He also carried Arsenal to............ Oh wait.
Not true at all. De Gea's contract situation left us in a weakened position.
Don't think I'm pushing the realms of possibility by saying I don't think that's what happened at all.
This has been done for days now, it's obvious the journos want to put the spin to the biggest football related story off season. They want to get as much juice out of this as they can.
How the feck are you pessimists still falling for these tweets? Some have said they even don't want him because they can't take it anymore, get a fecking grip.

Brilliant. Purist let me get you some cold water for that burn!Forget the starting XI, he isnt even in the squad.Love it!
And Pogba's revenge for the Fergie treatment
Surely us buying him for a world record fee would be that.
The purist has dissapeared it seems lol.
The Purist is always talking nonsense - nothing new. Still funny, though.
If this does fall apart we go back to the old "wonky midfield" strategy that has served us so well in recent years.
We already lost Sanches, Gomes signed for Barca. Who is the 4th choice? Matuidi? a 29 year old PSG don't mind losing? Inspiring stuff.
We need to close this Pogba deal, no excuses.

Ouch.
You want me to screenshot the (lack of) edit log?
An admin must have edited that. Conspiracy stuff.
The post was made 13 months ago...not a few months.
Not that it really changes anything.
It's a joke.
I maintain that he's not worth 120million. But it was fun to wind the muppets up in their hour of worry.
He didn't even put the player who would start for any side not name Barca on the bench.
At the end of the day it's the player that decides. Can you blame Ronaldo for his desire to play for Madrid? No. If he was determined to stay here they wouldn't have got him regardless of whether the club agrees to sell or not.
I think that fans get the shits when Madrid is mentioned because it's quite reasonable that Pogba may decide to play for the CL champions.
I hadn't watch a lot of Pogba 13 months ago. It was around the time he was doing bits in the Champions League. But he had a poor final and I seen a lot more of him this season.
I was going off of name value. And a lot of people here are, too.
Unleash @Raoul - ban him!!It's a joke.

Although I do agree with what @The Purist is saying now. Pogba is very overrated
Thanks. We've all made mistakes in overrating players.
I could quote most of the posts in the Van Gaal/Mata/Depay threads. It's football - a fickle sport.
Doesn't that Pilib guy supposed to be reliable? At least about probably 100 pages back. Close to Mourinho, that he called couple of transfer in advance etc?
I bet you still haven't watched that much of him. Apart from the CL and Euros of course, which is the best way to judge a player.
Thanks. But but....but.
Perhaps I'm not wumming.
Anyway the deal is very close - make of that what you will.
Matuidi has done very well for PSG and the bosses and fans love and appriciate him there!
He's a very good player and would easily improve our midfield. His services in the past are the reason why PSG won't block a transfer if Matuidi is asking for it - they don't want to sell him they simply say it's his choice.
I rate him quite highly and he's impressed me over the last years. He would be a very good box-to-box player for us tbh.
No he isnt. He is in CA ffs. Italian journos associated with Juventus IN Italy dont even know whats happening. He is half way across the world with no contacts.
So you admit you were wumming then?. Thats should be a ban according to the rules.It's a joke.
I maintain that he's not worth 120million. But it was fun to wind the muppets up in their hour of worry.
I see. Not so long ago he claimed it's a done deal according to "sources"
I wasn't wumming, no. I was posting my truthful opinions, as of now. And it was winding people up to the point that they are looking up posts from over a year ago.
13 months ago, the majority of this forum thought that Memphis Depay was capable of 15+ goals in a Premier League season. It's football - it happens.
I don't think he was WUMing. I just think he is tracking back after he was found out
He's one of the best midfielders in the world and he's only just turned 23. How many would you say are better than him?
I think this is pretty much done. There are probably just a few minor details to iron out and/or Juve are being strategic as to when and how this will be announced.
One of the major reasons I think this is because of the behaviour of the Italian media. Juve are not leaking out any 'Pogba might stay/may go to Madrid stories' at all. I think if there was no firm agreement with us, there'd be media reports like the above all over the shop in Italy as it would be in Juve's interest to drip feed that stuff. Instead, the last we heard from all reliable Italian sources is that a deal is agreed or close to being agreed with large bouts of silence in between updates. They are just ticking along and waiting for United and Juve to complete a deal that's 99% done IMO.
And btw, for those that think this saga has been dragging on too long - if you actually look at some of the other similar big money moves that have materialised over the last few years for example Bale to Madrid/Suarez to Barcelona, you'll find that they also dragged several weeks. We've only been in a 'serious' position to sign Pogba for just over a couple of weeks at this stage - it's really not that long for a potential record breaking transfer,especially considering the player is on holiday in a different country.

I agree with your sentiments. This Pogba deal is starting to give me headaches. Why not throw the £100m at Matuidi and Verratti? PSG will eat our hands for that price.
The right back issue also needs to be addressed. We need a quality player in that position. A big club like ours shouldn't be playing Valencia as RB.
Yeah those arent his sources. He just goes by what the other journos are saying and calls them "sources".
How's Pogba changed in the last 13 months?
I'm not saying Sanchez isn't an excellent footballer, he is. But he's not better than Pogba.
