As soon as the reports of Madrid's interest dried up you could tell this was as good as done. When it goes quiet that's when things are happening behind the scenes, I imagine this has been done a couple of weeks now but we agreed to let him have his holiday.

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.
Ah yes, not even denying it now. It's gone from he'll be at training Monday to "No Comment".
Everyone knows it's happening now, it's like the Mourinho appointment, it's another worst kept secret in football
We all fall short of this guy and that guy with the signed Pogba shirt.
Pastor of muppets.
Just to repeat, tomorrow is my birthday. If this is announced then, consider it my gift to all of the Muppets at RedCafe.
@RDCR07 @VanGaalEra @SirAF and @ChaddyP - I'm looking at you 4 here.

Berbatov comes to mind.
So he'll miss the season opener most definitely, any idea when he'll be ready to start?
Just want us to hit the ground running, and kicking out a midfielder for him if we have a good start might be counterproductive.
Still, great news.

Happy advanced birthday wishes.
Aye aye!
You'd have thought they would all be towing the Allergri line still. No?
Today is my birthday can this also be Pogday ?
Di Maria springs to mind too, i remember that one, even though i didn't participate much, if at all.
I'm wondering if Mourinho will announce this one tonight, or atleast that he's due/had a medical. If, as the reports are suggesting, he's free to have a medical, then Pogba has been relieved of his duties at Juventus, and therefor Mourinho could technically talk about him
Was getting worried a weak ago that this wont reach 1000 pages but its so close now that unless United make a surprise announcement its bound to happen. Almost as exciting as the actual transfer
More!
£100m fee, I feel I have sweated a decent part of that trying to keep up with the saga created.
A win today and Pogba tomorrow, going to a wedding Tuesday. Could be a great few days!!
"He has no club, until he has one officially"
I'd laugh if he got a number other than 6.
Can hardly believe it's actually getting done. Felt as if it was going to go on forever. Very happy he's coming, but can't say the transfer saga has been a pleasure.
I actually like the fact that we are correcting our own mistake by buying him back for crazy money. It has felt terrible watching him perform at Juventus thinking about what could have been. Imagine if he had gone to City how extremely frustrating it would have been to see him shine for them.. Instead he's coming home!

Not if it's your own.
There's been a couple of call outs already but I'd really like to hear @Pablo76's lastest thoughts on this.
Yeah it tend to get annoying repeatedly reading about Madrid otherworldly pull they supposedly have over everyone else.
Some people are just mixing myths and facts.
Here's to hoping this gets announced before the 1000th page and mods close the thread on page 999 just for bantz'
Think there's a remote possibility he's announced today soon after the game? Or is it going to be one of the next days?
It would make sense to announce it today, if United/Pogba/Adidas are interested in as much attention as possible when it's announced.

This is what's holding me off! The only other number I could see him getting is 15 when Januzaj departs.
Most of the numbers "doing the rounds" have this at anywhere between £85mil - £92mil. I don't think it will break the magic £100mil mark.
I'm sure Jose will be asked about this after the game
MEGA thread, Paul pogba transfer Classic muppetry, but this time, this time, it looks like a different ending, we are going to smash the world record,and sign the worlds most talented midfielder!! Woohhh
The best part of this thread today:
People watching a flight that didn't have pogba on it fly close to turin, some people start to panic about "pogba landing in turin is bad news" only to fly over and people realising they were only tracking a random flight. Then mods remove all the pages because of the muppet fail, only to then wait a few more hours before Di Marzio announces it's all done.
This thread is now one of the all time greats!
My favourite post was one that said the plane is losing altitude so it's either landing in Rome or crashing in Rome.
Not so sure. Would not be surprised if we signed another defender if one was available.Checking RedCafe for transfer updates will be such an anticlimax once he's actually signed
Excited by this, hopefully he'll have a season to remember. Maybe even better than the GOAT Emre Can and shut them deluded scousers up with the comparisons.
It's not, that's why it's great!
I think there is a good chance of it being sometime soon after the game. I mean they've built up so much haven't they that now would be the most appropriate time to do so.
Muppets are now convinced that he will sign on Monday - is this another one of those, "48 hours to go" predictions?
Has any reliable source clearly stated that he is signing on Monday?
This is the latest reliable info regarding the move:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37001958
It states that we are on the verge of signing, but there are no time tables.
Jose himself stated that he wants the deal to be completed by end of next week (14/08/2016).
Where is the "Monday" prediction coming from?

Haha. Forgot about him, probably still in denial.
So who is the real winner here! United, Juventus, Pogba, Raiola or Adidas? That's the beauty of this deal. Everyone gets what they want. Except Real Madrid ofcourse
I'd laugh if this dragged on so long we signed another centre back in the meantime, who then took number 6.
I wonder what @ehsanul thinks about all of this.
