If Mino throws a few more chairs I reckon this will be done by the end of the week.
Not really worried one way or the other any more, we've offered an obscene, record smashing amount of money and if they're still whining it's not enough then they can find someone else to pay it.
Man can someone reassure me because this doesn't look like concluding anytime soon.
I'm optimistic now.
Di Marzio was just assuming that because Raiola looked nervous that nothing got done in the meeting which is not the case.
He started throwing tables around with Dortmund, with Juve he comes out shitting himself. He needs to stop fecking round in swimming pools and start lobbing shit at Morotta and his wonky eye if he's going to earn his 25 mill.Just remembered that the last time Raiola got frustrated he brought us a certain targaryan

It's more that Juve are taking the piss and banking (literally) on our desperation. Call their bluff.That's easy to say but let's be smart about it. Any agents fee could be used for things in the future. The club aren't stupid. They know that if he lives up to his potential, his value will go up. Even if United paid his fees, that could be for his loyalty in future dealings. It's not all black and white and we don't have to cut our nose off to spite our face.
That carefree picture in the swimming pool must seem like a lifetime away now #prayformino.If Raiola is frustrated that's good. Clearly wants his money and will do anything to get it so he will try to force the deal.
I was thinking on similar lines.I think the quote just means that finishing the Higuain deal is the focus for Juv currently. Once everything is concluded they will focus on the Pogba transfer
In this case Raiola's way is our way. He's trying to make Juve pay what they agreed to pay when they signed Pogba. Juve want us to pay.This isn't looking too likely to me anymore. When Fatman doesn't have his way, you know things aren't looking too good

Up? Good luck to them ever getting an offer like this one again. In an ideal world where the player accepts he's staying and is fully committed again, you may be right. But they'd be left with a player who wanted to move and saw this move sabotaged by his club's refusal to accept a world record sum and pay his agent's agreed share. It would turn pretty ugly for them. They'll cave in eventually.That's easy to say but let's be smart about it. Any agents fee could be used for things in the future. The club aren't stupid.

Raiola always looks a littly iffy.
How does "some small details left to sort out" translate to the deal not looking likely?This isn't looking too likely to me anymore. When Fatman doesn't have his way, you know things aren't looking too good

That's the caf for youHow does "some small details left to sort out" translate to the deal not looking likely?
Pogba might want to stay now that they have strengthened their squad so much. If Juve can afford not to cash in now, that is. Their squad with Pogba is probably stronger than ours.
When the time comes and Juve want a player from us, I hope we give them hell.
And good luck to them negotiating with Raiola for any future players. Their saving grace this time around is that Pogba is a calm head and wont make. Fuss to push the move forward.
Looking at it again I misread your original post. I thought you meant Juventus. My post doesn't really make sense now.There is an upwards trend. There are certain clubs that get the itch. There's no question about that. I wouldn't want us to sell him anyway to be honest. I think he could go down as a great
How long til we surpass the Vidal thread??
I can't open well the list of tweets so I don't know if it's already there but there are rumors about a Madrid 1st bid for Verratti.If that was the case Madrid would be definitely out of the picture
People are excited to finally sign a superstar midfielder. It won't be the end of the world if we don't get him but this dragging out is getting annoying.This thread is nuts. People get so emotionally vested.
If we get Pogba, great. If not move on to target 2 or 3. What's the big problem? Mourinho's got a plan right?
How on earth do you come to that conclusion? Literally everything points to Raiola (who just carries out his client's wishes) pushing to get the deal done.Everything about this suggests stalling on the player's side. I just can't see him re-signing for United.
I'm optimistic now.
