It should be pointed out over and over again that without Mourinho, none of these targets would have happened in my opinion.

Main muppet probably.
However we did get the best players we wanted in the last 2 seasons as well..
Shaw 2 years ago,
Martial last year.
Pogba this year...no difference :)

Isn't this like a massive hint? Or am I missing something ? Considering we just signed a deal with them.
Yeah surprised no one has commented more positively about this, otherwise it seems massively odd for Virgin to do that!

Not a hint like I think the Virgin media team got ITK knowledge, but more that they can see the inevitable like we can see, Pogba is signing.

At most it might drag on beyond the weekend, but either this Friday or beginning of next week he will be ours.

Tenner to the muppet who tracks down Tancredi, Jamie Jackson and Miguel Delaney and takes a huge dump in their mouths after this saga is finished (if it goes our way).

Can't believe people are getting so giddy about the car photo. Are we saying he specifically bought the red hat and shoes to send a message to all us United fans? Isn't it a lot more likely he already owned the clobber and thought that using the filter would make the photo of his fancy car look a bit cooler? And that's all there is to it. I mean, come on. This is all looking very hopeful. Why the need to clutch at straws?
Pogba is in the Instagram generation, he knows exactly what he's doing with that message-so there is every chance that it is a subliminal confirmation that he is United bound.

A 'noire' style filter isn't really needed to make those types of cars 'cooler'. Where's all the Juventus headings on his Insta/Facebook/Twitter? Where is Pogba on Juves Twitter? - you could as deep into it as you wish.

These players are iphone hounds they eat/live/breathe social media so nowadays i think there is every chance they send 'messages' this way - its just how it is.

If he posted a picture of a Pizza, does that mean he loves Italy and is staying? Probably not, but there is every chance of there being a cryptic side to his post.

There is of course every chance that as you say he wanted to make his 'fancy car look bit cooler' and all of this is yet another idiotic Internet story.

Am I alone in thinking that Pogba is incredibly overrated?
Definitely not alone. He is overrated/over-hyped, but he definitely offers something United's current midfielders don't.

Yep that sounds feasible... because he clearly has no idea about all the mega hype of United being in for him and the thousands of United fans who are likely watching his instagram page. I think it's very likely it's a deliberate hint or tease rather than him just applying a filter to make his car look good. Adding to that, pretty much half of his car is missing in the picture

Which muppet was let loose on the title?
I've no time for over-analytical muppetry but, nevertheless, "Nothing so far today" is an anagram of "Sign that on fr*day". Think on, sheeple...

Yeah and not only that but everyone else on the earth is just alternative versions of you so in effect the rest of you don't agree with you :) Hope that helps.

No, a hundred other people have said this a hundred times already and then proceed whip out their 'better midfield options' list with Kante and Carzola on it.

I'm surprised how calm everyone is.

Not sinked in yet? We're breaking the world transfer record on Paul Fecking Pogba!

We're actually getting our main Muppet transfer target for once, brushing off RM in the process. :drool:

It's crazy. Can't they just ask Sky Italia for their sources since Sky and Sky Italia are linked.
the conspiratorial side of me thinks they down-play actual information that is current for older info so they can get fools money into transfer bets.

There is no way you have the backing of a multi-national corporation and you use your "transfer updates" to tell us things we knew 12 hours ago.

Pogba transfer is on a different level altogether. This is a player that all the big clubs want to sign. It will be a big win for Woodward if can get this done.

He won't have a medical in a America he will have it in Manchester like every other player does. All this rubbish the other day about the agent cancelling the medical the agent does not book a medical the buying club do that.
He's having it in America I've heard, that's where he is now and it's the only way they can get him signed, there's no way anyone would spend €145 or whatever it is without a medical

Raiola has been postponing this transfer so that Paul can also break the caf record. Pogbas shirt number will be the number of posts this thread gets to and will be offset on a Chevy logo, next to an Aon sign at Carrington, all whilst Paul is drinking a can of Chivita fruit juice and playing blackjack at a Donaco International casino.

If all that stuff had changed since this alleged breakthrough in the negotiations then I reckon it would be a very big hint about a done dealio but a picture with a filter that makes his outfit/car look cool? Bit of a stretch IMO.

You're using wordsmiths anagram server too much.

So does that mean if the car was black, he'd be saying he will always be a United man but he'll be staying at Juventus?
What if the car was dark or seemed to be a shade similar to a blue colour, does that mean he'll always be a United man but he'll be playing at City or Chelsea?
I think you're getting carried away now.

It's actually an easy to read and pretty obvious 'textbook' standard 'football muppetry' equation:

(red baseball cap + red trainers + white supercar) = (messing with our heads + walk all over us + heading for Real Madrid).*
* Later 'football muppetry textbook' editions state that it could also mean (it's on, he's signing for Manchester United - game over)

Everyone was going on like it was a signed deal last night, y'all could end up looking like right bell ends, nothing's done until we see him holding up our shirt, when will we learn ?

So what do you want people to do? Wallow in some kind of self pity because he hasn't signed before August?

It's not the first comment I've read on here regarding this. People seem to have a problem with optimism and happiness here.
