Hardly a good move by Fergie since we are 100m poorer as a result of it.I'm all aboard the good ship Pogba, but his agent has sort of proved why Ferguson got rid of him and wouldnt play his bullshit game to be honest.

Unlike most of our signings who do just that before an official announcement?No one knows for sure, allegedly he was due back for training with Juve on the 7th, after such a long holiday us mere mortals would probably want to get back on the 5th, turn the heating on in the house, wash pants / socks and getting ready for work... Not sure footballers need to think like that.
IF he is due to Manchester on Saturday, I imagine we would announce something fairly soon - he wouldn't just turn up in Manchester.
Well worth it to keep him away from Moyes and VangalHardly a good move by Fergie since we are 100m poorer as a result of it.
Ooh. Playing the long game, the cunning old fox.Well worth it to keep him away from Moyes and Vangal
Thanks.Hope you're enjoying your hols mate.
Both!Sometimes i wonder if the muppets would rather reach 1000 pages than for United to sign Pogba.
Or Pogba and JonesCould you imagine a post match interview with Pogba and Zlatan?
Well of course! I just find all the posts about reaching 1000 pages instead of fantasizing about Pogba back at United to be a bit weird.Both!
We can dream can't we?
Kind of hoping both happen at the same time, tbh. 1000 pages and we officially get our guy.Sometimes i wonder if the muppets would rather reach 1000 pages than for United to sign Pogba.
"We knew we'd have to make sure we remained tough to beat against Hull, especially on their own turf. To concede a goal so late on is gutting but there are plenty of positives in this defeat..."Could you imagine a post match interview with Pogba and Zlatan?
A midfield of Jones-Pogba with Rooney at 10.Or Pogba and Jones
It is not so easy, we were in the red zone and the law of murphy is to blame."We knew we'd have to make sure we remained tough to beat against Hull, especially on their own turf. To concede a goal so late on is gutting but there are plenty of positives in this defeat..."
I just don't think you're fully buying into this.Well of course! I just find all the posts about reaching 1000 pages instead of fantasizing about Pogba back at United to be a bit weird.
Wasn't he voted the best English sports journo of 2015 or something? MEN were also very good on us last summer, where Luckhurst is by far the most ITK in terms of United from there. I can't really say about their sources since LVG left, but I'd bet that he knows a hell of a lot more than any ITK on here.Luckhurst knows absolutely nothing.
I'd rather believe any of the muppet ITK's on here.
One of many terrible moves by fergie 2009-13, just like summer 2009Hardly a good move by Fergie since we are 100m poorer as a result of it.
No chance in terms of United imo and I'd say he's biased towards City. He was one of the main culprits writing about how United got rejected when Laporte signed a new deal (clearly gets briefed from City).Rob Dawson I think.
As in him signing? Think i've been aboard that train for a week or so.I just don't think you're fully buying into this.
What is Getty?Now the Luckhurst tweet about Getty releasing Pogba pictures. Why don't they just announce the bloody deal already?
Exactly how I feel about it too.Actually we should be glad that Fergie got rid of Pogba when he did. Controversial you say, well consider this:
- We went to shit shortly after
- We would in no way be able to get £100m for Pogba
- Raiola and Pogba would have engineered a move and transfer request during our barren years under Moyes and LvG
- Madrid would have pinched him from us for a measly £50m
- Pogba would never again have played for MUFC. And having him during the two baboons spell would just be a waste
So in conclusion, even though it was bitter to loose him for a pittance, we would have lost him a few years down the road anyways and never have the chance to have him play for us again.

Was he not going to be in Manchester last week. Or was it the week before?SSN says he's in Manchester Saturday.
You pay for every 'getty' image you want to use, right?Now the Luckhurst tweet about Getty releasing Pogba pictures. Why don't they just announce the bloody deal already?
An image bank. Or more accurately, THE image bank - they basically own the vast majority of stock and reportage photos out there.What is Getty?
Yep - transfers really were quite poor after the summer (2008?) when we bought Nani, Ando, Hargreaves, and rented Tevez. The old school stubbornness of not wanting to deal with modern agents wound up costing us in terms of success.One of many terrible moves by fergie 2009-13, just like summer 2009
Why would getty be in the know?Getty Images. Stock photo site.
As Raiola said on Twitter: It's just a race between Italian and English media about who is going to break the news first. Probably the first and only true thing he's said. Journos have clearly been briefed somehow, but apparently not about when the deal is being announced.Was he not going to be in Manchester last week. Or was it the week before?
I'm sure I read that he was going to be announced today.
In fact come to think of it, I'm sure I read that it would be announced in 48 hours.
I do find it strange that journalists make their own timetable and people believe it.
It'll be announced when the clubs/player are ready.
I think the deal is agreed, but beyond that, no journalist knows what's going on. The bolded part is 100% evident.
I don't think they know. Samuel Luckhurst has just said that they have released dozens of old photos from Pogba's time at United. That could be a coincidence, but the timing would be strange. But don't shoot the messenger. I'm just stating what Luckhurst said.Why would getty be in the know?
They wouldn't, they're making hay from the current media frenzy.Why would getty be in the know?
even though those buys came in 2007, summer 2008 buying berbatov really was downhill from there and we could not even keep our best player. No question fergie messed up buying a inconsistent forward who was best staying at spurs which was at his level. Fergie just never seemed to even improve positions taken up by average players, anderson, valencia, young, cleverley, welbeck, berbatov, the list goes on with players not up to the task. While sanchez, modric, suarez, robben, WS, toure, even pogba who was ours manages to leave us, just the same when losing ronaldo, which sums the club up, the rest all went to our rivals, and here we areYep - transfers really were quite poor after the summer (2008?) when we bought Nani, Ando, Hargreaves, and rented Tevez.
