Manchester United sold Pogba and Manchester United are going to buy him back. The records will show that as will the company accounts.

Just because a different management team sold him to the one that bought him back doesn't make it 'two different entities' as you put it.
In theory it quite clearly does. Gill/SAF is not Woodward/Mourinho and they do not operate in the same manner either. Looking past this just to argue over one word is completely missing the point.

Manchester United Megastore staff members are rejecting fans' requests to print Paul Pogba 's name on the back of the new Adidas shirt.

United are expected to announce the world record signing of Pogba after it is understood they agreed to sign him for a world record fee from Juventus, however the Old Traffordstore is refusing to print 'Pogba 6' shirts.

Is this true or typical MEN?

Is this to preempt massive numbers returning to change the printing if pogba is not no.6?

Mourinho: "Yes, there will be a big signing. We have 22 players and we will have 23. He is a Juventus player until officially he is not."
Evra return confirmed.

It is because you can't commercialise someones name if you don't own the image rights.
But you're not commercialising it if its a customized name print requested by a customer. If my last name happens to be Pogba and I like the #6, why are they denying me the option to print it as much as another guy who's name happens to be Greg and he likes the #9?

Apparently you can get a customised shirt if your name is indeed Pogba but you have to show your ID for it

I've never seen any of these 'refusing to print x name' stories hold up anywhere.

In my experience, shop staff will print any shite you want as long as you pay the money. My brother, for instance, is not Mandingo, but i bought him a shirt that said he was once.

It's pretty much confirmed then. We're signing Paul fecking Pogba. My only worry is who will partner him, nobody aside from a 35 year old Carrick is standing out. I personally think we should cut Herrera loose and bring in someone else.
Perhaps his compatriot will come good under Jose.

I'd be okay with that if they did that with EVERY customizable name request. Something tells me that's not the case though.
Yeah. I got Best 7 for my little one, though I was told before hand that this name is off bounds for copyright issues.

As soon as I was in the megatore they printed it, no questions asked.

Ah, the homegrown discussion again. It was two beatuful pages without it.

I agree that Jose basicly confirmed that Pogba will come with this presser. My stepson is over the moon and walks around dabbing.
So i had to trow him out.

Not related to Pogba but who are the other two "colleagues" that JM was talking about that were talking about United?
Wenger and Klopp commenting on the Pogba transfer. Frenchman said it's insane and german said it's insane+the day he would buy someone as expensive is the day he quits he game or whatever.

Not sure about the second, but Wenger did comment about Pogba and the fee and said it was insane or something of the sort.

Edit: Aah yes, as @Kevin pointed out, Klopp was the other... Hilarious statement by him.

Cheers for the answers. Sounds like bitterness from them two. Both can't afford to if they wanted to. Pool couldn't attrack 100mil players.

Wenger was quite diplomatic, he said something along the line of 'it's insane unless you can afford it, it's huge compared to the ordinary'

If we plan to use him next to Pogba in a defensive role, we're screwed.

Depending on form and opposition, Herrera/Schneiderlin/Carrick/Blind/TFM is a fantastic pool to choose from for only 1 position.
I think that there are games where Mourinho may choose to use both, probably in a three alongside Carrick against the likes of West Ham
