This is maybe not directly relevant in terms of the transfer, but... In the beginning of this saga I believe Pogba had around 4,5-4,8 million followers on Instagram. As of now he's got over 6 million. Do you think there is any chance that he's actually interested in dragging things out just to be the centre of attention for just that bit longer? Obviously, once this deal is finally complete, things are going to calm down and go back to normal. Maybe I'm just reading too much into things, but he doesn't seem to be in a hurry.
This is what happens with every major transfer. The pendulum of transfer probability swings wildly from one club to the other to generate as much interest as possible.
The media love these sorts of deals.
I think you're entitled to your opinion.
Yeah.
Evil.If Madrid wanted to offer that kind of money, they would have by now. Such a huge transfer won't be done at the bat of an eyelid. Lots of preparation, including tapping up Pogba, would have to go in for this. Though I agree that if Madrid came in, there is only winner.
Yeah, you're probably right! Was just a hunch. Maybe he just isn't really pushing that hard for a move and is just enjoying his holidays.
Yeah that's true but they apparently pulled out of the deal because James wanted to stay. There's obviously something to that because if they could buy without selling, then any deal they wanted would be done now.
It's stated that Real had someone bid €71m or so for James but he didn't want to leave so that scuppered the Gomes deal. So unless they can convince James to go and quick, they ain't got much of a chance of getting Pogba
What I don't quite understand is that how are Real so skint all of a sudden? Having to sell James to buy potential like Gomes? Doesn't make sense.
Madrid can have Pogba, they just have to give us Bale 
We'll then sign him when he wants to leave Madrid...

Ripping the reward lol.
Just announcing myself as a lifelong muppet, though I may only have 5 posts a day in the mains I shall be watching this thread very keenly. Get it done Ed!
If I could have any of their players it would be Modric.Madrid can have Pogba, they just have to give us Bale
A lot of journalists just trying to get the last dregs out of the story by mentioning Madrid interest. Like when PSG were going to make "a last ditch attempt" to get Mourinho a day or two before he was announced
Great player. I think Bale and Matuidi would be fine for us personally. Though I want Pogba back. I know Modric/Kross are great players but I think we're still short outwide and Bale would make a big difference in the final third for us.
Three things that were virtual certainties for United this summer José then Zlatan then Pogba
All 3 sorted before thé end of July, what more could you wish for?

Januzaj contract was under Moyes and to avoid a repeat of Pogba
This - people need to remember that, it's always more interesting in their mind when someone get's beat. It would be the biggest transfer so naturally they'll make the most out of it. United beating Madrid to his transfer would interest a lot of people - more then if everyone accepted Madrid weren't in for him.
That's quite possible but I truly think that if they were serious about Pogba and they knew of our interest, they'd have had him a long time ago. They either can't or don't want to pay the fee that Juve want and we can and will.
We all know what Real are like, if they want a player they get him. Seems like this time they can't or they're really struggling too
He's a bit old. Quality player but not sure how much longevity we'd get out of that deal. If we were to take a Madrid cm I'd take Kroos. Still only 26. Very happy with the imminent signing of Pogba though. To those worrying about a late Real intervention, I really don't think there's any chance of that. It's not even possible for them to afford any Pogba deal without selling someone big which they obviously hoped would be James Rodriguez but looks like he's pretty much given them the finger and said I'm happy to collect my paycheck. Honestly think the delay is solely due to Pogba still being on holiday. As soon as it's finished, things will move very quickly imo.
You also have to factor in the agents influence. I'm not sure they would want to deal with him. The idea of someone potentially being talked into a move in his prime - away from Madrid, wouldn't sit too well with Perez. It could happen though. These agents influence runs deep cause some of these footballers havn't had to be much of an adult.
It's too late for Real, the deal for Pogba to United is almost done.
Well they can't force him out. The most they can do is not play him. If he's happy enough to sit on the bench while still collecting his wage, then he can do that until his contract expires. I'm guessing di Maria wished to continue playing and was offered a similar/higher wage than that he was on at Madrid, so was happy enough to leave.
One guy at twitter posted a pic of the new United shirt with Pogba #6 on the back. I loved one of the comments he got: "bold move"
Please let there be news tonight. Please let there be news tonight.

Pogba omission
Paul Pogba has been left off Juventus’ Twitter header ahead of the new season.
That may seem inconsequential, and indeed it may be, but isn’t odd that the club’s top player isn’t part of their Twitter account?

Oh for god's sake
No because the Twitter header is against a certain team that Pogba isn't playing in.Pogba omission

Hahaha You got me here.
Absolutely, providing we can get that last one over the line.
Raiola threw chairs at Juve HQ. What's he throwing now when he's not getting his 20 mil?
His weight around. He'll bring the whole HQ to the ground.
Sorry but this means Nothing. Pogba have contract with adidas. And juventus sponsor is nike. So it's normal he won't be in cover.
Just like ronaldo never in madrid cover because he have contract with nike and madrid sponsor is adidas.
yeah, rumors are that you cousin just got married, don't know If confirmed
No because until it is announced by the clubs no deal is final
