Does anyone feel a throwback to the Ronaldo to Madrid saga, only that this time around we are the Madrid in the story?

I remember how confident I was at the beginning of the summer that Ronaldo will stay. Then doubts started to mount slowly, and then it escalated quickly and he signed for Madrid.

Must be same as what Juve fans are feeling now. Going from denial to acceptance.
 
If this deal goes through everyone seriously needs to bombard Ballbag's twitter account. He did pick United and he pick us even though we arent even in the Champions League while the other potential suitor IS the European Champion.

He wasn't given the choice between Real and Man Utd. He was given the choice of Man Utd or staying at Juve.

To be fair though, he has been saying Pogba is United bound for over a week. It could well have been that he preferred Madrid. Unfortunately, Madrid aren't swimming in cash like us. Can't even afford a new fax machine.

He didn't choose us over them though.
 
Helluva squad to be fair.
Bit heavy in central midfield with pretty much all of them underperforming last season so it'll be difficult to decide who Mourinho does end up binning.
 
I can't keep ut. As a part-time muppet only popping in after putting the kids, hubby and pets to bed, this thread is running away from me. Is he coming back?
 
Think its on. If its true they will ask for 120m then whats an added 16m when we want to spend 104m anyway. It'll happen as long as Pogba accepts. Crazy stuff really when you think about it, how we were a few years ago to now. Its like Fergie was the glue that kept football "normal" to a degree and since he has retired, all spending has gone mad.
Since Malcolm Glazer died we have splashed the cash.
 
With all the Italian papers running the story that Pogba has asked to leave, it gives us a clear path as Juve have always said Pogba would need to ask to leave.

Essentially, what has happened is our initial bid of 103/104M euros was rejected, Juve want 120M.

Reports this evening that Pogba has requested Juve to let him leave. So it's looking good.
 
Do you know something we dont Acquire Me?

No details, but this is done and believe it or not, has been for a while. Its done in the sense that Juventus did agree to make a deal with us a while ago. United have called it technicalities remaining. Marketing has been all over it and its going to be hugh for everyone.
 
Can we buy our way back into the CL now? :lol: Surely with Mourinho, Zlatan and Pogba we would've been one of the favorites?

Safe for me to make my bet then it seems.

Any translation?
Pogba weight in gold
Agreement with United, is a step from the Adda to Juve.French asked to be transferred to Manchester. Contact between the two clubs: 120 million will be the most expensive ever
If the middle are the Red Devils, then the temptation can turn into big business. Forget Bale or Cristiano Ronaldo, smile in the face of figures paid for Neymar and Suarez. After weeks of rumors, denials, dinners in Los Angeles with Ibrahimovic and more or less secret negotiations, Manchester United has agreed to record with Paul Pogba (EUR 14 million net per season for five years the image rights, at least another 5 million per year)
 
Jaysus. I thought I spent a long time in the wilderness.

I blame Moses. (I'm capitalizing his name out of spite)

I thought my 3 and 1/2 years was bad ... 7 years lad!! christ @elnorte :lol:

Yeah I know, it's fecking insane. Who else would last it out that long?

Big part of the problem was promotion system itself at the time combined with my own sheer laziness. It seemed so hard to get one 'like' never mind ten. So much so I simply could no longer be arsed putting in the effort to make decent posts and ended up stuck on three likes for years before the system was completely revamped.

Guess it's all been worth it for the chance to play an interactive part in this thread...I think...:nervous:
 
Once this goes through we definitely can't be talking this 'finish fourth' talk anymore. We go for the title, and quite frankly, probably as favourites now.

Seems everyone thinks City are favourites, but this is a team that finished level on points with us. They certainly haven't pulled away from us this summer.
