Hah! Knew it.Paul Pogba is Real Madrid's primary target this summer and Los Blancos are eager to include Gareth Bale in a deal to sign the Frenchman from Manchester United.Tweet

Zinedine Zidane has made clear that his compatriot would be ideal for his team's midfield, but the Red Devils are not willing to negotiate his transfer.
Pogba's agent, Mino Raiola, has twice travelled to Manchester to communicate his client's intention to depart England, while Madrid's directors have also tried to reach the Premier League club's board who have refuse to enter into talks.
People scoffed at Liverpool when they signed VVD for a shitload but that worked out for them.
Van Dijk is better in every department, how is it comparable? Especially when Leicester want such an insane amount of money.So is slabhead!
Huge money for a centre back that many think is far too much. It's comparable even though you might not think they're the same level.Van Dijk is better in every department, how is it comparable? Especially when Leicester want such an insane amount of money.
The best defender in the world is better than Maguire - who is surprised?Van Dijk is better in every department, how is it comparable? Especially when Leicester want such an insane amount of money.
We Phil Jones was supposed to be the new Duncan Edwards. Some transfers work, some don't. If Maguire is who Ole wants, get your wallet out.VVD wasnt the new Phil Jones
So you think £90 million is sensible? Would you like it if Chelsea paid such an amount for Maguire? I'd rather go for some young CB that is a dominating force in the air and won't cost a fortune.Huge money for a centre back that many think is far too much. It's comparable even though you might not think they're the same level.
Or they are building it up for the next year. Generally how they operate with high profile transfers.We don’t want Bale and Bale won’t come, Madrid will cough up in the end , I think he’ll go
Hi Edward2nd September. Good luck with that Madrid. We won’t be selling after the English window closes on 8th August.
It’s obviously comparable in that the fee and age of the player is very similar. VVD wasn’t considered the best in the world or even close to it before moving to Liverpool. In many ways Maguires reputation is higher than VVD when he moved.Huge money for a centre back that many think is far too much. It's comparable even though you might not think they're the same level.
I don't think we have ever really been that interested in him, and I'm 99.9% he won't be playing for us next season, i think there's more chance of a McTomaney, Pogba Longstaff midfieldTweet

More chance of Christmas day coming tomorrow than us bidding 90m for himSurely we won't be doing a 90M transfer for Maguire. There is no upside to it at all even if we get top 4, there is no way we can recoup that. Likely we will settle it for 70M or walkaway .
I didn't think £75m for VVD was sensible but that turned out ok. I didn't think whatever we paid for Kepa was sensible but I'm very happy with him. I thought getting Higuian in on loan was sensible but that ended up dogshit.So you think £90 million is sensible? Would you like it if Chelsea paid such an amount for Maguire? I'd rather go for some young CB that is a dominating force in the air and won't cost a fortune.
Pogba will be super chuffed with that.I don't think we have ever really been that interested in him, and I'm 99.9% he won't be playing for us next season, i think there's more chance of a McTomaney, Pogba Longstaff midfield
Yes wouldn’t surprise me , they certainly have history with those tactics, convinced it’ll be this summer thoughOr they are building it up for the next year. Generally how they operate with high profile transfers.
Not fussed about Fernandes, but if we go for Longstaff and Maguire then it’s massively underwhelming. We’ll have spent a fortune for a scrap for 5th. This obsession with British players is just odd.I don't think we have ever really been that interested in him, and I'm 99.9% he won't be playing for us next season, i think there's more chance of a McTomaney, Pogba Longstaff midfield
The club is willing to listen to offers for the French defender but want to bank at least €50mTweet

The problem is that we don't have the luxury of a comfortable league status or an abundance of good players to afford bedding in youth especially at CB which is a key area where we are lacking.Would like to see Tuanzebe given a chance, I believe with a season of Prem football under his belt he could be on the fringes of the England set up. I like Macguire, but I too think that £70 is far too much, but I also think Leicester will turn that down, if we go higher then we are truly bonkers. We should be highlighting the three, four, five players we are interested in, put in reasonable (not stupid) bids, the negotiate, it appears as though we are chasing everyone who becomes available (I know most of it is media talk), but by now we should be making two, three, four bids, not one at a time, surely we have more than one negotiator who can do the ground work before the main man seals any deal
Makes sense. He did such a great job for Liverpool last season in the semis.
There were people suggesting he was worse than Phil Jones, when Liverpool signed him.VVD wasnt the new Phil Jones
He s crocked too...A million times more appealing than a world record fee for Maguire. He isn’t British though.
Pini Zahavi's time is almost up. He's no longer the man that can make the impossible possible. Failed to get big Lewy out of Munich to his dream employer Real last season. And now Pini's going to fail again with Neymar.
That's what Ole and the board want, think they reckon the team of the 90s and 2000s will happen all over again because we have British players, sadly they are wrongNot fussed about Fernandes, but if we go for Longstaff and Maguire then it’s massively underwhelming. We’ll have spent a fortune for a scrap for 5th. This obsession with British players is just odd.
I understand wanting players who are ‘committed’ and won’t leave for Spain if the going gets tough, but unless you’re going for players at the very highest level it’s pointless. It’s easier to keep players in a successful team and there isn’t many of those who focus on homegrown players.That's what Ole and the board want, think they reckon the team of the 90s and 2000s will happen all over again because we have British players, sadly they are wrong
Our new strikerTweet

Count how many British players you expect to start for us next season and count how many Ole or even this board have bought.That's what Ole and the board want, think they reckon the team of the 90s and 2000s will happen all over again because we have British players, sadly they are wrong
Can't wait for them to make a lowball unsettling offer after our window has already closed and we can't even sign a replacementTweet

And worse than Smalling.
