Lots of media reports indicating that the Pogba / Jose relationship has broken down completely. Pogba seems to have set his heart on Spain, whilst I am not a huge fan of Jose I think he has treated Pogba reasonably and consistently. We should sell him quickly, if possible, for £90m plus and use the money wisely before the end of the European transfer window.

Cinderella

1.) 16 Aug 2018 11:15:28
What will you use the money for?


2.) 16 Aug 2018 12:58:09
Perhaps Milinkovic-Savic as a replacement. Defence is ok but we should play Sanchez on the right.


3.) 16 Aug 2018 13:11:00
I don’t think you understand. We can’t sign players now.


4.) 16 Aug 2018 13:15:10
Living in Cinderella land?


5.) 16 Aug 2018 13:17:43
Correct, we could sell to Barcelona by 31 August but would not be able to buy until January.


6.) 16 Aug 2018 14:04:20
Must be true, it's in The Sun and they never make things up to sell papers.

{Ed004's Note - Or put sentences in quotes without any source referenced}


7.) 16 Aug 2018 14:46:30
Oh dear. Football Manager clearly ignores the closure of transfer windows. Sell and buy whenever you want.


8.) 16 Aug 2018 14:49:14
If there is one player we should get rid of its alexis sanchez, we haven't played well since he joined.


9.) 16 Aug 2018 16:00:32
Maybe he means buy in advance for January's window. His price will go up then, so best to secure the replacement now before letting Pogba go.

Alternatively he didn't realise the rule change. lol.


10.) 16 Aug 2018 16:12:12
Well he replied 3 hours earlier clearly stating he knew of the rules.


11.) 16 Aug 2018 17:01:55
Clearly I was late to the ball.


12.) 16 Aug 2018 21:18:18
'Transfer Window' sounds better than 'Registration Period'.


13.) 16 Aug 2018 23:51:27
Hi all,
Thanks to the Eds as always.
Has anyone considered that the press are creating a monster here?! Last season the story wasn’t any different and I remember Pogba interrupting Jose during a post match interview (he hadn’t even played in the match) to celebrate with his manager. Is there not a chance here that the media are purely trying to create a mess? I think so.


14.) 17 Aug 2018 03:18:35
Or more of a mess.


15.) 17 Aug 2018 04:49:53
Reading rumors now that AC Milan are close to agreeing a EUR40m deal to purchase Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. And we were thinking that Utd were quoted EUR100 (>_.

{Ed001's Note - United were.}


16.) 17 Aug 2018 11:12:59
I think the press have an agenda, I can’t believe I’m typing this but I’m starting to feel sorry for Jose. I hope he has a man to man with Pogba and tells him he can be the best in the world if he does as he is told, but that he also plays him where he can excel.


17.) 17 Aug 2018 11:37:15
That €40M is just loan fee per rumours. Ac will have to pay another €100M to make the deal permanent.

Even though I don't think it will happen.


18.) 17 Aug 2018 22:11:16
Can Utd still loan players upto Sunday . James Wilson to Aberdeen on Tuesday. I'm sure we have until Sunday to sign anyone for a loan period ie SMS 😆😆.


19.) 18 Aug 2018 11:22:21
Probably about Wilson’s level.


 

 

02 Aug 2018 15:38:43
Lots of stories that players are disillusioned with Jose. Can't remember SAF publicly criticising players as they are now. In any job a manager needs to visibly demonstrate a commitment to his or her employers. Jose continuing to live in a hotel, with his family still in London, doesn't really demonstrate great commitment or permanence.

Cinderella

1.) 02 Aug 2018 16:21:28
Hi. Welcome to the page. Obviously you haven't been reading the page much going by your post.

SAF didn't publicly criticize, he just kicked them in the head.


2.) 02 Aug 2018 18:30:10
Looks like Spurs are having a clear out . Dembele, Rose and Auderwield. Be happy if we could get Rose and Toby.
Not sure on this Yerry Mina chap.
I'm sure Levy would like to rinse any interested parties for what he can . Or better still they don't move on and leave him up the creek.
But hopefully we can Toby at a decent price, In my eyes a a much better fit than Mina.
Then sell Smalling or Jones or Rojo for that matter.
Be glad when transfer window shuts . Doing my pigging head in.
Up the reds.


