First if Pogba wants to go for money at a lesser club instead of trying to prove himself as a top player at utd where money would come anyway then goodbye utd never needed that sort! Some make me laugh knocking at Modric over 1 game vs utd,bloke is top quality,Football as changed the hard hitting tacklers like keane under the way it is now with tackles have to be replaced with footballing midfielders as Barca now show,if we could somehow get the money for Modric&RVP then hopefully that would mean it no.21 at end of next season

Back from yesterdays game and talk amongst our support was how easy Spurs went through our midfield. THese were the kind of games that made Scholes feel like he needed to retire and none of us disagreed. Most managers have sussed out United's one tactic of sitting back and trying to catch teams on the break. It works if you have pace but with Nani and Young we have wingers who want to come inside. Only Tony V offers a threat of pace and power. Have you noticed how every team now pushes up on our midfield as they know that we don't have a midfielder to run through Scholes and Carrick stop at the half way line and pass sideways. Do you know that no team in the Premiership has passed the ball backwards as much as us. It is very frustrating when we get the ball and get up to the halfway line only to see it passed all the way back to DDG who hoofs it up the pitch. We do have a player who could fill that role but it looks like he will be joining Juve. Obviously he doesn't have an agent who has an off shore account that certain people at the club can take advantage of. I AM KLOOT

I'm not saying Pogba has sold his soul to Juventus or anything, but if he has does it not just increase our chances of signing a top class midfielder. It might even increase our chances of signing Martinez as Pogba was set to be our midfield general for the next few years - Martinez now may come in and do that job sooner.

I don't think that we should be particularly dissapointed if he leaves as i'm sure SAF will have plans in mind to deal with his loss.

Why would chelsea want Benetiz ? He was a joke at liverpool, FACT, He was a joke at inter, FACT, he will be a joke if he goes to chelsea, FACT, and he will get sacked within 12 months by abramovich, FACT. Id much rather him go back to liverpool when kenny steps down in the summer, because id rather see liverpool fail than chelsea. Either way, Both clubs are in decline.

If reports are true then Pogba has apparantly pledged his future to Juve for 32k a week.... And another one bites the dust, Fryers will be next, then Tunnicliffe then Keane then Brady,etc etc.... Football, as we know it has changed, we can all see that, it is now all about moneyand it seems that whoever spends the most will be the winners. Its a sad reality. Another sad reality is we will now end up buying youth from other teams who are not as good as the youth we are letting go.... HERBIE

anyone else think that with a bit of experience a.v.b could take over? i rate him but he was never going to win the battle in the chelsea dressing room.

The media are so desperate for De Gea to drop a clanger, they're contemplating going into space to get him one. ;)

If i am correct city has to visit arsenal in the league. we have done a massive favour to arsenal. Now arsenal on 49 ,spurs on 53.arsenal must beat city to hunt down spurs. That match should be a cracker for football fans , any arsenal point(s) should be a bonus for the great man united.

It has been pretty clear in the past that SAFs number two was the strong tactician. If you read Gary Neville's book it confirms it. Therefore I was interested to see SAF say how we got the tactics so wrong in the first half

Is this the first realisation that mike phelan isn't up to it?
