No. I won't stop looking it from that POV. I am a United fan. Not a Paul Pogba fan. I've heard that he has already said he'd prefer a move back to London if coming to PL. If, and it's only an if, he re-joined Conte at Chelsea would all the fan boys on here cope?
Ah I misread Enigma_87's comment. I thought he was saying Pogba was on 4.5m gross. My bad.
It doesnt mean shit even if they come out and say they arent selling their star player. They could very well sell him the week after.
Juve don't want to sell, just Pogba wants to leave.
Could there realistically be another club in for Pogba that we haven't considered? City? 
Well thats your problem then. Thats why you dont see sense in the decision he made. And where exactly did he say he preferred a move to London? And as if Chelsea can afford his fees and wages.

Nope, it's either us or Real (mostly us but can't discount Zidane's charm) for him now if there Higuain rumors are true.
Don't get me wrong, it is a big blow for Juventus, all I ment was that his comment more or less confirms the transfer of Pogba.
nah no problem. They all publish it net in Italy.
I'm very familiar with the 'narrative'. I just don't like it and I don't like Paul Pogba and his agent. The same agent who probably brokered the Zlatan deal to suck us into a price battle for his over-rated French client. As I say I hope I'm proved wrong.

No chance.
You say all this stuff about mercenaries but who should we sign then? There is no other option on the market which is as good as Pogba.
They cant pay as much. Please they are after Sane who is costing them upwards of £40m and Stones who is going to cost them around £45-50m and that after signing two players for £35m. No way they are dropping another £100m on top of all this.Could there realistically be another club in for Pogba that we haven't considered? City?
I would have preferred Kante personally.
Kante? They don't even play the same role! Pogba is all about the attacking third, a completely different player.
He doesnt exactly bring to the table what we need in midfield. We need more of a Pogba type player than a Kante type player. And according to your logic, what makes you think Kante "wants" to play for United and isnt moving here because we can pay him more than anyone else?
It seems the Euros really did confuse a lot of people when it comes to what Pogba is about as a player.
50% of Juventuz having a meltdown and the other 50% in denial. Looking forward to a full meltdown when he leaves.
With that being said, they are probably equally looking forward to our meltdown if he goes to Madrid.

You mean the guy that got plucked out of obscurity, won the title and got CL football. Who then decided to leave that all behind for extra money and living in London? Mercenary.

I think the media would have at least some information if that was the case. Don't think any club can go incognito in what appears to be the biggest deal in football ever
How could Fergie ever considered Rafael in midfield was a better option than Pogba ?
Even SAF had his flaws
Is there anything to stop them spending 200m+ though? Ffp is pretty much irrelevant now.
Do you think Mourinhos suggestion that other clubs were involved was an exaggeration?
I hope you are right. This would mean we have more bargaining power than them.
It's a mind game. The first side to flinch loses... Or something like that
.Pogba doesn't suit Pep's brand of football at all, why are people now worrying City are in for him?!
No worries mate, just referring to Mourinhos comments.
If Madrid had entered the fray sooner then I would have been worried about them beating us to Pogba. But negotiations are just too far along at this point for that to happen. I would be incredibly surprised if Madrid were able to hijack this deal.
Judging from some of the comments I really do wonder if many have watched Pogba play apart from the Euros. Sometimes I have to check if I'm in the right thread when I see some alternatives being mentioned.

I just prefer a Kante style player with a bit of steel. I've yet to see Pogba really take a game by the scruff of the neck. As I said months ago I prefer a Keane style player to a Viera style player. It's just personal preference guys no need to hammer me for it. And yes on the mercenaries front I think us buying him back for 100m + would turn him and he's agent into the ultimate mercenaries. Just don't like him. Can't help it.
They're both midfielders. United are buying a midfielder. He must just prefer the player Kante is than Pogba is.But Kante is nothing like Pogba
Maybe he meant Barca and Madrid were in for and they really were. Its just that they were both priced out.
And how many games has Kante taken by the scruff of the neck? We are talking about addressing what our team needs and we are more in need of a Pogba than a Kante.

I watched the euros. I saw him in the flesh versus Ireland. I understand my suggested preference is for a different type of midfielder and most don't agree. But there you go. I'd even prefer Matuidi!
I actually don't agree. I think our team needs more steel. Pogba doesn't deliver that.
Wow! Dont really know if youre wumming anymore.Don't think it will happen, but I'd quite like to see Matic in the United midfield beside him.
