What would another club have to pay for Pogba if we were not interested? Because it's often we have to pay over the odds for players. I guess £70M?
 
Sorry to be that guy, but how can United get a meeting today when Ed Woodward is on an 11 hour flight to China?

Raiola will pretty much be acting on our behalf, all the details have probably been discussed with Ed. It's not completely necessary that he is there at this stage.
 
I'd love to know how these meetings go. I mean, if United know Juventus want more than €104m, why meet in the first place? One of those times it'd be good to be a fly on the wall to see what actually happens.
Probably to discuss how they can factor in bonuses that'll push the price up.

Ed took a 24 hour flight for urgent transfer business once, so I'm sure he can make the decision not to get on one if a transfer needed his time here.
 
Juve are such a small time club.

You got the player for free, now the club that developed the player wants him back and is willing to give you 100 million for him, why are they being such tight arses over another 10 million. You are getting a deal of the century stop being so greedy


They got him for free. They are the ones who developed the player not us, and now the club who let him go want him back. They are entitled the hold out for as much as they want. For them they have basically took a young player, turned him into a top class one, and are giving him back to where he came from - if United are willing to pay an extra 10 million they are entitled to haggle over it. He is a very important player for them not just some youth player who has bagged a few and is now sought after. The reason they want more money is because they AREN'T small time. They aren't just a stepping stone club who will just let him leave at the first good offer. He isn't playing for Ajax or Southampton.

What a team ladies and gents. Signing Pogba could be the final push that allows Rooney to be benched. Midfield is well balanced with Schneiderlin, Herrera and Pogba as the most attacking. The only (realistic) improvement I can see as another quality midfielder to replace Herrera; Matuidi perhaps.

You probably need to strip Rooney of captaincy then. Which is kind of certain to result in a leave.
 
Raiola brokering offer from United to Juve. Can he not just send a text? '100mil for Pogba, yay or nay? Ed's minted' At that money what the hell is there to actually talk about?
It's almost hard to believe you're not a hot shot CEO, man.
 
So it was always going to happen in time for Friday?
Submit an offer oj Tuesday, Juve rejects it to look as if they are putting up a fight and we will submit a slightly higher bid that will be accepted on Thursday so Pogba will fly in directly.to Manchester when he returns from his holiday on Friday.
 
You don't think it's pathetic for him to get that much after tax?
I don't see what all the fuss is about. Yeah £200k a week is a lot of money, but so is earning £50k a week. Premier league footballers are millionaires, some just have a few more million than others. Does it really matter?
 
GDS who ran a quote from Mino today are saying he's in Manchester. I'd be inclined to believe them considering they spoke to him today.

They're never in the loop.
 
Considering Raiola is the go-between, couldn't one assume Pogba has had some say on this? Would you really let your agent open bids for a move if you have zero intention of moving?
All parties are interested in making this move happen. Raiola can already see the funds coming his way, Juve are obviously going to give this the go ahead since we're paying about double his worth. We want him back and he's going back to where he belongs.

Give it a few hours from when the news story broke from Di Marzio for them to run it.

Always seems to be the case.

They lost their internet connection, once they get back on twitter they'll "break the news" from their "sources".
 
This is my first saga, is it normal to have 'a meeting to make a bid' so widley publicised?

Normally do these things not just happen under the radar? Just feels a little staged.
 
If they Juv are not willing to part with Pogba for 100m we should more on and tell them to go f**k themselves.

Go after Koke, Níguez or Verratti instead, they will probably half. Have spare change left over for Mahrez..
 
Each transfer saga is different. I will never forget Fergie personally going to the airport and bundling Berbatov into his limo.

Nothing about this is normal to be honest. Manchester United are literally sitting back and making the agent do the deal. Thats really not that normal

You aren't getting Koke and most certainly not Verrati for £50m. Wake up to the new landscape people.

£60M then.
At least we won be spending £120M or whatever the cost is for Pogba.

BTW: what are The Sun reporting?
Whatever they say will or is happening, the opposite is actually happening.
So, The Sun can offer a good indication of what is really happening. ;)

Their last report was on Friday and they said the deal will be concluded over the weekend. So this meant the deal would not be done over the weekend...which is what happened.

Welcome to the world of Raiola and Woodward. Raiola doesn't go to the bathroom without sending out a press release first. And Woodward is obsessed with showing he (and United) and going for the best players.

A world record purchase will be hyped up more than a routine one. This is why we're seeing the posturing. Pogba is obviously open to a move, otherwise we would not bid. Juve have let it be known that he can be sold for a record fee. The Madrid statements support this as well.
