Well, this season is shaping up to be the most intense in PL history. So excited!

The last paragraph is a bit misleading. Man U have broken the world transfer record for a player who most wouldn't put on the same planet as the likes of Messi, Suarez, Neymar, Iniesta, Ronaldo, Bale, Hummels or Lewandowski. He's a good player who had a patchy Euros.

The very best players still don't come to England. The very best ones like Bale and Ronaldo leave the Premiership.

Imo Pogba isn't worth a/€105M, b/ Man U having to swallow their pride and ask Pogba and his agent if he please could consider coming back to the club.

Pogba has always been a bit of a dilettante, the kind of player who gets frustrated when he loses the ball and expects his teammates to get it back for him, even Deschamps decided to bench him after the first euro game (bit like Ibra although its more acceptable from a striker than a midfielder). Don't think Mourinho will tolerate passengers though.

Aw, looks like the Man U 'supporters' on this site are throwing their rattles out of their prams.

My Man U supporting mates, people who learned gallows humour at Old Trafford ( that's a stadium near Manchester in the UK ) in the eighties, also think this is a crazy amount of money for Pogba. One pointed out the difficulty in justifying why Pogba is worth three times as much as Kante. A good question.

Yep! But we all know Sir Alex was/is 'untouchable' and Man U fans see our criticism of Pogback as a direct attack on him. Pretty sure he would not have brought Pogba back (at this $) if he was still in charge though.
