Paul Pogba

[GX Blue]

Why are so many of you obsessed with pogba going to united?
Fuck them
If you're that bothered sign up to rag cafe

I was thinking that. How can this thread still be at the top of a City forum... ALL SUMMER!
We aren't in for him so who gives a f**k?

Quick google of Premiership wage bills has the top 4 as

Chelsea at the top with £215m
Man Utd £203m
City £194m
Arsenal £192m

The data was supposedly for 2015-16, but I suspect it might be for the previous season

Utd;s wage bill will presumably go steeply upwards after Ibra and Pogba (if he signs)

Have you got links to any articles about how they are "ruining football", Marv?!

 

[bluebanjo]

According to L'Equipe they are signing him for £100m, paying £18.4m to his agent and paying him £220,000 pw after tax for five years. That equates to £211.760,00.
Mugs.

There's this. Good book



I hope the author lived long enough to see 2011

Hate United with a passion but fuck me they're efficient in the market. They're wrapping up a deal for the world's may expensive player so quickly.

The author fucking hates our recent success.

How is a player we are not even in for so high up on the transfer forum?

Could not give a fuck the what the rags do, my eyes are only on City!

Really? Other than the title, which I assumed was down to the publishers, I thought that was a good book.

What's the reason? City had to sell their soul to the devil to be successful?

Does this constitute "buying the league" or "distorting the market/ruining football" maybe as it is utd... "bringing the boy home" or "a good investment that demonstrates utd still have considerable allure as a top club". Ok ok, well at least let it be known it is now legal to murder any utd fan that ever accuses a City fan of the two former possible options above :-D

He should improve them, hope squad politics see's Mourinho juggling hot coals and knives though for a good laugh. The fee is just stupid though imo.
Neymar and Messi can command these numbers, maybe a couple of others but i just don't see Pogba in that bracket, yet at least.
