REASONS WHY PAUL POGBA IS WORTH 100 MILLION

1. He is a World Class Player: Paul Pogba is no doubt the best young player in the world. He is skillful, he can score goals from crazy ranges, he's strong and he is pitch perfect in his vision and passing of the ball, just what Zlatan Ibrahimovic needs. This guy is an all rounder. His ability is suited to the Premier League. At 23 years of age, he has a lot to achieve at Manchester United.

2. World Class Players are worth World Class money: Players such as Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo etc. all transferred to teams for crazy fees. And just look at what they've already achieved. Yes, if you sign a player for large sum fees, you are guaranteed success. Manchester United have the money, we are the third richest club in the world behind Barcelona and Real Madrid and these are teams who sign the top players for top fees.

3. Young and Experienced: Paul Pogba has done it everywhere. This summer he competed in the Euros in France representing France, two years ago the World Cup in Brazil, he represented Juventus into a Champions League final a year ago, he has won all the Italian trophies also, year after year. He is young and experienced, just what Manchester United need actually.

4. An Investment: Despite the high sum, Paul Pogba is a huge investment. He is young, as we all know, and in the future we'll have the likes of Paul Pogba, Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard, Anthony Martial, altogether leading the team in attack. #lethal. Paul Pogba and Jesse Lingard are already close friends and could create a midfield masterclass.

If I have missed out on anything, please comment below, I love to read your comments.

REASONS WHY MANCHESTER UNITED ARE THE GREATEST CLUB


I'm pretty sure I don't have to explain all of this to you, as you may already know. But just to build up our confidence in the next season, I'm going to go over a few facts about United!

1. The Academy: Manchester United produce one of the best youngsters in the world. Some might argue with that but no doubt Manchester United produce the best youngsters in England, simply. We have produced the likes of Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard, Marcus Rashford and many more. Believe me there are many more to come.

2. Transfers: Manchester United attract the world's biggest players to the club. One example is Zlatan Ibrahimovic this summer. This guy is a legend, some even refer to him as a god. He could have joined a host of massive clubs around the world where he can be playing Champions League football. But he joined Manchester United. 

3. Money: Manchester United are the third richest club in the world after Real Madrid and Barcelona. And, I think the fifth richest sports team in the world? Amazing. Other clubs will say that the signing of Paul Pogba for a sum of 100 million is too much. But for Manchester United, it may seem a lot still for them, but, it's recoverable. I think I'll do a blog post about why Pogba isn't over priced so tune in for that. *wink*

4. Titles: Manchester United still remain the club in England with the highest number of trophies won. Despite not winning major titles such as the Champions League or Premier League in three years. 

5. Stadium: Manchester United have the biggest stadium in England, after the England's National Team's which is Wembley Stadium and the biggest in the Premier League.

Can you think of any other reasons why Manchester United are the greatest club?

THE BETRAYER TO MAN UTD

We all heard and saw the battle between Chelsea and Manchester United as the two teams rivalled out to sign Cesc Fabregas from Barcelona, and Chelsea were victorious. However, Cesc Fabregas is unsettled on his future at Chelsea, and Jose Mourinho is ready to swoop the Spanish midfielder.

The future of Cesc Fabregas at Chelsea is doubtful after the new manager of Stamford Bridge, Antonio Conte, is looking to strengthen the midfield. Cesc Fabregas has a strong relationship with Jose Mourinho, and could be convinced. After the sacking of Jose Mourinho at Chelsea, Cesc Fabregas was the first player to express words of thanks.

Honestly though, I don't care about all of this rubbish. It's all rumours, the player is not needed. 6 goals, 9 assists in 49 games, no thanks.

NEYMAR COULD LEAVE?

Barcelona have reportedly made a final contract offer for Neymar with a salary of 15 million euros per year including tax. This is the highest the club could possibly go to keep the Brazilian winger at the club.

Barcelona are desperate to hold on to Neymar as a lot of the big clubs are after the chase. Paris Saint- Germain, Real Madrid, surprisingly why are they even bothering, and Manchester United!

There are a lot of rumours involving Neymar to other teams and does seem likely since he's won every possible trophy at the club. He has been linked to Paris Saint Germain and Manchester United but I can only imagine the player staying at Barcelona. Otherwise, it seems more likely if he joined Manchester United. What do you think?

ZLATAN WANTS REVENGE

Zlatan Ibrahimovic's agent, Mino Raiola has revealed that the Swedish striker wants revenge on Pep Guardiola who is taking over of Manchester City next season in the Barclays Premier League.

