He's the real deal, one of the best midfielders in world football, and still has room to grow.
He's been impressive on the international stage and in continental competitions. Serie A may be a second rate league nowadays, but there's absolutely no denying his talent.
Based on what?
His agent.
Christ pexbo that's some serious muppeteering.Remember the talk of him when he left us, he's not been moved around much since though. Agents of a certain manner like moving players around for maximum profit, at least until the players marketability settles (see Tevez).
He's been at Juventus for three years now, and I'm pretty sure he'll leave soon.
Dukie grew up
They tied him down to a contract in October that runs til 2019. They will be in no rush to accept £50m for a 21 year old.
Well Pogba's been with Juventus since he left us, so I don't know what makes you feel he wouldn't have still been here. If Pogba leaves Juve, it's nothing to do with his agent, in my opinion (even though he's a pain), but because he'll be wanting to test himself in a tougher league like La Liga or the EPL.
"One of the worst leagues in Europe" is a huge exaggeration.
For that price I don't particularly care for him...we can get both strootman and Gundogan for that price.....midfield sorted.
I do agree that 80m is excessive. Unsure how Gundogan has been since his return from injury, though.
His price is a reported £16m though...surely we can take a punt on him for that price?
It's a stupid exaggeration.
It's fourth in Europe according to UEFA coefficients behind Spain, England and Portugal although Portugals strong 10/11 season will be lost next year and Italy should move back ahead.
Where did you hear that? You do know he signed a new contract in October?
The stories I read said it had a €60M buyout in it, but I just googled it and Juve's President denied it, my mistake.
What's all this now? How many leagues do you think Europe has, 4?
What planet the feck are you from?!
Generally we talk about the 5 big leagues, and there is a big gap between the top 3 (PL, Liga and Bundesliga) and the rest, Pogba is rarely very good in europe.
Okay, thanks. I'm not sure what that has to do with Serie A being one of the worst leagues in Europe though, which it isn't.
Yes just ignore the fact he was very good at the world cup too.
Tbf it has declined massively though. You see so many "top" players leaving the Serie A and fail in other countries, then you have many average players going to Italy and suddenly they are superstars like Gervinho or Callejon.
I thought he was a bit underwhelming tbh, certainly shouldn't have won that YPOTY vote.
feck, for some reason I thought that was James. My bad.He wasn't underwhelming, he was actually pretty good, I thought James should have got young player though (if he was eligable)
He's a banker ability wise and his value won't go down. In 4 or 5 years transfer fees will only go north. Even if we "only" got £50m for him it would be money well spent.
