I would think both Pogba and Mourinho would want to have a face to face meeting before this happens.

Based on your great knowledge of them as people, I presume.
Pogba isn't singing praises proves nothing. The fact is this is 'new' territory for United. Last summer when we were linked to Ramos, he did speak out but we didn't commit to countering Madrids bluff. A player won't always come out and say anything just incase the deal doesn't materialize. In addition, Zlatan knew where he was going a bit before he told us - but he wanted the drama. So he asked his agent and his agent did his job. Also the X amount of hours is bullshit so just ignore it. I'm pretty confident based on a few things but this is a transfer in and of itself. Doubts fine but everything has to be judged on it's own merits. United seem committed to this deal, it is a lot easier to complete then someone like Neymar and no doubt Jose will be in touch with Pogba on a regular basis.
Except the Vidal saga was the exact opposite, Marotta couldn't shut up for more than 24 hours without saying there was no deal and journo's like di marzio weren't reporting it lik it's merely a matter of when not if.
The only reliable source on this transfer (Di Marzio) said from monday it could be any day, Amoyal said last night that it would be "this week". It's the hype merchants like SKY and Telegraph that keep saying this BS.
Unless we have a fax stuff up, i think Pogba will be coming
Remember, the only reason we have De Gea is that the stuff up meant the deadline passed. De Gea was SECONDS away from actually leaving.God, the rate at which this is going I expect the next headline will be "Man Utd interested in signing Pogba" then the cycle will repeat ad naseum.
That doesn't make sense. Why would that happen? If people don't get daily updates they just start talking utter crap. There's no news as nothing is going to happen till he's back from his holiday.
And another morning started with uncertainty
No one can do the transfer of this level quietly. It's impossible.
Someone says your post is tedious, further down, personally there's nothing wrong with being a realist anything can happen!!, you are right. Until he's signed he is not our player, again someone talking sense trying to get slapped down by the cocksure, arrogant brigade.
It's not really sense, it's overly pessimistic nonsense.
We can only celebrate when he's holding our shirt and it's definitely definite , if that makes sense. It's becoming tedious tho
Well, a) we are interested in signing Pogba, and b) I may not have been being entirely serious.
ehsanul is back 
Thanks for the shout out bud. Produce something worth reading and perhaps i'll give you a shout out in return.
I miss @ChaddyP our fallen hero is watching this thread from above.
My money is on Raiola being spotted in the stands tonight.

Will there be Pogba chants tonight?
Agree 100%
It isn't done yet, if it was we would have announced it, until we do that anything can happen. Him signing the Juve ball pretty much sums up that he will sign anything put in front of him (so the Utd shirt thing was a load of shit).
It is also painfully obvious he isn't desperate for a move here (like Bale was to Real), still think this will happen, but if we haven't tied it up by Friday then the muppets will have run out of excuses. Yes he is on holiday, but should be back to training on Sunday, which for me means it needs to be done before the weekend.
He'd be hard to miss, tbf.
Just quickly, where was it made clear Bale wanted to leave? Press gossip, right? Just as press gossip now is saying Pogba wants to join United, believes in the project, has told his French teammates he's leaving etc.
Then, you mention Spurs were happy to sell for a fee, well so are Juve. They have a price their happy to sell for.
There's not much difference in the two transfers tbh.
And we also signed Bailly immediately at the seasons end, then wrapped up Mickey and Ibra quickly. Would have been even quicker for Ibra if not for the Euros.
Expecting a world record transfer to go through quickly might be asking a bit much. Especially as the player is still on holiday.
Yet you could argue that this being a done deal is optimistic nonsense.
Loads of stories broke on the Thurs / Fri to say the announcement was pending, that was just BS fed to the journos by Raiola and they believed it. Since then nothing, other that a Utd shirt being signed and telling some Juve fans he is staying.
Wasn't Zlatan still technically on holiday when he signed, but came to Manchester got it done and then was given extra time off.
No you couldn't argue that, unless you ignore ALL the facts.
I'm not going to lose sleep over it if we don't sign Pogba. I actually believe its done, as I've said before, I doubt Adidas would be making Man Utd themed Pogba adverts if not. Still, if it collapses like Devon Loch fair enough.
Yes, Pogba's a top player. Yes, he would improve our first XI. We already have a team good enough to win the title though. Right now I'm more excited about watching Man Utd play competitive games than anything else.

They announced him at about 9pm so maybe we'd do the same.
No
The whole sage is really annoying now. Needs to be concluded for both teams sake as it's hampering both teams plans potentially.
I've never read so much shite in all my life in this thread, but you're somehow the worst of the lot so far
Can't believe the Telegraph even gave that story the time of day, gossip pages or no.
Such click-bait.
Is this what the Telegraph have been reduced to?
Who broke the Internet?
I got 'can'ee take the strain' I thought it had been announced.
Damn it, I saw a "cannae take the strain" and thought something had happened.
I don't think it was ever likely it would be wrapped up while he is in the US.
Yes, unfortunately. The traditional broadsheet business model is failing.