3.) 02 Aug 2018 19:11:09
Alderweireld a big yes but Rose a big no.


4.) 02 Aug 2018 22:48:17
Read on the Wolves page when digging for information around Sterling that Rose may end up there on a season long loan with option to buy at the end.


5.) 02 Aug 2018 23:40:42
So if pogba was to be sold this window, how much do you think he is worth? I think at least £140m. I really hope he stays tho. If he did go tho who would replace him?


6.) 02 Aug 2018 23:41:02
Smalling* apologies.


7.) 03 Aug 2018 00:04:09
I would be amazed if any team in the world was willing to pay £100mil+ for Pogba.


8.) 03 Aug 2018 06:52:26
Where Jose chooses to live is of no business to anybody but him and his family. Lots of people all over the country choose to live nowhere near where their jobs are.

Families and home are a permanent thing, jobs are transient where we exchange our time for money. Gone are the days mostly where people stay with the same employee for life.


9.) 03 Aug 2018 09:56:47
I'm guessing Jose lives on his own, so why wouldn't he stay in a hotel? He doesn't need to cook or clean for himself and I'm sure he is not staying in a studio apartment. Seems to be that some people want to find any reason they can to bring him down.


10.) 03 Aug 2018 11:25:54
Look at what lukaku said about Jose. He’s a serial winner.

{Ed004's Note - Don't you mean serial whinger? Media couldn't have reported something that positive}


11.) 03 Aug 2018 13:07:45
It’s getting ridiculous isn’t it ed. People only hear and read what they want these days due to the media.

{Ed004's Note - Exactly. Negative comments on Utd sell papers so it won't stop anytime soon}


12.) 03 Aug 2018 15:05:58
What would you do? Live in a 5 star hotel all in @ 5k a week ( paid for by Utd) . Or live in wilmslow.


 

 

13 Nov 2017 23:02:34
More rumours around that we are to splash a load of money on buying Gareth Bale from Real Madrid next Summer. Bale has been a very good player but he is 29 next Julu. Perhaps more importantly he has missed 40 of Reals last 60 games through injury. I suspect his best days may be behind him.

Cinderella

1.) 14 Nov 2017 00:15:06
Wouldn’t touch him Cinderella. Always preferred griezmann so we can only hope.


2.) 14 Nov 2017 08:46:20
Griez and Bale are now quite different players but I think the ship has sailed on Bale and we should be looking to players who can stay fit but be equally effective. He’s too bulky now and his explosive pace means he’s always susceptible to an injury. Personally I think the full back positions, especially left back are much more urgent positions to address to give us more balance and width.


3.) 14 Nov 2017 09:43:03
I like Bale but his injury record just gets worse and worse, I don’t think he is worth the risk any more.


4.) 14 Nov 2017 10:35:43
I'm a big bale fan and would have loved us to get him last summer, other posters pointed out it was to risky as he's injured a lot and now to be honest they are being proved correct . Very hard to justify big fee and big wages .


5.) 14 Nov 2017 13:38:01
If Real believed in Bale then he wouldn't be leaving. Too many injuries have cost him. Back to Spurs would be good business.


6.) 14 Nov 2017 14:49:45
I'm also a long term admirer of bales but at his age and likely cost its a huge risk given his injury record.
Bale at his best is awesome but are we likely to see him fit often enough?
A very reluctant no from me.
Sods law tells me he will sign for spurs and play 150 games in a row if we pass him up.


7.) 15 Nov 2017 11:52:55
Have never wanted bale and bearing in mind that he is having a bad season at AM I am not convinced that griezmann is worth the money he would cost. Since the board may be unwilling to sanction another huge signing 30 million on ozil might not be the worst shout especially as he has worked with Jose before. I would also agree that sorting out our full back options should be the main priority.


8.) 15 Nov 2017 14:25:52
Bale is on a downward slide. Griezman looks Barcelona bound. I still say Sanchez would do great at UTD - Jose wanted Willian in the summer (according to willian himself) Sanchez is a better player, works as hard if not harder than willian too. Seems to be destined for City though.


