    I'd probably take just the swap to get the **** out of the door to be honest.

    I thought Pogba had started turning up for Ole?

    His stats improved drastically

    You'd be utterly bonkers to let him go.

    Agreed he's only shown glimpses of the player he is because of the managers.

    He is an extremely intelligent footballer, great vision and as close to Scholes in his latter years as we could hope for. It would be a terrible loss if he left.

    I don’tthink Los Ladrones would give you Varane and Kroos for Pogba, let alone an extra £80m

    Pretty sure they would. You're forgetting the financial pull he brings, the thing Real want more than anything (including trophies) is to be seen as the biggest club in the world.

    I'm not interested in stats, the bloke is an utter twat.

    He's also culpable in the Mourinho saga, probably equally with Mourinho himself.

    I wouldn't bat an eye if he was sold.

    Herrera, the absolute opposite.

    But then, we've a star struck knobhead who's only interested in the commercial side of the players he signs, in charge of our transfer and contract purse strings.

    They’d snap our hands off for that deal. He’s a cash cow.

    I’m probably being naive, but why? Africa?

    Well Adidas handed us an £800m contract and part of the conditions were to retrieve Pogba. Commercially he’s as big as you get nowadays in football, which obviously has its benefits for him directly but also for us as a club. The Glazers wouldn’t have bought him otherwise.

    Matth's wummery embodies everything HIAG wishes his was. Simple one liners that are so obvious most don't even see it.

    The kid, not that he’s a kid any more, doesn’t know what day it is. He’s spun some bollocks to garner sympathy but really he’s just an attention-seeker and more than a bit mental.














    And Matth isn’t much better.
