Florentino Perez is not ready to pay over the odds for Pogba , his agent is trying for a deal with Juventus next summer
So no transfer in January , may be in summer we will start to hear again ...better to find a long term replacement (not that easy though) who is much more committed
Martial is an extremely talented guy but equally lazy and inconsistent and in some games he is anonymous (Roy Keane wants to kick him out this summer itself , he is saying he got enough chances to prove , Mourinho too was also on the same page when he was in charge at United but the club was against at it )
Eric Haland (if he comes) can give a tight competition to him
Man Utd should have signed Minamino ( low transfer fee , Liverpool made a shrewd business ) and he might have got a regular chance in the first XI itself in place of Lingaard
The team lacks spine , need a Roy Keane and a Scholes in midfield ...Fergie was lucky to have both
Oru creative midfielder athyavashyam aanu. Pogba can do that. If he stays. And Mctomany is the only hope as a captain material. Even if he has less quality than others, his attitude is proper man united one.
Yes martial is a lazy but still he is getting goals. Mason greenwood is a real deal. What a finishing that kid has. Top class.

Dortmund sign Haaland
Borussia Dortmund have announced the signing of Erling Haaland from Red Bull Salzburg.
Manchester United pulled out of the race to sign Erling Haaland after they encountered problems with the striker's agent Mino Raiola during negotiations
Why Erling Braut Haaland rejected ?70,000 a week more at Manchester United to join Borussia Dortmund
Premier League club were willing to offer Haaland 70 per cent more that Dortmund but the chance to stake a regular claim in the Champions League swayed the Norwegian teenager to the Bundesliga
Erling Braut Haaland turned down higher wages from Manchester United and Juventus to sign for Borussia Dortmund, because of the Bundesliga club?s proven success in developing young players.
The 19-year-old Norwegian has joined Dortmund in an ?18m purchase from Red Bull Salzburg, despite sources close to the move maintaining United were initially willing to do a deal that would have left Haaland with up to ?70,000 a week more in wages. His contract at the Westfalonstadion is understood to be around ?100,000 a week, but the potential to develop as a player and start in the Champions League were as important to the player and his camp as the financial terms.
Dortmund were confident they had the forward weeks ago, after conversations in which they spelled out a defined role in the team, as well as how they have represented a proven pathway for young players.
It was put out on Sunday evening that United?s interest in Haaland had collapsed due to a refusal to agree on the player?s camp - and agent Mino Raiola - getting a share of any future sale as well as having a buy-out clause, but some figures privy to the Dortmund deal have expressed bemusement at this.
It has been privately pointed out that United did continue to talk with Raiola for weeks despite this, but also that such contracts are common constructs in Germany. Mario Gotze and Julian Brandt are two players who have had similar deals
Sources maintain that the main reason Haaland has gone to Dortmund is because it?s ?a perfect step?. It?s not a Real Madrid or Barcelona that probably would have been too great a leap at this point, but still a big Champions League club, who were offering a defined role.
In contrast to that, Juventus have a bloated array of attacking options dominated by Cristiano Ronaldo, while United have Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood. Even from that perspective, the Old Trafford hierarchy aren?t missing out on that much, other than a young talent of obvious potential. Their needs elsewhere, however, are greater. Haaland has meanwhile been promised a greater role in the Dortmund team.
