But it is true. He's in double figures for goals and assists this season and has been playing to a high level at a time when very few have played well.

And what we pay him doesn't really matter to other clubs. It's what we think he's worth is what matters. I'm sure every other team in the league would rather we sold him because he's still a very good player. If we sell him we weaken ourselves and then have to go through the process of replacing him. It's not worth the hassle.

Plenty of players are in double figures for goals and assists if added together. He has 9 league goals this season. Likely 20 players have that low threshold of goals and assists. It's no reason to pay him 300K per week.

He won't get much better, he's taking up 3 spots on the team with the wage. You might as well sell him and look to the future. Instead, he's kind of bent the team over thanks to a very bad spot they are in (looking to be seen as able to keep their players).

XI: Buffon Caceres, Bonucci, Ogbonna, Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Marchisio, Asamoah, Giovinco, Llorente

YIKES

we always concede without Chiellini and/or Barzagli.

8 goals in the last 6 matches, iirc. And most of them were easily avoidable. Conte was right to go hairdryer on the lads. You have one fucking job. I don't to hear Bonucci talk about how "we need to be more concentrated". You're paid fucking millions to be concentrated 90 minutes per week. Be fucking concentrated.

 

[everthustodeadbeats]

Remember konchesky?

Hahaha, some amazing times them. I would laugh more but then I remember some cunt thought it would be hilarious to make him England manager.

Yeah, remember Konchesky and Poulsen. Those were some very dark days. I can't believe the consensus pick after Redknapp was Hodgson.

He ask Kagawa to drop a dead!
Nasty bastard. I only asking!

La Stampa: Pogba was the main target of Conte's outburst on Monday after the coach thought that the young Frenchman was becoming complacent

La Stampa also says that Pogba was shaken by Conte's outburst & it even led him to call up his agent.

Well yeah, that's the argument most United fans have had for the last 18 months re:Rooney. If it were up to most on here we'd sell him, move Mata behind the striker and use the saved wages to strengthen other areas of the team. But right now he's performing well in an underperforming team. We can't afford yo let him go. And even if we did we'd still take a hit because he's playing at a good level. We'd be looking at a £40-50m player just to replace him.

With so many players leaving we'll have a fair wedge in cash available to go to new players wages. It also looks like we finally have a lot of money to spend this summer too. If we're going to rebuild the team then we'd be better off with an established performer in Rooney than without.

Let do this Everton

Rosenberg had it coming.

Poulsen had to come on tv and apologize to the whole country after that lol

Is that Agger pussying out and trying to block the free kick with his back?

*nods*

It could be all media bullshit, obviously, but I can see it. Pogba has been complacent lately. Either that or he needed a rest, which he is getting today. Apparently Raiola sided with Conte on this one, lol. Yeah, sounds made up, honestly, all of it. We'll see what Conte has to say about it after the match.

I can see that side of the argument. I'm not 'concern trolling', I really do believe that it's a mistake to keep him at that wage. I doubt a Chelsea or anyone would pay him that wage. It's like they've negotiated against themselves.

But I can that side of the argument where you want some stability and an extra 100K per week is worth it.

Damn, I may actually root on Everton today? With Martinez there and their playing of attractive football, I can almost like them.

 

[Zabojnik]

No Pogba?

We need him at full power for Juventus - Trabzonspor.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

LOL SWANSEA

what a pile of shite

 

[KidA Seven]

How did he not score? Swansea...

 

[Blablurn]

that escalated quickly for everton

 

[Clegg]

Fuck sake, Swansea.


How don't you score from that?

 

[Yurt]

It could be BS Zabster, but from La Stampa!?

No Pogba?

It's mostly a B team.


Fuck him anyway. If he can't take constructive criticism he better fuck off somewhere else.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

In the shade the clashing isn't that bad but when they're in direct sunlight holy crap. Who thought that this was a good idea? Do they need to ramp up the away kit sales?

Great goal.

LOL SWANSEA

clear the ball you stupidheads

 

[Blablurn]

Traore!

What a cheeky finish by Traore! Backheel.

 

[Lambda Pie]

EVERTON!!! so much better than their neighbours.

I've got an idea.

Lazio you useless cunts pls, get Catania relegated.

fuck off lazio you fucking wankstains.

 

[Clegg]

Lol of course.

That's dire from Swansea.

 

[Yen]

Shambles

 

[The_Hitcher89]

EVERTON!!! so much better than their neighbours.

We were already 6-0 up against Arsenal at this point

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

what's up with the pink ball

But Arsenal couldn't beat Moyes Boys and Swansea defeated Moyes boys in the FA Cup.

Berardi FC XI: 3-4-3 Pegolo; Antei, Cannavaro, Ariaudo; Gazzola, Marrone, Brighi, Longhi; Berardi, Floro Flores, Sansone

3-4-3? That could work!

I've got an idea.

taking him back is going to weaken your club's image though


I want you to have Marchisio <3

 

[Walshy]

That was some of the worst defending I've seen this season from Swansea there.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

It's mango you tit

Eh, they've been known to write trash about us, even if they're supposedly 'il giornale di famiglia'. In either case, Conte was perfectly justified. That's his job, ffs. And if Pogba can't handle it ... there's the door. We'll take 70M€, thank you very much.

Again, I'm sure it's just journo drama.

 

[Fergie]

It was 5/1 for Traore to score first.

LOOL.

 

[KidA Seven]

We still have an image?

Moyes has made us a joke

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Fuck off

I'm colourblind.

Mango isn't even a colour, it's a fruit.

Mirallas over running the ball KLAXON

Cannavaro starting against his boyhood club Napoli. He was their former captain a couple of months ago. Feels bad.

Feels funny too.

is it bad that I want the 70M more than him?

think of the possibilities


we can buy Atalanta's whole team!
