The team isn't built around Pogba, he isn't essential. In fact outside of Chiellini and Bonucci no one is essential, Dybala might be in the future though.

He isn't essential per se, but I'd argue that he made their midfield elite - maybe best in Europe. They still have a formidable midfield but one that lacks dynamism right now IMO.
 
In fairness "no contact between United and Juve" could technically be true

These big deals sometimes are done by third parties, in this case Raiola. I remember United leaked that they signed Juan Mata without once speaking to Chelsea directly
 
Just got back from seeing Guardiola lose at the Allianz Arena which makes it a good day, even better one now that Pog is in everyone's mouth. For a long time i've got a hard on.

We're gonna win the fecking league!
 
I was here during those transfer sagas (Sneijder and Vidal) and the media reports on those two players were nowhere near close to what they're for Pogba. For starters, Di Marzio maintained that we had no contact with Juventus over Vidal throughout that transfer saga. There were a lot of bs media reports from Chile. My memory of Sneijder transfer saga is not as good but from what I recall, the media reports were nowhere near concrete. There was a whole lot of muppet speculation in that one (same with Vidal) just because we were so desperate for a world class midfielder.

IMO, Pogba is a done deal, it's just a matter of time until we agree the final fee with Juventus (unless it has already happened). When we're willing to spend over a 100 million euros on a player, a few additional million euros won't stop us from seeing this through. At the same time, obviously we have to negotiate and can't give in to Juventus' demands right away.
I think Sneijder confirmed that he was in talks with United and he felt at one point that he was going, but after Inter sold Eto'o they had no intention of letting Sneijder so.
I'm sure at the time it was a case of one of them were to go, and Eto'o went first. So the reports of us being interested and being close to signing him were true, to the point where he thought he was going, but they fell through due to Eto'o going.

The reports about Pogba seem to be a lot more concrete and a lot of journo's are putting out the same info. Of course we have the whole Woodward not going on the tour due to transfer business stuff which brings back memories, but i personally think this time it's the real deal
 


Any spanish speakers can tell us what it says on the left hand side with the picture of Pogba, our badge and 120M?

EDIT

 
Def sounds like we're going to make it happen. The kind of money no object signing that we prob promised Mourinho to convince him to work again.

Bookies believe it's close 1/10 odds and paddy power taking down the Pogba next club market:boring:
 
Time to pack it in, I need my beauty sleep.

I hope come morning thread title will be the same or even better.
Good night lads.

i was trying to read the replies when he deleted it so i did what any reasonable person would do and hit printscreen
 
I would guess United's target is to have Pogba on board for the City match in China. That would be a marketer's dream, wouldn't it. The biggest player making his debut for the most popular club against their biggest rivals in front of the biggest potential audience in the world.
"Pogba to Man United" and a lot of emojis. Was a tweet by Griezmann's brother, who is a United supporter. Probably just a muppet like the rest of us.
