Yeah, all of them are English and British.

The "Fear Madrid" **** headed by @ehsanul needs to be thread banned IMO. Nothing but a bunch of doom and gloom WUMs.
Once again.
Marotta only mentioned United when asked about it yesterday. If Madrid were involved we would absolutely know

Not that anyone knows. It takes us months to consider preparing a bid but I'm not sure Madrid work that way. For me, they're are in with a shout. I hate to say this but I don't think he's coming back. Those sods will find the cash from somewhere. I will still get excited by every positive bit of info but I think it has gone quiet for a reason
So we wait for other premier league clubs to buy foreign players and then if they become good we buy them? That's a ridiculous idea.
KDB plays for our neighbour rivals, Lukaku isn't the quality of player to get us back where we belong, Mahrez has had one very good season in a team built to play to his strengths (while it also looks he's staying), Hazard plays for a rich Russian owned club and wouldn't sell us Hazard in a million years.
In terms of actual English talent, they are extremely underwhelming. Those players are all foreign and if we were to sign them all of them bar Lukaku, who is okay and Mahrez would go for values close to Pogba.
I tend to agree with you,would love us to tell Raiola to get fecked,we must have other targets in sight and should pursue them with haste rather than being dicked around
I'm so glad I'm not invested in this one. Vidal crushed my muppet heart so bad I'm not even sure I'll be able to trust again. I still have a bookmark to a Chilevision stream saved just as a reminder of how bad things can get 
With that said, I think this is a done dealio.

Well the first of the two is banned for his WUM over the weekend.
I think I would be annoyed if anyone from our club was complementary about another club so i commend him for being professional. A least with DDG he kept his mouth shut throughout the process when RM came sniffing around him and so he didn't have to do any back tracking when it fell through.
Looked pretty positive when the lequipe story came out but everything else so far has been hot air. Can't see it happening now in all honesty.
Good post. I just wish it was easier to take the top prem players from rivals.
And as that deal is official they must have agreed to sell Pogba already, assuming their finances require it. Unless they really can afford it regardless, you don't bet the house on something thats not confirmed yet.
True, but I don't wanna have a player that doesn't really want to play for us, there are others in the team that are more willing to fight for the club than him.
I think Acquire me said he's not posting in here till it's done or something along those lines.
Worth mentioning that whilst people bring up Vidal and Thiago as examples where it ended badly, the Pogba situation is more like Mourinho and Ibrahimovic. All news was positive but as soon as there was silence people began to get paranoid and panic that those deals weren't happening.
Seen these quotes from Jose?
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/manchester-united-are-matter-hours-away-completing-paul-pogba-deal-1572770?
These are old I think?
About a week old I think.
If that is the case, I bet there have been times when he's been itching to put fingers to keyboard....he's even probably written stuff then cancelled
Benzema and Varane were influenced by Zidane, whereas Bale just wanted to go where his guy crush was at. Spurs didn't want to sell Modric to us. Fergie didn't seriously want Ozil. Kroos probably was put off by Moyes/LVG.
We may have inquired about all of them at some point but we're serious after Benzema and Varane, Bale not so sure.
The only actual thing holding Real back is the fact they don't seem to have enough cash to hand. A quick sale of Morata or James is the only way I can see Pogbas situation changing. Either sign for us or stay at Juve - from Jose's old quotes, don't think he'll want this to drag on much longer and may go to plan B.
Only if we move on to other targets, maybe a late move in August by Real for him as they'll surely have sold someone by then. Zidanes quotes are a declaration on "hold on for us Pogba", hopefully its too late and we wrap this up.

Which is odd, because wasn't his big "inside scoop" that it was already done? Well over a month ago, wasn't it?
If my memory isn't too bad, Varane also saw the purchase of Jones as a negative for joining United.
Well, hours can be 2... can be 8... but they can as well be 5798. He might come here when he's 35 to play his final season here and then retire
Just saw the thing about his medical being cancelled. I don't know what you lot have said about is as there has been 20 pages since last night, but i can't see this happening now, Pogba obvioulsy wants Madrid and has been stalling hoping they will come in for him.
The only bright side to this is that all you annoying "lol pathetic how some of you are scared of Madrid lol" people will have to eat some serious crow.

Interesting -- according to La Stampa (printed version) - it's done. Juve will receive 100M Euros and Raiola 15M. What needs to be agreed is how the payments will be made. Nerozzi sounds very smug about this deal, saying that Juve made the deal of the century (which is true).

Zaza has just refused Wolfsburg. Sampdoria are interested however I doubt they will pay 20m for him. That must hurt Juventus who had spent ridiculous money for Higuian,
It's been proven to be false. There was no medical arranged.
Maybe we can have a sticky post summarizing all the facts about the transfer, so that posters can have a uniform view of developments so far.
I'm not saying you can't afford him. I'm saying you won't pay that much and will try to get the fee reduced. If I were a betting man I'd say that he'll join Madrid for £75m before the window closes with either James or Isco leaving the club to compensate (probably to Juve).
Why wont they ?
They have plenty of money,more than us also.
Well whats holding it up then?. Why would Zidane of said what he did yesterday if Pogba to us really was a 'done deal' like so many keep saying?. If it really was a done deal, Zidane would of tried to save face for Madrid by saying something like "we have our own targets, Pogba is not one of them" or something like that.
Also proven to be false by what?, Twitter?
Just because someone currently plays in England is no guarantee that they are not just as likely to want to move elsewhere at some point like ADM.
The problem also with focusing on British and Pl talent is one there is very little top British players around and two any top player British or otherwise playing in the PL will most likely play for another top English side. Those types of transfers are rare these days, and hard to pull off on one wants to sell to a direct rival.
And besides in the last few years we have bought Fellaini, Mata, Shaw and Schneiderlin from other English teams.
Negotiations. Is Zidane part of our negotiations?
Still not sure how you confidently read it that way. The "today" which you've totally missed out puts a pretty different slant on it - surely a massive implication that he expects him to be at some point in the future?
Proven to be false by the doctor whose name was mentioned as the one who was meant to be doing the medical.
You've based this on feck all.
The thing holding Real back is, an actual need for the player.
But if Pogba were to go to Real, I can imagine a merry-go-round between us 3 clubs...Pogba to Madrid. Kroos to United. The money to Juve.
However, I still believe Pogba is coming to us.
