Build Up: Pogba to United

Trust me, no Man u fan who is following the club closely over the last 3 or 4 years will react that way. We aint new to heartbreaks and screw ups. Probably the plastics on Redcafe will contemplate on committing suicide but not others.

Who plays on the right with him?  Herrera or Schneiderlin?

There are rumors in France that Matuidi is headed to Man U as well.  In that case, Matuidi would play on the left and Pogba on the right.

Fosu Mensah!

Honestly if Mourinho goes and buy a 29 year old Blaise Matuidi now to partner an incoming Pogba I will loose my shit. We have Timothy Fosu Mensah waiting in the wings to take over that position not to mention other decent players we have like Schneiderlin and Carrick. TFM btw is the next big name going to come out of Man United after Rashford if things go according to plan. The kid is seriously talented and is tailor made for that no.6 role behind a roaming no.8 like Pogba. So ffs no Matuidi now.

this transfer is taking too long, man u are ready to give juve all the money they want, all the wages pogba wants, what's the hold up now? someone fill me in

Man Yoo are waiting for Juve to sign Sissoko obviously.

We want the full 120M apparently. Dont want to give 20% of it Raiola. Which means man U have to pay up to 145M euros for the deal to go through.

Apparently ManU have been watching reruns of the Euros and are now looking at signing Sissoko over Pogba and saving about $100 million...

As if we would let Pogba go easily. I love this

Forcing the maximum fee, thankfully Juventus didn't insert some sort of release clause into Pogba's contract, or else we wouldn't see this saga.

If Sissoko joins Juventus, I'll be so sad. I'd rather Momo Sissoko

I'd carry him to Manchester Airport myself for that kind of fee. And trust me, its highly unlikely we'll get higher than this even if we keep him for another year.

They're desperate right now. Just milk them as much as we possibly can.

And Sissoko aint happening. Dont worry.

Good. All the midfield names Juventus have been linked with are absolutely terrifying, except for Matic who I believe would be an amazing addition but I'm unsure of his availability.

I wouldn't trust Surag tbh, he said the same about Pogba.

Thanks in advance...

You can thank Everton.

Nah that's not really the case. I, and many, remained firm that the only way Pogba was to leave this summer is if he requested to leave and as all Italian media have been reporting, that's exactly the case.

Just happy to try and demand the largest cost, especially when 1/5th goes to Raiola.

What's wrong with making the best of a situation? Pogba is a great player but everyone knows he doesn't demand this type of fee, this type of fee is reserved for players like Cristiano Ronaldo. It's just amusing to watch it play out bruv.

Its not that Juve are a feeder club, they are a big one but they lack the money muscle to day no. If they say no we wont sell then they need to increase pogba's wages significantly which they cant.

I think it's more a case of it being a slippery slope. Lets say Juventus decides to pay Paul 10M a year, then Dybala wants the same, Bonucci etc. Eventually, you're eating into so much of your budget just to pay players each season, that you can't sustain it or make new signings (I think of Milan back in the Ibra days when they had the highest wage bill in Serie A ). It's not a standard that could be maintained, and Juventus' wage structure is absolutely great right now.

Were also talking about a world record fee and a player that wants to leave... I don't think it gets less complicated than that on Juventus' end.

150M for a player who was in your youth team not so long ago....

Joke's on you.

Can't believe United are paying over £200,000,000 for a B2B mid who thinks he's Ronaldinho but has a higher turnover rate than Fellaini


Imagine paying £325,000,000 for this loser

unreal signing, happy Pogba believes in this GOAT project, definitely has the potential to be a top 1 team in the world in a year or two

also according to respected journalist Tancredi Palmeri, City offered 90m for Pogba and Chelsea 120m but he chose us

We offered £25m as well.

What is the official word coming out of GL accountancy head office?

Does this fall in to the GL supertax bracket? Are United really going to drop approx £750,000,000 on one player?

After GL tax it will probably add up to 900m imo.

Getting outshined by a bench player like Morata in big games

Black Nasri indeed.

Now here we are, 1 billion dollars richer at the end of it all and still asking Parolo to pay 15% of his own transfer and accept a modest wage decrease
