Its like there is some internal pressure on pundits / commentators to big up everything he does.

Every decent pass he makes is highlighted with some cliche "thats some real class from pogba" while its something every midfielder does multiple times per game, Xhaka for example had far more impressive passes throughout the match which the commentators gave praise but only in a patronising manner it felt like.

They then never mention him jogging around out of position to help, losing the ball then complaining and how he goes long periods without having any impact on the game.

Each game they have the same discussion making up however many excuses for how to "unlock" him by surrounding him by other good players so he doesnt have to do any work. If he was this world class player he wouldnt need 2 guys beside him to cover for his shit effort just so he can play a few balls over the top and score one long range goal every 100 games.

You also never hear mentioned the fact he cost £89m, at the time the most expensive transfer ever (compared to every city player being named with their price).
To be honest, he looked like a million dollar player with France in that game, he just doesn’t do it for his local team.
 
Fishing yesterday, listened on the radio, all I could hear was Stones, Stones, Stones, was quite surprised with the Magliar 'dull as dishwater, Owenesque ' interview, he'd won MotM, dreadful player, must be in the name.
Can I just ask as I turned off at the final whistle, maguire was man of the match ! Really ? No way. Not by any stretch of the imagination. His defending was good but that's it and he should have scored from at least one of his headers. MotM, you're having a giraffe my son.
