Interesting, as in the 3 players we already brought in or 3 players we have as options to bring in as a central midfielder? I wonder who the Pogba backups are.

I'd say 3 players to fill the midfield profile

No doubt Pogba is nr 1, I have no clue who the other 2 back-ups would be ? Maybay James Rodriguez and Andre Gomes ?
 


"I don't confirm and I don't deny," said United boss Jose Mourinho. "I cannot tell you.

"I don't think it is correct to speak about players of other clubs. My directors did a fantastic work to do 75% of the job I ask them to do. I gave them a few options. We have just 25% to do until 31 August.

"We are in great conditions to have a great market. We are calm. We have three faces to fill the profile. I am confident Mr Woodward will get the player we need to get a good balance."


I am sure this means that "75%" refers to the three new faces already brought in. The last 25% refers to Pogba. Not three options for midfield

Yes but when he says "we have 3 faces to fill the profile" that suggests we have 3 options in mind for the 4th signing.

No, I think he meant that we have already got 3 faces to fill the profiles we needed to (Bailly, Ibra, Mkhitaryan). We are after the 4th one now.

I disagree, he'd already covered that part with the "75% done, 25% left" quote. Who knows though.
 
It's simple.

3 options (Pogba, Gomes and Matuidi) for the last (fourth) signing.

Mourinho wants four signings, we've signed three and soon to seal the fourth (Pogba).
 


Marca and AS: Pogba not a top player, he wanted Madrid, transfer is 'lunacy'.

:lol:
 
I can't see tweets on my pc, but click the 'date' on the part of the tweet that is showing and it will open in a new page. Sure it's annoying if it relates to Liverpool signing Crocodile Dundee, but you never know, it could be the tweet that means Pogba is done.
