Loads of talk now that the Pogba deal will be finally announced in coming few hours so we will have to just wait and see lol

It looks like Madrid refuse to pay the asking price.

What a day to be alive!

So 9 players have been shown the exit according to the press. I must say i thought Borthwick Jackson was rather impressive last year and that is harsh if true. I do feel £100 million is too much for Pogba and United as a club are beginning to look a bit desperate. Then again if Ferguson would have done the right thing first time around we wouldnt be having this debate.

Didn't Borthwick Jackson just sign a new contract? If so just paper BS.

Think the report suggested he's not in Mourinho's plans for this season, which could mean he's being shipped out on loan. Might do him good.

Leaves us short at left-back, though. Especially if Shaw doesn't hit the ground running.

Plenty of rumours abound prior to today that CBJ would be loaned. He did well last year, but could do with a run at senior level this year, highly unlikely with Shaw back (as long as he can be injury free).

I'd have him in the side ahead of Rojo or Young. If that was the case, he'd get plenty of games.

If there is anything in it then I'm hoping that Fosu-Mensah and Borthwick-Jackson are just loans to get them much needed first team experience. I'm sure Mourinho has already namechecked the former as one that he likes the look of.

No surprises that the likes of Keane, Januzaj, McNair etc will be going, and it seems that Schweinsteiger is headed for the exit too.

Can't say that I'd be too gutted to see Schweinsteiger given the boot.

Shame that we couldn't have got him 5 years ago.

It would be such a shame if B-Jackson is sold, much rather we kept him, or loaned him out until Jan, then we can see where we lie in terms of squad depth on his side.

Schweinsteiger leaving would be a sham, but if (or when) Pogba signs, there really isn't a place for him,and with his wages he should be sold, no point keeping someone like that here, if we are not going to play him that often.

Rojo yes, but I think Young still has things to offer us, although not really as a fullback, he is far better as an attacking player.

If you had said after the delayed Bournemouth game, that before the start of August, we would have made four signings of the calibre of Ibra, Mikatarayn, Bailly and Pogba, I really would not have believed you, but if this does turn out to be the case, then what a summer!!

Well, yes. I was talking specifically about the left-back position.

That said, I'm not sure how much Young has left to offer, full-stop. If we got a half-decent offer for him, I'd be inclined to sell.

It might be hard this season for him to get many games, but if he were to be involved, I would have confidence in him to do well, I still think he has the game to impress when needed.

He is a good option to have in the squad, so I wouldn't sell, unless the deal was too good to turn down.

Anything above £8m is too good to turn down.

Rojo and Blind can do a job there. Young too if we get really desperate.

Interestingly, with his talk of preferring specialists, I would have thought he'd of seen CBJ as a better back up option than a jack of all trades like Blind. Suppose the squad needs serious trimming though, and Blind is more useful and a better bet to perform when called upon.

Today is the day apparently we sign Pogba, nothing on the MUTV schedule so far though to indicate it though, hopefully that will change pretty quickly!

Thought we were just going to 'wait and see'?

Why what do they do? I don't bother with MUTV so I don't know the set up.

I presume the schedule indicates a new signing:

1:00pm - Ask Paddy Crerand
2:00pm - United U18 v Sunderland U18 2003
3:00pm - Best of United Christmas Parties
4:00pm - Welcome to Manchester United Lionel Messi
5:00pm - Eric Djemba-Djemba - The Best Bits
6:00pm - Chest Control Masterclass with Marouanne Fellaini

Excellent!

I thought we had a cookery programme? I think Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke presented it - something about the perfect roasting.

But there is no way the 5 o'clock program last an hour

I'm pretty hissed off TBH. Talksport were practically wetting themselves confirming it as a done deal (yes, I know, I know) by early evening yesterday. Even though they're rubbish, I thought I'd wake up today to confirmation from other sources. No such luck.

Oh well, happy with at least seven of the nine Jose wants to go. Like most, want him to keep both defenders.


Followed by a Ryan Giggs masterclass on stuffing fowl that someone else has already spent ages cooking.

I'm here all season.

United Mr & Mrs with the Rooneys, Giggss and Martials.
