He's got a lot more of a chance of getting 2 big moves out of him if he goes to United from Juve, as opposed to going to Real.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.
It's quite obvious even to the most red eyed Rag that if they get Pogba, they'll be getting Real's sloppy seconds & a player whose gone there because the only choice at that money was to stick with Juve or twist & go back in reverse to ManUre.Rag cafe is a sad place at the moment, the only ones in the race for Pogba, offering world record transfer fees and they still can't get the guy, good time for a meltdown for sure
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.
Ha. Don't rate him based on his performance in one international tournament, but rate him on his performance in another international tournament.
His club performances like I've mentioned a few posts back isn't that flashy either worthy of £105m. 8 goals in 2016, 8 in 2015, 7 in 2014, 5 in 2013. Average assist per season is 5. Perhaps more form than function?

Raiola: ‘Pogba may not leave Juventus’
JULY 11, 2016
Despite reports of a deal with Manchester United, Mino Raiola says Paul Pogba may not leave Juventus.
A number of British newspapers have reported that a deal is in place for United to purchase the French midfielder for a staggering €120m.
Speaking to the Times, Raiola has reiterated Juve’s firm intention to keep the player in Turin.
“There is a lot of talk about Paul’s future, but maybe he will not leave Juventus,” Raiola told the paper.
“He is in no rush to leave, and Juventus do not want him to go. They want him to renew his contract.
“Paul is not desperate to move. We are very happy at Juventus and they are a club that want to keep their star players.
“Juventus have treated Paul exceptionally well. They are a fantastic club and they believe in him.”
Pogba did not go missing!! He did what the coach asked him to do. How do you open up the Portuguese defence playing in front of the back 4? The commentators and pundits on BBC really ought to be a bit more thoughtful. Sissoko gets the leading role because he was the man who Matuidi and Pogba's defensive positioning was freed and tasked with charging at the Portuguese defence.
Clearly a lot of fans now know he's on his way to Utd and are busy rubbishing him. I think I will have to join up.
After 5 years of being No. 1 in Manchester and England we now have serious competition from Man Utd. Bring it on! Best season we have ever had was 2010-11 capped by Aguero, and so much of the joy / excitement was down to having genuine competition from our biggest rivals. It will be sweet again when we beat them. It's like Celtic v Rangers. Some of the excitement and tension disappears when they are not a competitor.
Get your heads around the fact that Utd are going to be title contenders or perhaps even title favourites if they make this signing. Whether they have overpaid or not, who cares. We certainly can't criticise them for that.
My opinion on Pogba hasn't altered one bit from this time last year, when we were supposedly in for him. I think the guy is class and unfortunately he'll improve them hugely, if he does go there.
Where I do have slightly "blue tinted specs" is I believe if he goes there, it'll only be for 3 years and I think he knows this as does his agent.
If we were in for him, I believe it would be for the long term and again I think his agent would have known that also!
Where both clubs differ and the proof is in the pudding with Aguero, Silva, Toure and a lesser extent Tevez, is we have every intention of keeping our true world class players for as long as possible. Not just getting them on a 3 year stop off. United for want of a better phrase are a selling club, they know it and more importantly so do players and the likes of Madrid!
I even think Madrid could be sat back now hoping the kid ends up at United, safe in the knowledge that they've got an excellent opportunity of bagging him in a few years time, when he's proven himself even more. If he were coming to us, they along with Barca wouldn't be sitting so comfortably.
