Paul Pogba

If he moves to Real, I hope that opens the door for Kroos.

AS:

Pogba, "Go to Real Madrid? I don't know, we'll see."

The #FRA midfielder was responding to a Madridista in Clairefontaine.

Doesn't he always say that though? I seem to believe he said something similar to a City fan in NY last year if I remember correctly.

Terrible news if he goes to the Rags.
Midfield is an area we need to strengthen. Worried were already lagging behind this summer

Lagging behind who exactly?

This story is from the Star? Probably not worth getting giddy just yet ;-)

Stuff him...thiago is ready made for pep's systems, and is far more likely.

Thiago and Kroos would make for a dynamite window.

Liverpool, they signed Mane for 34 million...lol

Its funny, only yesterday the scum were all out for Neymar and then he signs a new contract. Now all of a sudden they are all out for Pogba according to the rag tops.

It would be an absolute disaster if he goes there. One of the very few players who would take a 5th, 6th, 7th ranking club which is where I see Utd finishing at this moment, to title contenders for years to come. It directly affects us as it makes what we want to do so much harder. However, we may know he's not coming to England and will only leave Juve for Spain. If he goes to Utd though that would be a massive error of judgement. I don't believe for one minute the claims that Pep doesn't want him.

But I like the additions of Nolito and Gundogan. Not sure how that can be described as lagging behind.

Last season we had 3 weaknesses in the squad:

1) Toure was gone, and we had no credible replacement
2) Navas for2nd season running scored zero goals from outwide.
3) Fullbacks deteriorated. Attacking full back play is a huge part of the game. Sagna is poor going forward. Zab slowed up. Kolarov the best going forward, but lost it defensively. Clichy OK, but no more than OK. This is the area that needs sorting now: unless we're playing 3 at the back which is a possibility.

Worry for me is KDB/Silva. Difficult to see them working in same team. possibly 3 at the back would allow us to do that

Well he ran riot against us and he has power and blistering pace and is a perfect fit for a team managed by Klopp. Apart from that yeh it's a fucking hilarious signing!
