It's quite clearly 99% done.

The finer details take time.

See: Ibrahimovic. It was a good while after it was quite clearly ON that it was announced.

I honestly can't understand how anyone doubts this will be done at this stage.
 
This has been done for awhile imo.
My bet is the announcement will be either Tuesday or Wednesday.
 
Not everyone has the ba**s to do that. Especially with a high profile agent
The point is that he's obviously acting on behalf of his player. Even if Pogba ALSO has a desire to join Madrid, he wouldn't just join United because his agent is pushing it. There's no proof he wants to join Madrid, just the fecking bs coming out of the spanish media because of their bitterness.

Of course I agree to that. The reply was only the firing agent part.

With Zlatan, we didn't have to negotiate with any club, we convince him to join us and wait for his contract with PSG to run out. You can't compare Zlatan transfer to Pogba at all.
 
The has had so much hype its going to be challenging for him to live up to it.

I doubt that, he's coming to a league and city he's already experience before, he's not a striker so, they can't count goals for him. Most important thing if for the team to keep winning.
 
I don't like this transfer if he wants to move to Madrid and not us. I think we're paying waaaay too much money for someone who doesn't even want to be here and his dream move is Madrid. If he does succeed here he will feck off to Madrid for a larger fee than we payed him, but I'm scared that he may flop here and that this transfer will be a failure, and again if he doesn't he'll spend around 2-3 years here and then he'll move to Madrid.

So people who say that this is a good transfer because he is young and will stay here I think are wrong. If the reports are true and Raiola is pushing for a United move he clearly wants Pogba to end up in Madrid for a huge fee in the end and I can see it happening. Besides I feel like Pogba is made for Madrid and would rather like to go there and have a really nice weather than stay in Manchester.

Those reports are nonsensical.

Raiola can't force Pogba to move to United.

He wants to return too.

You are right. Raiola can't force Pogba to move to United but he can make him go to United by saying something, I can't say control him, but control Pogba without him not even knowing it and Pogba thinking it's his decision to come back when Raiola lead him to move back here. (This may sound stupid but it's the best I could've phrased myself)

You don't know if he wants to return or not just like I don't know if those reports are true or not.

Is Raoila a Sith lord?

You've just assumed the worst. Don't believe everything you read online.
 
Getting really tired of people panicking about Madrid in this thread.

All the quotes doing the rounds about him apparently preferring Madird over United come from media outlets like Marca and are Perez's mouthpiece. Remember, this is a newspaper that once photoshopped a whole crowd in red football shirts to white ones, just to save face in a friendly.

If Pogba really wanted to go to Madrid then he would do. Simple as that.

Depends on 2 things

1. If Madrid can put together a package that would satisfy Juventus
2. If the Madrid president wants to add a new shiny toy

Madrid aren't willing to spend the kind of money United are for Pogba, they're already overstocked in his position. Plus, after snatching Morata back I'm sure Juventus are reluctant to give them a friendly price.

Perez and Zidane want Pogba, that's probably true. If the player really wanted that move he could just say no to United and wait until the Madrid move materialises. It's not like he's without a club and needs the move.

If a player wants to move to one club - and absolutely not to another club - sure, then the agent probably can't sway him. But if an agent and a player has a close relationship and the player doesn't have mind going to either club, do anyone seriously believe the agent can't tip the scale in the direction he wants to ? Of course he can!

In theory he could willingly work out a better deal with one club than with another club. If Raiola wanted Pogba to go to United (and I am not saying he favours any club) - he could speak to Real and get a promise of £150.000 a week - with Real saying that is max. Then he can speak to United and say Real will go to United - but if you offer £200.000 a week I can sell it to my player. Then he goes to the player saying that United want you more and they are willing to offer much more money. Why would the player even doubt that ?

Having said that - if Pogba REALLY wants Real and not United - it probably wouldn't mind.
 
I've never seen him publically say Madrid is his dream move or he wants to go there so I don't see the problem, it's just reports from the typical outlets you'd expect to say that sort of thing. De Gea of course wanted to go there and look at his performances for us, it would be stupid to reject Pogba even if he wanted to go somewhere else.

Like I said it depends if they wanted to go all out for him. Do not under estimate player power theses days. If Utd offered 100m and Real offered 80m, but the player was adamant that Real were his choice, then Juventus can either keep an unhappy player or sell for the lower fee. I am just speculating. As are all the people on here who say 'done deal' None of us know at what stage the negotiations are

Every panicked muppet in this thread need to stay calm. Pogba is done dealio. It just needs to be played out to the end. As it looks we have a third offer of 120m EUR. This will push it over the line.

Jonas Giæver @CheGiaevara
Matteo Moretto (from Sky Italia on Cadena COPE tonight): "United's latest offer for Pogba is €120m. He is definitely leaving."

Do you see what odds Real has? Same as Juve. Don't worry.

Bookmakers' odds only ever really reflect the movement of money as the public speculates. The reason people lose money is because they allow perception to stand as fact, and the general public is always less clued up than an insider. I think this deal is done too, but not because of the bookies. They had Vidal to United at a very low price as well.

I think Raiola wouldn't want the transfer fee to be lowered because he has a 20% cut in the fee. Since that is going to be shared between Raiola and Pogba, there is no way that Pogba would force his way to Madrid by making Juventus accept a lower fee.
 
I suspect that Pogba would probably have preferred to go to Madrid in an ideal world (the weather, Champions League, etc) but they've been priced out of the deal at this point unless they can offload someone like James.

However, I'm also sure that Pogba is happy to move to us, he has roots over here and family and the money will smooth things over! I also wouldn't be surprised if Raoila has sold this as a kind of "stepping stone" move - he can point to Ronaldo as an example.
 
I searched for the video and only sequel and prequel interview vids, could you point me in the direction of the actual work out vids? Thank you

Watch a documentary on youtube called I want to look like that guy. It shows what can be achieved in 6 months with dedication and no performance enhancing drugs, plus its a pretty good watch.
 
This guy was saying a few days ago that Pogba will 100% sign in the weekend. :lol:

Err, no he didn't. It's this sort of bullshit accusation which permeates and eventually becomes truth in people's heads when deciding who is reliable and who isn't.

On the 15th he said he expected it to be done within a week and a half, which is roughly about 10/11 days. That was 10 days ago. We're about on that timeline, especially if you take Sundays out of the equation as transfers are rarely announced then.

On the 22nd he said both "within a couple of days" and "within a few days", obviously he's not going to know the specific timetable, he's just outlining that it'd be done on this sort of schedule instead of being August or later.

Everything points to this being true and the deal being imminent. He is not in control of when the deal will finally be done or whether there are delays.

I don't think it's hard to sell United to a player and Pogba is not Ronaldo.. He'd happily play for Barca.. It's not his dream to play for Real.
 
He's as good as ours. Although if the cnut is just going to spend half his time on holiday I don't want him.
