The thing about Pogba is he was brought to the club just before Ronaldo kicked on and United went on that domestic and European run. He was here to experience the buzz and excitement of that period. He then leaves after we reach a CL final so didn't really observe any down time at our club.
That has to leave an impression on a young player. Knowing what status is he capable of enjoying if Mourinho and he bring us back to those days.

exactly.... at the start I figured it was some click bate Bull shit like neymar and Messi bids. but it really seems we are trying to get him. we may or may not succeed but clearly we aren't being cheep skates and willing to give Juve silly money, willing to give pogba silly money and willing to sign all of Raiola's clients as bribery for him to push through the deal for us.
If Manchester United offered me £24m.. I'd be telling Pogba Real Madrid will demolish his career too.
Pogba could really be the marketing gem we have been missing. Woody would have him eating noodles out of his Adidas boots on an Emirates flight in no time!
well these guys are legit, if Di Marzio, L'Équipe, Massimiliano Nerozzi say there's movement on Pogba's front you better believe it. Only one missing from that list of super ultra reliability is Carlo Laudisa when it comes to Juve.
we're being used. it's so blatant. Pogba wants Madrid, who aren't looking at him, so he's going to make them take notice. It's like the slutty girl that flirts with the poor chump to get the attention of the dude she wants to bang.
When will it be our turn to bang? WHEN!!

Yep as I said we're going to strike first hoping that it'll be enough to secure Pogba. It's our best bet.
@Brophs (you know nothing...).
Wayne resurrection post no. 101
I think the biggest miscommunication so far is this idea from a growing number of outlets that we only went after Mkhitaryan to sweeten Raiola to the idea of signing both Zlatan and Pogba. With the increasing reliability of the rumours that our pogba interest is genuine, I believe the club seriously wanted all three from the get go, and it was just a happy coincidence that the same manager represented all three.
Agreed. He happens to have a striker, an industrious attacker who can play on the right, and a creative central midfielder on his books. We need three players with those descriptions so we've not only gotten into bed with him but also decided to go balls deep. No reason why the relationship can't be fruitful.
Well, apart from him being a scumbag and probably screwing us in a couple of years time but we'll cross that bridge later.
Rooney ruins everything
This whole thing screams of using us to build up the hype and force Madrid's hand, it really does.
I'd love to be proven wrong, and I couldn't even care what the numbers involved are, but I just don't see this one happening. Although we're clearly trying.

Yawn. This is not as tedious as the Neymar nonsense but still this isn't happening, I'm 100% sure of it and this is based solely on me having no clue whatsoever, just my gut feeling regarding United and major transfers never coming to fruition.
I'm confident if he isn't playing well Mourinho will drop him unlike LVG.
Usually I'd agree and I still doubt we will sign Pogba but what's giving me hope is the transfer fee. It seems nobody but ourselves are willing to pay it (at the moment) and his agent suddenly loves United and Mourinho, there's a chance it will happen imo.
He's coming home.
There's a real chance it will happen but I suspect Real will all of a sudden 11:59 find the money......
The fax will be the key again.
Lol. Make sure it's turned on would be a good start....
I don't mind chasing big names, I just hope we're sensible enough to have a good plan B. Going all out for Ramos and then signing nobody at all can't be allowed to happen again.
If Real do sign Kante it could get interesting.
I wouldn't mind Kante if they take Pogba though.

Madrid sign Pogba. Madrid has to sell one or two to make way. Hames to PSG, perhaps? Mou will get his main target, Kroos. 
I feel like Jose won't let that happen, we've already got a few key deals sorted, and now going for the big ones.
If it doesn’t mean we lose focus on realistic targets go for it Woody. It would be an exciting signing and with Zlatan, Mikhi, Bailly and Mourinho as our Manager it would make us the team to beat and favorit for the title next season. I would love it to be feared and hated again.
It wouldn't make us favourites for the league, but we would certainly be in the conversation for it.
If only we didn't have the Europa League distraction.

Di Maria?
Is he better then Ando and Cleverley though?
Did we sign Di Maria from a club who really wanted him to stay...No not really, also to the players own admission he wanted to join PSG and had it not been for FFP he would have.
If Real do really want him and his desire is not solely based on a weekly wage I'd imagine him joining them over us, Pogba has been quoted as saying his preferred destination is Barca but it seems they cannot afford him so yes we have the financial muscle to get him but I wouldn't be surprised if he stayed at Juve either. I'd love to be proved wrong but I really do not see this signing happening.
That is a close one to call. I mean you are talking about two legendary midfielders there, two of the all time greats.
Assault on Pogba, contact United-Juventus - La Stampa
What happened with the transfer ban for Real Madrid? Last I heard they were having an appeal
Isn't it funny that we accuse Mourinho for not trusting kids when we've let such world class player talent go because we insisted on SAF's golden oldies and kids?
Who is Nerozzi?
Just going to leave this here, close to 33,000 posts on their pogba transfer forum thread. If he ends up at United, will be so sweet!

I've no doubt that we're in for him. But with Juve saying he's not for sale, having no need to sell nor replacement and Pogba not angling for a move (in the way Targaryen did) then it still seems like our Neymar bids.