9.) 15 Nov 2017 15:12:21
If anybody says Bale, I’d rather bring back CR7 since he is more fit than Bale. Having said that, I’d rather we not waste our money getting these 2 “on downhill” players. They’re both getting on with age and although they have experience, Zlatan is enough. We should be looking to “invest” in younger and good potential players. With the same money I’m sure we can buy a few defenders and wingers rather than spend unwisely on Bale and CR7.


 

 

04 Aug 2015 16:54:40
Rumours that Real Madrid are to bid for Otamendi, any of the Eds know if this rumour has substance. It would also be interesting to know what our net transfer spending has been so far this Summer.

Cinderella

{Ed004's Note - Don't think there is any truth in it and around 20 mill now}


1.) 05 Aug 2015 08:33:04
they sold an older mathieu for a huge amount of money, surely otamendi would leave for more


2.) 05 Aug 2015 00:31:23
Net impact on the wage bill would be interesting too if I can be cheeky Ed004?

I'd guess it's not insignificant and we'd still be up with a couple more big ish signings?

{Ed004's Note - No idea}


 

 

14 Jul 2015 12:38:40
French newspapers reporting this morning that PSG have agreed terms with ADM. Of course, no transfer fee has been agreed yet but I do believe ADM does not want to stay in Manchester.

Cinderella

1.) 14 Jul 2015 13:08:00
If he does leave(which I hope we doesn't) then I hope we don't get Cavani. He's not the player he was at Napoli.


2.) 14 Jul 2015 14:23:21
Matt,

How often have you seen him play at PSG?


3.) 14 Jul 2015 14:40:55
People don't like Cavani and Gaitan and I can't fathom why. Gaitan just because he is linked time and again. He is a really good player, has all the attributes to do good for us. Cavani offers so much with his physicality and strength and a good knack to score goals be it with dribbling the defender, rounding the keeper or hitting from some yards out. People just don't like them because they don't like them. Oh dear.


4.) 14 Jul 2015 14:56:41
Gaitan doesn't score or assist very often is the reason he isn't wanted one would assume. Cavani has an excellent scoring record although drifts in and out of games, he gets goals though and that's what counts.


5.) 14 Jul 2015 16:13:11
Cavani is the 4th top scorer in Europe over the last 5 years behind Ronaldo, Messi and Zlatan.

He would be a fantastic signing.


6.) 14 Jul 2015 16:42:16
Offer bayern 50 mill for lewandowski I know they said they wouldn't sell to us twice but surely who's in charge eldnt knock back 50 mill for someone they got for nothing


7.) 14 Jul 2015 16:43:05
cavani would be perfect for the EPL.

im not a fan of gaitan


8.) 14 Jul 2015 16:49:22
Gaitan I don't want Cavani I do


9.) 14 Jul 2015 17:36:42
why not give the same 50m for kane .he be ready to rotate with rooney too


10.) 14 Jul 2015 19:16:23
Gaiten wouldn't make the starting team why we would buy him after off loading Nani is mental. I agree we should chuck whatever it takes to get Lewandowski what a player absolutely perfect for LvGs style


11.) 14 Jul 2015 20:27:16
Dwill we don't need kane we've got Wilson given the chance he could turn out a lot better hfully LVG will give him more playing time


12.) 14 Jul 2015 20:32:20
It's fantastic to be linked to the biggest names again after falling from our pedestal somewhat but I don't think they're needed. A striker who is willing to bench for Rooney (Benteke, Icardi etc) is more suitable than another worldie fighting for up top like last season, leading to perhaps a number of strikers failing to hit top form (again). I for one am delighted we have fixed our midfield and can't wait to see Rooney playing a full season at the head of our attack. We have already signed 4 players, a striker and a defender would take it to over half the team and that is assuming DDG does not require replacing. Just a thought but given that maybe there is little business left.

Since the 2015/ 16 Season we have spent £1150 million on transfers. Our sales, during that period were £328 million. Thus our net spend has been £823 million. We are bottom of the table, unbelievable ineptitude.

17 Oct 2020 21:57:14
Rumours today that both Real and Barcelona are monitoring the position of Bruno Fernandes. Perhaps they have heard about his relationship with OGS and some of the players.

