Pogba 'honoured' by Juve move

Juventus have officially confirmed the signing of Paul Pogba on a four-year deal after the midfielder left Manchester United in the summer.

The Frenchman turned down a new deal at United to make the move to Juventus in search of regular first team football.

The 19-year-old admitted it was an 'honour' to join the Italian champions and hopes to win over the club's fans.

"I am very happy to be here, it is a real honour," he told Juventus' official website.

"I have been told that there is a very good standard of play and the fans support their favourites. I hope they take me and support me in the same way."

Another money greedy foreigner, wanted 15/20k a week but fergie only offered 8. Well done fergie get rid!! If he was patient and binded his time, and if he was any good he'd of got his chance. First team football? Yeah right in a championship level league, with a load of hairband fairies playing 1-nil setback football yawn.... next!

I'm not a city fan, no. But as you are clearly a united fan tell me, how does it feel to try and put a cork back in a bottle? City made you look like a mid table team last season and will do for the next few years. As for the premier league, I agree it is the best in the world but chelsea and city are better than united, then in spain you have real madrid and barcelona, both better than united. Then I'l leave it to you to decide where you come after AC Milan, Juventus, Bayern Munich ....I could go on, sunshine
