IIRC there was interest but he also wanted guarantees re playing time.

United now being linked because of Barca's purported interest in Pogba. That sounds a more likely outcome with player exchanges involved.

Can't see that happening. I'm sure Martial and Pogba would have warned him against a move to play under the Miserable One.

Don't think we can afford him. If he leaves, which I doubt, then one of the rich clubs will pick him up.

The staggered transfer window certainly makes this interesting.

That actually includes us = we are ranked 6th on both the Deloitte's and Forbes listings.
Our revenues are ahead of both CFC and LFC, and are about the same as PSG, and only about 40m behind MC (which is about the amount we are ahead of LFC and CFC).

The difference is in the restraints we place upon ourselves as to how we spend.

ATM it is what I am most 'concerned' about in terms of our financial restraints.
Sell before you buy does not fit the new transfer window structure.

Hopefully the Pogba situation ends up working in our favour with Ramsey moving to United, Pogba to Barcelona and Dembele to us.

You know, in a sense i wouldnt even mind that.

Currently we have one "CAM" too much, in Ramsey, Özil and Miki. We seem to want to field them all, behind Auba. I would rather we move Özil to actual "10", Miki as right interior where Özil has been playing so far and Dembouz as LW, where Auba was tried a little bit this pre-season.

Doubt all of this can be arranged during the next 2 days though.

This one feels dead - think we have missed our window.

I think we should pay the £100+ million Barca are reportedly looking for. It's a lot of cash, but it's not like we've got anything better to do with it. The new sponsor deal with Adidas will give us a lot more money starting next season so maybe we can be a bit proactive here. Perhaps a loan with an obligation to buy next summer could be sorted out. Half of the money now, half then?

awooga83

Doesn't seem like there's much push for him to leave and I can't see us stumping up that kind of cash.

Ornstein tweet at about 8.30 tonight saying Arsenal tried to get a deal over the line, but ultimately there wasn't enough time.

lorddulaarsenal

We are leaving it late so Barca get their Pogba cash late so when they buy Pogba United will have timed out on their chance to get a replacement

Have some faith, trust in Raul Sanllehi and his dodgy Catalan connections

goon

Kike is a false god. The one true ITK laying the smackdown.
