No it isn't. His matter treatment has and will always be worst. Basti is fine, guy is ancient, injury prone and lasted around 90 minutes in a 50 game season last campaign. Why on earth would you want that taking up a place in your squad allowance? Mata he gives him false hope he will be used, brings him on as sub then subs him 15 minutes later, thats gotta hurt. Plus at Chelsea he did similar things where he benched him and told him to work on his defensive plays to then just boot him out anyway.



I hope i can make the difference clear. Im not that fluent in english so i hoe you can bear with me.


I tell u you are no longer alowed to write on TL or do anything connected to it.



The head of the staff of TL is telling you kindly that you are no longer needed in the team and you should try to find another thing to do.

The difference is who is telling you to get the fuck out and how he says it.

It is utterly disrepectful behaviour as he acts with a lot of his players he does not like, and its far from professional.

Man I almost reported you for that. I had to re-read like 3 times, well played :D


I am sorry, could have divided it better but oh well what can you do.

Edit: Dont know where my quotation went anyway lets forget that^^

Wasn't Arsenal's main goal this off season to sign a forward...

Pogba is worth the money. His first touch, ball control etc is top class. He had a meh season and euros, but I'm certain he will shine for man u.

Arsenal want to sign either Jonny Evans or Valencia's Shkodran Mustafi in time for Sunday's Premier League opener against Liverpool.

eehhh.... how that sounded in my brain.

"Dude is top class.. didnt play so well. Worth being the most expensive player in history."

Its a stupid amount of money. And please if someone is going to tell me again that shirt sales are going to pay for it.. justtt dont..

But the market is the market so I guess you just have to deal with it. If you wana pay good for you.

It is big money, no doubt. Guy is class but i don't think he is going to revolutionize the team for that amount. Signing a striker who scores you 25 goals a season for that kind of money is "ok" or at least you can see the difference. I don't see Pogba being that, not saying he wont show glimpses of greatness but he aint gonna get 15 assists and 15 goals this season thats for sure.

The man is 23 and cost 100 million pounds. One bad season is a lot.

Transfer prices are getting retarded and losing all sense of reality. It's turning me off from football. The argument that it's the market isn't very convincing. Football is a monopoly by FIFA. There's no market to speak of.

This is club football though. Not sure how much FIFA matters in how clubs are choosing to spend their resources.

Tbh its their money they can be stupid with it if they want.

I mean, you cant really argue against pogba price when Juventus paid more or less the same for a 29 year old player that is fat as ronaldo was when he was nearing retirement age.

that doesn't make any sense. The market is the multitude of teams and countries that the player could go to and be sold to. FIFA is just a regulating body they don't control the leagues directly. If the UK wanted to switch to an MLS style where they wanted parity in the league FIFA couldn't really stop them from doing it.

I just realized Higuain costs more than Neymar and Suarez. Lol I would like some of what the Juventus board is smoking.

But the shirt sale will make up for the absurd excess if you think about it.....

In all seriousness, I think Utd did pay a lot for making a statement to the world that they can still get any top player that they want, and they have the pocket for it. Is Pogba's ability and recent performance really worth that much money? Perhaps not. But again a transfer deal comprises of other factors rather than the player's ability itself. It's like paying for a luxury sport car while anything on four wheels would probably take from from A to B anyway.

Only time will tell though. But one thing for certain, in the end they're all businessmen and they wouldn't spend an absurd amount of money if it weren't likely to yield.

We can't compare to 2-3 years ago. Everyone knows Pogba isn't the best player in the world. Prices have just gone up. And every time this has happened, people are going: "Now it's really getting ridiculous". I think it's going continue as China start to get into football now.
