Just withdraw whatever was offered before. Peace for us, peace for him.

Sadly i agree. We have had no direction for years. Only a change of ownership to a group that cares will change anything. It is beyond belief to see the way the club has deteriorated since Fergie left.
We are now left with a team who play like they don't want to be near a football...let alone Gegenpress. Only at United could we bring in the king of the press only to not press at all. We pressed MORE under Carrick.
Pogba is a symbol of all that is poisonous within our club.
What the feck did he do to himself on international duty to put him out for this long?
It would also insinuate that the FFF is also involved since the injury happened with France.
An hamstring tear. The current time table fits with a bad grade 2 or a regular grade 3 tear.
Thigh injury apparently, I mean who takes 4 months for a thigh injury?
Did it come of the bone?
You might well be right. And you forgot his negative attitude to the club exposed in constant angling to leave. Certainly up there with Alexis Sanchez, Djemba Djemba and Taibi. And quite probably eclipses them based in his poisonous attitude.

I have a feeling that he'll sign a new contract. It would be silly but logic is is something rare at United these days.
I think this is where our club fails, a player who’s injured often and plays rarely but also has a contract extension waiting for his sign. A good club will have a detailed report about a star player’s injury and submit it to the coaches and managers to take an informed decision about his future especially if it involves huge money. We are certainly a good club when it comes to players recovery and not ruthless (phil jones situation) but pogba must be earning 5 times what jones makes in a week so we should take every situation according to its weight.
There is a disconnect with every department in our club and change in managers doesn’t help either.
About bloody time.
Because he has no option that will give him the money.
Then why doesnt come out and say so? This has been one of the biggest problems with Pogba, his reluctance to deny or confirm anything said about him. If he was more open and forthcoming it would perhaps make his doubters less sceptical about him. I think the truth is he enjoys being "enigmatic" as it all goes toward his "brand" image.
That's my feeling too. We will be idiots and offer him a 350k contract at least and he will extend.
Oh!! The horror!!
This won't be a surprise. We'll offer a stupid contract and if he couldn't sign for another club, he would willingly take it and extend.
Lukaku isn't a guy who is very sensible tbh, look at his recent interview, the man thinks he is blameless. Mourinho has a long track record of falling out with many players and dressing rooms.
I'm not saying Pogba is a certified angel, just that there are more people who appreciate him and have said good things about him in dressing rooms than the opposite.
0 Prem League titles then... It's what he does for us that is the most important, not Juventus.
But yeah, I pray this saga will come to an end this year. Sick of it.
I'm not arguing that he hadn't failed to meet even the most conservative expectations. He absolutely had, we shouldn't prolong his contract and he'll end up as one of our worst transfers ever (although not quite as disastrous as the absolute worst examples, somewhere alongside Veron). I'm simply highlighting a poorly constructed argument where a player with 5,5 seasons in England gets compared to a player with 17 Premier League seasons under his belt because... god knows why. And that arguments falls apart when you include the rest of Pogba's club career even though it's still far from over. Criticise constructively.
It's not really a comparison or an argument between the two players. It's just a bit of banter. We laugh at Slippy G because of his zero league titles with Liverpool, i'm just saying that Pogba is equally prime for the pisstake.
What's more, we're (allegedly) paying him 500K a week for that pleasure of winning nothing with us!
And the article states Lukaku feels that Martial and Pogba can’t pass him the ball.
So do you have any quotes where Lukaku says Martial and Pogba were part of a clique? Because evidence suggests Pogba welcomes everyone to the club, helps them find houses and is loved by the staff in Carrington, also is very good with his time to the foundation.
So being as I don’t just believe shite like every other fan on this thread….I’d appreciate something substantial and not baseless shite posted as fact.
His won he World Cup you pleb. Let’s banter Roy Keane.
If it has we would still leave the contract offer in the table.
Retaining Pogba was one of the biggest mistakes Ole made.
Like that means anything for Man United...jesus.
Wasn’t this supposed to be a groin injury? He’s been out for 2 months already. Another month until he’s fit to train? I smell bullshit from him and raiola. Contract offer should be taken off the table.
Who in their right mind offers him 300k a week with that injury record, paying a huge bonus to his greedy agent as well.

His time here has been like a cross between Veron and Phil Jones. Both him and the club need a fresh start and if we lose him on a free then so be it. Move on.
So how's that Dubai going on then?
Great. Decided to stay another 6 weeks.
I thought he'd been told to return? Been back a few weeks hasn't he?
Ralf not having any of this recovering on the beach malarkey.
Touché
I don't know you will have to ask different physicians. But it's fair to remember that one of the reasons behind those figures are the fact that the club misdiagnosed an injury, then the player and club decided to not pick the surgical option and almost 5 months later Pogba was finally getting the surgery, Pogba barely played during those 5 months. That happened in Manchester.
But anyway the point is that Football clubs generally don't have staffs specifically focused on long term injuries, it's the same staff that takes care of the day to day niggles and they focus their time on that. Injured players are on a different schedule and it's not uncommon that they are basically isolated from the rest of the group while not actually having the best care available. Also it wasn't a point specifically about Pogba but about injured players in general.
Funny how the best facilities always seem to be where the sun is.
It can happen if the injury is a recurring one. Many players all over the Europe are injury prone like that. We're just too focused on Pogba for all kinda different reasons
Isnt that part of the recovery with certain injuries?
A sort of vitamin D to aid recovery?
It's not a coincidence. It's linked to the fact that good weather is better for tourism and that these places specializes in medical and sports tourism. It would be funny if they decided to build their faciliies in Vladivostok.
Could be and it’s hard to be too sore on him as we don’t fully know, but in comparison to Kevin De Bruyne who seems to pick up the same kinds of injuries but is raring to go as soon as possible.
Wasn't his injury misdiagnosed by the club?
I'm sure he went against the club to get surgery last season, remember Ole being not happy with Pogbas decision.
Warm weather is better but in this case it's simply due to the fact that places like Dubai, Doha, Florida or Arizona have a concentration of other tourism facilities, it's very easy to find high level amenities, you don't have to build them specifically for your own complex.
Doesn't look like the Vit D has worked this time.
Are you 100% sure its not just a case of Pogba liking a holiday in Dubai?
I mean if its a hamstring tear I'm sure the staff at United know how to rehab that. It's a fairly standard injury. Or if not I'm sure there are specialists closer than 4000 miles away.
