I doubt it will go for a month. Maybe till the end of this month I think things will get sorted out and he will be a sub for CS game.

That was because Real thought they could wait til Deadline Day before bidding. They didn't count on Woody taking a sledgehammer to our fax machine.
This transfer will drag. The fact it's only being reported today we are preparing a bid, after a month of speculation shows how much it is already dragging! I predict this may even go down to deadline day like the Bale world record deal did.
Popped out, came back and read the last 10 pages. All I can say is 
Thread turned from dead to gold in the last 12 hours or so.

If everyone knows whats happening in the meeting why have a meeting anyway. surely facetime or skype should be fine
So they can all share some wine and a mince pie (fecking disgusting btw).
Not a chance in hell. Just because the media has been talking about it for ages doesn't mean the actual deal has been dragging.
That's banworthy.
No chance.
Well someone has to lead all these muppets.you know what's ironic. I just realised that we both are the top posters of the thread
The indication I get is that it is miles of happening. Juve want to keep him and the player doesn't even seem convinced.
Sane to Manchester City has been dragging on even longer. I find this saga moving rather quickly given the circumstances. People are just still burnt over Vidal saga
This is starting to sound exactly like the Vidal summer. The story starts to break early summer, player away for international duty, lots of Italian papers start to say it's close to completion, the ITKs all say United are "preparing a bid" and "set to present offer", nothing happens for 2 weeks and then player stays at Juve and moves elsewhere next summer. Just need some Juve officals to come out and say every player has a price etc but they want to keep him. It's sounding very very similar to the Vidal summer for me and I'm not even a Transfer muppetry skeptic.
Raiola would not be meeting with Juventus as reported if Pogba didn't want to move.
Damn straight
Sums it up for me. Juve say that he would need to ask for a transfer. he doesn't seem arsed at all.
Woody is probably figuring out an instalment plan....i just get the impression it is now a matter of sorting out the finer details with Juve.
The last 10 pages
Pure caf gold I tell ya

They're disgusting. I cringe everytime I see them everywhere over xmas.
I'm prepared to cut LVG some slack here...probably lost in translation. He was probably referring to Port (wine) and a mince pie. Rather than normal wine.
The fortified wine tyically has a raisiny flavour that enhances a mince pie.
your average glass of red is going to be "well hangin" with a Mince pie.
Anyway. Back to the Pogba thread! Cheers!

He wouldn't have to arrange the meeting if Pogba really wanted out.
Pogba will want to stay at Juve but Jose will be desperate for him. He would probably happily move to Madrid but not us. The agent seems to be the one pushing for this as the fees are astronomical.
I want the player as he has star quality, I'm not arsed if we paid £300million. BUT, what I don't want is a Di Maria case where he reluctantly joins us in late-August, and clearly doesn't want to be here.
People act as though Juve are small-time, but if he stayed there they would have the team to be a contender to win the Champions League. We aren't even in that competition.
And then they sell Vidal for £25m a year later to bayern. Shit heads.
I think our dithering had much to do with our concerns over his fitness. We didnt want a strootman
There's a big difference with Pogba, he's been here before and has clearly stated that he still loves the place.
personally i don't think he has any qualms about returning to United.
I don't think Pogba wants to be disrespectful and flat out demand a transfer. If there was nothing in it, Raiola wouldn't be meeting with Juventus officials imo.
As for the Di Maria comparison, we'll have to wait and see if Pogba comes as to how it plays out. I don't think it'd be like that. Pogba and Di Maria seem different in their personality and character.
Agree that Juventus aren't small time though. They're an elite club. That's also why this transfer was never going to completed asap. Buying players off clubs that the club want to keep is never easy.
Yeah, well, I cringe whenever I see you!
Exactly, I understand some fans are still hurt by the past but this is a completely different case. This kid has the mentality of a winner. IF he does come he wont leave until he's won a couple of titles and a CL.
The way I take it is that Pogba would be happy to stay at Juve.
In that case - if United feel that it is worth paying £100m to have Pogba play for them, then Juve will think it's worth turning down £100m to have him play for them. His importance to them would be that they would have an unreal squad ready to compete for the Champions League, possibly higher than the perceived importance he would have for us.
Obviously it would be different if Pogba wanted to leave, they would happily take £100m and see him off as it's a great offer and why keep an unhappy player? The reason I believe this transfer is dragging is because he hasn't asked to leave and Juve want to keep him. That is what the Italian media are saying.
Now, it does get to the point where the money becomes so ridiculous that the club gives up and accepts the bid, that's the only way I can see this transfer happening - as that female journalist seems to think.
Then, if he does come how committed will he be? I agree he is a different character to Di Maria, and it may be a stupid concern..only time would tell and Jose is an inspiring manager. For all I know he could be excited to put right what he left behind, it's just the case that yes he would have stayed at Juve but he is also happy to go to United.
We'll see. All I'm saying is Pogba is on holiday until August 6th and he doesn't seem in a hurry to sign for United. This deal will drag on in my opinion.

Pogba is in the same situation DDG was in last summer. He doesnt mind staying but at the same time he knows moving would do him a world of good. But he isnt going to ask for a transfer because he doesnt want to alienate anyone especially the fans if the deal falls through.
Every time a poster comes in here we give them the same reply. are they not bored with it
come on folks
1) yes are aware some think he isnt worth the money
2) yes we know some of you think this is like di maria saga
3) yes we know some of you think this is like vidal saga
4) yes we also know some of you think this is like thiago saga
5) we are also aware that some think signing 3 players is better than signing just him
6) It was also brought to our attention that some of you think he will leave to madrid in 3 years
7) we are told also that he isnt world class yet
did i miss anything
I agree.
Di Maria was an exception rather than the norm. Plenty of players aren't at their favorite clubs but still give their all on the pitch because they're professionals and it's their jobs to do so.
Agree. Look at De Gea.
Really! What a post.
Zidane is more famous than giggs.Every time a poster comes in here we give them the same reply. are they not bored with it

It's nothing about disrespect - if he asks for a transfer than he will lose out on a loyalty bonus - it's purely a financial issue.
I think we can cover that with a signing bonus.
Forgot about that. Mostly that then.
