Haha, yeah, it's called having a massive chequebook and willingness to overpay.

Oh I'm not disagreeing. Just this idea that it's some kind of club-related mystique that allows for it is completely naive.

and nobody has said that. Woodwards statement is all about the chequebook and the willingness to overpay, nobody is going to question that.

Why did I just get a Score alert that the Pogba deal isnt done? Says Raiola nixed the deal?

Maybe he thinks he can squeeze United for a few more million?

Swansea City just got sold to US investors for £110M. According to TheScore.

lol that's worse than Sun level "journalism".

Raiola simply tweeted that nothing is done. He said the same thing about Ibrahimovic a day or two before he signed lol. Raiola loves that kind of stuff ... he basically talks up deals all year, and then when they really are close, he denies everything. Sooo ... nothing to see here. And given that his agent fee is, according to various reports, the only thing that holds up the deal, "nothing is done" is technically right at this moment I guess.

Hey man, if you've got a beef take it up with the Score.

I don't have a beef lol. And I believe I don't even know what "The Score" is but if they really took Raiolas tweet and said he "nixed the deal", then I believe I'm not missing out on anything

You're welcome.

Anyways, I was just repeating what was on the Score alert and its probably nothing more than posturing or going for more money, I have little doubt that Pogba will be in a United jersey in fairly short order.

Diamond allows the team to play a Mourinho defensive system, with a strong middle. Shaw & Valencia will provide the overlapping width.

Rashford can sub in for either Rooney or Ibby.

I was really confused. There are a few words in Polish (and other eastern European languages) for which that would be an appropriate censored version. Thought Polak posted it at first.

Welsh Xavi would be a good fit for all the actual former Barca players at Stoke
