BBC Football Gossip :
“Manchester City are interested in signing Manchester United and France midfielder Paul Pogba, 29, on a free transfer. (Mail)

Pogba would like to work with manager Pep Guardiola and City are willing to offer the World Cup winner a four-year deal”

JUST FUCK RIGHT OFF

I’m in the wrong job here, who wishes they could write random bollocks on a laptop without getting dressed or leaving their bedroom, make up a story and write the words ‘Manchester City’ & ‘Pogba’, generate clicks and earn money pretending to be a journalist then get back into bed and shake hands with the one eye’d milkman!
Absolute fucking frauds - Pogba would never agree to join us :-)

Don't worry lads, it's just another trick to make the rags sign him up again so he can run down his contract and leave for free at the end of it, again.

Rag Stone has now done it as a “news story” on BBC.
Pogba could move to City”
Seriously sums up the pathetic journalism in this country. A story based on a rumour. What next a story ” It could rain tomorrow”

I've just noticed in this morning's DT that Declan looks to be getting a three matcher for suggesting that the ref in their Europa game t'other night was less than even-handed. Can't understand what possessed the lad. Everyone knows that anything and everything Uefa and their apparatchiks do is scrupulous, impartial and the good of the game is the driving force of its 'raison d'être'!

You've started early, major!

Line up for the race to the bottom

Probably bollocks but if Pep thinks he can get a tune out of Pogba, I trust Pep.

Meanwhile in landon it looks nailed on for another yank takeover of a English club chelsea. This might be in the wrong thread (feel free to move Ric). When this goes through how many prem clubs does that make USA owned?

And Sky manage to shoehorn the rags into their coverage of it. Shocker!

Comes on half his wages and double his effort I could see myself laughing at the rags imploding as he tears them a new one next season.

The BBC seems happy to publish a story without a single source quoted in it. Stone is not fit to be working in journalism. I don't know his background but he does not have even the most basic skills of a junior reporter. He has lifted a story from the tabloids. He doesn't even attribute where the story has come from and appears not to have even put in a phone call to City to check it. Media standards are lower than ever. This is so obviously a placed story from Pogba's camp (that is the way he has always operated) Does anyone with any sanity really believe that any club in the world would offer a four-year contract to a 29-year old fancydan who has been a disaster in the PL?

If that’s correct then that’s nearly half the prem. Wonder how it will affect rule changes in the future?

They'll probably have us throwing penalties and goal kicks off a big mound.
