Rumoured Paul Pogba

[Sidzeret 2,257]

If the rumours are true, it really does make you think on where players are playing next year. I think most of us have/had subscribed to the whole Matic-Fabregas as double pivot, with Pogba coming that means either Fabregas moves into Oscar territory or Matic suddenly becomes expendable. Curious..

Maybe the return of the Christmas Tree?

Azpilicueta --------Terry-Cahill----------------Luis

Pogba - Matic - Fabregas

Oscar ----------- Hazard

Costa

That is essentially a 4-3-3. Wonder why they call it the Christmas tree?

Kroos-Matic-Fabregas have got nothing on this team as Pogba provides the legs for the midfield. If this deal comes true, we surely have the best midfield in the PL,

Costa

We'd dominate 99% of midfields with that XI. I'd personally swap Oscar for Willian until I see that Oscar is back to his best.

I think essentially for some people (..me lol) a 4-3-3 suggests a wider formation than the christmas tree.. Involving wingers alongside the striker and instead of the 2 CMs they are the AMs.

I don't see the hype about Kroos (albeit, I haven't watched him indepth) but he seems to be... Invisible?

That makes sense. But with a significant aerial threat in Costa, we sould use the full width of the pitch and get those crosses in.

About Kroos. Invisible? Unless you are talking about the inch perfect long balls to the feet of the attackers from a guy who is not even in the frame of the camera

Best case scenario would have been Kroos- Matic- Pogba instead of buying Fabregas. That could be the best midfield on the planet.

Matic is untouchable.

If the rumours are true, chuck Costa and play Fabregas as false 9 or CF ....

Pogba or Kroos, no way we are going to sign both of them at the same window, with Fabregas already signed.

I could cope with getting only one of them.

Our so called interest in him seems to be hotting up. Several sites are reporting a potential £60m offer for him.

News like this make me want to scream out loud of joy, just the thought of adding Pogba to our team would be mouthwatering.

I see he would be counted as English if we buy him. What the hell are we waiting for?

Maybe there's something to it.. we can't really know just yet.

60M though? quite a lot..

Worth it considering he is 21, counted as English and already world class.

Most of these sites are quoting the goal.com article... Wouldn't say it's hotting up.

Feel the same. He would a great addition, and he would add towards to English quota.

I have seen newspapers reporting it aswell. I personally believe there is some truth in it.
