How much do you think Pogba is worth then?
As a player? It's difficult. He's been extremely underwhelming for 3 seasons now, but he's not old yet and he can show good consistency for a couple months before tailing down. Tough one, maybe 60-70. And that's under the hope that he'd be better with more talent around him. There's a reason not a single bid of 100m has been made for him during his time with us, despite his best efforts at SOS calls to other clubs.

Ed's overvaluing of our deadwood again. This is the reason why we ended up paying him god know how much wages all last season for about six games. Will be the same with Lukaku if we’re not careful. With the wages they’re on, we pretty much have to let them go on a free.

Has he even played 10 games over the last 2 seasons? Also we only paid about that price for him to begin with, I don't know why we are being so stubborn over this one.
It's a strange one. We just continue to price him out every summer and it's not really fair on Darmian. He could've easily have been shipped out last summer.

Why would they want to? They'd only sell those surplus to requirements. They won't give £100m cash because Pogba isn't worth that. Only way he goes for that much is if a club wants to better their brand. As a standalone player he's not worth that, it's only our own fanbase in their lost world who think he is.
Or maybe it's just you and few others who think that and there are many clubs that rate him very highly and spend big money to sign him.

Just because you hate him and blinded by it to see his worth doesn't mean whole footballing world can't see that.

Even fecking Maguire costs more than that.

Because United have continuously said he is not for sale publicly.

You ain't going to bid if the selling club doesn't want to entertain offers.

Inter are the biggest tightarses, demand extortionate fees for their own players but will lowball other clubs for theirs. feck selling to them.

Agreed, he's been a great pro here and just wants to get on with his career, in truth I thought he played well enough when used last season to warrant a few more chances in the mix over the players we kept using.

Pogba is easily worth £100m and your kidding yourself if you think otherwise

So let go of one of our players who is good enough and replace with one who isn't... How does that strengthen us?

I would rather keep Pogba and tell RM to suck a fat one,
I never said that. I'm saying that James is clearly good enough for our mediocre team and the majority of our players are not for the team who owns him and the team he is currently with on loan.

How much have you watched of James over past 2 years? Honestly, you’d be in for a shock. He’s not what we need and he certainly wouldn’t work in a side that is trying to play transition/counter attack based football.
Not a hell of lot maybe 10 or so times. That is not my point, my point is we have some terrible players and James is a lot better than them so if they can get in our side he is surely good enough to do the same.

James isn't better. He's another sluggish lazy turd like Mata and Ozil. We don't need that in our midfield. We need high intensity mobile player.

I don't hate Pogba. It's a very strong word. I just don't think he's as good as fans on this forum value him to be. If clubs wanted to spend big for him there would have been a bidding war for him back at Juventus. Real themselves pulled out when it got to stupid prices. No club is putting money where their mouths are now either, despite Pogba's best efforts to generate interest since the start of this season. There's a reason why Real would spend 100m on Hazard with one year on his contract, and reportedly offer cash plus player deals for Pogba instead. They'd rather spend their £100m on actual £100m output on the pitch.

Doesn't stop clubs showing genuine interest and making bids - look at Suarez, Coutinho, Ronaldo, etc.

As a brand sure. My post refers to him as a standalone player.

Its because Hazard is easy deal to complete with only 1 year left on contract. You won't get Pogba for 100-110 million. It's not really hard to understand that.

There won't be any bidding war when they can't strike a deal with player. We won that race and after that it doesn't matter for other clubs as player rejected them.

Hate is a strong word and you really hate Pogba for strange reasons.

I actually really feel for Darmian. He seems like a decent guy who wants to go home and play football but United are overvaluing him so much that it isn't happening.
Italian clubs are being tight (as usual) and not paying up what the asking club has demanded, you mean. €12m is nothing these days.

I think you need to read a dictionary.

As for the rest of the post - very odd, you think Pogba himself chose Real over us? :lol: We were the only club willing to pay stupid costs and stupid fees for Raoila. Please, don't be blinded by this blind United love that you can't see that. He wanted Real from the outset and he wants it now. It's so glazingly obvious, reminds me of the time fans here convinced themselves that Di Maria really wanted to go to us from the beginning.

Not sure where to start :lol:

Madrid wanted him but they didn't were ready to pay the huge wages. We did. That's what you call winning the race.

Meh I'm done. Not arsed, this shit is done so many times.

You’ve got to be really blinkered to honestly think Pogba is worth only 60-70m in today’s market.
There are many posters who hate Pogba and even those guys don't think he is worth only 60-70 million.

Firstly, I was talking from his performances rather than his brand value "add on". Secondly, me not rating him as highly as a player does not mean I hate him. Again, I think you are confused at what the feeling of hate actually means.
