So far Bravo has hardly been able to stop a shot at him, using that rational he might be world class next season.

Um, I assume Ederson might play more, but that's optimism. Pogba is pessimism.

Pogba has shown signs of being a top player, a few goals, quite a lot of near misses, etc. Build a team for him (so not Fellaini or Rooney to start with), and he'll be better.
 
£40m for Matic is hilarious - 29 years old, no competition, and more obtainable players on the market for them.

Makes the £45m for Walker seem reasonable. £43m for B.Silva is the bargain of the summer.
 
Peg told woodywoodhead who he wanted to sign back in march now they seem to be scraping round to sign anyone who can kick a ball, they will be signing wilfried zaha back at this rate.

Based on who they've been linked with, being able to kick a ball isn't the key requirement. Height seems to be the main factor, so expect more beautiful football from the Portuguese Pullis

At first I thought it was odd that they wanted someone as average as Perisic for so much money, but it is hard to find a winger that tall so you have to pay a premium. Fabinho, giant. Matic, giant. Lindelof, big. They've even been linked with Talisca, who is pretty average, but it's hard to find many 6 foot 3 attacking midfielders.

Maybe we can sell them Boney, he's got as much movement in him as that big nosed cheating c##t, £50m to start but we'll settle for £20.

Typical team building from the moaner then, big guys, lump it forward football. The next signing by them will be lauded as the second coming though lol

Really,I was more impressed by Gylfi Sigurdsson last season
He didn't touch the ball in 2 games against us !
 
So i have just seen a picture of a rather flabby looking Rooney on his hols, nowt wrong with that one may say. However i thought he was supposed to be returning to training early with pics of him doing just that last week.

You can see my confusion here, either Rooney has fucked it off already or it was a load of nonsense in the first place from a friendly journo hoping to make him still look a viable purchase for some fools.

Either way it is another chance to laugh at utd and Rooney, i have done this very often in the last 7 or so years and long may it continue.

Not sure if the Dembele rumours are true but some on the sad act have a good sense of humour.

If you had written 'Darren Fletcher' or 'James Morrison' or 'Tom Huddlestone' or '*insert name of average Premier League midfielder*' instead of Pogba there, I wouldn't have disagreed.

Don't swallow the media-driven b.s. that he was "finding his feet" and "just you wait until next year".

Pogba was by and large, crap last year.

The one thing I like about the lad is his strength and how he protects the ball, but his distribution and contribution are way, way below the standard I expected from him; and I don't see that changing next year.
