Paul Pogba

[BBZ8800]

Iniesta, Rakitic, Turan, Roberto, Rafinha, Denis Suarez.

If we buy Pogba, then only 2 out of 6 players mentioned above can stay and play.
Would you "kill" majority of the guys from above?
Plus, is Pogba really that much better (for our system) than any of cheaper solutions like Iniesta, Rakitic and Arda... (Roberto)?

I wouldn't change any of these 3 for Pogba.
And especially not 2 out of these 3.
And especially not 4 out of these 6 (Iniesta, Raki, Arda, Roberto, Rafinha, Suarez).

Not to mention 100M fee, wages and money to his agent on top of everything.
No thanks.

We could make room for him if he wasn't costing that much (transfer fee + outrageous salary demand).

As long as Real Madrid and Bayern don't get him I am happy.

That's precisely I am hoping to happen. Our biggest rivals spending their budgets on Pogba.

 

[God Serena]

I feel like if Pogba went to Madrid he'd end up like most big money Madrid signings. It might even have the potential of being as entertaining as seeing how much the Madrid fans hate Bale.

Be careful what you wish for ,Pogba after all is a very very good player with the potential to be gr8 . He could very well prove to be gr8 signing for RM if they signed him and will add more talent and youth to an an already many young talented midfielders they have

You know what this reminds me of? Neymar & Suárez's transfer.

I can't believe you guys.

Yup. Just reading the first pages in the old Neymar thread should warn people. People begging Real Madrid etc. to sign him and what not. Imagine if that happened. Too much blind hate here on such a great talented kid.

Yeah, it's quite unbelievable.

Iniesta - turns 32 in a few months
Turan
Rakitic
Roberto - should take over from Alves as RB when he leaves in 1½ years.
Rafinha - Is basically an amatuer compared to Pogba

To be fair, Neymar didn't demand that kind of crazy salary (second only to Messi's), even though he did have a greedy agent like the fat rat.

Santos < Juventus
Campeonato Paulista (3) < Serie A (3)
Copa do Brasil (1) < Coppa Italia (1)
Copa Libertadores (1) < Supercoppa Italiana (2)
Recopa Sudamericana (1) < UEFA Champions League Runners-up (1)

Pogba has way more experience -at a much higher level than Neymar had, when he transfered. I don't find his demands unfair to be honest.

He knows that he is the 2nd best player under the age of 25 and the best under 23.

Barça don't have the money to have all the stars in the world in the squad. Just the bonus for winning the CL are making the club unable to sign nolito for 18m this window. Pogba's a great player, but his wages demands are too much.

 

[Barcaman]

Pogba is not a great player. He could be a star though but that's rather irrelevant.

 

[Yannik]

Marchisio > Pogba

 

[KingMessi]

That gif is unsettling. Just like the film.

 

[Neymessi]

We are really on the edge of our financial border with our wages.Pogba coming here will make it very bad,not to mention he will cost an arm and a leg with a very high salary and an extremely greedy and retarded agent.Also he is not required.Why people used to not want suarez was because there were other areas that needed more upgrade than our front line after our trophyless season and we did not want to exhaust a large part of our transfer budget on him. He was always a better bet than pogba.Same with neymar,he had shown a lot in santos and brazil. Pogba most certainly doesn't match the hype he has or the price tag he carries right now.We already have good options who suit our team better than he would suit us.Don't fix something that is not broken.

 

[iniesta_8]

Zidane is very keen on him I guess
