Maximum exposure would mean announcing it around 5-6pm in the UK so the papers here can print it on their back pages.The deal will be announced past midnight here to get maximum exposure in the Asian markets.
Shouldnt they focus on the South American markets?The deal will be announced past midnight here to get maximum exposure in the Asian markets.
One was tractor, other one was JLings taking over Instagram, la.It's not even been a week and I'm sick of this saga. I want my non-f5 life back!
Also, what were Uniteds ''2 big announcements'' that was mentioned earlier?
Lukaku and Pogba were both announced at 12AM.It's not even been a week and I'm sick of this saga. I want my non-f5 life back!

Walk 1000 miles of play for Arsenal, not even a choice really.Walked 500 miles and walked 500 more.
Alexis liked your PostRoaming with his dogs.
Definitely done to maximise exposure across the globe but it definitely isn't the best strategy for English football.Lukaku and Pogba were both announced at 12AM.
Problem with Arsenal is they always try to Walcott in.Walk 1000 miles of play for Arsenal, not even a choice really.
And this morning DiMarzio said it was "a matter of hours". But that could mean 2 hours or 300 hours.
The same was said last night and nothing came of it. Journos are just trying to guess it before hand for the attention and the "ITK tag" that comes with it in case it turns out to be correct.
Surely you can't be serious? He's Chilean, so they'll want to get into the South American market.
We have barely any presence in South America, we could give less of a toss about it. It’s also not the wealthiest of regions either, hence I’m confident we’ll be timing to be morning in the Asian markets.Maximum exposure would mean announcing it around 5-6pm in the UK so the papers here can print it on their back pages.
Social media has come to play an increasingly prominent role in the way that clubs like Manchester United communicate with the outside world, but the Pogba deal confirmed it is now the primary channel. Rather than opting for the traditional press conference and photo shoot, the club announced the transfer on its social media feeds at 12.35am – a decision that perplexed its UK fans but served the dual purpose of making the early morning news in the Far East and evening headlines in the USA.
I don’t get it. I can clearly remember United announcing Pogba while I was taking a bus in Spain in the middle of the dayLukaku and Pogba were both announced at 12AM.
Even the great one can be somewhat inaccurate sometimes.And this morning DiMarzio said it was "a matter of hours". But that could mean 2 hours or 300 hours.
Veterans of the Pogba transfer thread will remember how often he said that it was a matter of hours. Was one of the running jokes in that thread.
*Not to disparage the good name of DiMarzio. Obviously he has good info, but can't predict when someone will hem and haw, or when some other little hiccup will happen to delay things.

You've definitely said that the last 2 nights as well. Isn't it 10.30pm though?It's gonna kick off at 10pm![]()

We need another laundry lady leak.Surely with all his close family members here in England someone would leak a picture or some info on social media? Disappointing
Pretty sure Fellaini did his late in the day. Full day of training then bombed it to Carrington to do his medical. Wasn't official till 1am lol. fecking Moyes.He is doing medical at 1:00 AM?
I assumed this was a joke. WtfHazard begs for a United transfer, after Chelsea approach to Crouch.
No you're right. I was on a bus in Bulgaria. We announced we'd agreed terms in the evening but the official signing announcement and unveiling was during the nightIt’s weird. Must have been a BBC confirmation or something that I’m remembering
There was a tweet about it. Nothing concrete so far.I assumed this was a joke. Wtf
Carrington, or LA if you are Pogba or Lukaku.Where is our medicals usually taking place?
