And to think you let him go for free :lol:

Not much we could do at the time, was young and not getting a game at the time. Probably a dozen kids from every club leave each year and 90% don't go on to have a decent career. Every now and then one goes on to become a gun and we have to wear it. I don't think he is coming back though


Paul Scholes is to blame imo. Coming back after retirement mid season basically took his place and that was the last straw for Pogba.

Definately one of the reasons but he had a bit of an attitude problem at the time aswell, Fergie played Raphael in the midfield for a few games ahead of Pogba until Scholes returned.
Fergie and Pogba's manager had some huge problems also and it's no secret that Juve had been talking to him long before he signed. Hard for a kid not getting a game to turn away a big pay increase. At the time it was probably best for both parties but with hindsight it was a error by us. One might wonder if he had turned out the same if he had stayed with us as he has grown up immensely in Turin

Well the rumours about Vardy leaving were correct but just not to West Ham

Arsenal expected to announce his signing in the next 48 hours

United set to sign Eric Bailly from Villarreal.
£30m seems a bit steep for a young defender but watching him play for the Ivory Coast in the CAN qualifiers recently and he looks pretty solid

Yep that's true enough.
Steve Bruce told he wasn't good enough and released by Burnley
Lee Dixon told he could leave after being released by Burnley

On the other hand, Jay Rod through the ranks cost us nothing, Stephen Flether to Sunderland, Charlie Austin bought from Swindon for buttons, Danny Ings from Bournemouth for buttons. Trever Stevens to Everton for a record fee, Ralph Coates to Spus for record fee, Martin Dobson to Everton........... It's swings and roundabouts and you win some and lose some. For clubs like Burnley as long as we win more than we let slip through.

Seems the Vardy to Arsenal transfer has quietened down a bit. Apparently Leicester have offered a longer deal but Arsenal have offered more money.

They're having a lend of themselves if they expect to get Pogba at that price. A 50% increase on that and they might stand a chance.

Hopefully they get the deal done and we can have a good striker in the side.

Tottenham have held talks with Eredivisie top scorer Vincent Janssen after AZ Alkmaar gave him permission to speak to Spurs, sources have told Sky Sports News HQ.

It is understood the 21-year-old spent Tuesday in London listening to Tottenham's plans for the future and discussing a potential deal to move to White Hart Lane.

Sources say there has not yet been any discussions between the clubs over a transfer fee, but reports in the Netherlands claim the Eredivisie club are asking for around £12m.

Eridivisie standard is way below EPL. Cant't see him forcing his way into their starting 11 too often unless there are injuries to the guns

Victor Wanyama off to Spurs for 11M which seems a good deal for Spurs. Spurs fans will enjoy him teaming up with Dembele to defend the middle of the park.......so long as he can stay on the park.

Sounds like Vardy is going to turn down Woolwich and sign on with Leicester.
