He's an outstanding talent but he has a pleb for an agent and has been talking shite in his ear for a while now. Sadly, this ships sailed. With all this money etc, there's never a certainty he would be as motivated as he should be. His agent was the worst thing that could have happened to him. Not in financial sense, but his agents a leech.
Pogba available for €100M to interested parties
- Thread starter Sassy Colin
- Start date
I'd pay the 100m euro for a peak yaya toure.
he isn´t anywhere near peak-yaya. Not that I´d pay anything close to 100m for peak yaya.
To an agent, Nicolas Anelka had the perfect career. We should avoid mercenaries if we can.
Would rather spend 100m on Verratti.

City bound, I would guess.
Nailed on for City, shame.
Perhaps Barca or Real will take him and give us a clear pass on Gundogan but we could afford Pogba anyway if LvG would make him one of priority targets.
Pogba as Toure's successor sounds right for City that's why United should try to sign him even at some heavy cost.

If he were City bound he would have left last summer imo.
Why are City such boogeymen to posters on here?

Two phones. One of them is red. How is this anything but ON?
Plus no more Fergie to be butthurt about. His summer vacation parties with Memphis and reunion with Lingard in a friendly may remind him that he's valued here. I'll be surprised if Evra didn't convinced him already if we're talking about legit departure from Juve.
Midfield cooperation with Schneiderlin and having Martial in front of him should be accommodating enough. Just saying.
Because they already have Aguero and Silva and De Bruyne and if you add Pogba you could be looking at alot of the top 5 PL players for the coming seasons. We have Rooney, Mata, Lingard, Martial, Depay.....No contest really on paper.
You know maybe just maybe he visited Manchester for the fun of it, sure he has a few pals over this way.
Fun? What's that?
Now you mention it I actually have no idea...... City bound.
It isn't a contest on paper at the moment and they only have one more point than us. City can't help but underachieve.
Not many players spend their days off in Manchester. Pogba likes Manchester, he even mentioned that when he left that he was leaving for sporting reasons but he felt like a Mancunian. I would be surprised if his next move isn't to one of United/City.
I'm not even sure if signing Pogba to play in our current system would be worth it.
He's a brilliant player don't get me wrong. But as part of the midfield duo his main job would just be to maintain possession with the boring sidewards passing LvG has us playing.

If he has the same offer both Utd and City, who do you think he will go for?
He's 22. LvG will be with us for a maximum of one more season after this.
Look at his agent. Look at how his agent moves about his biggest names. He'd probably be at the club for three years max.
No thanks.
No thanks.
He's no worse than any other agent. He basically got that reputation due to being the agent of Ibrahimovic and Balotelli. I'd say that for at least 3 of the moves Ibrahimovic's made under Raiola were moves that were pushed upon them. He was basically forced out of Barca and Milan by the clubs and left Juve due to the calciopoli where they were relegated. The only moved they truly orchestrated themselves were logical progressions from one club to a much larger one.
And Balotelli's a muppet who makes himself impossible to keep at any club he touches.

Doesn't even look like Pogba
It's funny how papers jump too conclusions. He was in Manchester visiting his old team mates from the youth set up.
Think Pogba respects United too much to go to City. Not sure he'd come back to the EPL any time soon anyway. Think his next move will be to PSG.
Pep, Ronnie and Pogba in the Summer it is then.
Watched him a few times for juve this season, I'm not sure where he'd fit in at United.
One of the double 6 pivot. Thats in our current system. However, I personally feel his best position is the 8 in a 433.
Pep and Pogba to City
^ along with Messi.
With FFP I don't think we'll have €100m to spend on Pogba until 2017. If he moves this summer I reckon it's to Barcelona or Manchester.
I don't think anyone in human history has ever held Manchester as an ideal location for a 'citybreak'.
We can all believe whatever we want but I know he was seeing a few of his old team mates from the youth set up. Might just be a decent lad who stays in touch with old friends.
He says he still loves United and will always support us so this automatic City bound nonsense is a bit over the top.
John Wesley did. He liked the place so much that it became one of four conference centres established during his lifetime.
Yeah, Fair enough.
Is there any chance of us moving for him this summer?
Reading SSN that City will have an "unlimited" transfer budget this summer, I date say they will chance him too.
