Definitely, in the same way the pogba camp might be using us to get Madrid to act fast, we might be all in but doesn't make a difference, its up to the player.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.

Diference is the excellent relationship we have with his agent at present, I wouldn't expect him to try and screw us over, in fact I feel he'd love to have Pogba here with the rest of his clients.
I like how making an arbitrary observation on a topic no one here is an expert on is considering WUMing because we have differing opinions.Technically by that standard any posts on this forum should be considered WUMing. Just giving my 2 cents to some fans who are making fun of the Spurs aspiring to Janssen while we chase Pogba. I'm saying we would be better off chasing Janssen than possibly overpay or realistically not get Pogba. Because we have a real need at that position as a good young player who most people think is our future striker, is actually better suited to another position.
It wouldn't affect the relationship at all, we present an offer to him he passes it on to pogba. Madrid worried about this pass him on an offer too, which he then gives to pogba. That's his job, he has no further influence than passing on offers from teams, he won't be making the choice for him.
People are hugely overrating the role agents play. Does anyone genuinely believe Ibra let anyone else have a say in his transfer? did you see how much fun he was having with the press. With regards to mikhy the player said his dream move was united and wanted a move, the agent expressed his wishes. Its not like he convinced mikhy to pick us or convinced Dortmund to let him go.
That is the most English looking guy I have ever seen.
Edit: Aha! I knew I had seen him before, this is him in Me Myself & Irene

Homegrown quota? Load of rubbish!
He had a pretty serious injury, not sure whether it was his cruciate, but he did return for Derby towards the end of the season.
He should be signing for West Bromwich Albino.
Amazed Will Hughes hasn't been snapped up by a Premier League club before now. A United transfer would probably be a leap too far for him
Is our homegrown quota low? With all the young players we have?
Doesn't homegrown just mean having come through an English academy?
Then surely we have Shaw, Jones, Smalling, McNair, Carrick, Januzaj, Schneiderlin?, Lingard, Young, Rooney and Rashford that already qualify.
He would if Tiny Pupilis was still there
Surely we would rather promote youth instead?
I've had a pint with him. Really nice guy but he's a huge Liverpool fan.
Probably just the obvious Italian link and nothing else but if it is true then Costa must be on the way as this would be their second striker signing
youre assuming we are keeping all those players
I seem to remember him writing some crap about us on Twitter a while back so feck him. But seriously, The Sun don't even try to think up semi-realistic transfer rumours.
Must have known only one true Manchester, and mistaken with the Emptyhad owner with tht kind of reason then.
You only need 8 (?) to register full 25 men squads. Any U21, can be used unlimited.
We have more enough for the quota.
Must be a typo. 100 mil at least since he is the not breaking into Totenham starting XI quality.
yeh only need 8 over 21 to have a full 25. Story has no legs but i can see atleast 3 of those listed not being here end of summer. what do you think?
Football Manager wonderkid. See he had a bad injury but has he progressed much the last couple of years? I did watch him a year or two back (due to having him on football manager....sad eh).
He seemed to have really good technique, reminded me a bit of Wilshire when he first broke through at Arsenal. remember him at the time being linked with a few bigger premiership sides and was quite impressed. Not sure from what I asaw he is ready for a big mvoe, but I am surpised mid table premiership sides havent made a move. Could be a to player but so could WIlshrie have been and Im sure he was often injured when I was watchin him too.
Unless we offload more than half of our homegrown in the first team, then we still have enough to meet the quota. Buying for the sake of quota doesn't sound like us.
Does he not know how to put currency figures? Also his use of the word grand doesn't fill me with much confidence.
well you expect nothing from the Sun and the Mirror.Will Hughes to United for homegrown quota and Lloris to Real
agreed, sounds like city
If you're so confident I'm wrong, the bookies are your big friend. Or else you can make me an offer.
if I remember correctly wasn't Afonso Aves tearing up the Dutch league and he was made out to be the next big thing and I believe he scored 9 goals in one game over there. Only to flop to an unimaginable levels at Midillesboro.
But, the likes of Ronaldo, Zlatan and Suarez spent important developmental years in Holland.
Players report this week don't they? I imagine we'll be off to China in a week or so. We play Dortmund on July 22, City on the 25th, then the next scheduled match is Rooney's testimonial on Aug 3rd. I thought I read somewhere that we would play in Sweden before the testimonial but can't find that anywhere.