Cinderella

{Ed002's Note - Someone is teasing you. Real Madrid have four firm targets for next summer already - and Barcelona would only be interested in a loan or for free.}


1.) 17 Oct 2020 22:03:54
Seen nothing tonight to suggest Bruno is going through trouble with the gaffer.


2.) 17 Oct 2020 22:05:30
Mbappe, Carlos and Camavinga I think Ed has mentioned in the past as Madrid's primary targets for summer.


3.) 18 Oct 2020 07:46:18
Caolan, Bruno is a consummate professional. Even if there is a problem between himself and the coach, you won't see it on the pitch. He is different class.


4.) 18 Oct 2020 08:12:29
Mbappe, Pogba, Haaland and Camavinga I assume.

{Ed002's Note - Wel,l no.}


 

 

17 Jul 2019 19:53:25
Am I the only one who thinks we really should sell Pogba if we can get our money back. He has talent but is lazy and a malign influence on the team both on the pitch and in the dressing room. Leopards don't change their spots and we should rebuild without him.

Cinderella

1.) 17 Jul 2019 20:25:47
Do you read the posts or have you just popped on with this nugget? This has been done to death. Some think he is maligned, others think he is a lazy arse. Pick your side.


2.) 17 Jul 2019 20:26:05
Cinderella you are not the only one.
If he wants to leave then the club are entitled to get as much as possible if they don't get that then it looks like he will have to stay.
He has not handed in a written transfer request so he can't be that desperate to get out.
Keeping an unhappy player is a gamble that can backfire. None of us are privy to the conversations he has had with ole.
If ole thinks he is worth keeping and has a plan for the team to improve with pogba in it and he feels he knows how to make it all work then i have to support the manager. He is the one that is obviously happy that pogba will be committed if he stays.
If pogna tells ole he wants to leave and will not be motivated if he stays then he had to be sold.
Its big boy stuff honesty and trust needed on both sides. If he wants to go and madrid are prepared to pay the asking price then i feel he should be sold its best for all parties imo.


3.) 17 Jul 2019 21:01:46
Haha yes I think you’re the only one, I can’t believe nobody else on here has ever thought to suggest we sell pogba.


 

 

18 Jun 2019 12:47:59
Reports in today's Guardian that Pogba is to be offered a wage of £500,000 per week. The Chief Exec is adamant that he will not be sold because he is commercially important to the club. Oh dear!

Cinderella

1.) 18 Jun 2019 13:12:15
It is most likely the other way round, ed002 mentioned that the club were given terms by pogbas camp for a new contract.


2.) 18 Jun 2019 13:56:40
Juan Mata given a new 3 year contract? if its true then we are going backwards : ( Eds can you confirm?


3.) 18 Jun 2019 14:36:38
I don't think giving Mata a contract is a bad idea at all. He is a class act who all the younger players should look up to. Keeping him around for another couple of years sounds like a good idea. A great role model in the dressing room which is otherwise devoid of class and dedication. It's not as if he is a bad player, or that he will rapidly decline as he doesn't rely on his physicality.


4.) 18 Jun 2019 14:41:12
It’s clear really what’s happening.

Pogba wants out and has spoken publicly about it.

We have then said he’s not for sale and are starting contract talks.

We won’t give him the contract he wants we are just telling clubs he’s not for sale and the only way you will get him is by paying a lot of money.

If we come out and say we’ll if he don’t want to be here then we’ll sell him then clubs instantly come in with bids half his value.


5.) 18 Jun 2019 15:34:13
Gazza
Do you not think other clubs are aware of that?


6.) 18 Jun 2019 16:39:51
Your probably right Gazza its proven practice. Spot on i'd say.


7.) 18 Jun 2019 21:28:26
Lol some one is going to pay 20 or 30 mil extra based on a story that is in the media .
30 million for example yet someone on this site has worked out the scam, and various people from Madrid plus agents etc haven't .
Dear me.


8.) 19 Jun 2019 00:52:46
Agree Gaza

Also, few if any clubs can afford him so, if he does stay, club needs to have at least looked at though they wanted to keep him so he might actually want to play fir the club.

There is just too much money in the game, perhaps because of Sky. Five years ago Rooney was on £250,000 per week and came back after the Summer break a stone overweight and very unfit. Very difficult for lots of working class lads not to be affected by this and to think that money was more important than football.
