Interesting quote from the article:

Juventus are adamant that the 23-year-old Frenchman, who has a contract with the Turin club until 2019, is not for sale and will do everything in their power to keep him. They recently offered Pogba a new contract, which would extend his deal for a further two years and increase his wages from €5m to €7m a year.

However, José Mourinho hopes United will meet the player’s demands of €15.6m a year in an attempt to move ahead of Real in the chase for the player. That may still not be enough to ensure Pogba returns to Old Trafford, unless United can find an agreement with Juventus.

Real Madrid - consistent challenger for trophies, genuine CL contenders year in year out, world class players throughout the squad and a guarantee of out of this world salary. Oh and a manager you idolised as a youngster...

Rags - consistently inconsistent. Signed a proven short term manager who will leave behind turmoil rather than legacy. Surrounded by has beens and never will be's. Oh and they refused to play you last time and were happy to watch you go. Best way to avenge that is to lead them on then let them down. Pogba must be loving their interest now, but equally he surely wouldn't consider going there when Real are interested.

A choice between Kroos and Pogba and Kroos wins in my book simply because he's a master at passing and pulling strings. Pogba can burst through from midfield and win a game, can dominate as Yaya used to - but a team is a sum of all its parts and Kroos for me is just majestic to watch. He sees things that are obvious when watched from the stands, but hard to see from pitch level. He keeps the ball moving, one touch most of the time. He spreads the play from one side to the other and also fires it 20/30 yards into feet in attacking areas. Class act.

 

[meeesh]

I'd say Sane, also.

Oooohhhhhh you are a tease :)

I am admittedly only half way through Pep Confidential but already I just can't see how Pogba fits into his plans.

The dimensions of his game just don't fit with the way Pep sets out to do things. The Yaya role that people seem to think he can step into just doesn't exist in the way he sets teams out to play

I an increasingly of the opinion that our interest was nothing more than contingency planning on our part in case Pep didn't come and we had to rebuild the team round a dominating central midfielder as we have done for the past few seasons

Surely bullshit because we could have got him for £19m, now his release clause is expired and would cost much more

 

[cucumberman]

Yes this is the player I want us to sign the most. Got a release clause too.

 

[cucumberman]

Surely bullshit because we could have got him for £19m, now his release clause is expired and would cost much more

Has his release clause indeed expired?

Edit: Nevermind that, found out it was 1st July. Maybe we sneaked in an agreement before that but Looks more likely you're right.

Well it applies to the other clubs too? And no one's got him so far

 

[decmancity]

1.5 tackles per game?

Don't want a bottler, who does half a tackle?!
No thanks.

The fraud has spoken... Hope he is right for a change though :)

 

[MeatHunterrr]

Im not completely sure but there was some talk of that, even Klaus Allofs himself hinted to Kicker couple of weeks back that Rodriguez would cost more after 1st July, but that may be him trying to scare others away.

 

[chemicalboy99]

Kin' hate these.

Ok "Stop me if you think you've heard this one before" could relate to a chat up line with the ladies or perhaps a really piss poor joke that you've heard before. I dont think there's any footballer that rhymes with ladies or chat up but looking at the word Joke, it certainly rhymes with the word Koke and change the K to a C and you have Coke and everybody knows that Coke is it and that the holidays are coming and normally in the summer holidays it's the transfer window.....I reckon it's somebody from Athletico Madrid or Sevilla so either Fernando Torres or Steven N'zonzi!!

Can't wait for the Londonboys Vid...
