Given that it was tweeted by Di Marzio himself, I think most of us did.

Now you know he is also a part of all the bullshitters who love taking advantage of muppets who are ignorant and increasing their twitter followers. 48 hours was never ever going to be true.
 
To be fair to Di Marzio, he didn't say WOULD...if people can't read then that's their problem. This wouldn't be a typical purchase. Some people are unable to think of anyones interests but our own. Though he would miss some games, we have to believe we have a better squad then who we will be facing in the opening week or so.
 
What a load of shit.

In a couple of days it is closer to the 7th :lol:

It's pretty obvious what he meant. It'll be more like the 5th, 6th, 7th or even 8th, 9th after he gets back. I'm pretty sure they won't be completing all aspects of the sale without his involvement rather than the 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc. Basically, wait for him to come back from holiday which is common sense. Can't believe people are acting with such a lack of intelligence.
 
Because club, Adidas, Pogba himself will want to make as much fuss and hype around it as possible and making such statement would be something absolutely contrary to it.

I'm sorry I don't get this.

The hype on this transfer was last week, now people (not me) expect it to be a done deal it's kind of fizzled out. IF the deal was done, they would get far more exposure counting down to when Pogba arrives in Manchester etc.

But in a couple of days is closer to that date, so he is just tweeting for the sake of tweeting and it basically means jack shit.

But it didn't fizzle out though, did it? Say there's an agreement between the clubs, Raiola, Pogba, things just need to be signed and the whole marketing machinery has to prepare itself and start some campaign and other shit, you know.

It's just people who seem to be acting like 12 year old kids on too high sugar intake.

This fecker isn't cutting his holidays anyway so what's the difference if we announce him this or next week, it's beyond me to be fair.
 
Fairly sure Manny Pacquaio's quite religious too. Suppose a lot of sports stars kind of feel like someone's behind the incredible success they've achieved. A lot easier for them to be faithful I imagine when much in life has gone extremely well.

Actually... I sense a pattern here. Ronaldo, Ali, Pogba (myself :P ) all had crappy lives that later turned to be great. Guess it is easier to have faith that way.

No, it's painfully obvious what he meant. You seem to be picking up on semantics. He meant it was likely to be in the days closer to the seventh than the days closer to today. I.e the 5th/6th/7th than the 2nd/3rd/4th. Not that it was going to be closer to the seventh full stop. I.e, just wait until he gets back from holiday and stop rabidly posting about something that common sense tells you wouldn't happen anyway.
 
If the club announces the transfer then all the media will chase him around, even more than they are doing now, for interviews and all that.

Would be nice if it was done this week though
 
Did anyone actually believe those 48 hours?

I think there has been huge confusion over the 48 hours

27th July =
In two days @juventusfc and @ManUtd should close the deal for @paulpogba: talks ongoing between clubs

28th July =
.@paulpogba to @ManUtd: clubs are going to agree the last few details @juventusfc
(still at the agreement level)

28th July = agreement in place http://gianlucadimarzio.com/calciom...-trasferimento-di-pogba-al-manchester-united/ (agreement done)

29th July = Di Marzio Staff
Juve and Man Utd need to write paperworks, sign, pay Raiola... as said, need time to become official. But there's total agreement
(agreement done)

30th July = Di Marzio
Every day, from Monday, could be that good for the announcement and British journalists eagerly awaiting
(agreement done - waiting for signatures)

31st July = Di Marzio Staff
deal is done. They're signing contracts and then will be official. Just press officer know when
(agreement done - waiting for signatures)


IMO, people have confused the use of "done deal". Di Marzio and Staff are saying "done deal" because the agreement was finalised and committed to. This then moved to the ACTUAL final stage, signatures. When this is all done, its ACTUALLY "done deal" as we all know it.
 
People seem to think that Woody, Raoila and Pogba owe it to the transfer feckwits to curtail his summer break and bring him back early to get this all finalised just to appease them.

If we assume everything is agreed in principle what fecking difference does it make whether it was announced yesterday or gets announced next Monday? It's not going to change when he'll be available to play.
 
