Someone really needs to call out Ballague over his childish strop if the reported fees and lack of Raiola payment turns out to be true.
That was the entire basis of his "Pogba wants Madrid but they won't pay the astonomical fee and ridiculous agent demands."
His foot stomping needs to be addressed more imo.
 
I love the little nuggets of info that Ed has been planning this transfer for a long time :drool: Love it or hate it, building relationships with the big agents is so important - and Ed is in bed with both Mendes and Raiola. Watch this space

Thats key really. Sir Alex for all the good things he did for the club took some really bad ones when he was angry. Destroying our relationship with 1 of the big 2 agents in football was not one of his better decisions. We have Woodward to thank for fixing that. :)

Who is Griezmann's agent?

Eric Olhats. Buyout clause, player and his brother quite fond of Manchester United so if we have Champions league football and are playing well, we wouldn't need Raiola's powers to make this happen.

There will be competition, but pushing hard for Griezmann next summer is a no brainer, really.
 
Next summer Id love to see us complete our CL challenging team (if we get there) by going in big for a double swoop on Griezzman and Saul. Almost impossible but oh boy.
 
Any new clips? That behind the scenes was just north of 1 minute or is there a longer one? Any pics from the training?

Griezmann would be the dream, Saul would be too, but I don't think we have a cats in hell's chance of getting him. Besides, the more pressing need would be a long term Carrick replacement. Weigl would be my choice, though I'm not sure how receptive he would be to coming after Bastigate... Also, I wouldn't mind if Pereira came in if he impressed on loan this season. Think he has what it takes to stake a real claim to be in the squad full time. Though, if Jose can prise Saul away then that's another matter... God, I've turned into such a Muppet :D

Have you ever watched him play?

Ofcourse I have. I dont expect him to be as dominant in such a competitive league alongside the midfielders we have. But its definately a marked improvement on what we have or have had and I expect us to be much better than last season as a result.

It's not as if the quality of midfielder in the Premier League is that much better than in Italy, if at all. He might not be consistently dominant as such, but I think he'll be a great presence, will control a number of games, and will be incredibly difficult for opposition midfield's to handle. Kind of in a similar vein to what Yaya Toure has been for City when on form.

Pogba is better than Ozil in almost every way. Pogba also isn't a sulking git who goes invisible when he can't be arsed playing anymore.

That's true. I just think Ozil is the sort of player every top team could do with. Thinking about it though he's like a lazy De Bruyne most of the time.

Don't get me wrong by the way, disgruntled caf members. Given the choice right now, I'd take Pogba over Ozil.
 
He's only 23 and he's one of the best CM's in the world. Can't wait to see him come on 2nd half against Bournemouth.

EDIT: Looking at that poll, didn't know the caf had over 1000 active members. Impressive.
 
Watch this it literally gave me goosebumps. So excited for next season :D.

 
I think the whole saga speaks volumes about him as a man. When he left us I think to those around him it was obvious the potential he had, however there was no scathing attack launched by him toward Fergie or the club even though he was treated unfairly, nor did he turn around and start spouting how we would regret it etc. Many players leave clubs and then chat a load, whereas Pogba had the respect and understanding that anything can happen in football.

The way he has thanked Juve as well is admirable.
