I see we're in the denial phase.


Excuses aside for us not managing to get yet another transfer target - this will be an incredible signing for the unfortunately.

1. He wasn't a transfer target, we left the race a long time ago.

2. It will be an incredible signing. The rags will pay a world record destroying fee for a young player they had in their own academy who is worth roughly half of what they will cough up. Incredible.

I wonder where the transfer market goes if the rags do this.

And they have been the team who does this the most. City/Chelsea get the blame but we just have to pay their stupid fucking prices & wages. They constantly fuck up the market.
 
Fucking hell, I just wish someone would buy him so that this thread can get closed. He's not coming to us so why are we still bothered?

1. He was very much the major target.
2. A lot of money, but alas they can absorb it.
 
Did the rags buy him first time around ?

Yeah, on 31st July 2009.

Glad you said that and not me.

That's never stopped you before.

Always, and they get a completely free pass for it. I don't think it will have any major impacts on the transfer market, as none of the players actually worth £100m+ (basically Messi, Neymar, Suarez and MAYBE Bale) are available anyway, as far as we know. Still it's just a typical rag move "spend now, deal with consequences later" and that's not even factoring in how they are blowing up their wage structure too.

1. Not this summer. It's widely reported Pep didn't want him and we cooled interest months ago.

2. Doesn't make it any less foolish.
 
I've literally just heard that one of the terms for Zlatan to join United, was that Pogba would be joining.

Hate to say that I fully believe that this will happen
 
As it stands Utd aren't a team I expect to finish in the top 4, but Pogba would massively upgrade their midfield. City have a far better squad, but Utd would be a top 4 contender if he signs.

De Gae's arguably the best keeper in the league

Darmian, Bailey, Smalling and Shaw looks a decent back 4 on paper, a bit light in the back up department however.

Bog brush, Pogba and Rooney is arguably better than Gundogan, Nasri and KDB.
Schneiderlin, Carrick and Herrara's more than decent back up.

Mikeywhatshisname, Ibra and Martial screams goals.


City, United and Chelsea have by far and away the strongest squads. I'd be amazed if any of them missed out on top 4.
 
Have they signed him then? Raiola said the rumours to the rags were "bullshit" yesterday.
Yes they signed him last night under the cover of darkness while Ed the equalizer Woodward watched over the proceedings in the shadows with his .22 at the ready in case the old lady mob turned up but schhhhhhh you never heard it from me :)

Bog brush?! No, I think you're over-egging them. I think Zlatan will struggle, and so will Rooney.

Of the players you mention, I rate Shaw, and De Gea, and Pogba - if they sign him. 3 players doesn't make title contenders, but they'd be back in business. They should be for £200m transfer spend (on top of a lot of big spending in previous seasons. I think over 5 years, they had outspent us)
 
Forgetting whether he is the real deal or not, it is a lot of money for someone who will ultimately want to move on (or his agent will want him to)
Two years at best .Short term investment
