What an idiot, obviously knows nothing about football, "Are you the new Ronaldo" obviously he's a midfielder. "What is the first thing you're going to buy" he's already on 100K+ P/W any idiot with a phone these days.

I'm not disputing the willingness of Pogba to come or that we're in talks.
All I'm saying is that I don't think a deal is done at all, despite it being repeatedly claimed that all parties have agreed a deal..

It's never done until pen is put to paper, which we all know still hasn't happened since Pogba is still in the US.
 
Yeah that agent tweet actually means something. Firstly that something is happening and secondly that most of the shite posted on twitter or by the papers is exactlly that. One person copying something they hear from another.

What on earth are you on about. This is one of the few guys who actually does seem to report what is happening.

Rather than everyone else who zips between on, off, not sure day by day

No chance son. We're getting 1,000 pages on this one for sure.
The club won't want it to hijack either Ibra's debut tomorrow, or Rooney's testimonial.

Probably Thursday job. Plenty for another 180pages
 
Holy shit I come back to hundreds of people taking Raiola's bullshit at its word :wenger:

This is actually bizarro world in here
 
Santoryo said:
If anything Raiola was careless as he let it known something will be announced by either the UK or Italian media.

I mean any smart joe anywhere not looking to desperately find something to be pessimistic about could tell that he(unintentionally or not?) let it known that the deal is done and the media are fighting as to who is gonna announce it first.

Exactly, they're focusing on the deal not done part. No deal is DONE until all paperwork is signed, medical passed, and documents submitted/accepted by the appropriate governing bodies. Saying that it's not done, does not mean that an agreement hasn't been reached, and does not conflict with the numerous reports that it's just minor details and paperwork that's remaining.

A few days before Zlatan declared for United, Raiola said this:

"Does it have to be United that Zlatan goes to? Will the whole of Sweden not sleep if it does not happen?" Raiola told Swedish newspaper Expressen.

"We have yet to decide, it'll be a surprise in the end. Everyone talks about United, which is why I don't talk to journalists a lot.

"There are clubs in England and Europe, some outside of Europe, but everyone thinks he must go to Manchester United. It's not true."

Why do you assume that the decision was made by Zlatan to come to United already when Raiola said this? Just because Zlatan ended up at United doesn't mean that he was not looking for other options. In the end, Zlatan thought, United was the best deal and he ended up at United.

Just because a journalist is based out of Italy, anything he says becomes gospel. "Oh but he is one of the most reputed you know". There is no shred of evidence that a deal has been done. BBC not even saying that a deal is being discussed. But of course, they might not have good sources with in the Italian club. They also would not have any good sources within United since Manchester is not in the UK.

Who knows, a deal might be on the cards, but it looks like everyone is being taken for a ride by a tweeting journalist and that tweet is being copied by others ,rehashed / re tweeted and this makes it look like things are happening.

Might be on the cards? So what you're still doubtful this is going to happen?
 
What's the first thing you're going to buy?

As if we've just plucked him from poverty and obscurity..... Wait he did come from Juve and Serie A so TMZ have a point...

Not really. Considering it comes to this juve/pogba/raiola or even us would have doused off the wholr thing if there wasnt an ounce of trutj in it.

There's nothing about rumors and allegedly wanting a player, but when there's numbers quoted and specific contracts details being mentioned it's definitely not a simplr 1+2=5.

If nothing happens as in no deals or no offer it'll be an emperor new clothes on a biblical proportion

That adidas advert is all the evidence you need ffs, as well as the 4 most reliable journos in Italy confirming its done.

While that's all true, this is exactly why Woody is going all-in on signing him. There are maybe 5 football players in the world that would have American paparazzi hounding them to that extent outside of a club, especially in LA/Hollywood. Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar, Pogba, and that's about it. Maybe you could argue one or two others. He's just scratching the surface of his marketing pull. Wait until his brand merges with the Manchester United brand. It's all absurd, but that's a big part of modern football, especially the United model.
 
I reckon @ehsanul is the sort of guy that wears makeup and crywanks himself to sleep each night while listening to My Chemical Romance.

If you listened to any of the interviews Zlatan has done after he signed - you will see that he had offers from all over but, he had already decided on United. At least in that case it was clear Raiola was just trolling and not a reach to assuming he is doing the same with the couple of tweets we've had.

Railoa is the only one taking people from a ride with his tweets and some are jumping right on along side him. Think about it - he said nothing about Pogba in this or the blah blah tweet. It's an assumption being made as Raiola has other clients. As one tweet got posted - Balotelli (in England) possibly going to Italy .... you can't say for sure what deal he is talking about but, can assume. And that's his whole thing with his troll tweet - to get people talking when he is not really giving anything away. He know he can't say the deal is done until paperwork is signed but, he can still generate buzz by stating the opposite - which technically true due to the final paperwork needing signing.

It is close. It is not done.

How hard is this to understand really?

It's done, done dealio. Did you watch that adidas advert?

It's logistics and admin that's left, which is natural when you're parting with so much money.

Pirlo talked about how he can go anywhere and not be bothered and the man was an absolute star for Juve and Italy. Pogba while very recognizable, I don't think would have got anywhere near the attention if this wasn't about United as well (or Madrid / Barca). Only 3 clubs IMO that can really elevate a player's personal brand to the stratospheric levels. It's going to be a win-win for all the parties when this deal gets finalized - most of all for Pogba because he is so young and if he truly realizes his potential in the next 2-3 years - he'll have even greater options.

While that is the case, things can still fall through. I am not saying that will happen but it still could. The main point is that he is still on holiday so there is really no rush other than in silly people's heads and obviously it is not the simplest deal in the world to get over the line.
 
Just can't work this out, the Adidas/Raiola stuff is just weird, gilding the lily a bit too much I think.

I just hope we're in on it, and are not been played by these weirdos.

A done deal behind the scenes doesn't exist aye?

Not really no. There could be some preagreement but you are foolish if you think he has signed for the club already. Details probably will not trip things up, but they could and have done in the past.

The only way this falls through is if he fails a medical, which is highly unlikely to happen.

Please explain how the Adidas advert proves it's done? Because I'm obviously too thick to work it out.
 
Adidas are very simply just milking the fans' attention. They would not be much good at marketing if they didn't.

The Manchester United crest in the actual advert, Stormzy walking outside of Old Trafford wearing a United tracksuit top?

I'm genuinely surprised you don't see that as a sign.
 
It's all done, we're just holding back for the huge announcement when Pogba has finished his holidays. It's what United will want and it's what Adidas will want and it's helped Juventus close deals before everyone knows for sure they have a huge cheque in the bank.

All my guesswork of course but I'm as good as certain.
