You're jumping to a very hasty, (and wrong !!) conclusion there.
I might be missing something here but why would United brief jouros on a transfer ? I get when it's a big change i.e. the manager or structure changes at the club but a transfer, seems a bit pointless.
I know a large number of people on the Caf are obsessed with claiming every story is made up, or somehow unreliable, but all that shows is a profound misunderstanding of how football journalism works. Do some of them make up or embellish the odd story? Almost certainly. But the half decent ones generally don't need to, as they have every fecker close to these deals chatting to them on the side, giving him their version of the story. They may write the stories knowing that they may have been given the story with a particular end in mind - see Duncan Castles, for example - but once it comes from a good source they'll run with it. So, yeah, the story won't have quotes, but if it's come from two different, reputable hacks the same evening, you can bet someone's been talking, even if what they had to say was told to the journo with another agenda in mind.
There could obviously be thousands of reasons, but off the top of my head I'd say that briefing the media that we've a deal that we are confident of closing shortly might dissuade other potential suitors (ie Real) to try to hijack the deal.
Maybe the side effect is that Zidane freaks out, he begs Perez to move forward quickly etc etc.
There's quite an easy quote! Mourinho said he wanted his 4th signing sorted soon.
Certainly not leave it to deadline day.They're welcome to him.
You'll get crushed for that mate, the Caf is in raptures over his waddle and pass short masterclass tonight.
Thank you! Same thing is said every summer. Ducker and Ogden are on the more reliable side
But that would mean Real Madrid(One of the worlds biggest clubs) get their transfer updates by reading the the telegraph or the independent, they've clearly have certain problems(dodgy fax machines for a start)but I image their transfer connections are bit better than Mark Ogden from the Independent .
That's not to say jouro's weren't told something by the club, just that I struggle to see who benfits from it(Well part from the jouro's of course)
Two papers at once?
United have briefed so aggressively about Pogba, it will look awful if they don't sign him
Lol that's ridiculous do you really think people like those who run these big clubs are that dumb? "Oh we want Pogba but some journalists say it's a done deal so let's not bother contacting his agent or Juventus."
Bastian for Verrati or fek off.
Why do i have a feeling we are going to trade Bastian for Matuidi and end up having to add some money to that? PSG would have bastian, verrati and possibly james rodriguez as midfield.
I'd rather keep him, if he can stay fit we'd have a killer midfield with:
Bastian --- Pogba
------Morgan-----
Or maybe
Bastian --- Pogba
------Matuidi-----
Nice. Hope Random Task's friends are among those certain friends he told.
Basically says Juventus playing hardball and dont want to sell. negotiations still going on.
this never gets oldI think this is true. A lot of Rumours on Twitter about the people who live in e area he used to when he was with us, say he's coming back.
Also if im not mistaken it says that there is no official offer from United yet but it is expected from monday after the Euros. Basically Juventus intend to keep their crown jewels.
yeah looks like it
Ed...get on the blower ffs before Perez finds a spare £90M in the back seat of his Maybach
More like it's to respect Pogba and France so they can focus about their Euro campaign. We were just to show our true intention/interest and ready to offer, not just papertalk.
Sandro Ramirez joins Malaga on a 3-year deal from Barcelona.
Anyone else than that Johnno guy?
Would a L'equipe journo even know about that knucklehead?
Yes. All journalists scour the forums and Twitter for stories. They'll have come across that today, no doubt.
if Juventus doesn't nail the chairs to the floor, one of them is getting a steel chair shot to the head. Bah gawd, business is about to pick. Mino! Mino! Mino!
