Paul Pogba | Undergoing Medical | Helping out the Laundry Ladies

[MattyB1986]

What haircut and boots will he be wearing when he plays his first game? hahaha!
Serious, if Pogba is trolling us who do you guys think the other midfielder would be? and would our midfield options be enough if we don't sign another midfielder other than Pogba? something debatable instead of reading the same "nearly there guys bs"

 

[Loublaze]

I've hesrd from someone that he was rushed with a security convoy to the Reddison Blu

Isn't the Radisson Blu a bit of a hole? I'll be disappointed if we don't get the helicopter out for Poggers...

According to Alegri, Pogba will report for duty on Monday, so he will either go straight to Italy or he may go to London, to watch his team play W.Ham.

I do find it funny that he apparently landed in Manchester, but no pictures were taken because he is underground.
I mean, if you are going to make up a story, at least give it a sense of realism.
Next they will say that he is in Manchester, but he is hovering 100m in the air, so nobody can actually see or take a picture of him.

What's more believable:
Nobody has seen him in Manchester because:
1, he is in Manchester, but is underground; or
2, he is not actually in Manchester

Jose has already stated that next week MUFC will attempt to complete the signing.
It won't be tomorrow and quite possibly won't even be next week.

You obviously never heard of the secret underground airport they have in Manchester where cameras dont work.

It's a deal for 100 million pounds +. There's going to be people pouring over every letter of this contract. The agreements seem to be all in place, it's just the particulars. That's how I'm reading it anyway.

To be fair in legal terms I don't think there is much difference between validating a contract for a £100m transfer than a £20m transfer. In the end it all has to compute and all the details will have been checked by both sides with neither of them trying to hoax the other one into something silly.

Matuidi? He's still at PSG and they don't really need him. Raiola's client too so he could quickly fix this move for us.

It's like the Hilton chain.

Seriously, huge respect for those italianfootball TV guys. They are clickbaiting the shit out of this pogba saga to hype their brand. Yet are sane enough to still admit the obvious.

IFTV > Telegraph

In what way, sense or for does this contract differ from any other transfer contract? Payment term? Fee? What else? Hardly anything.

 

[red thru&thru]

These IFTV guys have confirmed hoe humble a guy Pogba is. He got in his car to go airport, saw some young fans, jumped out and signed/took pics with them. Not your average primadona.

Also, people are questioning he has poor attitude because he's on holiday and partying with celebs etc? Good on him. That's what the off season is all about. He needs a break from football. But even then, you can see he's been keeping himself fit. I wonder if these huys are questioning Zlatan's attitude, as he was away, given longer time off, than all the other players?!

 

[Redplane]

I'd absolutely love it if we have him walk out the tunnel tomorrow and sits down as a sub as if nothing s the matter. Between us in this thread and the madness on social media and websites elsewhere that would truly be the biggest "haha up yours " gesture.

This.
Where were those people "close to Pogba" over the last month of this saga? Only now do they know what Pogba's next steps will be??
Not credible.

 

[Adcuth]

Imagine being the person who clicks the button to transfer 100mil. I feel bad just paying my council tax hahahaha

It will be in installments though

But it'll still be large amounts. Juve just paid 45 mil for Higauin. But it has to be done.

 

[xplatformjedi]

You really can't make this ish up.

If Paul doesn't sign for United after all of this (yeah...I know it's 90% likely) I'm going to dislike him more than any professional sports athlete in a long time.

I'm under the impression that he's not clarifying anything because he's been told not to clarify anything.

Who would tell him not to clarify anything?
1) His agent
2) Adidas

I assume it's because it would hinder negotiations (agent), or there is a marketing push in the works (Adidas)

Plus...if he's staying at Juve, why isn't he playing with Juve tomorrow? Seriously?

 

[Maradona10]

You were never gonna sign him without me. The deal had been agreed ages ago. It misses a medical and pogba signatures.

We may have asked him not to either, if we want to get the excitement of officially unveiling him ourselves.

BECAUSE HE ISN'T DUE BACK FROM HOLIDAY UNTIL TONIGHT!

Jeez. How are people still failing to grasp this?

Sorry for being all shouty, it's just that this thread is continually going round and round in circles.

 

[IhabX7]

Allegri is unlikely to flat out lie about Pogba going to training tomorrow. He probably is keeping out some information about the negotiations but he wouldn't want to make an ass out of himself on a matter that would come to light the next day.

Pogba going to training would mean we still haven't closed the deal obviously, but judging by Mourinho's comment I reckon by next weekend we will get him.

Any one with full access can post the details, without posting the article?

 

[littlepeasoup]

I think I'd rather us not sign him, I'm not sure how any player could live up to the expectations of this monstrosity of a thread.

 

[Sassy Colin]

If the worst happened, and it all fell through

Would we be going from '48 hours' to 'Gone in 60 seconds'?

I'll get me coat...

Castles:

1. MUFC want to market Zlatan and pogba together.
2. In the negotiations, MUFC asked for 80% of Pogba's image rights
3. Internally projecting that marketing of pogba commercially could make 40m

 

[SirAF]

Shows you that he's very aware of social media and all the things being said about him. He's obviously using the speculation to his advantage, very clever of him.

Brilliant

 

[SirAF]

He's probably reading this thread when travelling and laughing at us.

To be fair, considering his age when he was here it's not that unlikely he knows about the caf. I bet the youth players Google themselves quite often. Not saying he lurks here today though

 

[Judas]

Paul, if you're reading this, please can I have a fiver.

 

[iammemphis]

Paul, if you're reading this, please can I have a fiver.

Just spent 5 minutes trying out different ways of doing "R.C" hand gestures for him to use as a celebration. Wasn't possible. Sorry Paul.

 

[Judas]

I was going to go on a search at Wembley for him, but it doesn't look like he'll be there does it. Shame.

 

[SirAF]

Some of you guys deserve hugh honours for tracking flights and going 100% muppet. I love you guys. I am happy I got to read it before it was deleted. Keep up the good work boys Pogba is ours soon

Seriously, it was deleted? Mods gotta lighten up a bit!

 

[carlosp]

Cough! Just delaying the inevitable. Cough!

WHO'S TELLING THE feckING TRUTH???

 

[Hans Moleman]

L'Équipe are awful. I believe the random Italians who actually met him/took pictures of him while in NY at the time he was meant to be in Manchester

 

[crossy1686]

Perfect time to announce this signing? Just before kick-off today or directly afterwards if we don't win.

Full world media attention.

 

[WPMUFC]

agree. I actually meant "which paper is telling the truth". This is so bad from l'equipe.

 

[freshibal]

The guys over at juventuz forum are really weird. Some of them hope he gets injured.

 

[Kill 'em all]

At this point it seems like every paper is just guessing. They're just going with what Sky Sports reported earlier in the week, Pogba due in Manchester over the weekend.

 

[Brownie85]

Yeah i'm inclined to believe them too, although their picture can't be used as absolute proof.
We don't know what time it was taken, so they could have took it 7 or 8 hours before their tweeted it saying he's just left right now.

 

[Al-T]

How many medicals is Pogba supposed to have had/need? All of it will be irrelevant the first time he trains with Phil Jones.

 

[Judas]

It's a very immature bunch. But if we didn't have the Newbies, this place would probably be just as bad.

Indeed. But I don't believe they are bullshitters. That guy who works with Di Marzio vouches for them too. Unlike all these newspapers, they at least have met Pogba and have some sort of evidence, instead of "sources". We'll see