Whilst the former Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola and Zlatan Ibrahimovic were both at the club, the pair fell out for whatever reason. Manchester United's manager Jose Mourinho, is not a fan of Pep either. Could this be a rejuvenation of the rivalry between the two clubs.

We look forward indeed to the Manchester derby next season, but who do you think will be on top?

JOSE ATTRACTS INTERESTS ELSEWHERE

Reports show that Jose Mourinho has made contact with PSG over the possible signing of Marco Verratti.

Italian company Corriere dello Sport reported that Manchester United are looking to offer up £79 million for the Italian midfielder. Which is kind of ridiculous even though he is a great player. Still, Verratti is a great player. He is often compared to Andrea Pirlo with his ability to drive accurate long balls. He's small and quick on his feet which means he can intercept play and could be just the player we need to supply our attackers. Last season, Marco Verratti played the most accurate through balls in Ligue 1. He was also included in the Ligue 1 team of the season.

Another player interested by Manchester United and also Barcelona and Napoli is Monaco's Right Back Fabinho. Fabinho can also play as a holding midfielder bagging 8 goals and 5 assists in all competitions which is quite phenomenal for a defender. Last season Fabinho won 89 tackles, 62 headed duels and 76 interceptions as wells as creating 25 chances! I've never heard of this player before in my life, but he sounds like a determined defender, something that has been lacking in the Manchester United defence. I really think that's what Mourinho is looking for in our defence, determination. And i think he expressed that in signing Eric Ba
illy. And I'm pretty sure he'll like to follow the footsteps of Anthony Martial, who is achieving dreams, and join Manchester United. And, he's only 22 years of age!

CHANGE OF PLANS?

I personally don't want Louis Van Gaal to leave Manchester United, but, guys, wouldn't it be cool if Jose Mourinho joined with Manchester United to heat up the Manchester derby next season! Manchester United vs Manchester City and Jose Mourinho vs Pep Guardiola. Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola never got on in Spain when Jose was manager over Real Madrid and Pep over Barcelona. If Jose Mourinho joined, the Premier League would be more exciting than ever before! But there is another alternative.

Sir Alex's assistant manager, Carlos Queiroz. Carlos Queiroz was responsible for most of the big signings at Manchester United in the past such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Luis Nani, Anderson (When he was good), etc. the list goes on. This guy knows his football so well. What players to sign. He is the one who made the Ronaldo we know now get to where he is. He is the one that made him grow! Sir Alex loved this guy and I think he will be superb! He carried the Iran National team into the 2014 World Cup and managed to concede only one goal against Argentina in the 90th minute of the match. Phenomenal! Unfortunately though, Carlos Queiroz has a contract for the National Team till the 2018 World Cup. But wouldn't he be great!

GOODBYE VALDES :(

It's official now that Victor Valdes is departing Manchester United after signing a loan move to Belgian side Standard Liege. He tweeted: Thank you all for your support over during these months of hard work for me. I will never forget! See you soon!" David de Gea responded: "We learn a lot from the best! Good luck my friend in this new stage!" This was expected after the quarrel between Louis Van Gaal and the ex Barcelona keeper over playing him for the reserves team. It seems as if it's not only Valdes who hates Van Gaal but also Angel Di Maria who left after one season at the club! The only ever game Valdes played for the first team was the final game of the season when he came on as a substitute and boy, oh boy, he shined, and really sent a message to Louis van Gaal! It's sad when Manchester United lose great players like this, but we hope for all the best for him and the rest of his football career.

"I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO PLAY FOR MANCHESTER UNITED" - XAVI

Former Barcelona and Spain captain Xavi admitted that he would have liked to play for a team in the premier league preferably Manchester United over Liverpool. The Spanish four time Champions League winner at Barcelona left the club to join Al Sadd in Qatar which is likely to be his last at the age of 35. He praised Manchester United commenting "United is my favourite historically-speaking." Honestly i don't think he would have even survived the pace of the Premier League!

PEDRO AGREES PERSONAL TERMS WITH MANCHESTER UNITED

Pedro has agreed personal terms with Manchester United despite interest shown from rivals Manchester City, why not? However Manchester United still need to come to terms with Barcelona. It is understood that Barcelona have a release clause for the Spanish winger of £21.2 million and Ed Woodward is in Barcelona. The deal is very close to be finalised. Pedro adds pace and experience winning every cup and trophy possible for both Barcelona and Spanish National team.

