Chance to work under Mourinho at one of the world's biggest clubs? Play with Zlatan, Martial, and whatever other big players they buy. Unfinished business at a club he left if that matters to him. Think he said in an interview a few months ago that he still likes United. 

Plus to top it all off he'd probably be the highest paid player in the world. I can easily see him going there. Or City, tbh.

 

What is the hype around working with Mourinho? I would think Pogba would rather work with Conte (his old coach) more than Mourinho. Mourinho used to be someone who had a mystique about him, but not much any more.

Why would Pogba care about Mourinho?He has more chances to win trophies with Juventus than Man Utd.

United sign Eric Bailly

You don't think he'll get tired of walking Serie A year after year and want to make a step up somewhere? 

People act like just because it didn't work out in the end for him here that Mourinho is a spent force and isn't a draw any longer. He's still one of the 3 best managers in the world.

Literally never heard of him before this week when they were first linked. Any good?

I have no idea at all mate, I never pay any attention to Villareal.

Wonder if that signing ends their interest in Stones. Surely they wouldn't go and spend £40m on him when they have Smalling and now Bailly?

Anyways, that's now Arsenal, City, and United who have made significant signings. Spuds are having some striker who's apparently pretty good in for a medical today.

We, meanwhile, are taking our sweet old time. Far from the time to worry or even be concerned but it's certainly strange that the club who needs the most work (us) is the most quiet.

We need to start getting a move on. I know people will say "It's only June" and like you say we need fuck loads of work. Conte is fucking France, teams are buying already and we need about 4-5 players IMO.

Time for action, not words.

I haven't seen much of Bailly, regular La Liga watchers say he is very very raw and the fee is excessive

[Chelsea_firstlove 178]

Bailly is better than Stones imo.

[Blue_Fox_ 2,086]

Bailly is going to be a fantastic CB. It's nailed on. With José's tutelage even more so.
Hopefully we sign Koulibaly now we can't do the Rudiger mistake anymore. (and try to bid for Marquinhos ffs)

[Special Juan 27,458]

For 30M he is going to need to be fantastic with immediate effect.

[Pizy 18,460]

I'd be delighted with either Stones or Koulibaly, tbh. 

[TheIceMan 596]

It's Early! It's  Only June! Be patient! We have plenny of time! Don't worry!

When did I hear that before! Oh, wait!!!

Behind Pep and Conte, I would agree

Interesting that Jose didn't go after Stones, Marquinhos, Mustafi.

Still think that there will be a more experienced defender coming in.

Classic Josay. [emoji4]

Should there be a cheeky bid for Darmian?

Yes, I also think he's not done with the defence, interesting to see who they'll get to partner up with Bailly/Smalling. Won't be surprised if they sign one of Marquinhos or Mustafi to be honest.
If (if ) we get our targets and they get theirs for defence and midfield it won't be far from our matches of old against them, absolute classics. Only José on the wrong bench this time... 
I would love Darmian here, but i'm biased regarding that.
