Rio Ferdinand dismisses Paul Pogba-Roy Keane conparison
Albeit he admitted one of Manchester United’s new signings, Paul Pogba was worth the record fee, former Red Devil centre-back, Rio Ferdinand would have none of the comparison between the former Juventusand one of the club’s greats, Roy Keane. Brushing aside claims that Pogba will step into Keane’s shoes, the 37 year-old said, ‘Pogba is not the new Keano, far from
it. Pogba is a very different kind of personality when you compare him to Roy,
but we can all see the talent he has got and that is why United are trying to
get him back now.

Roy was a driving force for our team,
he was in your face and he demanded high standards of everyone around him.
That’s what made him such a great winner and a true champion for United. There
will never be another Roy Keane. He was a one-off for a variety of reasons.

Pogba is not like that. I was at

be handled correctly.

He is a bit of an extrovert off the
field and doesn’t always do things in a conventional fashion, but there is
nothing wrong with that if he is producing the goods on the pitch. It doesn’t
matter what anyone says about the fee that Juventus are getting for Paul Pogba
because that is the going rate and the money Man Utd bring in from a variety of
sources means they can justify this kind of transfer.

You are investing in massive
potential. This guy could be the best midfielder in world football for the next
ten years and if he spends those years at United, then it would be a good
investment.

Jose Mourinho proud of Man United's world record transfer fee for Paul Pogba
Newly-signed Manchester United player, Paul Pogba’s world
record transfer fee has raised not a few eyebrows but Jose Mourinho doesn’t
care whose ox is gored. The former Juventus player was reportedly snapped for
around $116 million surpassing the current transfer record of $112.2 million
Real Madrid paid Tottenham for Gareth Bale 3 years ago. The 23 year-old midfielder has flown into
Manchester for his medical and should be unveiled in the coming days.

The former Chelsea manager has however hailed his employers’ spectacular signing.
“No, I don’t think Real Madrid was upset when they broke
the record with Gareth Bale or when they broke the record with Cristiano Ronaldo,
I think that was a world record too. When other people break records, I don’t
think it’s a reason to be sad. I think it’s a reason to be proud with the
dimension of the club that can do that and can attract players of this
dimension.

“If you ask if I think it is a lot of money, I think
football is crazy, the market has become crazy. What you think this season is
crazy, you realise that three years later it’s not crazy any more. And I think
there are players that cost ten million that are super expensive because there
are players who are four hundred or five hundred thousand or one million. What
is expensive and what is not expensive in football, I don’t know any more. I
just know that he’s a big player that is going for sure to be important for a
big club like Man United. And I’m sure that every Man United fan around the
world will be proud to belong to such a big club.”

Ozil and Mesut Ozil sponsor surgeries of 22 children
Mesut Ozil and Paul Pogba are in the news for a very commendable reason.

I am just happy to help.” Pogba said.
Paul Pogba handed Number 10 Jersey
Juventus have announced that Paul Pogba will wear the coveted number 10 Jersey this season following the departure of Carlos Tevez.
Roberto Baggio, Zinedine Zidane and Alessandro Del Piero are just three of the former greats who have worn the No.10 shirt at Juventus — a number which carries a great significance to Bianconeri fans.
It had been reported that the number may not be issued this season, following Tevez’s return to Boca Juniors, while many believed that it was being reserved for a big summer signing, such as Mario Gotze or Julian Draxler.
However, Pogba asked specifically to be given the shirt and the French midfielder will now use the number in the 2015-16 season.
“It’s not easy because all the biggest names in the history of Juventus have worn the No. 10 shirt,” Juve coach Massimiliano Allegri told a news conference in Shanghai, where Juve are preparing to face Lazio in the Supercoppa on Saturday.
“Paul asked for this shirt and he will have more responsibility because wearing that shirt is not simple. I believe Paul’s position is on the outside of a midfield three and maybe in a few years’ time, he will play in front of the defence [in Andrea Pirlo’s position].”
Pogba, 22, was the subject of an €80 million bid from Barcelona which was rejected this summer and, although he is contracted until 2019, the midfielder is attracting attention from the best clubs in the world.
Real Madrid issue official statement on Paul Pogba bid.
Spanish club, Real Madrid have labelled completely as false reports of Juventus star,Paul Pogba’s move to the club. There were reports by Italian newspaper, La Stampa that the Los Blancos had offered Pogba a five year deal worth €10m per year. The issue was addressed in an official statement released by the club today. Read it below.
“Following the reports published in the Italian newspaper La Stampa concerning an alleged offer from Real Madrid for the player Paul Pogba, the club wishes to state the following:
Real Madrid have had no contact either with Juventus or the player’s agent and, as a consequence, the reports published in this newspaper are completely false.”
