Would you, as a manager, pay any more for him after scouting him for the last 4 years?Feck that's pure robbery . Fecking steal for 50m
Doesnt the agent work for the player? Of course its Pogba. He could quite easily do a press brief and say the opposite if he wants to stay and sack Raiola for telling lies. The fact is hes just a coward who wont come out and say it himself. Ask to go on the transfer list. He loses money by doing that, but hes already worth a fortune.I'm not, but he isn't the one blabbing and saying he wants to leave - he's still trying his best too. If the agent hadn't said anything we would be non the wiser at the moment.
From most accounts Pogba isn't being disruptive but the agent is and that's the biggest issue.
We sell him for 50m, we save another 15m in wages, that will add up to 65m in total..Feck that's pure robbery . Fecking steal for 50m
And thank feck for that. The only reason I ever wanted us to hold on to this prima donna is because his alternatives were lingard and Andreas.Im 100% ready to let him go. Bored to him, bored to Raiola. Bruno is everything what he could have been. And even more. He has all the tools but he will never fulfill his potential. Mentality is his weakness.
I would pay money for him to do one on his current teammates. God knows they need it.Pogba gets his fat minion to do the dirty work, Bruno scalds his team mates for being shit. More Bruno's, less Pogba's. Sell him ASAP.
Are you joking?Feck that's pure robbery . Fecking steal for 50m
PSG will go for him because they are the sort of club that buys that type of player. Plus the French connection obviously. I can't see any other 'big' club going for him.Are you joking?
We'll be lucky to get anything like 50mil in todays market.
Consider the problems he brings, and the consistent form he's been in for 4 years. Your buying the name, the brand. Your not getting a very good, reliable footballer.
Clubs havent got money to waste on players who are all hype like Pogba pre-covid. We'll be lucky to get a decent fee for him.
If i'm Real, Barca, Bayern, Juve i'm staying well clear - he's not a good enough footballer to play at an elite team. He's so over rated by our fan base it's beyond a joke
To be fair, he is good enough for Juventus (Italian Champions) and France (World Champions) at the very least, so he could still be good for an elite team.Are you joking?

No Elite team is spending big on Pogba.To be fair, he is good enough for Juventus (Italian Champions) and France (World Champions) at the very least, so he could still be good for an elite team.
But yeh he is clearly not good enough for us, so 50m would be great deal for us.
Overcomplicating a simple situation. Woodward's Way.https://thisisfutbol.com/2021/01/bl...iscusses-a-potential-new-deal-for-paul-pogba/
"Remember, he has 18 months left on his current deal, however, it appears that in Ed Woodward’s normal modus operandi, where he likes to tie players down to longer contracts, even if they’re not playing regularly in the first team, in order to preserve their value.
“They’re willing to just take a little hit on their pride and make an offer to Mino Raiola to come in and discuss an extended deal for Pogba rather than risk losing a lot of the equity that they invested in the player when they bought him for a then-record fee from Juventus three and a half years ago.”
He’s said that he’ll never play for PSG. I think they’re the main rivals of his boyhood team. I mean he might change his mind of course.https://www.90min.com/in/posts/maur...pogba-top-transfer-target-at-psg-01evng1hymq6
There were several media outlets this morning stating that Pochettino wants Pogba. If this is true (and not fluff) than...
Pogba will most definitely go this summer. It would be a no brainer for him, and....
United would have rich buyer most likely willing to pay out in cash. (As opposed to Juventus who want to fob off Dybala plus cash for Pogba)
Potential win, win in my opinion.
Disagree.I think we'd be in the shit if Pogba left, whatever the prevailing opinion on the Cafe.
VDB would in no way be able to step into his shoes.
If he’s a ‘pretty average footballer’, why does he play every game for the world champions France? To sell French shirts?No Elite team is spending big on Pogba.
1. They dont have the money
2. He isnt worth it.
Pogba is all hype, his only advantage is his brand. He's a big name and will draw shirt sales - thats it. He's a pretty average footballer
I agree partly, he'd need replacing, VDB is promising, but he's not a Pogba replacement for me. Even if we're just focusing on when Pogba decides to show up, it would leave a hole in our squad, one we couldn't afford to not fill.I think we'd be in the shit if Pogba left, whatever the prevailing opinion on the Cafe.
VDB would in no way be able to step into his shoes.
I’m sorry but this is blind hate. Question his attitude & commitment by all means; but he’s the most talented footballer we have at the club, by some distance too.No Elite team is spending big on Pogba.

As is your right.Disagree.
Not remotely. Bruno or Rashford is the most talented.I’m sorry but this is blind hate. Question his attitude & commitment by all means; but he’s the most talented footballer we have at the club, by some distance too.
Wow, in the shit, from a player who plays 2-3 good games a season.I think we'd be in the shit if Pogba left, whatever the prevailing opinion on the Cafe.
VDB would in no way be able to step into his shoes.
As I mentioned in another thread, we have rarely got the best out of Pogba because he's asked to fulfill all sorts of roles which don't necessarily fulfill his skill set.I agree partly, he'd need replacing, VDB is promising, but he's not a Pogba replacement for me. Even if we're just focusing on when Pogba decides to show up, it would leave a hole in our squad, one we couldn't afford to not fill.
Agreed.I’m sorry but this is blind hate. Question his attitude & commitment by all means; but he’s the most talented footballer we have at the club, by some distance too.
Grealish would be a good replacement, tbf. VDB wouldn't be.Wow, in the shit, from a player who plays 2-3 good games a season.
We could get a replacement which hopefully is grealish because then we wouldn’t be in the shit, I mean we’d be so far from the shit, we wouldn’t smell it and there would only be a slight smell if Lingard made the bench.
Grealish fanboy x
why he hardly contributes?I think we'd be in the shit if Pogba left, whatever the prevailing opinion on the Cafe.

If you think Bruno & Rashford are more talented footballers than Pogba than I’m sorry but football isn’t for you. More effective? Sure, more talented? Not even close.Not remotely. Bruno or Rashford is the most talented.
Pogba is good but has nowhere near matched his fee.

The idea that Rashford is a more gifted footballer than Pogba is honestly one of the most laughable & quite frankly deluded things I’ve ever read on here.
I agree. It’s a shame but it’s just not worked out & his agent has been a nuisance for some time now. It’s probably best that he’s moved on. The blind delusion in regards to his ability on here is clear though.Agreed.
But, for some reason, we have struggled to get the best out of him. His agent has made life very difficult for him, which has attracted a lot of negative feelings around him.
We don't know what the deal is with Raiola, but clearly there must be some significant benefits for Pogba, and all the other top players he acts for, that they are prepared to put up with the shit show he creates from time to time.
I am a fool for suggesting Pogba is a more naturally gifted footballer than Bruno & Rashford? How exactly? He is, quite clearly."Never argue with an fool. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience." - Mark Twain.
I agree and mostly because McTominay will be his successor. People actually think Pogba leaves and VDB comes in over PES poster boy. Not a chance.I think we'd be in the shit if Pogba left, whatever the prevailing opinion on the Cafe.
VDB would in no way be able to step into his shoes.
Mctominay is a completely different player to Pogba. The difference between them in ability & attitude is light years. If you could combine Pogba’s ability with. Mctominay’s attitude we would have some player.I agree and mostly because McTominay will be his successor. People actually think Pogba leaves and VDB comes in over PES poster boy. Not a chance.
