The wife is dragging me to Cheshire Oaks for the day. If he hasn't signed by the time I get back I may just end it all.
Paul Pogba | Undergoing Medical | Helping out the Laundry Ladies

It doesn't have to be any of those. He could very easily just be enjoying a holiday with his client.
Socrates says hi
Key word you missed was athlete. Different sport from 30 years ago.
Rooney gets slated for it, among plenty of other things.
You know it!
Guys have we established that quoted from Keegan from daily mail are fake? I got up and was really excited by then. My heart can't take anymore of this, sign him up woody.
Socrates was fantastic though. Careca too.
Platini smoked. Cruyff smoked. Messi smoked. All are an all-time greats. And the list goes on and on

Sir Stanley Matthews played even in his 50's, winning Ballon D'Or at 41 (although the tempo was different at the time, granted)

That's not even worth mentioning, as you say - different times.
Less ciggies, more stalking lads. Getting soft here.
And all of them would have been better footballers for not smoking (to one degree or another). Heck, maybe Messi could find it in him to run more than half the average distance of his team mates in a matchPlatini smoked. Cruyff smoked. Messi smoked. All are an all-time greats.

Messi smokes doesn't he? As does Aguero. They probably only do it on holidays though
Well, I can only mention Messi and that would be enough. It's not like they are a heavy smokers too - I'm sure that Pogba only smokes a few cigarettes on the holiday, and that doesn't impact your performance. When you're a heavy smoker for a long period of time, your lungs get fecked, you can't run etc. - but one cigarette (or even a hundred) won't do that to you.
It's bad - mostly because it's a disciplinary issue. But it's in no way critical.
That's bad enough, but yeah if they were puffing it every day then they would not be able to compete.
Footballers should obviously smoke

Can definitely agree on that.
So Messi would be more Messi if he didn't smoke?
fecking hell it was a cheeky e-cig on holiday, he wasn't shooting up heroin 
Some in this thread aren't happy unless they're moaning.
What has this thread become?

A day at Cheshire Oaks would have me ending it all Pogba or not.
That's not Raiola in any of those photos from the Sun.
I think it's very likely we will move on to another target should he not sign by the end of the month. I don't think Mourinho wants to start the season with the current midfield options.
If it becomes clear we're not signing him, yes I expect we will sign someone else. Surprisingly enough.
In my opinion, it's not even a conversation worth having as this deal is only a matter of time away.

Thing is, did he ACTUALLY confirm United are in talks to sign Pogba and that they could sell him?
From that report it doesn't look that way.
Actual quotes from Allegri: "Pogba is a Juventus player at the moment but we don't know what is going to happen. The club are looking after negotiations."
Cue journalist "connecting the dots like a two year old". Muppets go crazy. Constructed reality denied. Muppet suicide. Repeat.
Yes those dots could be connected by a two year old as it's pretty easy to read between the lines as to what he means.
Reading between the lines? Yeah. I trust journalists to do that. We have signed Pogba 43 times already.
That isn't Raiola
The question was reportedly on United signing Pogba.
Ya see right there...stunts your growth!
This smoking is some damn good material to buff out this thread so we can beat the transfer thread record.
I'm glad you're convinced
I've been burnt too many times to put any trust in "reports" or "exclusives", so it's fair to say I'm a sportsjournalist atheist.
Well it is a scale my friend.
Smoking one cigarette per day is not comparable to smoking 10.
What thread am I in?
I think muppetitis has snapped me.

Zidane was caught smoking before the 2006 final wasn't he?

He is one of the better journos and he was in Melbourne too. Looks like it's true frankly
Only because he wanted to save the butt for the final.
Ooo very good.
