Chelsea must do everything they can to purchase Paul pogba, the lad is a class act. I know we have an interest, I just hope Romans team are pushing hard to seal a deal. I think of we win the league that would go a long way to securing the likes of pogba, similar to the way hazard chose chelsea after winning champions league. I repeat pogba is a must even if oscar needed to be sold to raise funds. I only say oscar as if pogba came in then I don't see a position for oscar to play.
He's been scoring a lot as of late, and some great goals as well. What a player!
Oscar is essential to the team though and the way in which they play. He's also pretty versatile so we shouldn't sell him.
I'm all for Pogba, and have been for a while now. I'd love for the club to get him, however expensive he may turn out. But I fear we'll be blown out of the water by United, Madrid or PSG for his services. Even if we win the league this season. It's going to be a sad day when he ends up at one of our rivals.
Just saw his involvement in the 2nd goal during today's game. The guy's freakishly talented, my god. Why o why didn't we get him when he left United.
Jackson - he turned us down. sometimes you can't always get a player just because you want him.
I know, Steve (didn't actually know that he turned us down, but I know you can't get every player). He's just ridiculously talented and scoring some crackers this season. He'd fit in fantastically.
Back to reality though, let's get RLC some game time and let's develop him into a world beater :)
{Ed002's Note - Actually Manchester United rejected a cash offer from Chelsea for the player 6 months before he left.}
Damn, now I hate United even more!
Cheers Ed :)
I see us as a realistic option for pogba, Madrid cannot just buy everyone. As far as I'm concerned whoever signs for PSG is throwing their career away as the French league is so poor, it's just a league which produces players for top leagues. Barca transfer ban, city somehow seem to be able to bend FFP rules but would still need to sell at least one of there top players. UTD are not the team they once where, so maybe chelsea could be his destination.
We can all hope
{Ed002's Note - Chelsea remain keen on Paul Pogba and would like to strike a deal for next summer - and this will most likely be a cash plus player offer in the first instance. Although Real Madrid moved on from their previous interest, there is every chance of a summer offer including players in part exchange. With Barcelona unable to sign players before 2016 and PSG and Manchester City in a difficult situation with UEFA and subject to financial sanctions, that effectively only leaves Manchester United and Bayern Munich as potential suiters. Although there are those at Manchester United who would like to push for a deal there is some reticence still and there is another issue that would need to be overome. However, I would not discount both PSG and Manchester City selling players to raise the funds for a Pogba bid.}
Ed has stated that on here how United didn't want him to join us. No matter how you look at it united would always be hated by most, for what ever reason for me they fortified it when I read that Pogba could have come but they turned it down cause we are in the same league yet we sold mata to them and the goo s sold van persie. I came to the conclusion that I would forever hate man utd. Douche bags. Thanks for the work on the site Ed. :)
This might be me being a negative Nancy, but I suspect he'll end up at United. His agent recently spoke about Pogba still holding United in high esteem etc and that kinda makes me believe that he'll go back there. They also have crazy financial power so they'd be my guess.

It's an interesting one for sure. United and us have quite a bit of cash to be able to spend. I wouldn't rule out PSG though as they could offer the like of Cavani, veratti, and Marquinhos depending on how desperate they are. Madrid are also looking to move on the likes of benzema, Isco, and khedira. It really just depends on what Juve are looking for in return as there will be a ton of options.
I think the way he's playing at the moment it's going to cost someone £60-£80m
