The only player that so far was not overpriced seems to be Ibra, what a coup he could turn out to be on a free transfer!
![]() With all the talk about Pogba, many United fans seem to have forgotten that they have already just signed the greatest centre-forward of the 21st century and a man who has a better career goals per game ratio than Lionel Messi. I'm not saying people shouldn't get excited about Pogba but for me the signing of the season will still be Zlatan Ibrahimovic. |

I honestly believe that as long as José builds the forward line around Zlatan enough, Zlatan could go for the golden boot this season. Prem defences just won't be able to deal with him I don't think.

I wouldn't be too surprised if he does very well in the Europa League, he surely has to be one of the favourites for the top scorer in that tournament. |

He doesn't have a better goals ratio than Messi. It's not even particularly close having now checked

You talk the truth my friend, he is a wonderful player, and with the players we have got around him (Martial, Mikatarayn, erc etc) we could see him doing very this season.
I wouldn't be too surprised if he does very well in the Europa League, he surely has to be one of the favourites for the top scorer in that tournament. I also think that Zlatan and Paul may end up complimenting each other, and if I was Ibrahimovic there are few midfielders I would rather have creating chances for me than Paul Pogba. I also think Pogba can learn and grow as a player from a legend like Ibrahimovic. Quote:

José has said that tomorrow Jones and Bailly will be our centre-back pairing, hopefully Jones comes through without any set-backs, as he has had far too many of them in recent times.

it's still a hell of a lot of money for someone who you wouldn't class as 'world class', not yet anyway.

Agreed. It's like people saying that Messi/Ronaldo etc are overrated. It's just nonsense that can't be taken seriously.

If he is in your words amazing how can he be over rated?

Anyways here's what I think. Pogba probably wants to come to Real but they are not willing to agree the price tag that his agent is setting. Man U seems determined to have him at all costs so I think that he'll eventually go there. I'm interested to see how this transfer saga ends up.

Apparently the City match could be in danger of being called off due to the terrible rains that they have been experiencing over there in Beijing.

Forgot to add that Madrid still have the transfer ban hanging over them like Barcelona did a season or 2 ago. I still can't see him joining us, but that could just be a case of me not getting my hopes up only to see them dashed when he signs a new contract. |

Who would you say would be above us in terms of being favourites? Chelsea? Spurs? City?
Pogba for me solves a fair few problems that we have been lacking, so him coming here would create a potentially very good midfield. Who else would you say would we be in the mix with?? Much as I rate Pogba, I can only see him solving one problem. A fit and firing Schneiderlinand and Miki would solve the others - but we need back-up for them as well. Quote:
John Stones ? No thanks. Certainly don't think he deserves the hype.

I reckon Matuidi is the backup target if Pogba doesn't happen.

That's a huge statement by Jose. Hopefully he plays him in the right position as well. |

He may have wanted to go there that's true. I think he will eventually end up at Madrid. If he stayed at juvenile he wouldn't join Madrid next season it woukd probably be the year after that.

It is so rare here ![]() BIB Althetico de Madrid as well. I personally dont think we need him . I would rather see the club spend money buying another midfielder. Yes we have Kroos and Modric but I am still not 100% sold on James . I am curious to see how Mourinho will manage this Man U team; very curious so I will be following the EPL closely in the upcoming months . |

José has said that there might be two more signings to com, so Pogba and another hopefully, that would certainly show that we mean business.

Should be good to see the team in action today, Dortmund will be a very tricky test for us, hopefully we can escape with no injuries, and can continue to add on to the very promising performance from the Wigan game.

Just seen in another thread someone refer to to British armed forces as 'murderers'. I know it's OT but between idiocy like that and the scary cultist following of people like Trump and Corbyn you wonder whether or not the zika virus has spread further than we think and has started affecting IQs.
Season can't start soon enough, the world's gone mad. |
