Hasn't he got a release clause in his contract? If so, it's definitely something we should be looking into.Except we're not signing Kante.
Oh dear lord...Di Marzio now on sky italy:
Mikitharian signed
Ibrahimovic signed

Open talks with juve for Pogba
Kante for me, is no better than the player I believe TFM can become with the right investment in him. I don't think we should irresponsibly trust youth, but I don't think Kante is a specially gifted player, and TFM has a similar engine, also a great tackler and ball winner, and just needs time.Except we're not signing Kante.
Meeting with Pogba on Monday we are willing to make a big offer.Tweet

Di Marzio doesn't always strike me as reliable, even though he's considered so on here and gets a lot of things right. I'm not sure why, just seems to throw stories around sometimes in the hope some are true.Di Marzio now on sky italy:

He's not the only one saying it though. A paper in Madrid are also. Or are they lying too?A few weeks ago Di Marzio was going on and on about Pogba to Real... it's hilarious.
I still believe that he'll stay with us.
He's one of the most credible journalists out there. When he reports we're close to signing a player that's when I get excited.Di Marzio trying again after having failed with the Pogba to Real story.
Who's next? City? Barcelona?
Hahaha easy to be a sporting journalist nowadays, just throw random names, job done!
There were a lot of stories reporting Real's interest in Pogba, pretty sure there were some talks going on. It's not like DiMarzio came out and said that Pogba was joining Real Madrid. I know its going to suck to lose Pogba eventually but there's no need to get so defensiveDi Marzio trying again after having failed with the Pogba to Real story.

Papers need to sell, they say a lot of stupid things too to be honest.He's not the only one saying it though. A paper in Madrid are also. Or are they lying too?

Good post. Please post more and share your insights about Italian journos (which ones are the most reliable etc).Papers need to sell, they say a lot of stupid things too to be honest.
Including the ones in Spain.
I'm Italian, I know him well.
I'm only saying that a few weeks ago they talked for days about Paul to Real... and now all of a sudden it's United.
I have a feeling that sometimes they're just trying to guess...
Of course you can always hope (I hope that he'll stay with us instead!)... we'll see.
We are taking our boy back.A few weeks ago Di Marzio was going on and on about Pogba to Real... it's hilarious.
I still believe that he'll stay with us.
He's off to Madrid. End of story. But Mou will make an attempt.He 10000% won't sign for us. Doesn't make sense for him to really. I definitely reckon Mou fancies him though, and that we're in for him.
Embrace the madnessI'm just feeling sick thinking how much we are willing to pay for Pogba. He is good, but not world record fee good. Hope Real Madrid or PSG step in and end this madness.
Very interesting as it was reported that Real didn't want to meet the asking price, this could be huge for us.Pogba stories in the Sun and the Telegraph. Saying basically the same thing too. Pogba is intrigued but wants to wait and see if Madrid make on offer.
Considering he'd improve us massively, who would you go for instead?I'm just feeling sick thinking how much we are willing to pay for Pogba. He is good, but not world record fee good. Hope Real Madrid or PSG step in and end this madness.
Doesn't matter. Madrid have proven breaking records if often an incredible PR exercise, think that's why woody's been desperate to break it.I'm just feeling sick thinking how much we are willing to pay for Pogba. He is good, but not world record fee good. Hope Real Madrid or PSG step in and end this madness.
Considering we get overcharged for everyone we may as well go all outI'm just feeling sick thinking how much we are willing to pay for Pogba. He is good, but not world record fee good. Hope Real Madrid or PSG step in and end this madness.
You wouldn't be getting pulled in if we're just one of several clubs being discussed.Must...not....get....pulled....in
I don't think it's reasonable to draw a comparison between Hazard for 38m euros and Pogba for 120m.We all complained when we baulked at 38m for Hazard and his agent.
Well it would be a case of stumping up the cash required to secure their services. Posters here complained when we wouldn't meet the price for Hazard, during the whole value thing before that, and Ronaldinho before that.I don't think it's reasonable to draw a comparison between Hazard for 38m euros and Pogba for 120m.
And that's ok. I'd gladly take Toni Kroos off their hands.I think we're being used to get Madrid to pony up and pay. Think he'll be in Madrid next season.
