Good luck in dealing with the Napoli chaiman.
No way he will reject that kind of money for a 28 years old Higuaín, I know he's refused offers in the past but if Juve really offered 94 mil. he can't refuse that..

Anyway I think it's bs, people are having a go that Pogba is not worth that much and now Juve are prepared to pay that kind of money for Higuín?
 
Agreed. Even if Blind wasn't in the first team, his versatility would be such an advantage given that he can play as a CDM, LB and CB. I would be disappointed if he were sold, as he's the perfect squad player.

Agree perfect squad player, but why people rate him so highly as a starter including pundits and fans I cant understand, especially as a centre back which he really isnt for me at all, no pace or strength and he is rubbish in the air dealing with crosses and flick ons. Do we really need him when we have two very good young left backs and a shed load of central midfielders as well because currently I would only keep him as a centre back ironically bearing in mind Bailly is young and inexperienced both at the club and in the premiership, Jones is always injured and the young dutch guy is also inexperienced (and a central midfielder in the making for me), Rojo is not that good and then the youth players are youth players after all.
Blind is one of those I am not fussed either way if he stays or goes, a bit like Mata he is a good player but doesnt really fit in anywhere ideally. There are others I would mor ethan gladly see leave before them that is for sure
 
We've seen this film before and know how its going to end. None of these tweets mean anything until something actually happens, at which point everyone will be tweeting about it at the same time.
 
I've been reading his tweets for years, but who actually is this Pilib de Brún chap? He just works for TalkSport?
Works for some American sports radio station I believe. Got ties to the club, interviewed players and people associated with United, on this show.
 

I've been following him for a couple of years and he does seem to get things right. I know for a fact he has excellent sources too.

Not saying that means it will definitely happen, Pogba leaving, as things can change. But I trust that is well sourced

He is not saying that Pogba is leaving. That comma is there for a reason.

For me he's second choice LB. I think he's definitely better than young Borthwick there. If Blind was quicker, stronger and taller, he would be close to world class in all his positions he could play, but physical attributes are very important in football. Either way, he'd be a solid squad player for any team in Europe imo, due to his versatility.
 


fecksake. Skrtel & Toure gone. Sakho in limbo, And Subotic just went to Middlesborough for 8m. Now we're forced to looking at CB again when it should be LB & midfield.
 


Wish we'd hurry up. Ideally we want most of the business done in time for everyone to have a full preseason.

Yeh I've been quite surprised at you lot this window. Thought you'd be further ahead in your summer business.
 
Mata is 3'6" and this is not ideal for a midfielder. Fellaini is 7'1" and this is not ideal for a midfielder. Together they are the perfect height.

"Thirty-four plus 18, divided by two, is the perfect age for a football player. So our two strikers are exactly in the perfect age, because 18 is not the perfect age, 34 is not. So I think they can be an amazing complement for each other."

Heard a similar comparison somewhere, knew it! :D

Had a channel on SiriusXM but I think it's just a podcast now. Haven't heard it in months. He's not a WUM by any standard and does seem to have sources. I agree, the comma is there for a reason.

Nah I thought the opposite. Conte would assess the players in pre season and then buy players after. Similar to LvG in 2014.
