Paul Pogba

So if the rags want to pay that silly amount , I am assuming ffp don't apply to them ?

They have a huge income and sponsors who perform like one arm bandits who always pay out. And FFP was tailored to exclude their kind of debt structure.

They effectively have unlimited resources.

Isn't he just. I bet the Geordies are scratching their heads at him thinking " is that the same sissoko"....

I don't know why people are saying they're not bothered about him based on his performance at the Euros. Didn't he get player of the tournament at Brazil or something like that?

You judge a player off their club performances, where they train and work to a system most of the year, not a team they play with now and again managed by someone who doesn't spend most of the professional year with them.

Rags will pay what it takes, we've seen how desperate they've been in the past but now they don't have a manager out of their depth. Seems it's down to the player - unless Real come back in, it's rags (europa) long-term or stay at Juve and see what options present themselves in future it appears. If Real have genuinely balked at the money, I'd be surprised; they've splashed out much bigger sums than the rest in the past - e.g. Zidane, Bale, Ronaldo etc.

Saying that, he might be a good player but he'll never get close to Zidane.

In answer to your question - it is quite simple, I haven't seen much of his performances with Juventus . Therefore I can only judge on what I have seen.

He appears to be coming with a lot of hype , and I would have expected him to have shown more .

Ha, I don't have a clue what will happen. I just wouldn't take Raiola at his word. He's probably just posturing to try and get even more money out of United.

Exactly that, and given that he's dealing with Woodward, Raiola will know he can squeeze even more money out of him.

Its obvious why Mino wants him to go to United. They'd pay pretty much anything to get him, he can rinse them for wages and agents fee's etc..

But what he also knows is, that if Pogba is a success and helps United to a league title, United won't be able to fight off Madrid if they come calling again. Then he can cash in again on another transfer of Pogba.

If he goes straight to Real now, realistically that is the one big move he will get out of Pogba. If he goes United he can get 2.

And they've only just snook into the europa league? Surely there's a joke to be made from this?

If he went the rags now for 100m+ and he's a success Real would have to pay 150m+........ No chance they would pay it and rags wouldn't need to sell.