Reckon it'll be Thursday/Friday we see something official as by Monday he'd have been expected to be in training with Juve I think.

If somebody could threadmark this post it would be grand, people would finally stop talking shit.
 
I'm sorry but Pogba will make his debut much earlier. Probably mid August. We need to get points as fast as we can so Pogba will be expected to play a vital part.

Yup real clever rushing a £100 million player into the league without him having any pre season.
 
I was just browsing that Pogba thread in the Juventuz forum for the craic. There's a poster over there that goes by 'W' and he has an avatar of Poulsen underneath his username. He has to be one of the most inane, bitter posters I've ever come across on a forum with the most punchable avatar known to man. Not that I've ever had anything against Poulsen, it's just this particular picture coupled with this poster - I can't really explain it by I feel it's a match made in hell.
 
How many season tickets are left to sell? If they are doing well then maybe there is no rush to announce Pogba (assuming its agreed). Maybe they think announcing it a week before the new season will be a huge boost to ticket sales, merchandise revenue etc as people will be massively excited about the PL at that point anyway. If he is still on holiday then for the club there is maybe no rush if the agreement is agreed in principle.

There are so many factors behind a transfer rather than just sign the player and announce it

Preach it!
 
I think more pertinent than any journo report in indicating this deal is very much on, is the amount of nothingness OUTSIDE of this deal, at least in terms of midfield.

Our manager has said on live TV on more than one occasion that he will buy a new midfielder. He has also stressed the importance of timing on a couple of occasions, and that he'd avoid to leave it too late. Still, I see no moves for a Witsel, or a Delap for example. There is no desire whatsoever from the look of things to sign any other midfielder, apart from the one we have reportedly agreed a deal to sign.
 
I am chilled. If it happens then it will probably happen before Friday otherwise he will need to back to training with Juventus on Monday.

He's a lying git when he wants to be and completely open when it suits him, that is the only reliable thing.

So, if it's negative listen to him, if it positive don't. Don't belive what you read. Everyone are idiots. OK got it.

No you can make up your own mind whether to listen to him or not. He will only say something if it suits whatever agenda he's peddling, or if he gets fed up with people harassing him asking him about it.

But dismissing what he says...literally the only person to say anything who can possibly know anything reliable, then listening to other people who have no less reason not to make shit up than he does, makes no sense.

This thread for example is hundreds of pages of absolutely nothing at all. 50 people can put up an article about Pogba joining United and it wont be any closer or further to being true than it was before.

The internet has literally signed Wesley Schneider for United in the past, yet when the season started he wasn't there...
 
I guess a conspiracy theory can be made that Pogba is in NY same time as Madrid; but it's pretty desperate!

Holy shit. That's up there with David Icke and the reptilian agenda.

No Rory Delap? Well, that's certainly reassuring.:smirk:
 
Why do people need hourly reassurances of the same shit? :lol:...gets repeated over and over.

If anything changed they would mention it. When have you ever seen one of them reply to someone "well actually now you mention it he is off Barcelona instead"

People need to get a grip. Patience doesn't exist on the internet people just bash their keyboards out in a panic.

The people i seriously don't understand are the "if MUFC don't announce pogba at 2pm on thursday then it's likely not happening" posters.

Amoyal is seemingly being hounded by these people.
 
There will be a huge to-do from both United and Adidas when they announce his singing, so obviously he'll need to be present. If he's back from holiday next week I bet they won't properly announce his singing until the week after, so they have time to film all the marketing stuff.


Does anyone know exactly when he is due back from holiday ? Martial was in the same squad , same training everyday and has been back with Unired for 2 weeks !

This has been covered 800 times, read the fecking thread. Or search it.
 
How are we going to reveal this lad after all this hype and breaking records etc what would be a worthy introduction??

I heart you.
 
Last time in this read for me until it's announced.

In my opinion it's a done deal, and we are waiting for him to return from holiday.

Look at how long it took us to announce Mkhitaryan, according to @Sampy93 he knew it was done weeks before it was announced.

Just because it's not been made public yet, doesn't mean more stuff needs to be done.

I expect by mid next week it'll be done.
