carmine Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 So if the Pogba deal actually happens it seems his agent could well trouser 18m as his cut. Totally disgusting if true. Surely a club with a appeal United has must have better options than a player so wildly over priced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRed Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Very true Carmine and there are much better options out there it just seems a media inspired story that United have jumped on....... for the money and the past history between him and United it is all a little ridiculous really and he is not even a player that is performing consistenly brilliant to warrent anywhere near the rated price for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a club with a appeal United has must have better options than a player so wildly over priced? That appeal being £'s, because it isn't the shirt, no matter what a player tells you. These fukers are more enthused about Pokeman Go than giving a toss about the colour of the shirt, it's history means <deleted> all. Look at the players that have joined City in recent history? I agree with what you are saying, surely for a 100M you could strengthen your squad, and improve your chances of winning the league. Unfortunately, this is a business before it's a sport these days. 100M on a promotional product has a greater chance of ROI than investment in less-marketable products that might, might win you a trophy of two.

carmine Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Doesn't seem to be any secret that Mourinho's buying is focusing on the spine of the team. Sensible imho and only criticisms seem to be coming regards amounts of money. However, despite the crazy figures flying around how much of that is particularly relevant to United with their global revenues and Sky handouts?

Looks like Pogba's done bar crossing the t's so that striker, central midfield and keeper sorted. Wouldn't be surprised if something does actually happen on the CB front. Stones? Or Varane if he's available. Real quality player. Wouldn't be surprised if 8 or more players get cut as well. As much disdain as i have for Mourinho he really knows how to set a team up. But i very much doubt he'll have any need of Carrington. He just not a long term appointment as a manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We thought we had a long term appointment when Moyes took the job I doubted Mourinho,s appointment because of his "personality" and ego........but there is an anticipation among United fans for the forthcoming season not seen for quite some time. Three new highly experienced managers and one nearly new "klip Klopp" at four of our top clubs makes this season (in my humble opinion) the most exciting for a long long time. sadly coming towards the end of next season we will have the usual cry of "Arsene out" once more bring it on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching the last game could not be more impressed by Rashford .He seems to have more pace that last year which you might expect given his age.Can't remember a young player that has burst through with such quality in such a short time.I really don't see how Mourinho can leave him out. Valencia crossing was back to where it was 3 years ago.Competition for spots might be the spark thats needed.I guess this week will see who is leaving, sold, or on loan. Bastien S for sure, training with the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another couple of weeks and Pogba will be paid for. So, last year MU sold approx 150 million quids worth over the entire season which was, to be fair, a 34% increase on the previous year. Now they have sold almost half that amount in a week....on 1 player! Who is doing the "reports"? Sounds like Zlatan himself to me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 ^Sabotaged by City fans: "Oh Rodney Rodney, Rodney Rodney Rodney Rodney Rodney Marsh." Opportune moment to reminisce. When Alf Ramsey told Marsh, "If you don't work harder I'll pull you off at half time," Marsh replied: "Crikey, Alf, at Manchester City all we get is an orange and a cup of tea." He was never picked again. Boom tish! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicog Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Hahaah The Special Needs one is already at it. Quote Mourinho claimed the press was unfair in their treatment of him, saying “I only speak about us. I heard two of my colleagues from other clubs already speaking about us. I do not like that. It is not ethical. There are things that when I do are not ethical and when others do it everything is normal and nobody says that. I do not speak about the others. They can do what they want.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
