This deal has all the signs similar to the Vidal speculation

If all of this happens, it would be Juve having a net spend of 60-70m euros, which they probably can afford (assuming that next season they won't sign many players). However, I don't think that it will be very healthy for them considering that they wage bill was already big as ratio of their revenue, and now with the signing of Higuain and Alves (and co) will be even higher. Add to that, they might need to rebuild their defense. So, I think that they will likely sell Pogba now, but there is some chance that they will make a last attempt in UCL with him, and then next season cover their financial losses by selling him and probably Dybala if needed.
Or FIAT pumping some extra cash in the team to cover their expenses, but that is more unlikely.
Precedent that we won't be fecked over just because we are loaded? If yes, then I agree.
No worries Jose, it's a done deal.
Will he have some sort of interview conducted by MUTV in China? Maybe we'll know more if there is one. I remember couple of years ago he did one in America where he said 'Watch this space'

This is what I mean with my own question. As in we have our limits with how much we are willing to spend but not to the point that we're willing to be ripped off or simply have the piss taken out out of us.
For what exactly? The man has done his job. You can't possibly expect every transfer to materialize.
You're hearing whispers from CEOs?
Is that one of the Glazers in the background?
That is what I mean,
I think financially they can afford it, all things considered but it would be an unhealthy financial situation. Very unlike Juve to put themselves into an unhealthy financial situation, so very unlikley.
Yep. We have a valuation on a player and we won't go above that. There's no doubt whatsoever that Juve want this €100m+. He's a midfielder and replaceable. In future if a club knows we will pull out and they'll miss out on that huge pay day, they'll think twice about taking the piss.
Everyone that has some knowledge on football in this world knows that we've been linked to him and that Woodward wasn't on the flight over there with the team. So if the deal was off, what would be bad to go out to the media and say that the deal was off. Not blaming this or that, just tell that we just couldn't agree on all things...
If the deal was off, it would be known sooner or later, so why not let everyone know?

this should be a caption threadNo worries Jose, it's a done deal.
Yup Avram Glazer I think
Jose looks worried.No worries Jose, it's a done deal.
If it was done, then it would have been done by last night, as it takes a fair few hours to fly to China from Italy/England. But didn't Di Marzio give an update this morning that a fee wasn't agreed?No worries Jose, it's a done deal.
Do you not have CEOs of major clubs whispering in your ear? Happens to me all the time.
Yep...looks like one of those guys in the woods from the movie 'Deliverance'....
The way Woody is holding his left hand signifies a person that has bad news to break, but they also blah nlah blah shdghshhsiwijshsgshajk!No worries Jose, it's a done deal.
You know who you are!
Was just going to say the same thing. He looks like he's just signed a cheque off for around £100m to me.
hhhmmmm is Eds face the look of " shit how do i tell jose hes not having pogba, just smile and stay cool" !

I was at the beach today and there was a dude in the middle of the beach with a Juventus shirt on. You don't see too many Juve shirts in Denmark, but what was even stranger was the fact that he was wearing it on the beach when it's nearly 30 degrees Celsius/86 Fahrenheit. Maybe it's an omen.

Could be, if the dude is Pogba.
What you all need is a random number generator, or it can be done with a dice if you have one handy. Generate a number from 1-6 and just post the corresponding comment variation:
1. It's on! (+ Masturbation reference)
2. (Di Marzio Quote)
3. I have a feeling that Real Madrid will sneak in at the last minute (+ sad looking smiley)
4. (A comparison with a past transfer saga that ended negatively) + re-roll and use corresponding player (1. Vidal, 2. Thiago, 3. Sneijder, 4. Neymar, 5. Bale, 6. Ronaldinho - only use 6 if over 30, otherwise re-roll)
5. (Long-winded account of Juve's financial situation)
6. This thread is (great and/or stupid and/or crazy - delete as appropriate)

'I 'ave it in me pocket, come, put your hand in it m8'.
The thing is with Vidal we were close but Bayern swooped him away for under noses. The transfer fee was around 40m however and not 120m+ so I think it is highly unlikley some team will sweep Pogba away from under noses. I really think United is the only team that want and can pay so much money for him this season.
Chances are he's been given information that Juventus want him to have. We don't know what went on at discussions between United and Juve. Maybe they don't want anything announced or they've deliberately said they want more money to throw people off. I don't know, but how common is it for an agreed fee to change, assuming of course we have agreed a fee with Juve
Came in here to post this! Face of a man who has done his job. Also notice the umbrellaNo worries Jose, it's a done deal.
If juve wanted 120 and now want more, it'll have to be a waiting game. See if they panic once they sign Higuain.
Let's not forget that IF pogba stays, he will want a huge pay increase. Is that something juve can offset with higuain also on the wage bill? I very much doubt it.
I think it Will be a good ending, but not this week.

feck sakes we're fooked

He's tall dark and has a funky hairstyle, does that count?
How so?
Hasn't it always been said that Juventus want €120m? So it makes sense that Juventus want more if we've offered €110m + €10m add ons. Nothing to worry about tbh.
Doubt Juve wanted something else and wants more now. I don't expect petty pissing about from professional organisations. Either we are just fine tuning the details of the agreement or have gone in slightly lower than what the initial demands were and figuring out a deal that satisfies everyone.
I'm off to watch a game later and I'll make sure to ask the higher ups if Woodward's an embarrassment.
Just reading on twitter that Sky Italia are saying Juve have rejected our improved offer and we have no intention of going back in with a better offer.
Think that might be it.
