Why are people acting like this is new information? He's going.
Pogba's contract offer
- Thread starter Mylock
- Start date
The biggest issue with Pogba is that he spends at least half the season injured these days. I have no doubt ETH could probably make use of him in some way or form but he’s become way too injury prone. No point having a player around who is missing half the time.
What’s his actually wages at the moment is it £350,000?
maybe good job he was booed at OT few week back. If he signs he is just about money
Why are people losing their shit over Di Marzio tweet? We've known for months now that we've offered Pogba a new deal on improved terms. It's Pogba himself who has thus far been reluctant to sign on the terms offered.
He could stay. He won't get his 400k anywhere else.
At least now he might shut up about Real. They won't even take him for free.
He'll go to PSG with a big signing on fee.
Wait, so no one is even matching his current wage? I doubt it, but I hope that will give him a wake up call, that basically means no one thinks he's even worth 30m as an actual fee.
290k a week would be 75.4m over 5 years, as a free transfer that wouldn't be so bad, but he's that inconsistent, injury prone and a walking circus that no one is willing to even sacrifice that.
Means that West Ham valued Zouma more than anyone would value Pogba.
He's finished at the top level regardless, he'd be better off accepting 180k at Juve.

Because it implies the offer is still on the table, and reminds us how deranged our board is when it comes to valuing players.
Which club would realistically be stupid enough to match those wages? PSG possibly the only option. All other options would require him reducing his wages significantly I would guess because he hasn't exactly set the world alight during his tenure here.
Maybe ten Hag has suggested he'd be very willing to work with Pogba, hence why it's kept on the table?
The thought of him here until he is 34 is utterly depressing. Please get rid.
If that were true then ETH is going to fail here.
Completely agree, but I'm assuming that he and his team thought he'd have loads of clubs knocking down his door for 400k+ a week, but he can't even get them to offer him 200k a week plus a decent signing on bonus (say 20m for a free transfer) - which would work out at roughly his current wage.
He's probably been offered 200-250k a week all in, which even then its too much, but hey, he's free so he may get that much (which is still a pay cut).
At the end of the day, his main asset is the fact he's a free transfer, and that should hit him like a train.
Brilliant news if true. Our only good midfielder might stay.
No wonder fans are unhappy about it

Way too try-hard.Brilliant news if true. Our only good midfielder might stay.

He is by far our best midfielder and the only one who can actually pass the ball
Due to current events I'd be shocked if Pogba could wipe his own bum.
Offer him £10k pw and some magic beans.
Let's see if he takes it.

I'd honestly rather have Fred on the pitch than pogba at this point.
I won't lie, if we give Pogba and Lingard new deals, any excitement I have for next season with Ten Hag arriving will go out the window.
We'll find out over the next month or so if this club has really changed. I'll go out on a limb and say it hasn't.

I’m sticking to my guess that Pogba has already signed a contract somewhere else. That interaction he had with the booing fans at Old Trafford the other week doesn’t suggest he is going to be playing here next season.
He has a flashy long pass on him, but his short passing is actually pretty average compared to top midfielders. He also gets caught on the ball way too much for his passing ability to be worth it. This is all ignoring the fact that he has some of the worst defensive awareness of any supposed central midfielder.
More of a reason to think this club will remain stupid whenever it comes to stupid contracts.
Rooney situation volume 1000.
I don’t know about that. Incredibly dangerous player to have in midfield when the other team is in an attacking transition, he is ridiculously slow, so slow, yeah he can pass but he’s far too inconsistent and injury prone so the cons hugely outweigh the pros.
We need to move on from Pogba, he’s been a failure, seriously, time to move on.
He’ll be a baller again in a slow league like Serie A or staring against Albania or Finland for France or something.
What are you like in real life?
No he's on around 290k/week. Going by DiMarzio, we're offering him roughly that amount again and other teams are trying to get him for less than that. No improved wages so the talk of 400k or 500k seems to be overblown.
This will be sorted at the end of the season when ETH talks with the players at the club. If he wants Pogba to go then Pogba will go.
I keep my fingers crossed that he is leaving.
If nobody offers him £400k or whatever the offer from MUFC is, he may stay, in which case, we are screwed.
This man has rarely put in good performances for us and needs to leave asap. I'd push him out today if I could.
Lingard is definitely going.
If he is forced to stay, I wouldn't put it past him to go on strike.
But like you said, I don't believe the club has changed. I think we will continue to hang onto deadwood players like Jones, Pogba and Lingard and beg them to stay.
Being a good individual doesn’t equate to being a good fit for the team
Except when he is on the pitch in a United shirt
If Ten Hag is as good as people say he is surely it's on him to fix that
290k I read somewhere and if you google it it say 15.08 mill which matches 290k
If he's as good as people say he'll get rid of crocks like Pogba, rather than damage his chances wasting money and a squad number on someone who's career and reputation as a top player ended 4 or 5 years ago.
If you trust Ten Hag then you should trust his signings and the players he keep.
The meltdown would be something else
Trust is something you have to earn as a manager.
If he stays hopefully Ten Hag can solve the pogblem. He's still our most technical player in midfield and the best when interested.
If we become a system team and give him mainly creative and offensive duties he might recover his interest and hunger for winning.
I wouldn't put this season as a parameter as everything has been crap and everyone is unhappy and unmotivated. Only Ronaldo keeping his head up but that's because his mentality is out of the norm.

Not really. Pogba has had what, 6 years and 2 different managers to give him his chance?
He allegedly wants 400k a week to stay. What’s he shown to deserve that? How do we get rid of him if the next manager also can’t get consistency out of him? It’s time to forget about him and get the balance of the team right
Well atleast give him the benefit of the doubt?
Plus I imagine we would be stupid enough to offer him a long term deal.
Liverpool don't want to do this for Salah, a far better player, out of worried they will be left with a high earner who is past his peak.
