If he signs a 5 year contract, then I reckon we've possibly 3 years before the briefing about his desire to try out La Liga starts in earnest. If we decide to ignore that and make him see out the 4th year, then we'll have to let him go at that point, or lose him for free the following Summer. No way is this player, and this agent in the business of giving anyone 10 years service!

Lets not kid ourselves - if he comes here at all, it'll be because he's not been able to persuade the club(s) he really wants to play for to stump up either the transfer fee or the wages required at this point.

That's probably true. But as long as we keep him over a years contract at all times, with the inflation in transfer fees likely to continue, we can sell in 3/4 years for a profit. In other words, we'd be getting a top player for several years and still selling on a profit. That's probably the biggest advantage of buying the best young players and it is what Madrid have been doing for a fair few years now.

This.

Couldn't care less, let people bloody moan, we've been the richest club in the world for two decades and it's about time we started making statements.
 
What are you weirdos at in here? Bloody hell.

Hopefully we get this wrapped up one way or another as soon as possible so it doesn't drag out and prevent us from moving on to more available targets if he's not coming.
 
we have to wrap this up as quick as possible as even Jose' seems to be wanting to go for other players after this!

Whilst spending £100 million of a player who used to be on our books doesn't sit that well with me, I'd rather £100 million get pocketed by Juve than by the Glazers.
 
Mino Raiola on Pogba: “Maybe he will not leave. He's in no rush to leave, & Juve do not want him to go. They want him to renew his contract."

"Several big clubs are interested in Paul Pogba. Juventus are a club that want to keep their star players.”

:devil::devil::devil:
 


Definitely staying if Raiola is coming out with stuff like this. Time to move on.

That can't be Valencia's true instagram account... I refuse to believe he would use that wannabe gangsta photo as his profile picture on the internets.
 
What's this about juve offering a new contract?
 
Raiola: "Maybe he will not leave. Juve do not want him to go and they want him to renew his contract"
 
Feel sorry for the 'cocks frivolously out' members on here. They are left hanging with no finish.

Raiola hath spoketh-en/or something. Juventuz.com has won...
 
Please note that Raiola does sometimes split BS. Remember his comment about Zlatan might not go to United and that there were other offers and that his next club would be a surprise.

Manchester United make a f**k tonne of money every year. Pogba will sell so many shirts it will be ridiculous - he is the marketing department's wet dream. Do you really think that the owners and Woodward don't know what they're doing? They are money men, they know what we can afford and what we can't.

Indeed. And lets not forget, that Woodward who is actually fantastic at making money for the club, is itching to get a Galactico. He has probably done the calculations and realises that the marketing on Pogba will make us even more money.
When signing sponsors we will ask them to pay more money simply because we have a big name manager and are signing Galactico class players, which in turn will encourage people to watch our games on the TV, which in turn will increase the audience for the brand of our sponsors.
 
Queue 10 pages of drama. Nothing to be unduly worried about IMO. Posturing like this from agents can be taken with a pinch of salt. I'm sure Raiola will want to keep Juve on his side for deals further on down the line. Still expect us to sign him since we are offering a world record fee after a mediocre tournament from Pogba. That was down to Deschamps to be fair.
 
It's over. RIP sweet prince. We're embarassing, we've been made to look like mugs, we are a joke of a football club etc. etc.

Seriously though, recent comments indicate it's probably off.
 
Change topic title please. We need an influx of true desperation in this thread...

THIS THIS THIS. Honestly does my friggin head in, "Owwwww but hes so expensive", No sh!t the best players cost the most and guess what 5.1Bn has just been pumped into the league, some people need to get seriously real. This window is a new stepping stone in the Premier League. Palace are about to sign Benteke for 32m, Have any of you been to Selhurst park (Its a dive) its amazing how these kinds of clubs are improving and I love it. The best players should play in the PL and we are top of that tree in terms of revenue. The days of 16m for Kagawa are well and truly dead.



All of your points are fantasy I never once went on social media or the office and said "guess what, we just signed Schwienstieger for 9m!" If I did I would be met with "erm ok, is he any good now?" Now when I go into the office and say "Did you see Martial at the weekend" NO-ONE says "yeah but he will end up costing 80m, gotta balance the books...." its utter non-sense. Pogba would have an Insane impact on the club that alone is worth 100m.

In terms of the best available, not sureif you have had a look around, the next best is Gomes (who is available) so why not go for the best? Pogba is our player, he is one of us. He is a supreme athlete and a wonderful attacking midfielder who will be world class in 2 years time, he will have a similar impact to Lampard. Would you rather have that for his premium or James McCarthy who is a Box-To-Box who scores rarely but has no special qualities for around 30m?

Our budget is the biggest in the world, people forget we are currently operating at a higher turnover than Madrid, we are the richest club in the world, you dont get to boast about that if you don't spend any of it like a tight fisted old retired business man, there is a famous saying "you have to spend money to make money".

The FM/FIFA generation consider United as irrelevant, when you play those games online etc its PSG/ManCity/Madrid/Juve and Barca they play as since they have a collection of the best players. Who wants to play as Schwienstieger/Morgan and Herrera when you can play as Veratti/ Pogba/ Kroos?.


Lets all take a step back, perhaps JUST PERHAPS. Our new manager Jose Mourinho wants to win the league, wants to give a big F U to City, Madrid, Chelsea the money players in the world and actually build a team that can dominate games and have a sprinkle of flair. Tell me, someone, please, for the love of all that is good why the hell we wouldnt want to sign Pogba and build an elite midfield? even for 100m of our poisonous owners precious pension funds? Isnt it about time we stopped pissing about and actually took the initiative and destroyed the other clubs financially, commercially and most importantly on the field.

Sorry Rant over. P.S I don't mean this to come across as a personal attack, its just this has been winding me right up.

There is no pride in not leveraging our past success and revenue to beat the opposition.

i don't know if you had a read but I don't give a feck about the price we are paying. I think he's worth it and was only trying to explain why other ppl have a moan about prices in general.
 
Im out. Can a mod threadban me from this thread?
I'm not waiting to read this agent / contract / transfer bullshit that goes on. I'm tired of it

I remember that, do you have the exact quote?
 
Paul Hirst's tweet isn't a reason to get alarmed. It's the usual postering that big clubs do when they're about to lose their prize asset.

Juventus want to ensure that they show their fans they are doing everything possible to keep their best players. There's not a chance they'll be able to offer Pogba a new contract worth anything near what we'll offer.

Don't panic yet!