"SPEED AND CREATIVITY" - LOUIS VAN GAAL

In an official interview with BBC Sport, Louis Van Gaal revealed that Manchester United need a player of "speed and creativity". The Dutch manager also listed a host of players including: Willian and Hazard, Robben and Ribery, Bale and Ronaldo, and finally Messi and Neymar as examples. After the departure of Nani and possibly Angel Di Maria, Manchester United will lack speed and creativity on the left and right flank of midfield. Louis Van Gaal could be looking at Pedro from Barcelona who is considered unsettled at the football club and has a buy out clause of only 22 million! Definitely affordable and is a keen and one of the best players available in his class. You can watch the interview at:http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33675031

DI MARIA GOODBYE?

After the victory of Manchester United over world champions Barcelona in the US preseason tour, Louis Van Gaal had a conversation or interview with the press where he said, two players who were represented in the Argentina squad for the Copa America, missed their flight to the US. The two players were Marcos Rojo and Angel Di Maria. Louis Van Gaal said that Marcos Rojo ringed up the football club saying that he had passport issues, whereas with Angel Di Maria he just blatantly missed his flight. Javier Hernandez however got his flight and has reunited with the football club. There has been amid rumours that Angel Di Maria has been linked with a move to PSG and it sounds likely to be true. But if that's how a professional football player goes about it, that's just absolutely stupid. Even if David de Gea is unsettled at United he got on the plane and performed very well against Barcelona. He's committed to play well at such a big club. I can't wait to see the back of Angel Di Maria, and i hope Ed Woodward and Louis Van Gaal make the right decision and sell the player to another club maybe Ligue 1 the best league in Europe! It's really been disappointing because us United fans have relied upon him, we've been loyal despite his poor form since of family problems etc.

GREAT PLAYERS TO BE AXED?

Unsure is the future of Angel Di Maria and Victor Valdes. However Louis Van Gaal says Manchester United are planning to sell Victor Valdes because of his refusal to play for the reserves last season which he did. Whether he did or not it seems as if Louis Van Gaal has no plans to use the Spanish keeper in the team, and realises its best to sell him now to cover wages and make profit if so since arriving from Barcelona for free. Victor Valdes is expected to leave the club this summer. This could mean that Louis Van Gaal is looking to do as much as he can to hold on to David de Gea.
Whereas with Angel Di Maria the situation is unsure as said by Louis Van Gaal. If the Argentinean is to leave the club, PSG is the first destination, who have still been linked with the winger since the arrival of him to Manchester United.

Manchester United to sign Dutch wonder-kid? - "Lets's just make a team of Dutch then, eh!"

A bunch of big clubs are looking to sign 19 year old midfielder Daley Sinkgraven who plays for SC Heerenveen. Not only Manchester United
are looking to sign the wonder-kid but also Real Madrid, Barcelona and Liverpool. But Louis Van Gaal is looking to beat the big clubs to sign him. It's not likely that Louis Van Gaal will sign the youngster as we already know that his main focus is on the first team. But he could be a good feature for the academy and in the future. How many dutch does LVG want?

Victor Valdes to Manchester United? - another Catalonian!

Barcelona's ex keeper Victor Valdes left the Catalonian side and is currently a free agent. Louis Van Gaal has offered the Spaniard a chance to train with Manchester United as he recovers from a knee injury and to permanently join the reds in January. Now why would Van Gaal get Valdes if we have David De Gea? Are these reports true?

Dani Alves agrees deal!

Manchester United have agreed a deal with Barcelona to sign Brazilian Right back Dani Alves on a free transfer. The 31 year old will departure the club next summer. He might not be the answer to our questions in fact on the Bleecher report  76.6% think that Dani Alves is not the answer to our questions whereas 23.4% think that he is. Surely he will prove us wrong. He will. And besides he's for free!

Manchester United dream - Pep Guardiola

Bayern Munich manager and ex Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola, has revealed his Manchester United dream in the book: 'The inside story of Pep Guardiola's First Season at Bayern Munich', which was written by his friend and journalist Marti Perarneau. In the book its says: ''I like this atmosphere. I could see myself coaching here one day''. By the time Sir Alex Ferguson announced his retirement Pep Guardiola has already signed for Bayern Munich. So if not that he could have been our manager and bring the Tiki - Taka to Old Trafford. Personally there is no other manager apart from Louis Van Gaal that could do the job.

Gérard Pique return?

Gérard Pique is strongly linked to a move back to Manchester United.  The defender who has been benched by Barcelona after the arrivals of Jeremy Mathieu and Thomas Vermaelen the move seems likely. Manchester United are desperate for a fresh, experienced, solid defender and Pique fits that job. The daily mail say that oh, but Shakira wouldn't want to go to England. Rubbish! Look at all the wags in the Premier league!
