That's pretty embarrassing coming from someone that's born in 1974, if your nick goes by anything. Pogba's career is not stagnating - and he will surely start for France in every game this summer if fit. You're allowed to have opinions, but writing them as facts is a bit far-fetched. As for the open door and all, it's a bit different for Pogba compared to let's say Blind, Darmian and Shaw. Pogba is a hugely political transfer, the others are not.
All I see you post about is Pogba leaving. He's not going, I can't tell if you love him or hate him.
So it is £53m then
Calciomercato: A deal is not yet finalised with United, but there isn’t too much distance between the parties.
Juve are offering €13m plus bonuses, taking into consideration the fact Darmian’s contract expires in 2019.
"The exact transfer fee has not yet been disclosed but it is understood to be a little bit more than the £17.5m release clause in Dalot's contract at Porto.
The clause does not become active until June 30 so United are prepared to pay up to £19m to land the Portuguese youngster before then amid competition from eight other clubs."
Ah the old double signing. I'm liking it.
Nothing beats the Anderson-Nani day.

Dealio Done.
Now for Alex Sandro, Bale and Alderweireld.
4312 formation.
Sanchez behind Bale and Lukaku.
Pogba, Matic and Fred behind them.
120 goals scored.
One can dream no?!

Glorious day, that was.
Still remember the shock that we had nabbed two hugely hyped up young talents together, followed by frantically and gleefully watching their youtube clips which looked bloody incredible. Sigh.
Darmian: +12 m gbp
Dalot: -19 m gbp
Fred: -52 m gbp
Sum: -59 m gbp.
Last season spent (including sales): 137 m gbp
Season before (including sales): 124 m gbp
That's rougly 130m gbp a year. I'd say we have around 70m gbp yet to spend - with no outs. Not enough for Bale + Alderweireld and another leftback unless we sell.

Multi million pound deal with Chevrolet and its a Mercs bringing Fred to Carrington. Oops.
Amazing that United, in their biggest spending years in the club's history, are still spending about 100m less per year than City. I would hope United can put 250m into this team this summer, but if they did I bet City would just do the same, again.
I think we'll out spend them this summer, only because I do not expect them to do much past Mahrez and Jorginho
Would assume that Blind is definitely on his way out, and probably one of Smalling or Jones (if we're signing Alderweireld). Those two won't fetch a huge amount, but maybe another 25-40m between them? Plus let's assume Fellaini leaves which frees up some salary...
All good points.. I think Rojo will be first out the door though (~15m gbp) That might leave around 25m gbp worst case scenario, as you said.
So we might have around 94-110 m gbp to spent in the end (And we probably already spent a good amount on Sanchez this winter). My best guess is that we wont go for Bale, unless we sell Martial. There is also Lindelöf, who we might assume is last in the rankings.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Serie A champions refuse to pay more than €12m, while the Red Devils are asking for the ‘Everest’ that is €20m.
Is this guy reliable?
Long story short: We supporters and journalists alike know feck all about our actual targets, actual prices for players, and the actual wages of the players. This is why I can never understand why some posters can always have such heavy reactions towards some rumours on Twitter.
Indeed who is he and why should we care what football.london have to say?
Everest are a double glazing company who when you say no to the first price they quote, magically accept 25% less. Maybe that's what he means?
I don't feel like we need another centre back anyway. Think the money we would need to buy him could be used in other, more urgent areas.
It's the London equivalent of MEN and Liverpool Echo. The local news platforms derived from Trinity Mirror.
I really think we need someone to play out from the back and step into midfield with the ball. Our current CBs are quite limited technically and too static, which really hurts our build up.
If he signs for City and suddenly he will be rated, despite many saying he wasn't good enough when we were linked to him last week.
He's great going forward, but somewhat questionable defensively. I quite like him, but there's no question his development has stalled in recent years.
I think Lindelof has that in his locker definitely but for one reason or another it hasn't happened.
He does carry the ball well for Sweden and I am still confident he will be good here.
Yes I think that's exactly what he was brought in to do. I haven't written him off yet, but I'd happily swap Jones/Rojo for someone with proven ability in this regard.
Without wanting to divert the thread, I personally do not see anything in Lindelof to make me think he will make it here. He hasn't impressed me at all.
Anyway, I'm not a football manager so what do I know? I trust Jose knows what he is doing.
I think we need to sign a better centre back this summer.
What about Schneiderlin and Schweinsteiger?
Italy did well for him in that regard, improved quite a bit this season
