It's good news! That must certainly mean he hasn't signed for Juve - I just can't believe Ferguson would use a player who had agreed to sign for another club

Of course. We still don't know for sure if he was on the bus apart from that person on twitter but if he was it's a good sign for the reason you said.

Good to see his agent has barely talked on twitter since that Q&A a few weeks ago. Last tweet from him was a few hours ago saying there were no updates on the situation.

Theres a fake (well at least one) Pogba facebook page that says I'm off to Inter. And then one of the next updates is "Juve is my team". Clearly its not his page and it should be ignored.

Yeah, I think that's supposed to be what triggered the whole "Pogba signs for Juve" thing. Italian newspaper/website latched onto that then it started a chain effect.
 
Christ, some idiot makes a fake FB page and it's reproduced across 100 websites and newspapers before anyone even checks to see if it's real?!

I'm lost for words.
 
Note the rumours from ITALIAN news sources were influenced by the fake Pogba page, the report from here still might have some substance to them, only time will tell.

There's that too. Some of the websites/papers involved I thought would check their sources before publishing something like that but you never know. When it comes to transfer news/rumours there's something new every other day that turns out to be false. Like you say only time will tell but if he is on the bench tomorrow that would be a good sign.

With some players returning from injury I'm not sure if he will make it to the bench if he is in the squad though.

That's the account. Not even sure how people could assume that is real. Idiots. :lol::lol:

:lol: and at the end of January he said he was off to Inter:

Paul Pogba
Bad news guys, looks like I'm off to Inter Milan. Thank you for the experience

As for the Juventus status there's a lot of people who have commented on that in the last day or two welcoming him to Juve, though with all of the news sources saying he's off there I suppose it's not too surprising.

Love in the about section -
Perhaps United's greatest youth player in years

As if he would put that in bio about himself. :lol:
 
Guess it shows you the way things can get out of control once the media has a hold of them.
 
I'm still not counting my chickens, the mood whilplash should he now not sign might destroy my fragile mental state.
 
There has to be some truth in the Juve rumour otherwise Pogba, his agent and Fergie would have all come out together and flat out denied it. Pogba probably signed a deal with Juve that can only be activated if no other better bid comes in before a certain date!!
 
That seems like a lot of effort on Juve's part, for no justifiable reason, "Please use us as a bargaining chip Paul"

It's an extremely low buyout clause on a precontract, kinda seems like that deal (if it did exsist) is worth about as much as a no-smoking sign on the Hindenburg.

That David_Johnson7 guy reckons Pogba ain't in the squad for tomorrow. He knows all the players too so he's probably right.

The lad who spoke to Johnson also asked Stephen Ryder who said Pogba was on the team bus. I am not sure what is going on, but I reckon he won't be in the squad.
 
With Anderson and Cleverley back, I dont expect Pogba to be in the squad even if he is staying.
 
On the bench today.

Edit- @CLK How sad must people be to make up a fake account for a player, and act like it's really him? Pathetic.
 
He just got off the team bus live on MUTV. So he is in from the cold... Lets hope this means he is or has signed a contract with us.
 
Yes, that's a positive development.
 
He wouldn't be on the bench if he wasn't possibly part of our future

That's all I take from it
 
Him being on the bench is certainly good news.

Well, seems unlikely now that he's signed for Juventus say. But does not mean he's signing a new contract with United. Things may still be up in the air but Fergie wants to take chance on him.
 
on the bench meant nothing, if he doesn't sign the contract, he will still be off.
 
We might just be pissing Juventus and Raiola off right now.
 
Last week I rated him as a new Diaby. Nevermind, it's new Viera now.
 
I can't see Fergie putting Pogba on the bench until the new contract has been signed.

Well it means he's not signed for Juventus yet and there's a chance he could still sign for us. If there was no chance of him staying here, like someone else said earlier he wouldn't be in the squad again. Simple as that.

Might be a needs must sort of situation. But I agree, there's probably a twist coming.

I tend to agree, at least I hope so. Mind the rumours about Juve were precisely that, just rumours. Really hope its a good sign but I still can't get my head around it.
