Pogba ‘ticks all the boxes’ for Man United: Arsenal coach Wenger

Indeed, where Sir Alex Ferguson once preferred to select Rafael or an already-retired Paul Scholes ahead of the Frenchman, Jose Mourinho will place him at the centre of a team aiming to contend for the Premier League title this term.

Plus, with José Mourinho now at the helm United represent an attractive project that will see him take centre stage, with the likelihood that the club will build a team around him in years to come. Even with all these stars on Leicester, the big clubs will be aiming to take down Leicester this year and their goal should just be to qualify for Champions League again. First there is the fact that Pogba would have been joining a club who are facing the probability of a one-year transfer ban. He led the Foxes to their first English top-flight title as they stunned the Premier League’s established elite. I think I can do well here.

“He changed world football”. De Gea then went on to sign a new four-year deal with Manchester United, BBC Sport’s documented.

Manchester United are hoping Paul Pogba’s acquisition for a world-record £89.3m represents the beginnings of a power shift whereby they no longer have to accept that the world’s top footballers consider the Spanish giants a more attractive proposition.

We had to be quick for he was the last player out of the showers and was under pressure to get on the team bus, joining the Community Shield for a 21 journey to Old Trafford.

“That’s what it really looks like”, said economist Bastien Drut in comments to AFP.

“He’s a very young player, an unbelievable midfield player with such physicality but, at the same time, such agility, co-ordination, skill”.

While the likes of United and Manchester City have shown they’re prepared to meet the demands of those they wish to buy from, the frugal Wenger still appears to be reluctant to pay beyond his valuation of a player even if they would be a good signing. So if he needs protection, I am here to protect. At a time when increased attention on his club and players is inevitable, it’s vital that Leicester keep hold of the man who managed the media so expertly last season, to the extent that people barely noticed his side were on their way to winning the league until they went five points clear at the top on 6 February.

Mourinho also had another dig at Arsene Wenger and Jurgen Klopp, suggesting they are not at clubs big enough to make a signing like United’s capture. So, amid all the hype, just what exactly will the France global bring to Man United?

“I feel this. I spoke with him a few times and he gave me energy and positivity”. “But we respect the money we have – it is very hard to find the quality of players who are available”.

Key players including goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, defender Wes Morgan and prolific striker Jamie Vardy have also extended their contracts with the club who begin their title defence with a trip to promoted Hull City on Saturday.
