Di Marzio: Barca make bid for Pogba

So he hasn't made wage demands according to BBC or Sky Sports. The agenda to get Pogba and Mourinho out of United is one of the most vitriolic campaigns I've ever seen in the media. There are literally daily attempts to force one or both out. I don't know how many of you listen to talksport but literally 50% of their coverage is negative stuff about Jose/Pogba.

I'm not denying Raiola has been up to his usual tricks and probably has sounded out suitors but these stories are getting incredibly tiresome it makes you not want to listen or read anything until the season starts.
So you are not denying that raiola, and therefore pogba, is making noises about wanting to leave but it is nonetheless a vitriolic media campaign to force pogba out of united. Instigated by Di Marzio.

Sounds legit.
 
Bringing it up doesn't mean that I take offence, it just means that I'm bringing it up because that's what I want to do. You can choose to think someone is offended if you want to.

Would love to hear your views about how to stop awful Twitter accounts spreading fake football news.
I really don't give a crap about stopping fake football news. It's not a problem at all. Everyone knows you should take most football twitter rumors with a huge pile of salt.
 
True that Pogba came in from the side entrance today? Oh NOW he wants to be all low-key. Just come out like a man and tell the fans what you feel....:rolleyes:
 
It will actually. Plenty of people get banned (or temporarily suspended) on Twitter. I report people every week for all sorts of things, and the support team at Twitter often looks into them and takes action. Can take a while sometimes, but it happens.

If someone has their account suspended, like the idiot above, they'll think twice about future tweets.

Anyway, witty response. You must be so proud.

Ever considered trying a different hobby?
 
UEFAlona can feck themselves. Team of cnuts.

Pogba is a hard man in the mould of Zlatan, he won’t go to a team of pussys such as UEFAlona. I hate that fecking team of cnuts more than anything else.

Let's say Pogba is in the top 3 midfielders in the world right now. After the wc, his stock is rising.

Mourinho has not developed a great bond with our players yet. He didn't do himself a favor for publicly criticizing Pogba last season. Also criticized other players.

If Mourinho does not improve there may be a time when a decision will have to be made. Our flagship playet Pogba or aging, griping Mourinho. Let's just say that players would rather play for Pep or Klopp than for smirking Mourinho.
 
Another thing making this unlikely is the fact that Barcelona wear Nike. No way in hell Adidas would be happy with the 75m deal when their most marketable player is leaving for Nike..


Isn't the future Sun King the second also Adidas? Would think he's also bigger than Pogba. I mean in a couple years he'll be juggling the offers of France's calling BS on the revolution and their last 3 centuries of history and offer him the crown and absolute power of Louis XIV complete with 24/7 tv news shows about his bowel movements while on the other hand Florentino Perez will be making blood offerings to Azathoth and setting a conga lines of virgins, instagram models and pornstars from Madrid to Paris, in an effort to pry him out of France
 
Pogba isnt going anywhere and Jose can do one . Did I get the gist of the thread?
 
I don’t think we need confirmation from Pogba himself to know he wants to leave, his lack of social media is telling, has been NOTHING lately when usually he is all over it, no shot of him returning to training, no insta photos of him with teammates, I reckon there could be serious truth in the agreed terms with Barcelona. United obviously won’t sell but it’s now a case of when not if Pogba departs United.

Sucks because he came back after a solid stint with Juventus, with all the “I’m home” , “I’m back”, “pogback” etc and now he already could be off again.

I agree. But maybe, just maybe it's because he's taking the season seriously and been ordered less social media. Having said that, he upped an instagram video of him getting a new haircut just 15 hours ago..

If it is the case(and I think it is), it feels good that to be on the other side of being used for a contract negotiation.

such a hard post.
 

Ah, its just evil agents. Guess it's just the way of the world the way these guys keep trying to arrange transfers against the wishes of their clients who are very happy to stay. How awful, yet inescapable.

Pogba wishing to remain a United player is certainly more plausible than him wanting to leave for no apparent reason. He's playing for one of the worlds biggest football clubs and being paid a rather handsome salary for the privilege, which is set to increase the longer he remains at the club. Why on earth would he want to leave?

He'd probably win more trophies, earn more money and get to play better football with better players in a nicer city if he moved to Barcelona.

He didn't have to join 6th placed Utd over CL winners Madrid and Barca 2 years ago.
Shouldn't that tell you something?

It tells me more that he was willing to leave Juventus to come back to a 6th placed United in the first place. Who knows how material the interest was from Spain at the time.

Now he's tried it and things may have changed for him. Unless of course Raiola is one of the aforementioned evil agents roaming the market like a renegade.

You forget where Pogba grew up. He's quite attached to the club and considers it his home.

Anyway the reports from inside the club today should put all these silly rumours to bed.

There are very few football clubs worldwide that can afford to offer a player a higher basic salary than United. Barca are not among them.

He may or may not win more trophies at Barca. The style of football offered to Pogba is irrelevant (this only matters to the fans in my opinion).

I've never been to Barcelona, I'm sure it's lovely.

Now you're just guessing to prove a point.
Utd got him out of left field. Barca had a deal agreed from the year before and Zidane maintained their interest up until the day he signed for us.
So the answer to your point that he might want to play for a more successful club is that he left serial winners Juve to join a Mourinho team who finished 6th and didn't even have CL football to offer.
Those are facts.
