if people want to use this thread for actual meaningful updates then they should just wait for thread title changes. I think most people realise these threads end up 98% bs
 
The make up of this thread so far:

20% - bullshit merchants pretending they know inside information
20% - idiots tagging the bullshitters asking for updates
20% - "this is boring" even though the people saying it keep reading every post
10% - comparing the post count to previous transfer threads
10% - "he's not coming" based on nothing
10% - "yes he is" based on nothing
5% - Drake and how he makes music for teenage girls
3% - mods asking people to stop being assholes
2% - actual information relevant to Pogba
This is so true :lol:
 
Let's focus on the topic. As and Marca are obviously positioning themselves and despite Madrid pulling out - I think that depends on who they can sell. So let's see if Madrid sell anyone this week. Even though Pogs on holiday, let's see If Madrid sell some big names. I think that will tell us more. Would they sell James though, just to buy another midfielder when they've a settled midfield? Would seem a bit redundant but then again, it's them lot...

The same lot that doctored a photo of supporters when we played them on tour in America...:) They're very insecure.
 
Time to pull the plug, or at the very least give a deadline of Friday.

With 100m (arguably 35m above the players value) you dont get to dilly dally.

Take the offer, or we move on. Simple.
 
I love the impatience :lol:

If it hasn't been completed by some arbitrary deadline it's just never going to happen.

Also add in people asking "have we even bid yet?" As if such news would not be absolutely everywhere, as it will very possibly be a world record bid.
 
If it's Madrid he wants but they won't splash the cash that Juventus wants he could do a Beckham who refused to go to Barcelona (who are the equivalent of us in this strained comparison in my head) when he was with us even though they offered more than Madrid. He wanted Madrid and no-one else. I don't see why he would sign with us if he's looking for Madrid in the near future.

Do you know the meaning of IF? Why are you saying IF when you don't think it's IF? Your problem is you don't think it's IF. You've made that clear lol. So just relax. It's a fiction. At this very second, he might prefer Madrid...but maybe that's only because they're in the CL. You'll never know and whatever makes it easier. Come back in a weeks time and hopefully it will be clearer.
 
That's a huge assumption that Juve is somehow more keen to sell to one of their main CL rivals, as opposed to us.

I think the threat is not from Real, but from Juve playing hardball over a player they have on contract for another 3 years. However, IMO, the the silence from the actual decision makers is deafening, and i see that as an encouraging sign.

With 100+mil on the table, the decision is out of Allegri or Zidane's hands.
 
AS are also saying the deal with United may already be done, and that Pogba is in no rush to sign.

These are the most silly posts to me, you haven't a clue what's going on, you don't know if we're dilly dallying. The deal could be signed sealed and delivered by Friday.

You'd think every massive money move took no time at all to take place the way people talk on here, but it's always the opposite. They always drag.
 
If Real are ready to pay our money then he will be go there. That's as clear as Spurs not winning the league in the next 5 years. Its time for our negotiators to be quicker and more effective. United had always been weak on that regard so its not a Woody/Glazer thing.

Like Thiago to Buyern did......
 
That wasn't a massive money move?

So you guys are telling me that 20m pounds or 100m means the paperwork is different.

It isn't.

Real wanted PP we all know he would be there within 48 hours. This has Di Maria written all over it.

Just my 2p of course, no disrespect to other opinions.

Ref Bale.......Levy.

all the posters acting like such a move should take 2 weeks are clearly having a WUM

it's like everyone has erased Bale to Madrid out their thick heads. that move took forever. And you know what also took forever and dilly dally till the fax broke.... de Gea to Madrid

Wasn't that due to Moyes?....we can choose to believe what we want. What people forget is that it's not always as simple as it appears. In the Vidal, Thiago situations there were issues - If Sir Alex were still in charge, we'd certainly have reacted better but what you forget is the more we pay for Pogba (IF we buy him), the more it depreciates if people know you are rich. Clubs start asking for 5-10 million more....Someone for 20M isn't going to change the attitudes of most clubs. This is a different situation. Especially if Juve wanted to spend the money this summer....

The bolded part is by far and away the most bizarre aspect of it all.
 
So you guys are telling me that 20m pounds or 100m means the paperwork is different.

The paperwork and negotiation is different when one player has a clause based on the amount of game he played and a player who doesn't have any clause.
 
This thread is completely off the rails. I normally read it once every other day, and it's almost always gone up by 10 pages, yet no significant update. People need to cool off from posting irrelevant crap.

We need to get this figure up. 10% is very disappointing.

What you don't understand is the clubs are negotiating, not Pogba. We already have a deal agreed with him, the clubs are weighting up the value. That's the "hold up" not that he doesn't want to come. Big difference.
 
Whoever has read this whole thread deserves a "king of the muppets" tag. I only have a look now and then. Usually 20 new pages and i just look at the threadmarks.
 
It really irritates me when people have a pop at Woodward. He's tried each season to deliver a big signing so hardly his fault when they don't come off for whatever reason.

How anyone knows who is dilly dallying or whatever else is beyond me. If we end up getting Pogba on deadline day so what.
 
When did the Drake discussions start? I missed it.
 
Have we really resorted to comparing a David Moyes transfer negotiation with a Mendes Mourinho team :lol:

There's a solid 1-2% as well that can't wait to say "He's off to Madrid. Madrid will swoop in etc etc"
 
The key thing missing from those percentages is the amount of people comparing this transfer to the di Maria situation! That's the most annoying thing for me in the full thread.
