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.
So he’s accepted an offer for half the money each week and accused us of offering him nothing at 300k a week, what a parasite. That means he didn’t want to stay and only money would have swayed him, I’m glad we didn’t get him to extend, not worth the money or the circus that follows him. Constantly injured and out of form.
Happy to stop talking or posting about him. Bye Pog-bust.
That's just fixed pay, there are bonus payments on top of this.
Also it's euros, so it's bit less.
Juventus finish 3rd in their CL group.
We qualify from our EL group.
Get drawn against Juventus. James Garner completely overshadows him in a 8-2 aggregate win for us and does an Ashley Young special on him at Old Trafford.

Absolutely inevitable. UEFA know how to pick the fixtures to make the most money.
He’s got the same offer as we offered him, ours was pre tax
This will continue like the Lukaku thread
The club did the best thing tbh, not giving in to his demands was the way to go. Even if he turns into the best CM in the world, the decision not to renew him would still be the best one
Must admit I can't bring myself to dislike Pogba. A man of immense talent but such a waster. I like him though, he was an inspiration when he brought the dab to my attention... Something I enjoyed doing for an hour a few years ago.
In fact I'm doing the dab right now in honour of his time here.

he soon regretted it though...
Rightly so.
It was never Jose vs Pogba, it's a battle created by media and Jose fans. It was Jose vs entire dressing room or entire club except very few.
Thanks for clarifying, for a moment I was worried you might be racist
All this bollocks about showing United what they're missing. Even if he plays brilliantly at Juventus it will have no bearing on how he would have continued to play at United.
I was really excited when he returned to United and thought that he'd be great for us, but how wrong can you be.
Apart from a couple of good performances he's been really poor and it's been his lack of effort and commitment that's pissed me off more than anything.
Glad he's leaving and couldn't give a shiny shite how he performs at his next club.

Bless, so he’s going to pull the Yaya Toure card and say he didn’t feel wanted enough. How about actually playing well for more than 3 games a season? Then someone might be arsed about the thought of him leaving. It’s on him to earn that next contract, not the club. The club were right to deliberate, he’s been cack for ages.
I’ll be honest, you sound a lot more worked up than most in here but fair enough
Well, you guys have fun. He’s dead to me. Was dead to me since last year.
Usual moron in here embarrassing himself trying to defend Pogba
Pogba is just not suited to a long gruelling PL season. He is a cup player the way some teams are cup teams. When the weather got bad he was off to Dubai for his annual mid winter break for 2months.
I hope ETH wanted him gone. I'd be worried over his judgement if he wanted Pogba to stay.

Still ‘nothing’ to him apparently
He is getting more with adds on and signings fees on top of his wages
Any proof?
Can we lock this thread and allow fans the opportunity to try to forget that we ever wasted over £100m on this lazy layabout.

He gets paid the same at Juve as with United. But that's just a simple thinking, trying to rile up people.
He (and his agent) must get a much bigger signings fee as a free transfer also.

He did us a favor.
Immensely talented, but his performances here were not worth the drama in the end.

Wasn't to long ago he was praising us and saying what a privilege it was to play for utd, shows you all you need to know about him, I hope he flops at Juve but he will probably turn out to be world-class
Sounds as if he only has nice things to say about us. Always classy Poba is.
Very true. I'm glad this obvious PR wankfest of his seems to be backfiring.
Having said that, they're probably lapping it up over in Italy, even if he is a glorified Aaron Ramsey replacement.
To show how unremarkable this documentary is, this is the part they've leaked to drive traffic and promote it's release. They've basically tried to piggyback off the United fanbase one last time to draw attention to what is likely to be a complete borefest.
Pogba has nothing to sell. A footballer who plays very little football and isn't even that great at it has no need for a documentary. Nothing in his personal is particularly interesting either.
He seems desperate to expand his brand in the states and outside Europe. He's been completely irrelevant since the Euros and before that the World Cup. His star is declining as is his paycheck and this documentary was one last desperate attempt to keep his name relevant.

Can we please lock all pogba threads. Just seeing his name is depressing. The sooner we forget him the better
I concur, sick of seeing his name pop up on here
Whoever offered him £15.6 million annually must have rocks in their head unless at least 60% of it was performance based. I still don't believe City were ever after him - his attitude is literally the opposite of what Pep wants.
This is as good a read on his mindset as any I’ve read. His brand is more important to him as his legacy as a player. Which is sad and somewhat reflective of a lot of pro athletes these days.
Was never good enough for the Premier League. Lazy ass midfielder. And despicable attitude. Virus. Happy he is eradicated.
When you don’t play much football due to injury, and when you do you’re fairly average, the only thing left to sell to clubs is the idea that you’re a commercial juggernaut and will make them money just by signing you.
This is the only thing he’s got left to cling to, and hopefully the United fans he’s targeting with this documentary don’t even bother watching it
I was so happy when we signed him. I even bought a Jersey with his name on it. Embarrassing
Hes done absolutely nothing to demand 300k+ wages pw. Regularly injured for big chunks of the season, almost always invites drama when hes on intl duty and even when he did play he wasnt dropping 8-10/10 performances. So talented but comes with so much drama and baggage that I'd much rather prefer fred over him. Glad we got rid

I am just glad he is gone. The sad thing about his comments is that they don't surprise me . Pogba is a legend in his own head and will go down in history as a player that should of done more.
The whole rubbish that pogba was mr professional and a good lad and that it was all his greedy agents fault for creating such negative and unsettling stories around the club.
Seems like all this documentary will do is unveil pogba as a self entitled snake.
I hope united fans have the sense not to watch this self indulgent rubbish, without being associated with united the documentary would definitely get half of it's audience
