Yeah because signing players who don't really want to play for us has worked so well in the pastWould be our best summer signing by a mile.

Mate, the mods made a new thread today asking us not to do this exact thing. Fair enough you have your concerns but there are plenty of other threads. By the way that De Ligt story is rubbish.Players like Milner and Henderson are fighting for big titles. While our world class player plays with dross managed by Moyes MK 2.
I don't blame him. As usual and in the end, it'll be oppos laughing at us when the inevitable of hiring another disastrous manager pays failure in dividends
I don't get this thinking. He is a big part of the 'shambles we are in'.I really do not blame him. He is too good for this shambles we are in. He is gone.
Real fans for you ...What the actual feck
Wait....what?Yeah because signing players who don't really want to play for us has worked so well in the past
Expect a new contract with us then, and then resuming this saga next summer!Ogden: "Sources have told ESPN FC, however, that some of Pogba's club teammates expect him to push for a move this summer if United fail to qualify for the Champions League -- an outcome which is now increasingly likely... United's determination to keep Pogba, rooted as much in the player's commercial value as his contribution to the team, may yet prompt the club to discuss a new contract with his advisors in an effort to put an end to Madrid's efforts.Tweet

One we can all laugh at. Til remembering we then bought him back for 90m, with the same agent, and now he's messing us about again.Not sure I want anymore of Mino's players. As Sir Alex quite rightly said, he's a shitbag.
Doesn't that make him a, you know, a mercenary though if the only reason he won't go to Madrid and stay here is they won't match his salary?Ogden: "Sources have told ESPN FC, however, that some of Pogba's club teammates expect him to push for a move this summer if United fail to qualify for the Champions League -- an outcome which is now increasingly likely...

The fact that we have Lukaku instead of him now is even more worthy ofThe fact we turned him down in the past .
That’s fair enough to be honest.Tweet

Bah I always forget to change that. Fixed now.@Niall - Tweet thread still says January in title
What i mean is, if the article is to be believed, he would rather play for Barcelona. If that is true i would be dubious about signing a player who's heart is elsewhere, and only views us a stepping stone.Wait....what?
So your plan is to only sign players who are die hard United fans?
How do you know he’s against playing for us? He’s linked with Barce but unless they sell Umtiti I cant see them spending £100m on a CB.
Weird post.....
The beginning and end of everything that's wrong with the club. Results on the pitch should be first and foremost.Ogden: "United's determination to keep Pogba, rooted as much in the player's commercial value as his contribution to the team..."
If we do get him to come to OT, I would almost instantly welcome him with the captain's armband. The guys is a born leader.
yep.I really do not blame him. He is too good for this shambles we are in. He is gone.
When he's played he's been really effective.He's just constantly injured.What a flop he has been.

If we were to sell Pogba to Real Madrid then that would surely give him some extra cash to go out and buy a CB as well.Tweet

If this report is true,which is debatable,I dont know why we'd have to wait for another CB past this summer.If we were to sell Pogba to Real Madrid then that would surely give him some extra cash to go out and buy a CB as well.
Depends on how much the other players cost.If we were to sell Pogba to Real Madrid then that would surely give him some extra cash to go out and buy a CB as well.
Presumably because the club have some limits in terms of money they're willing to spend in one summer? And/or the fact that we have failed to sign our targeted four signings in each of the last two summers, in which case they might see successfully making five signings this summer as unlikely.If this report is true,which is debatable,I dont know why we'd have to wait for another CB past this summer.
A CB should be one of the clubs major priorities this upcoming transfer window.
Yeah really unlucky with injuries. He was massive beforeWhen he's played he's been really effective.He's just constantly injured.
Cant believe that to be true. We need two quality centre backs in my opinion, but failing to sign any would be an absolute joke. People saying we can make do with Smalling and Lindelof and Tuanzabe to step up....what, really?Tweet

If Rom leaves which looks likely I'd go for Piatek.So what are we going to do about our striker situation?
A centre back, a world class player and captain material, pretty much everything we need....and highly unlikely to get with the expected competition and our current predicament.If we do get him to come to OT, I would almost instantly welcome him with the captain's armband. The guys is a born leader.
Can't do it all in one summer so I guess keeping faith with the likes of Lukaku is the lesser of two evils (the other for example being keeping faith with Young at RB and buying a striker instead)So what are we going to do about our striker situation?
If Lukaku leaves, and he should be the first name out considering his abilty and supposed value, pretty much all the good strikers I have seen linked would cost less. Of a;; the rumoured outs that are first team players, I would think he should be the easiest to replaceSo what are we going to do about our striker situation?
Without a CB and Striker added to that list we'll still end up 5th or 6th.Tweet

Totally agree, I cant believe some thinking we dont need any new centre backs.Forget about winning anything with these CB's. That and RB are highest priority and we'll do nothing without a proper backline.
Ole is far too inteligent to be content with our current ones. I believe we will get a CB. Who that will be is the question though.Forget about winning anything with these CB's. That and RB are highest priority and we'll do nothing without a proper backline.
There's also the left wing which is a problem, but we can't do it all in one summer. Maybe an attacking rightback and a right winger will get help get more from the strikers until the next window we can try upgrading the other areas.So what are we going to do about our striker situation?
