Thank God for us as he just arrived.Rather Herrera, he genuinely wants to be here.

Two complete different situations, though.Rather Herrera, he genuinely wants to be here.
Exactly, what the hell does this line mean:He didn't really, that year.
And that's such a weird, almost incomprehensible Evra interview.
Even still, I think LVG would've played him over Rafael in midfield FFSI think ultimately the reason he didn't get the chances was a bit of stubbornness from Fergie. That season Pogba slacked off a considerable amount in the under-21s, despite clearly having the talent to tear that league apart, and Fergie was never the type to reward for that kind of attitude. Obviously in highsight it has cost us considerably, but I understand why it was done at the time and I think most people on the caf would have done the same.
To see how an elite youth player should be behaving look at Januzaj, we've signed some real quality in attacking positions for the first team but he's responded to that by scoring 4 goals in 2 games this month for the under-21s. Whilst Pogba would have been great, I'd rather have someone who is willing to fight for a place by proving themselves at a lower level than someone who thinks they're owed a chance regardless of how they perform in the reserves.
"Things were shit last season, but Moyes is a decent lad fair play, even with Giggs we still sucked."Exactly, what the hell does this line mean:
“I have suffered a lot for David Moyes, a great person, but even with Ryan Giggs (as caretaker at the end of last season) things were different.”
I think he probably would have stuck a youth player in, but from what we know about Van Gaal I think he'd have left Pogba where he was and picked someone who was actually applying themselves.Even still, I think LVG would've played him over Rafael in midfield FFS
but Caf certainly doesI'm sure Sir Alex spent nights awake, weeping to himself over this.
I don't know if I would say Ravel looked more ready based on the small amount of game time. He didn't really stand out with his first team performances over Pogba.Pogba didn't at all look ready for the first team and Ravel looked miles ahead of him in terms of being ready when both of them were getting a small amount of game time. I see everyone's been sold on his sob story about Rafael and Park but I don't buy it, it was widely reported he wanted a better wage, Juve offered him one before we did and voila he now plays for Juve, I'm not buying into his story, he was 19 and definitely not ready for the first team as a regular, despite some trying to claim he was and others seemed to think his few appearances he was actually good in when he was dreadful.
I disagree, I might be confusing his hunger for ability but to me Ravel looked the more hungry and looked more eager to impress, neither of them looked brilliant when they played but both had their moments.I don't know if I would say Ravel looked more ready based on the small amount of game time. He didn't really stand out with his first team performances over Pogba.
Classic case of midfield deprivation. That's what it does to a fanbase.but Caf certainly does
He was ready. Hit the ground running at Juventus so what basis do you have that he wasn't?Pogba didn't at all look ready for the first team and Ravel looked miles ahead of him in terms of being ready when both of them were getting a small amount of game time. I see everyone's been sold on his sob story about Rafael and Park but I don't buy it, it was widely reported he wanted a better wage, Juve offered him one before we did and voila he now plays for Juve, I'm not buying into his story, he was 19 and definitely not ready for the first team as a regular, despite some trying to claim he was and others seemed to think his few appearances he was actually good in when he was less than impressive.
Well, slightly surprised at that I must say"Things were shit last season, but Moyes is a decent lad fair play, even with Giggs we still sucked."
I'd imagine.
The reason is quite obvious isn't it? And he has proved beyond doubt that it was a right career move for him too.What was his reason for leaving again?
Sorry for asking, genuine question. He said it wasn't the money and if Ferguson rated him so highly obviously he was going to be an important part of the club's future, I'm not sure why he would want to leave?
Its matter of lack of faith in a player with real talent I guess.Pogba didn't at all look ready for the first team and Ravel looked miles ahead of him in terms of being ready when both of them were getting a small amount of game time. I see everyone's been sold on his sob story about Rafael and Park but I don't buy it, it was widely reported he wanted a better wage, Juve offered him one before we did and voila he now plays for Juve, I'm not buying into his story, he was 19 and definitely not ready for the first team as a regular, despite some trying to claim he was and others seemed to think his few appearances he was actually good in when he was less than impressive.
Good, now we can stop discussion him for a few years.Just signed new contract until 2019
He would have if pogba was a strike/defender!I'm sure Sir Alex spent nights awake, weeping to himself over this.
I'd pay it.Even if we could sign him today for €70 million I'd be against it, just for the simple fact is he was ours and would've cost nothing... I can't look at him play without getting furious
Fixed. You hardly actually think that him signing a new contract means he will stay at Juve for the next seasons? Suarez signed a new deal at Liverpool earlier this year and he is no longer at the club. This was just done so Juve get a fair price for him (he would have only 12 months left on his deal come the summer). I still expect him to leave next summer just as I expected him to sign a contract renewal. I was hoping Juve (being the scavengers they are in the transfer market) would get a taste of their own medicine and he would leave on a much reduced fee but now I expect them to get £40 million plus easily. Very naive of anyone to think that by signing this contract he has actually committed his long term future to the club.Good, now we can stop discussion him for a few months.
Why's that?Glad he's signed a new contract. Don't want him here regardless of his ability.
maybe his price tag... or maybe he is a racist. Can't think of any other reason why you wouldn't want him back.Why's that?

Personally, i think would be great. He is one of the best, or maybe the best, young centre midfielders around. You want those type of players if the chance arises.
Even Fergie would be on board for this one.
Now, if €70 million are needed to get him, i much rather we sign Vidal. We need a player like him way more than Pogba, plus might be cheaper.
If we can't get him or he is not 100% fit by january, then Strootman is also a better option to Pogba right now. He brings leadership and steel, plus he is fecking good. He has to be at his 100% as well.
Pogba should stay in Juve for 2 or 3 years, then come back to papa. for those €70 or €80 millions, if he is worth it by then.
I think some fans are still bitter that he left the club. He was right to do so and this has been proven by what's happened since. SAF dropped a bollock with Pogba and its him that deserves the stick for this one. Park and Rafael in midfield over Pogba?maybe his price tag... or maybe he is a racist. Can't think of any other reason why you wouldn't want him back.

Well, that escalated quickly
How on earth do you stretch your argument to saying to not want him back is racist. Bloody hell...some people. That is a personal insult and certainly borderline banning in my point of view. You don't even know me for feck's sake.maybe his price tag... or maybe he is a racist. Can't think of any other reason why you wouldn't want him back.

I doubt it.I'm sure Sir Alex spent nights awake, weeping to himself over this.
I think he'll end up at City personally.The contract just sets the price for Real Madrid next summer.
