Yeah, I don't either. I am mainly speaking hypothetically; if this is the time Manchester wants to sell.... then strike when the iron is hot. If Mourinho is that crazy, sell them Kovacic. He wants to go anyways. If you remember I have always stated if Kovacic demands to force out, ideally we should sell him and replace him with Sergej (this season) or Pogba (next summer).
I'm not a big fan of Sergej but the way things are right now i wouldn't mind to give them Kova + money for Pogba. I think Kovacic has already turned down an offer from them though.
Kovacic has already said he doesn’t like Man U’s style of football, he won’t go there. They 100% aren’t selling Pogba considering they would have a whole 4 days to find a replacement.
Sarri on Courtois: I only want players with very high level of motivation.— Rik Sharma (@riksharma_) August 5, 2018 Sarri will talk to Courtois on Monday and if he tells him he wants to leave, then that's that— Rik Sharma (@riksharma_) August 5, 2018
He's supposedly in the doghouse again ... Apparently , Jose 'asked' the first team squad to return to training earlier than planned and Pogba was the only one to refuse --
For some more context on what Sarri said: Sarri: "Quiero escuchar a Courtois, no a su agente" https://t.co/YTNcCpLLB9 pic.twitter.com/rQAFU4q1K5— MARCA (@marca) August 5, 2018 On Courtois: "I am not interested in what his agent says, I want to hear from Courtois himself. I want to know if he tells me the same on Monday. I only want players with high motivation." On Hazard: "I will also talk to him on Monday and I expect the conclusion will be good rather than bad."
I wish these players would grow some balls. Pogba hasn’t been happy for years wasting his potential, Courtois is living in another country to his kids, Hazard pines to come here - we need some rebellion, Luka Modric style.
Hmmmmmm, I wonder if Hazard will be attracted to the reported 300k a week new contract, let’s see how much he really wants to come here.
JLS on Modric: The player is seriously considering his departure. ✏ Want to sign his last big contract pressured by his agents ✏ Real Madrid does not have any exit agreement with Modric ✏ They do not take the offer of Inter seriously, they would not fulfill FFP 🚨 NOTICIA MODRIC 🚨✏ El jugador se está planteando seriamente su salida.✏ Quiere firmar su último gran contrato presionado por sus agentes ✏ El Real Madrid NO tiene ningún pacto de salida con Modric ✏ No se toman en serio la oferta del Inter, incumpliría FPF— José Luis Sánchez 🇪🇸 (@JLSanchez78) August 5, 2018
United won't sell Pogba now with PL window closing in 3-4 days. Maybe next summer, but I expect Utd to have a new manager then.
An italian youtuber that said cr7 to juve for first now he's saying marcelo to juve too. Deal done. He claims to get these infos from an ex football player.

While I won’t pretend to know how Chelsea operates, couldn’t he have had this conversation like a week after the World Cup. We’ve known for a long time that there were multiple rumors about Courtois wanting to come back to Madrid because of his family and him not being interested in remaining in London. Why wait till 4 days from your deadline to want to talk to the player and make a definitive decision? It makes no sense and shows poor management on Chelsea’s part.
I think Modric is leaving. Too much smoke. He’s been a class player for us and have no problem with him wanting a new challenge
Well Chelsea dragged the Sarri appointment for a long time too, not sure how far after the WC he was appointed.
Melchor Ruiz saying Kova asked to leave and that Inter is an option. I'm pretty disappointed at how badly he wants to leave. I mean I get it but as a fan its annoying. A major piece of the puzzle for the future slipping away from our hands.
Kovacic can ask to leave all he wants, but until he and his agent bring a suitable offer to the club, he better get used to being here next season.
Dont you think it is possible Chelsea is also holding on to Courtois until they receive a better offer?
