KDB is not a patch on this master, that is if you read that 0 hygene rated hovel of boundless delusion called redcafe. You great great snapshots of the human condition in full flow regarding Pogba on that site. He is lazy yet the best with KDB only beating him on effort and not consistent awareness and vision coupled with better passing on a much more consistent basis than Pogba for starters. If you take away 99% of attributes a footballer needs then he is levels above KDB, FACT!

He is world class, drove Juve to glory as opposed to being the sparkle on top of a brilliant team. He can do it all as long as he just gets to play on the left of a world class very specific setup just for him in midfield, has to be a 3 obviously, i mean a midfield two?, radical nonsense that is. To ask the man to do things like defend or put over 20% effort in is to miss the point of this legend in his own time you see. You would not ask a God to polish your shoes would you?
He has greater clarity of vision for the game than Elon Musk does for humanity and it's survival, the fact non of you on here can see this just shows you all up for the fools you all are. Mourinho asking him to have tactical discipline is just shy of him being physically abused with a thumb in his eye.

All they need is Toni Kroos!

You’re right, the stuff on there is ridiculous. They shouldn’t have bought Pogba. Who buys a player for the best part of 100mil then have to worry about buying 5 more players to get the best out of him?

I’d look good playing with Pirlo and Vidal. It doesn’t make me a good footballer

You missed out his hair
 
I know a lot of you would rather eat you own underpants than go on Rag Cafe, but I wander there sometimes. I was just looking at some of the comments about Carlton from Summer 2017. These are all from the first 2 pages of comments. Enjoy.

Going to be the best player in the league this season.
He will dominate the league this year.
Him and Lukaku could be a potent combination.
There's no doubt he's one of the most creative players in the world.
Expect him to explode this season.
He has it all and now has a good understanding of his spot in the club.
Mourinho looks like he wants to build around him now, and that will be his making.
Forget helping us win games for a moment and just appreciate how nice it is to be able to see those flicks, tricks and passes for 90 minutes every week.
Can't wait to see him walking out at Old Trafford on Champions League match day, He will boss the midfield.
Our best and most important player.
As he so often does, he made this game look completely effortless.
Makes the game look so easy.
What an important player he's going to be this season.
He's an unbelievable player so happy we signed him.
He is so good. A dominant midfield force, the likes of which we've been desperate for since Scholes retired. Pogba is so talented and has such a good brain.
Can establish himself as the best player in England.
I think we robbed Juventus. He's just so classy and effective. There's no midfielder in the world to match.

I won't go on...isn't hindsight a marvellous thing.

It's the Pep effect
At the start of the season Mourinho set up his team to defend like fuck when they play a good side (Liverpool away is a perfect example) Meanwhile over at the Blue Camp, Pep has his team playing the most beautiful football this country has ever seen, no matter the opponent
The pressure of Pep and his free scoring team has put Jose under untold pressure and he's been getting it from every quarter, hence trying to play a more expansive game with lesser players and crap tactics

See I like this idea, but they've had this problem since the start of the season even before we hit our stride and started getting praise (They were showing signs of these problems even in their 4-0 win vs West Ham in the 1st game of the season).

Admittedly, there have been a couple of games where they went against type to satiate fans (ie Chelsea away) but that's about it.

United fans I've spoken to have suggested the problem with defending stems from a lack of player effort rather than coaching. They seem to believe the players are not motivated and that comes down from Mourinho. Especially given how his sides are also notorious in their ability to play above themselves this too seems odd.

A lack of motivation (arrogance?) would make a lot of sense for a lot of their flaws. Their performance vs us was meek at best. It would be easy to say that Mourinho is frustrated and has given up on the season and that's trickled down to the players, but again, they've had these traits since August.

In my opinion, the problem starts and ends with Woodward. The fact is he cares more about money than success, his recent comments on Sanchez and the club's constant claims of global popularity are testament. I believe Mourinho is heavily dissatisfied with the club's transfer policy, and the club's inability to improve his squad to his standards. I've said it before, but their team barring two or three is pretty mediocre by top standards.

Where he may be envious of Pep, is looking across the road and seeing the support he's had. Just remember at his last club, Chelsea, he had such a deep squad that he could get away with getting rid of KDB, Salah, Lukaku and whatnot and still have an excellent side.

He's signed an extension with United, and to be honest whilst I think he wants to stay and succeed he had contemplated leaving. I suspect the board have given him encouragement as to how they'll finally get him the team he wants, the signing of Sanchez was a gift if anything. But I think this earlier disillusionment combined with his lack of faith in the team has held them back. Privately, I believe this entire season was a write-off from the start. They'll do enough to make the CL and possibly go on a good cup run or two, but no more.

What we should be wary of with United is that they get themselves into gear because if they get the squad he wants they'll be a force; I mean look what he's doing with the team he has now. However, with Woodward at the helm there's a realistic chance their transfers won't go to plan and Mourinho will start behaving like Conte is this season.


What Mourinho probably failed to realise is that United had a business side and a football side. And with Ferguson gone, they have nobody who can run the football side given he did it all on his own; they just have some business folk. I think this, and Woodward's role within it is the source of his general dissatisfaction. Which has trickled down into the team.

I know it seems a stretch to say that it's Woodward's fault that Pogba and co don't track back well. But it kinda is..
 
Its days like this that make all the years of abuse worth it eh lads? Snatching it off them last kick of the season was special and I thought couldn't be bettered but romping away from them rubbing their noses in it and looking at what they spent on just Lukaku, Pogba and Sanchez for fuck all return is making this a much much better experience - the tick has finally tocked ya rag bastards !

Lol at this Rag saying he is shit scared about the next derby. Towards the end, he brought up about how (quote).

" City are taking the piss out of everyone".

Seasons like this were never supposed to happen for MCFC. We were'nt even on their radar a few years ago and were never expected to be. And I mean NEVER. So now they have a terrible case of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Surely it’s more like PDSD - Pre-Derby Stress Disorder.
 
True story.

My best mate, a united fan but a really good lad, texted me unannounced tonight to tell me he’s “giving up on football. The games gone mad with all the money in it these days”

This isn’t a daft teenager. This is a lad that’s been a utd fan all his life. 70’s And 80’s. Went all over with them until recent years when like all of us family got in the way etc.

“Giving up on football” all of a sudden.

He didn’t mind when they were spending £30m on Ferdinand when other teams in the top six were still spending £1m or £2m on signings.

I couldn’t believe it. Soft ****

A couple of weeks ago Sanchez had probably the biggest decision of his professional life to make. I'm sure there were many factors involved and many outside influences, but it essentially came down to this: money v football. I wonder how he's feeling about that decision right now.

He can always revert to his piano playing career. Nice to have options I guess.

Its the dogs I feel sorry for. They had no say in this, and now have to live with their pictures adorning the swamp. Not sure at what point you call in the RSPCA?
