    I always thought Ferguson didn't rate him/like his attitude so he got rid.

    He rated him definitely, maybe his attitude was questionable. Who Fergie hates was his agent, Mino Raiola, still hates him, coincidentally though all of our signings this summer have had the same agent... Mino Raiola.

    This is the bit that makes me gutted more than any of the money/falling out, Fergie rated Ravel Morrison much higher than any other kid in that youth side, the kid was magic, he had everything but he was just that ****ing stupid that he couldn't see how good he was and his attitude went to ****. He's ruined it all, probably due to who he surrounds himself with off the pitch.

    Their contract situation was the same.

    You lost him despite trying to keep him, same for us, although I doubt you'd buy him back for £85m <laugh>

    Manchester United have reportedly had a bid for Paul Pogba rejected
    Manchester United have had an £85m bid for Paul Pogba rejected by Juventus, according to Sky in Italy.

    United had the offer turned down on Tuesday but have reportedly been told by the Italian champions that a world-record transfer fee in excess of £100m for the France midfielder would be accepted.

    I like this lad a lot, a bit like Younis, and can also cover a full back position, we could use Bridcut as a tempter.

    I'm sure it would!

    £86m is also a world record fee in sterling.

    Offer them 86 and if they turn it down tell them to get ****ed, keep your player on £100k a week who was gonna move for £300k a week, see how long it is before he kicks off.

    A good buy at least 2-3 seasons ago now a journeyman wanting a final payout - avoid these players or regress as a club

    I forgot, If a club owner has separate business interests you can't incur costs. It was all magically free. And Gibson owns airlines! Ta for reminding me. I must have looked like some kind of idiot<doh>

    Sunderland are reportedly set to offer Aston Villa defender Micah Richards an immediate return to the Premier League.

    The Telegraph report that the Black Cats are poised to activate Richards’ release clause which is thought to stand at around £5million.

    However, any proposed move could be delayed by the uncertainty surrounding the future of Sunderland boss Sam Allardyce who was interviewed for the England job last week.

    28-year-old Richards joined Villa on a free transfer from Manchester City in 2015 and played 29 times last season.
