I think that'll be the plan. Pogba out and Maddison in. It'll probably be a straight swap in terms of finances, but we desperately need to get this next batch of players right.
Wouldn’t bank on him being a star in Madrid, better players than him have failed there. If he wants to be the headline act and get the big bucks and adulation he’s gonna have to step it up hell of a lot to be accepted by those fans. Our fans are pussycats in comparison to those when it comes to standards and expectations.
It's very telling about a player's status when fans don't even care anymore about stuff like that. Considering our current predicament, Pogba has actually been criticised a lot less than ever before and it's like the media and fans can't be bothered with him.
Well this is the problem with making public statements (or your agent/family members) saying that you want to leave and letting the rumours spread...easy pickings for the media to enrage people.
Yeah there's no doubt what Pogba wants, and I also agree he doesn't care to avoid getting into these situations. That's just who he is, and he's represented by the perfect football agent with that attitude.
Went there walking fine comes back on crutches - sums everything up really
Qatar and UAE built modern training and sport medicine facilities and also hired some of the best doctors in the world. They want to be the leading countries in sports and health tourism.
Well, if he can't perform to his best on a regular basis is he really a brilliant player?
Pogba is literally driving people insane at this point.
Paper’s are saying he’s just there for a break and to see the sights during international break.
Source?
A few have said that but I’ve just seen in the Daily Mail he is actually at a sports performance centre (Transform Altitude Performance Center ).
You can do both and from memory he was there during at least one of his long term injuries. I personally don't like it, I prefer to see players with the team because they can provide something to the group. I remember Ibrahimovic(with PSG) and Schweinsteiger doing the same thing.
Well he clearly didn't did he. He had a cast on before he went.Went there walking fine comes back on crutches - sums everything up really

He was limping badly at the end of the Rochdale match and didn't take a penalty because of it, but keep spreading your lies.
Who wouldn't want to go to a warmer climate to recover if you had the money? what difference does it make whether he's sitting in the rain in Manchester or the sunshine
Yeah OK, the club are paying their best player to go on Holiday. They've put a cast on his foot just for fun
Pretty sure the cast came after as he was pictured on a bike in Dubai castless but you seem to know more about his medical state than Pogba, the medical team and the managerWell he clearly didn't did he. He had a cast on before he went.

Ok cool but which papers said he's just gone for a break? I'm genuinely asking because a lot of people just make shit up about Pogba or come to their own conclusions based on little so I was just wondering if you have a source?
He was riding the bike with the cast on..Pretty sure the cast came after as he was pictured on a bike in Dubai castless but you seem to know more about his medical state than Pogba, the medical team and the manager
Odegaard plus £70m would be a good deal. In fact if we look at marketability of Pogba in comparison to Odegaard, in fact any current Madrid player, it should be £100m plus Odegaard.Isco+€50m for Pogba and Matic, who says no?
Actually i'd be willing to go as high as £50m so you can go get longstaff
Honestly thought the cast came after as in they discovered something on a further scan.
Well if that’s what they’re getting people to do then they aren’t going to become the world’s leading country on sports and health tourism.
eh? It was a static exercise bike. He’s in Dubai for the weather not there to recover by their doctors.
That would mean our recruiters and transfer negotiators are able to squeeze the maximum return on investment out of it. Seeing how after RvP we've been completely shite at that I'm not filled with much confidence.
The problem is that I don't think anyone will pay us the amount we believe we should get for Pogba. Real Madrid never matched our asking price (and once Zidane goes they won't be interested), he's not a fit for Barsa style and no Italian/german team have that kind of liquidity. I see only PSG as a realistic destination for him.
They would have to sell to afford United asking price.
Do they even think hes worth it? For the money thats been thrown around in here at least, I doubt any team would actually think that hes worth it.
For his perfomances on the pitch, I don't think he's worth that asking price. If he gets it, it's for his potential and marketing value.
Don't forget that off the field potential of Pogba... Marketing wise. He s very useful when looking for sponsorships
