100m EUR is a lot better!
No idea tbh, but I just get the feeling that Juventus will really dig their heels in on this one and within hours of us making our first official bid we'll see tweets saying it's been rejected. I hope I'm wrong and the bid is merely a formality after we've already negotiated and agreed an acceptable price.Surely with United issuing a bid its been made clear that Pogba would join United if accepted?
I can see Juve rejecting the first bid.
Yea reckon we will lowball them to start with and then see where it ends up. Hopefully juve don't get too greedy or it could price United out of the deal.No idea tbh, but I just get the feeling that Juventus will really dig their heels in on this one and within hours of us making our first official bid we'll see tweets saying it's been rejected.

surely the fact that this is happening now means it's a formality?! bid accepted Wednesday /Thursday medical Friday morning pogs in shirt by 3 pm, too much to ask?
Will be rejected pretty soon I think. Then we offer more, which will be accepted. Both clubs probably dont want to seem too eager. United dont want to be seen as spending silly money without negotiating. Juventus dont want to seem like they arent putting up a fight to keep him. I think this all just posturing for the media.That's about £84m.
Definitely. But it's heartening we've reached the formal bid phase of the process. You'd assume most of the ground work and discussions have been done already, and the bit when we present a formal bid is quite late on in the whole procedure.No, it means United and Juve are in discussions. They could go wrong resulting in no deal.
That chat should take all of 5 mins!First offer is to set the base price for negotiations. It will go something like this-
United and raiola : Offer 103 million euros (juve + 20% raiola)
Juve : Ask for 125 so they get 100 million for themselves
Negotiations begin and a price in between is settled. Juve say ok. then we sign pogba.

Agreed. It's in the bag but everyone needs to keep their muppet calm while the usual farce of bid, reject, re-bid, accept is done in a giant face-saving operation.Will be rejected pretty soon I think.

Hope you're right, and I hope it doesn't take too long. If Juventus want €120m and we're offering just over €100m it shouldn't take long to sort it out, in theory.First offer is to set the base price for negotiations. It will go something like this-

I think there has been plenty of negotiations so far and inquiries from our side before presenting the actual offer.Will be rejected pretty soon I think. Then we offer more, which will be accepted.

The only relevant question for us (the fans) is whether or not the player is good enough. It's not our money, why on earth would we care about the fee. It's a complete nonsense.
