Why would them being PL players make a difference? Pogba isn't a PL player either. He has the same holiday as everyone else who played regularly and reached the final
Which PL club does Pogba play for?
Occupants picked up by a car and a people carrier
No idea. All I care about is that our record signing should be available and fit / gelled with the team at least for the 2nd PL game if not the 1st.
Is that a police chopper?
No. Police chopper is yellow. United's is blue.
I honestly thought that Pogba would be announced the day after Higuain became official. I thought that was what all the waiting was for - for Juve to get that one over the line before disclosing a huge amount of income.
Most people on here appeared to think that Juve could afford to keep Pogba as well as signing Higuain due the fee was split between summer windows.
I guess now the only thing holding this up is Pogba finishing his holis.
It's clear really. Evra and Griezman's leagues are starting 1 week later and they also don't need to get used to their teams whereas if we sign Pogba he will need more time to adapt and our league is starting in 10 days.
feck me I wish I had some binoculars.
He is not a Manchester United player, we can't tell him what to do or when to leave his holidays. He also deserves the same rest as everyone else.
BBC last year > http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/33321871
Point im trying to make is, there is no 'reliable' place for transfer news. BBC will only report things that they get told, clearly we are not telling anyone anything this year.
It keeps coming up but Di Marzio said the deal was done last Friday. According to most people. the deal is done and the confirmation is the only thing left.
I assume that he can already come in as a sub against Bournemouth, If we complete his signing early next week. I don't think he needs that much time to gel with the team. I would rather he was rested and not play the first couple of matches than rush him.
Wow, so we can't tell our (potential) 120 mil signing when to come over to Manchester. Sounds good, eh?
A telescopic camera would be even better.
No Tweet, no media reporting anything, no photos of Raiola in a pool, no Pogba sightings, no pics of kits from the Adidas store. no leaks from Italy, Di Marzio and the gang either.
There's nothing happening at all. This thread is just dead. Massive disappointment.
Would have hoped for some flight trackers to be involved by now or photos of some blood samples?!

@Carl you Sir have the perfect job location for a United fan and a transfer muppet.
View from my desk at work (taken just now, btw):
Nice view...
It's leaving now. Good timing too, because it's home time!
So has the Telegraph article been dismissed as rubbish then, ie nothing happening today?
I thought they were quite good , or use to be anyway.

No, we can't. He is a Juventus player. He is scheduled to return to pre-season training with them. He can only join us once given permission by the selling club. And again, he deserves the same break as his compatriots like Evra and Griezmann.
How fecking hard is this
Kante is back and played for Chelsea
I think Pogba played more games than Kante
Apologies, missed that part at the top of your post.
Outside of the BBC I think it's better to rank journos rather than news outlets themselves. For example there are some journos at the Mail and Mirror that are more reliable than some Telegraph/Times/Guardian reporters. The BBC are an exception because the story generally has to be a near confirmed 100% fact before they report. All the rest of the media outlets are very much open to scrutiny.
If he is staying at Juventus then fair enough. But if he is joining us and all is agreed as rumoured then I very much doubt Juventus care how much holiday he gets.
Well, the day is not over yet, so probably too soon to say. But most people seem to dismiss it. Let's see.
That's a bit of a cop and very convenient out isn't it? Even if he was bullshitting and it wasn't done in 48hrs, there's no way the muppets on here would know, as apparently nothing will be announced till he actually signs
Is it the end of the world if he isnt here to "adapt" when the league starts?
That BBC story was almost certainly true.
I thought it was generally accepted that we had bid for Ramos last Summer?
Why are people so unsettled over this? I don't get it at all.
Well nothing is the end of the world, we will survive even if he fails massively, it's all relative after all.
Yes it is. And I'm probably the first one to agree that footy journos have it too easy. Always making reservations to somehow keep their reputation.
But he did in fact say that the agreement between clubs, agent and player would be agreed in 48 hours. Not that it would be announced. The Telegraph said earlier today that it's a done deal and that it will be announced today.
In total, he played less than 3 games out of 7, and most of that was in the group stage. Basically put his feet up for the last 2 weeks.
And this is utterly besides the point
no, but it would be nice

He was clearly eager to join his new teammates in time for the new season
Huh? That was true. We did bid for Ramos. Ramos himself confirmed it.
Next Monday is actually the latest for this deal to be done. I mean we can't go on further and Pogba would already be off his holidays.
Well sure he didnt play as many games as Pogba and Pogba is still a Juventus and as of right now his league starts almost 10 days after us so he has more time to get fit. If Pogba was a United player already maybe he would have with the squad.
September mate.
