Hi Ed, if Pogba has been identified as the player we need to improve the midfield, I'd imagine we have alternatives if the deal doesn't happen, IMO we are lacking in the middle, is there any other targets should Pogba not happen?
{Ed018's Note - it's been mentioned that they have alternatives but I'm not sure who as of right now}

Is there any update on the Pogba deal Ed018? Mixed reports in the media. Really hoping we can get this through.

I do not wish we pay €120m for Pogba. We could 3 good players for that amount. Our scouts only need to work better.

I'd rather spend it on pogba. Mouthwatering midfield of pogba, matic, fabregas. It has everything. Hazard costa pedro in front.

Witsel is only alternative that makes sense. Pogba would be absolutely the best long-term signing.

In today's market you have to pay top dollar for a player of pogbas quality. He has everything you want in a midfield player. He could be a very valuable asset to the club in both financial and football terms. He is still young so let's say with player prices going higher and higher we purchased him at £80m then he plays 3 seasons and real or barca come calling(like they do) and he wants to leave, then given his age you could still probably get back what the club paid for him. Obviously I would not wish for him to move on if purchased but real and barca have a power over the rest of world football we can only dream of. It's a long shot but pogba is the best young midfielder out there and for us to have two of the worlds best youngsters in hazard and possibly pogba, that would be amazing.

Pogba is still very young and will certainly prove a lot as I still believe he isn't near the finished article; but in a market where St£rling is worth 49m and stones 35m and an 18 year old Patrick Roberts with 2 prem appearances worth 18m then pogba is worth a whole lot more. People need to remember that just like stones and st£rling pogbas price tag is based on potential.

Guys I actually think that if Pogba is not feasible we should consider Koke as an immediate resolutn, at least 75% of the evaluation can be put into him, with can get the ability of a matic and a Fabregas from on player. also we end up geting a good freekick taker aswell
My Suggestion would be that we chase Pogba till like friday and if its not possible we offer Ramires to Athletico with 40m and let's see if they won't accept the deal

Is Gomez and Koke the back ups
