Do you want Pogba for £100 million?

Makes me wish the signing gets announced out of the blue just a couple of posts short of the thread record.

Anyway, where do we reckon Pogba will play? Or rather I should say: we know Rooney will be the #10, so would we be getting the best out of Pogba in a 2 man midfield? He clearly struggled there at the Euros.

He struggled when asked to play deeper, we can play him in a two man MF but in a box to box role and he'll flourish.

You can't ask him to sit and play the role of a Makelele, it's just not his game. Deschamps criminally wasted him at the Euros. Should have given him the role Sissoko had and played Kante.
 
Sorry to go all ehsanul on you guys, but I really think this isn't going to happen now... Would love to be proven wrong, but it is what it is.
 
Not to whet the appetite or stir the muppetry further but, United's twitter has been quiet for 3 hours, in the lead up to LVG being sacked it went many hours, same pre-Mourinho announcement. Sometimes they post obscure youth/reserve/foundation related tweets that have been set possibly days in advance just before going in with the big announcement.

Honestly I reckon the poor social media intern has to do all the photoshopping so can't find the time to tweet about On This Day, in 1976 bollocks etc.

Really think it's that close?

Hopefully will be done in the next few days, for most of the caf's sanity.
(Slyly trying to get the record breaking post).
 
Tbf though @Damien the Vidal thread was like over a year long.

This thread has exploded because we truly believe it will happen and the fee involved has also added to the discussion.
No, this thread has exploded due to the same stuff being posted over and over and over and over and over and over again. Every couple of pages people were posting articles and stuff like they were new, with same old discussions about how we could buy 72 world class players* instead of buying Pogba.

*number slightly out
 
This is one of those moments they'll be asking about in 10 years time. "Where were you when the Pogba thread broke the Caf transfer thread record?"
 
You play Pokemon go? Signing Pogba is catching Splorax. Never played it before today but apparently that's the best Pokemon!

Nah, but a guy at work was running out on the parking lot to catch something today :lol:
 
Congrats guys. Your personalised messages from Paul Pogba are on the way.
 
Since nothing is actually happening with the transfer, the post count kept me going.

Now that we broke the record, im in an existentialist crisis.
 
Signing is imminent now that the transfer thread post record is beaten. Watch this space
 
Grown men competing for the post that surpasses Vidal. This thread is really bringing out the dregs of society.
 
Flurry of post, feck all has happened. Looks like a regular day in the Vid... I mean Pogba thread
 
I know the Pogba thread is longer than the Berbatov thread but it really feels different. I guess the Caf and myself were different back in 2008.
Back in our day, we only had 20Mb internet and had to wait 0.3s to see the page after hitting F5. Not like these kids of today with their 200Mb malarky! Grumble grumble.
