and also for his chances in the Belgian NT.

Not a chance. He's by far the best player we have for his position in the Belgian NT (attacking wing back) and Martinez doesn't care if he plays in China.
Martinez won't be the manager after the WC, let's see what the successor decides to do with the players in China.

Anthony Limbombe could do a decent job in years to come, but there is still a big difference in quality and experience at the moment.
 

Madrid will sell Bale this summer

A chinese club offers 70m€ for Carrasco, including the commissions.Monaco would get 25%. Simeone is reluctant to the transfer


What does 'including the commissions' mean? Does this mean the tax?

I can't see this happening.

If it's including the China foreign player tax:

€70m = a €35m transfer fee for Atletico, minus the 25% they owe Monaco equals roughly €26m they would pocket for him in total, a ridiculous fee for Carrasco in today's market.

If it's not including the China foreign player tax:

€70m = a €140m transfer fee for the Chinese club. Also a ridiculous fee to pay for Carrasco (at the other end of the spectrum).

In another tweet they said around 40 to Atleti,18m to Monaco.
With commissions I guess they mean agents + bonus for signing but I don't know.
Yes,Its a really low fee but Atletico CEO said today that "He has the door open if the offer is good".
The tweet said that Simeone is reluctant to the transfer.Personally I think he is more than happy if he leaves.
 


El Chiringuito: "CEBALLOS wanted to go to LIVERPOOL in winter and the CLUB wouldn't let him. Something's going on. "

 
If we let Pogba go again, let’s just say it won’t go down well.

Pogba has actually performed very well most of the season, it would be a travesty if we sold him

Correct. There’s a lot of rewriting of history going on both here and the media. I’ll be livid if he’s sold. Sure, he’s got a lot to work on and I think he really needs to drop some of the bullshit and gain some maturity but you don’t sell a player with that ability at that age.
 
Pogs going nowhere. Mou has said worse openly about Luke Shaw - who's fortunes have turned around drastically. A less than flowery patch wont force Jose to flog the Pog. Media stirring nonce as usual.
 
I think that would make for an interesting thread actually, would you support Pogba or Mourinho if it came to it.

I was going to make the thread. I've posted before that I'd drive Mourinho back to London myself rather than see Pogba leave.

If it actually came to that, there's no way that United, of all clubs, wouldn't back the manager in a dispute with a player.

If their relationship is broken irreparably, Pogba is gone, so lets hope they sort it out (ideally in time for this weekend!)
 
Incredibly shot-sighted post

It's not at all. Id rather keep Jose.
90m all on Pogba was never the right move, I made a thread about it at the time. Now hes here I want him to succeed but he's shown glimpses. Between him and our manager Id keep our manager. There is nothing short sighted about it.
 
Can't see any reason why anyone would back Mourinho over Pogba. He never lasts more than three seasons at a club. Odds are that he will be gone within 18 months one way or another. Pogba could be a key player for another 10 years.

So you would rather keep the manager who made that poor decision?
As well as the many others like Matic, Lukaku, Lindelof, Mhiki... yeah ok.

Matic Lukaku Zlatan were all good buys. Same with Sanchez. Im not going to dispose of a manager for buying one player for too much money.

Pogba might yet prove to be a good buy, but im not going to blame the manager when a midfielder cant play in midfield. If i had to choose between the two id quite obviously keep Mohrinho.

The idea that either Pogba or Jose leaves is a fan fiction.
Selling an 89m signing whose just 24 is incredibly short sighted no matter how you cut it.
Especially as you say, he's shown glimpses of his quality.

Read my first post which said IF I had to choose between them.

Pogba has already been a good buy. The best outfield player this season
If we're measuring by high standards then Matic (who has been awful in our side for over a month) is getting a free pass whilst Pogba is being slaughtered
 
Yeah Pogba can feck off if I had to choose.

I'd imagine you're in a minority there. Among fans and especially among the people who would be making any such decision.

The amount they've invested in Pogba, they're not letting him go.
