Sometimes you have to think footballers are just taking the piss when it comes to teasing fans. Take for example, Memphis Depay and this picture that he posted on Instagram and Facebook last night.
That is of course, Depay enjoying himself on his holidays with none other than Paul 'Fergie's biggest mistake' Pogba. An exciting attacker and a top quality central midfielder. They were probably most fans' top two hopes for this transfer window.
Depay has already filled one of those hopes and, if money were no object, many would say that Pogba would be ideal to fill the other. Despite the fact that Pogba left Old Trafford for next to nothing in 2012, he undoubtedly be welcomed back with open arms if he was to continue to show the kind of form that has made him Juventus' greatest asset.
It's unlikely that Man United would shell out the £50 million-ish that would take to the Frenchman back to Old Trafford but Depay's photo has given some fans slightly unrealistic expectations.
