Of the rumors concerning Bonucci and Pogba, I find the ones on Bonucci especially hard to believe. He doesn't strike me as a player who would want to leave. Also, I think part of the reason why Bonucci is what Bonucci is is partly due to Barzagli and Chiellini as well as the rest of the Juve team. He may not be the same Bonucci if he plays in a back 4 at City. Mark my words on that.

On Pogba. I still don't think he would go to United. Real Madrid or Barcelona are far more likely destinations. The English media machine is so confident that Man U always gets their man especially if its from a non Barca, Madrid or Bayern team.

We are going to have to endure this non-stop BS until the last hour of the transfer window.

Also worth keeping an eye on Gomes. If Real succeed in getting him, then I doubt they would go for both him and Pogba in the same transfer window and Barca up to this point at least has not been linked with Pogba. Most Barca ever paid for a player was Suarez if I am not mistaken and that was EU80m - I don't see them bidding 120m for Pogba.
I can't see Madrid even attempting a move for Pogba till they sell, even if they sign Gomes they will still need to sell the likes of isco and James who sit on the fringes of the side to even make the Pogba move remotely realistic. Hell but this is RM we're talking about here, more money than sense

So Pogba & Bonucci are out? whats with this 180m for Pogba? 60m for bonucci?
I will lose it if we sell Bonucci. Pogba I can live with since he always seemed to have one foot ready to leave, despite saying he loves Juve, it is almost understood universally that he could leave at any time. Pogba I am only satisfied with if we bring in good replacements. My dream would be James & Verratti to replace, but that is impossible, particularly Verratti.

Agree. We won't go far with Mandzukic as our CF in the CL.

Need a modern forward, someone capable of dribbling, shooting from outside the area, giving a decisive pass, someone who doesn't rely on service to score..

If we do sell Pogba, we need to bring Higuain. If we lose a game changer like Pogba we need to bring in a game changer like Higuain. Higuain carried Napoli this last season.

I honestly even think we could be better with Higuain on the team. Pogba out, Pjanic and Higuain in = a better Juve

Pogba is our galactico. We cannot let him go because we need to show we are back in the big boys league.

Ok so we desperately need a forward Barbosa Jesus are options Diego Costa I`m not for him but he seems to me like our type of signing
Balotelli - He is powerful when he is good like when he played at Milan but when he being stupid which is most of the time he is a real liability so pass on him...
Lukaku has been mentioned before but he is poor but his finishing skills

I think the story lies in the middle. Fact is every player has a price and if utd are desperate and willing to pay 160+ (IMO) then we shouldnt reject. We sold Zidane, replaced him with 3 WC players and then reached the CL final, two seasons later. We remained a top dog, we didnt decline.

That said im more than happy if he stayed and yes it does show we are not a selling club.

No matter what happens though, if he leaves then we must suck as much money out of utd as possible. Sadly this is where i have to criticize our beppe. His awesome at buying, one of a kind but not always the best when it comes to selling.

So lets not feel down and see this as a win-win situation for us. If he stays, we win. If he goes for an X sum, we win
