They told Firenze he couldn't do it, but the boyhood dream has come true for Firenze at GLMania.

finally settled.

Best of luck to Pogba, 4 great years at Juve, 4 league titles, 2 coppa italia, a cl final and now 100+ mill for the club. Unreal impact he made at Juve.

Hope he can find his space to play his best, if he continues his trajectory like he was at Juve he will become the best midfielder in the world no doubt.

This is an incredibly terrible move for his career.

He's going from playing alongside Pjanic, Marchisio and Khedira to Carrick, Fellaini and Schneiderlin. Not to mention being fielded in a double pivot.

This is nothing more than a money motivated move.

I'd be surprised if he becomes as good as Yaya Toure in his prime with stupid career choices like this.

Don't be using my thread titles against me bruv, I don't take kindly to that

Also, Marchisio is back mid October according to Allegri so I'm more calm in my stance regarding our midfield.. just need to avoid a panicked signing like last year's Hernononones fiasco

On the flip side he's gone from playing with Higuain's fat twin brother Eric Higuain and Dybala's twin brother Doug Basham.

Jman taking the piss on twitter Laughing

Just retweeted: 'If you actually think in 2016 that Manchester United are better than Juventus, change sport. Football isn't for you.'

Which begs the question: IS United a bigger club than Juve? hmm

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Sun Aug 07, 2016 2:23 pm

Yes lol.

by Vlad the Impaler on Sun Aug 07, 2016 2:23 pm

Arsenal have better team chemistry than Man United and have two of the world's greatest players in Alexis Sanchez and Ozil.

RG, you should be fine. Equal chances for Arsenal to win the league like the other teams, calma.

We're comfortably the better team and play in the CL. There is no doubt in that.

But money talks.

Because they can buy whoever they want regardless of CL. Most likely they will win the PL and get back in the CL while we will wait till 31st august and put in a 10m bid to get mario gomez and finish 4th

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Sun Aug 07, 2016 2:25 pm

They don't tbh and the previous seasons explain why. They'll finish top 4 as always though.

Historically we're better. But United is the bigger brand and generates more popularity.

What makes you think Pogba will make an immediate impact ?

Do you realize he will be playing in a double pivot and will have a completely different role and system he had at Juventus ?

by halamadrid2 on Sun Aug 07, 2016 2:28 pm

Money played a big factor but I am certain Pogba doesn't make this switch if he was playing for eg Barca. You can't deny that Juve tend to have trouble holding on to their best players historically

by Nishankly on Sun Aug 07, 2016 2:28 pm

Mourinho needs to be sacked if they finish below 2nd imo, You can't spend this much and call it building a team. This is the English Galaticos.

Says who? they have more CLs, league titles are irrelevant because no competition. Same reason why Madrid has like 40 La Ligas lol.

Also their fanbase has been much bigger for a long, long time. ( before they were the brand they are today) It's only a debate to Juve fans lol.

The only clubs who have an argument to be bigger are Barca, Madrid and maybe Bayern.

by sportsczy on Sun Aug 07, 2016 2:30 pm

Because at NT, he played the double pivot on the wrong side no less with Matuidi as his partner (no ability to hold the ball and no technique). He did fine... just wasn't as impactful on the game in this role because... well how could he be. He was glued to the defense. Did extremely well against Germany in that role.

At Man U, he will play on the left... and I'm sure he will have freedom to attack some as Rooney can cover for him on occasion. I would also not be surprised at all if the other pivot isn't basically playing DM to allow Pobga free range.

That's why.

by RED on Sun Aug 07, 2016 2:30 pm

Wonderful news. Welcome back!

Also the Juventuz forum have been hilariously hateful towards Utd during this saga.

Regardless of that, I can't hate on Juventus. Great club.

I'm pleased this has come to a conclusion.

I don't mind them finishing below City, Arsenal or Chelsea tbh. They simply have to get top 4 though. Anything else is a disgusting underachievement.
