Every penny we spent on Pogba was a penny well spent. Going to be great seeing a couple of beasts like him and Lukaku terrorising opponents.
Wow, his running and power especially with the ball at his feet is simply immense.
I'm not sure on the translation but on the actual IG page Pogba wrote see you tomorrow in training.
We definitely need a donkey to carry our goal scoring burden...Riiight, so, let's get back to him being a donkey........
So, Rooney is actually leaving?
OK so who is next ?
Off topic but look at this
@UllalIBT: Ivan Perisic likes Pual Pogba's Instagram post about Romelu Lukaku. Can Agent Paul help #MUFC complete Perisic's signing?

We only bought Lukaku so we could offload Rooney.

Reports from reliable Everton journos were that it is done. They probably don't want to announce it along with the Lukaku signing.
Yeah that vid highlights how much of a counter attacking option he was for Everton last season. Did well when the ball was played over the top and as a hook to hold it up and lay off for runners.
What we supposed to do now? We don't even have an airplane to follow.
Hahahaha!
You are so right. Thumbs up to him for a job well done.
We shouldn't miss Rooney's role here too. His leaving has done two incredible things for the club: creating a space for a more effective attacker and giving us one of the league's best strikers.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that enjoyed that he added that in there.#AgentP
Fake Perisic account. His tag is 44 at the end
There definitely were some draws where we weren't even creating chances, but they were significantly outnumbered by the draws where we completely dominated and created plenty of chances and just couldn't finish them off.
Another two seasons of paying Rooney's wages would have probably cost us the same as Lukaku's transfer fee, great business!
While its true our finishing and goal threat was poor last season, its important to realize that Zlatan was a big reason why we were able to create chances. What he lacked in finishing he made up for in linkup play and now it'll be the other way around with Lukaku. If we make chances he'll take them, but we need to find some creativity to make up from what we lost from Zlatan...
Ya it's bullshit isn't it? I didn't hear one bad thing about Lukaku to Chelsea for 100m all summer but once we got involved for 25m less the trolls and doubters came out in force!I'm happy we got him but I gotta laugh at the few naysayers who were against the move but once Chelsea involved he became the answer!

Welcome to the Manchester United, Stormzy!
My bad.
While Ibra was playing, we created heaps of chances, against most of the minnows.
I do agree that once he got injured, our attack went to pot, but even after Ibra got injured, we still created some chances - not many, but enough to win games.
By this stage though, our full focus was the Europa League and we stopped scoring points in the league.
The problem was that the only player who could score goals was Ibra. The rest of our attackers were goal shy and on a level more akin to a club battling relegation.
I made a post earlier this week, where I showed that our top attacker (excluding Ibra) was ranked 74 in the goal scoring charts!
I still believe that if Jose wants to compete for the league, he will need at least 1 other attacker, because our current attackers cannot be trusted to score goals.
If we rely on the likes of Martial, Mata, Miki, Lingard, etc, then Jose will be falling into the same trap that LVG fell into, when he relied completely on Rooney, in his last season and Martial (partially), bailed him out (we won the FA Cup, but failed in other all other competitions, resulting in LVG being sacked).
Lukaku is a good step forward (a direct replacement for Ibra), but we need another attacker in his prime, who knows how and wants to score goals. I actually think that Hernandez (on the cheap), would be a great buy. A fox in the box who doesn't create much, but has a desire to actually score goals.
...and lets not forget gents, while some of you may get excited by watching a dribble, the aim of the game is to score goals.
Great news
How many goals do you think we will need to top Chelsea, Spurs, Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal because that is who we have to overtake? We need a lot more goals because those teams will improve as well. He has dealt with teams who let Everton play so it will be interesting to see how he copes with packed defences. Nobody cared about Everton. Everyone wants to stop United.
What I did realise about him was the quality of his finishes. I know he scores goals but sometimes with some forwards you get a sense that they just kick and hope. He's not a complete forward but DDG isn't the complete goal keeper either. What he is is a proven Prem goal scorer and there is no lottery about can he do it in this league, the country, the climate, the league and not being in London. Also helps that his best friend plays here too......absolute result.
It's in code.
Lukaku: What's up?
Pogba: I'm good
Lukaku: Training Tomorrow.
Pogba: What?
Lukaku: Training Tomorrow.
Pogba: What did you say?
Lukaku: Training... Tomorrow.
Pogba starts dancing.
This is spot on. But I will be surprised if our boys don't step up their games next season. For many of them, it is a case of 'class is permanent while form is temporary'. I see Mikhi, Mata, Rashford, Pogba and Martial stepping up.
Schweeeet! Fantastic news!
Is he reliable though?This was posted on Face book.

It's not about the number of goals alone though, a 1 goal in a 1-0 win still earns 3 pts.
Mathematically speaking 6 goals on each of our draw last season we'd become champion
Get in! Really excited with signing Lukaku he'll fill in the void left by Zlatan in terms of scoring goals. Now we need someone to score some goals from the wing ...
Gary Neville on Lukaku
‘Personally I’ve never been his biggest fan.’
Be interesting to see if his view changes once he’s got a Red shirt on.

What Pogba is going to train at Chelsea ?Haha
His social media is about to blow up.
Pogba was on about 4m followers when the runours started last summer. He has 16.2 now! Gaining a million followers every month from last year.
Lukaku has 487k, it will be a million before season starts.
