Ironically, only Juve have had a window that is as good as ours as been.
Yes. Comparing player to player, we have

Zlatan vs Higuain
Pogba vs Pjanic
Bailly vs Benatia
Mkhi vs Pjaca

They have additionally signed Dani Alves but overall we have done better.
 
It's a good job 10 people told him it was an old picture, otherwise he might not have got the message :mad:
 
You're saying we're signing good players to become a better team and ensure we're competing at the top level?

Bonkers. ;)
Yes obviously but paying the sort of figures we're seeing I think is a product of that deal to a degree. Is Pogba worth that much? Who knows right now but that Adidas deal gives us the capacity and the need to spend that kind of money.
 
Don't know if this has been posted, but I did a Google search for "Paul Pogba" and this came up at the top of the page:

BAN ban ban!!!!
 
Serious question, with Pogba returning not only for an astronomical fee but also the fact he is now a truly world class player, will this be an embarrassment to SAF for not playing him and ultimately letting him go to Juve?

No. Not really. I mean it was a mistake but if it wasnt for him we wouldnt have had all this money for Pogba now. Who knows maybe he would left even if SAF played him. Who knows what would have happened.

Meh who cares. It was clearly a mistake to let him go but we got him back.

I think in private saf knows he made a mistake and pogbais a professional so i would see no issues

Definitely not.
 
Paul, we know you're refreshing this page just as much as all of us. Can you please troll us one final time before the announcement? Your route 66 photo was pretty good by the way.

No, all he really did wrong was not wanting to throw an 18 year old into the team, he wanted to bed him in properly and the boy was impatient and had his head turned. Genius move from his agent really. Fergie tried to convince him but it was too late. Don't see how that is embarrassing.
 
Pogba for the price of Stones and Sterling. Makes City's dealings on those 2, if Stones happens, even more hilarious
 
Point them to me, where it clearly words that's Juventus themselves will receive less than 90m, thanks when you get it, because most, including everyones favourite Di Marzio are claiming Juventus will announce the deal as 100m in THEIR(thus the "Juventus will net 100m") pockets while United and Raiola will sort the bonus fee out themselves.




True or not, but latest....

Well look at it this way how much money did Ferguson make this club? 1mistake that'll cost us what?£150m odd including wages this deal will prob cost us is a drop in the ocean compared to what Ferguson did for us.

We'll never know if we could have stopped Citeh advancing passed us if we'd given Pogba a go here though.
 
Yes! I'll be home in 30 mins!

Feck you Juve! Hope all my muppets are still up. Love the adidas advert.
 
No, but seriously... how did Woodward do that?
Because most likely these figures were agreed upon for a long time. Juve had to conclude their business before announcing this deal. Journos had to come up with some news everyday so some of the numbers were just thrown around without them being fully backed up.

Juve bought Pjanic as Pogba's replacement, used Pogba money to buy Higuain and in the process pretty much guaranteed another Serie A title. And now they are allowing him to sign for us.
 
True maybe not, if we can get one of the best midfielders in the world, and that means we wont be seeing the likes of bastian, fellaini, etc etc making the starting 11 bring on pogba, that mentality is like saying we don't need Jose since look at the competition.
"Since look at the competition"? What does that even mean? Am I talking fecking mandarin here? I know we've always spent big over the years wherever we've been success wise but in my humble opinion and it is just my opinion,not my mentality, that we're more likely to throw the dough around to make sure that deals such as this are maintained.

Shitty death.
