Perhaps this is what mourinho was referring to when he said ""You can say ‘Why didn’t we do our business before the start of the pre-season?’ like we did last year but it's not because we don’t want to, it's because it’s not possible."So, in this moment, we are a bit limited"

My theory is that we contacted Juventus months ago and they made it clear Pogba is not available this summer and we didn't want to settle for a secondary choice. After the City result, in a bid to appease the fans and see if Juventus have had a change of heart, we made this bid that's being reported.

I dont agree with the "appease the fans" part but everything else might be correct, especially the part about not settling for a secondary option. I dont think we're trying any other midfielder if its not Pogba or Koke.

Mourinho IMO wants to complete his first XI "for good", its either a player who will complete the midfiled or nothing. Players like Witsel and even Nainggolan and Moutinho cannot be this player in the long term.

Plus, we have no idea if those player will come for a squad role.

Now that we have Pedro for RW, and probably we wont get Pogba, i hope Mourinho is going to trust either Oscar or Willian for the #10 role.

We went too late with the bid. Should juve still have Vidal and plenty of time to bring replacement, Pogba hadnt switch to #10 and commit himself, maybe he would be ours now...

I doubt its the first time we try to do something with Pogba this summer. Even if it is, its not only about Chelsea, Barca couldnt find a deal for January or next summer, and City as well.

The difference between Pogba and Vidal is that Vidal wanted to leave. According to Marotta and Pogba, he's ok with another season in Juve.

The key for any deal with Pogba is to make him ask to leave Juventus. Marotta always said it, they dont keep unhappy players.

I think that the signing does not depend on how much money we are going to offer (within a normal margins, obviously). Everything depends on Pogba and if he wants to come with us. The big players play where they want to play.

And having Pogba and Raiola angry for a year in Turin can be very difficult to bear for Juventus.

If Pogba wants to come with us, he will come. Raiola will make a lot of noise before the market closes to make the signing (and take his commission).

Maybe in the next few hours Pogba will make some gesture or statement saying what he wishes for the nearest future ...

If Pogba makes noise... the signing is possible.

Regards.
