Mirror Football: Paul Pogba's brother issues blunt ultimatum to Man Utd over midfielder's future
- Thread starter #07
- Start date
I’ve only seen the headline and not the article and I presume Paul certainly has a big mouth agent and even bigger mouths brothers. Not their fault though that their baby brother Paul is ten times more famous
We need to include a silence clause for all relatives and agents in our contracts from now.
Every time somebody opens their mouth, the player loses money.

Just 4 months left of this circus. Endure it folks.
Beyond caring, and I have done for the last 18 months or so, truth be told.
This thread is likely to be another shitshow, but people should stop caring about what his brothers say in the media. It's the only way they can stay somewhat relevant so they will say whatever the media wants them to.
It's better we just focus on the season and then leave it up to Ole and the team if they want to try to convince Paul to sign a new deal or not

Nothing story if you read the actual quotes.
I read it, he said we have to sell him in the summer or he will go for free. Thanks Sherlock, we did not know that.
His quotes aren't really as bad as the headline made out. Just said that if we don't sell him this summer then he'll probably go for free when his contract expires.
Probably not the best idea to copy and paste The Mirror's truth twisting headline, it's fishing for hate.
Nothingburger from the quotes.
Who's to say that Paul is going in the Summer? He's been saying all the right things lately and seemingly wants to stay. Paul gets on with Ole and they players too and is playing very well lately too
A cynic would say he's only doing that to get a move in the summer but I'd like to be an optimist and that he simply wants to stay at United.
That cracked me up
Looks like the OP has fallen for The Mirrors oldest playbook. Twist the headline for click bait.
There is nothing in there that no United fan doesn't know.

The Twitter headline seems needlessly hyperbolized, to be fair — almost like it was purposefully designed to antagonize the United fanbase!
These are the quotes attributed to Mathias — he could have skipped the query, yes — but equally, the utterances are not that scandalous/dramatic in what was probably a candid interview. Much ado about nothing, all things considered.
Pogba’s brothers are irrelevance personified and just riding on the coat tails of their more talented sibling. Really who gives a shit what this scrub thinks of Paul’s situation at United.
It’s amazing how much a sibling is so much better at something and in this case football when all of them are from the same genes
It's almost as if it's a totally different individual, crazy right
Nothing new.
I am expecting him to leave for nothing the summer his contract expires. If Real Madrid or Juventus come knocking this coming summer the bids will be derisory anyway.

Get fecked mate!
Man gives candid and obvious answer to a question.
A blunt ultimatum?
More akin to one Sky's heated debates.

Nothing story, unreadable article due to those pictures and adds every 3 sentences. Shit journalism.
Just replace "blunt ultimatum" with "obvious truth" and it's OK.

Odegaard swap deal incoming... Just need Odegaard to pass his PL audition.
What his brother said...
And when asked about his brother he said: "He is happy. He is improving his game.
"He has a year left on his contract. I don't know (if he will stay until then). I can't help you right now.
"The only thing I can say is if United want money, they have to sell him now. That's the only thing I can say. If no, he'll go for free."
"I haven't heard anything about him renewing his contract."

What Pogba recently said;
The player himself recently said: "I am on contract, I am here, I am enjoying myself.
"Everybody knows that I have one year left, I'm going to speak with the club and see what's going on.
"For now, my objective, my goal is to win something. That's all I'm thinking about is to win."

Clickbait headline.
Pogba's very likely to be a meal ticket for certain members of the family. They need to be seen to care.

What is wrong with those quotes? He is just stating the obvious.
Secret agent ødegaard learning Arsenal's secrets so we can finally beat them
I wonder how he feels, knowing that the reason they interview him, is because they want to know about his brother.
I hope we've got an exit strategy for him sorted and know what we're going to do afterward. Then again, it is the Woody and Ed Judge jamboree where anything and nothing could happen.
It makes me quite sad knowing if we were run better, we would be winning titles.
We can attract players, managers, staff, revenue without the requirement of billionaire owners.
How the feck can the board get it so wrong when you are meant to be able to hire the best in every field possible.
I'd have guessed that this is actually the norm, with the "2 siblings are almost equally as gifted as each other at an elite level sport" being the exception.
Surprise, surprise. The age of sensationalism and fake news. It's more important to be first than accurate.
Rank incompetence, unfortunately. Our ability to pull rabbits out of the hat left with Fergie. As soon as we need a thorough and diligent approach from the people above the manager, it all falls apart.
Slow news day
The mirror is trash
I read that as meaning Paul Pogba had issues with his brother which had blunted his ultimatum to Manchester United.
Crap headline.
Crap headline.
First Pogbas agent starts shouting off about how his client wants to leave and how he should be allowed to and Pogba makes no attempt to contradict him except to say, weeks later, that he was happy now at United. Now Pogbas brother starts up and we're supposed to believe Paul Pogba is totally innocent of trying to orchestrate a move? No, if Pogba had any true feelings about United and its supporters he would have told both his agent and his brother to mind their own business. Who'll be next to say their piece, his mother?
