hi guys just wondering what your thoughts on the pogba situation is as I feel we are likely the only possible place he will go most can't see it happening but if hazard leaves we would be looking to replace him with a big name obviously it's not a like for like replacement but certainly a big name.

In such a situation I will rather we went for Milinkovic Savic than go for Pogba.

I would definitely love to see him play for us, I was excited at the prospect of signing him before he joined United and I'm surprised that Jose wants to get rid of him. His talent is there for all to see and next to Kante and Jorginho he would be unbelievably good as he'll have the freedom to get forward and make bursting runs.

Under a different manager than Mourinho I’m sure he’d be one of the best but I was shocked as too how bad some of his performances were. To me he seems to wrapped up in the lifestyle and his football at times shows this. I’m more confident hazard will stay but with Rugani, Higuain and now pjanic all possible, that money needs to be raised somehow and I only hope it’s not from edens sale. Hazard, Kante and Azpilicueta are the new untouchables for me.

i wouldn't be dissapointed if we signed pogba an got rid of drinkwater an fabregas.

It's almost confirmed now that Barcelona have turned their attention from Willian and they are about to sign Malcom from Bordeaux.

24 Jul 2018 13:37:26
All I'm seeing is that Roma have agreed the fee and the deal will be completed soon. Guess we'll find out over the coming days.

24 Jul 2018 14:07:37
Sky Italy (DiMarzio) is my source. Saim, I pray Barcelona buys Willian and not Malcom. I want Willian gone so that Chelsea can bring in a new winger.

24 Jul 2018 15:19:20
You sure hazard will stay then? Because if he does go and we sell willan we are going to be in real trouble. Signing two new starting wingers this close to the start of the season is ridiculous. Hudson-Odoi looks great but going to need a little time to start week in week out and Pedro just ain’t good enough.

Sorry mate does look like you're right! Roma must be annoyed lol.

24 Jul 2018 23:48:36
Ed018, have Barcelona ended their persuit of willian?

{Ed018's Note - I would think so after signing Malcom}

This would be my team for Huddersfield Away. The only one maybe not realistic at this time would be Bailey. Hopefully we can move Willian, Drinkwater, Courtois and even Morata on by then. I'd like to see Cesc moved on he's just not mobile enough in any formation for me it's like playing with ten men when his passing games off get a fee for him now while we can. Rugani should come in but won't be an automatic starter, I think Zouma will be moved on. Id use Luiz as a CM.

4-3-3:

Schmeichel

Azpi
Christensen
Rudiger
Emerson

Barkley
Jorginho
Kante

Bailey
Higuain
Hazard

Subs:

Caballero
Rugani
Luiz
Loftus-Cheek
Pedro
Hudson-Odoi
Batshuayi/ Giroud

Res

Bulka
Zappacosta
Cahill
Alonso
Ampadu.

Batsuayi needs to play. Higuain too old.

24 Jul 2018 14:00:59
Where is golovin? because the deal is as good as done! Bailey is one player she should get by all means he’s going to be to us what sane is to city and even better.

24 Jul 2018 14:10:36
Wow 6 dislikes! Wonder why 🤣 must be the same couple of posters who dislike mine on purpose because I’m opinionated.

24 Jul 2018 15:44:32
Tough to get everyone to agree on a squad selection KingFrank. Only takes one selection people disagree on and it's a dislike rather than a like.

Try not to worry about likes and dislikes, at least both make people have an opinion/ conversation about what you're saying.

I would be more than happy going into the new season with that team.

24 Jul 2018 21:20:11
Alonso as a reserve 😂😂😂.
