's happening at this point.
 

Ok, that seems to be very very deep but totally plausible but you think adidas wanted the ad to be so deep? I am actually amazed how a lot of fans are able to find such deep meanings to fuel their hope.

Raiola doesn't always say what he means. On that basis, you cannot take what he says seriously.
 
What the feck is this obsession with Adidas? These past few pages have been all Adidas Adidas Adidas. feck Adidas.
 
Why can't the "Blah, Blah, Blah" represent "Pogba's first choice is REAL MADRID".

I mean ...that Juve squad is already pretty good. Maybe Pogba no longer sees the appeal of getting a job in Spain. Heck...weather..Italian women....

Ok, i think i am slowly able to understand how the muppet mind works. And now that @spwd pointed it out as well, it's starting to make sense :lol:

It takes some doing to pad this thread out to 825 pages!
Chatting all manner of nonsense does that.
 
The papers have been saying Pogba prefers Real to United. .

He doesn't. Never did. It's all bla bla bla. Not sure what people can't see with this. Or why anyone with a braincell would think both United and celebrity United fan Stormzy would agree and sanction a video with Pogba if it wasn't all but done. .

Come on guys.
 
Even with this many people trying to explain different points of view, people still think pessimistically of that adidas video.
