It is yeah
Well, Leicester just got a new CB. Allegedly.
Entitled to your opinion of course, but if Pogba completes this contract I'd be amazed.
His body language, relationship with JM, his complete lack of effort in the second half of the season (who can forget his *marking* v Sevilla etc).
Tbf, this was posted by a Leicester fan in the Maguire thread:
Such a BS merchant. We could write these tweets.
Happy with this. Important player for our national team.
You say that but we still have 5 CBs at the club, 6 if you include the new signing. Seems like too much for 2 positions, unless we're going with 3 at the back?
Bring him home to be our back-up striker.
Damn, Axel couldn't get a PL loan?
No top club would go near Boateng with his injury record now and he slower than Fellaini
I think it is Bayern who "leaks" interest to get bids on him.[/QUOTE]
As if Ed is reading these papers for ideas on who to bid on - Just doesn’t happen.
This is just clickbait to sell papers.
I reckon it's not so easy these days with all the money lower prem clubs have. At least he'll get played
How so? We still have 5 CBs. He was on loan last season too.
If we sold a senior CB like Rojo I could see it the connection, but sending Axel out on loan again has no bearing.
Hope he has a fantastic loan and comes back more experienced and ready to play for us. Have high hopes for him.

Good move, he needs a season out on loan, looked decent on the tour though. He was a bit unlucky at Villa last season as I believe he got an injury.
Are United a bit stupid or what? The timing?

What?
That the fans are desperate for them to sign players and they announce yet another global partner. I hope it is a good amount and it goes towards a player.
Well obviously he's probably brought a nice condo out of it.
The fans or Mourinho?
Bit of a shite thing to get annoyed about in fairness.
I would say both, as it is obvious there a big faults with the team. Problem is of course the players the manager appears to want and the players the fans want are different.
Pogba going this summer would be catastrophic.
I am not annoyed about it as such, but everytime there is the slightest bit of unrest they bring out one of their global partners.
If a player wants to leave get rid of them. I couldn’t care if it’s peak messi. I am absolutely sick to death of footballers and their agents, get on with your job and give some notion that you’re worthy of hype before gunning for a next move. If Pogba were to leave tomorrow he would have been a catastrophic flop. ‘I’m coming home to Manchester to win’ or I’m coming home for a massive pay day until my agent wants another.
If he has no intention, stays and does great then fantastic. If not, bye bye.

Alderwereld has been applying pressure on Levy to sell. With this in mind, I believe our approach for Boateng is an effort to force a lower price on Alderwereld.
At least I'm hoping to heck that's what is happening.

I agree. Or just pay an extra 20 million for Maguire or Alderwereld! Why settle for a 4th choice target at 40 million?
Usually I’d agree, but not in our current state, we need to desperately keep hold of our few great talents, otherwise whoever comes in next to manage us is in deep trouble. Replacing a player like Pogba in this current market would be a nightmare. Thankfully it’s a worry we won’t have this summer.
With only a few days to go, we'd be silly to put all of our eggs in the Alderweireld basket (unless we've been given very strong encouragement that a deal will be done).
Seriously! Do you think that teenagers runs this club?
Negotiations isn’t a straightforward process where “Ed and Daniel” is haggling over a few millions. If anything United has already launched a bid and waiting for a response. If Levy turn it down we probably just leave it where it is, the rest is a waiting game. A possible outcome is that Toby’s agent will step in and tries to negotiate with both parties at the same time. Then nobody lose face. Reasonable fee if we looking at previous transfers between English clubs is in region between £45-55m. The VvD transfer isn’t comparable so anything above £50-55m must be valued as premium regarding Alderweireld. If Levy refuses to step down we probably just walk away and say “see you next year”.
I’m more fascinated why a RW or a LB isn’t on the table. Either the right quality isn’t available or I’m lost for words. Buying Sandro with Darmian the other way would be the obvious choice from my perspective. The other mysterious thing I don’t understand is the future of Martial. Either we give him assurance that he’s in our future plans or we just do the right thing and put him on the market. Right now it’s all hidden in the dark. Nobody benefits from this approach. Another thing. There must be a RW out there who’s better then Mata & Co.
Samuel Lukchursttrying his best to be as miserable as possible.
This man is on a mission against a special Portuguese manager, for me Luckhurst is a clown without credibility. Being negative is one thing, repeatedly spouting out bs is another level.
Yesterday’s game gave me several answers regarding the quality of our squad. Only five starters walked away from the game with their reputation intact. Two players made themselves almost unplayable for future competitive games. Mata and Herrera didn’t do themselves any favors even if they did their best. Perriera isn’t ready against top quality opponents, his reputation took a serious hit yesterday. Thiago was all over him and almost eat him alive. Rashford is a talent, that’s about it, but nothing we didn’t know already. Fredge was a level above regarding technical skills and passing ability compared to his midfield teammates, as expected.
Viggo and Bailly was the only positive from yesterday’s game.
All in all. Horrible performance. Mourinho should take a hard look at himself, 28% possession is bizarre. This is United and this negative hallabaloo must end pronto. Not tomorrow or next week. Owners, CEO and the manager must take responsibility and change approach. Another game like this and it will cost the club millions on every level. Our reputation is soon on a all time low if we continue to produce WallMart quality everytime we are on live television.
We missed out on Perisic because the Glazers wouldn't pay an extra 5 million. There's no way they'd pay an extra 20 million for Jose's top target, whoever that may be.
It was a pre season game, ffs.
Smart move by Chelsea if true.
