So with everyone fit, how many of their squad would actually get in our first team? The donut thief would be the stand out one. Pogba is a very good player and I think he will come good. Yet he is not as good as Silva or KDB in the attacking midfield roles and and no chance he gets in, in front of Fernandinho in the deeper role.
Bailly is better than Otto I reckon.

There is no excuse for us not spanking them. We are far, far better than them.

Regarding Pogba – I was one who wanted him here, mainly on reports of how good he was for Juve without actually seeing that much of him play – but having seen him for the Rags, what a bullet dodged.
I disagree, he wouldn't fit in a Pep team - his passing isn't great nor is his close control... the difference in quality between him and KDB is incredible.

The donut thief is a very good player but I doubt anyone would have him in our team over Eddie.

Not watched him when at Juventus , but Pogba is a show pony at the Rags, which totally suits them as a club / fan base , and nowhere near the hype that surrounds his performances. I would be very disappointed if we had spent that much on buying a player with such a mediocre return football wise.

And he may improve, but so long as he receives the unjustified hype that he gets, I seriously doubt it.

Already at the perfect club for having smoke blown up his arse.

If they had paid 10 mil for him they would have been looking for a replacement a long time ago.

He's probably the better shot-stopper, but he wouldn't be as good as Ederson in anything else. I guess the question depends on whether it's how many of our players would get into their team, managed by Mourinho, or how many of their players would get in our team managed by Pep. For the former, there's definitely a lot, although he'd probably still insist on having big lumps like Matic and Lukaku over actual cultured players.

Eddie looks fantastic but he is unproven in comparison to the donut thief. He has been their one world class player for a few years now and is atguably the best keeper in the world at present.

Looks ok with a ten man bus parked in front of him with very negative hoofball. Play him in an attractive, attacking, expansive team like City, then we would probably not be sitting on top of the Prem !!
 
Fucking hell I can't believe how many of you collude in the illusion the donut thief is anything other than a hollywood keeper.

He's okay for the rags, but never in a million years is he a Pep player. Eddie is taylor-made for the way we are playing; he's like a sweeper. He gives us an extra option (I just don't like that bloody great big tattoo on his neck).
