Paul Pogba

[lancs blue]

Could have sworn one of our derby games was a very early ko and always thought it was this game.

Following season, 3-3 draw was a noon KO after the trouble during the 5-1.

Nope.

3:00 on a Saturday afternoon.

Don`t know why I thought this game was an early KO.

Lol Who's better than Pogba at a similar or younger age? Weigl,Veratti,Dahoud,Saul...The list could go on and on depending on one's opinion..Plenty of MFs with similar stats to Pogba..Not football intelligent enough for me..A very highly marketable player he is though..He'll make millions of shirt sales

That's the only reason they signed Ibrahimovic too!

People buying Pogba or Ibrahimovic shirts would have bought a Rooney, Martial or Rashford otherwise.

Shirt sales paying for a transfer is a myth.

I'm completely baffled by the notion, on here, that this one player will elevate their team!

Sure, against lower opposition he'll look like Yaya running through, at will.

He won't get to do that with the bus parking teams or the cloggers of the Prem.

Most importantly, he can't (& won't) do it on his own.

Yaya, in his prime, worked best with a like-minded midfield partnership, moving in tandem.

Maureen doesn't display this within his set up. He just doesn't like that style of play.

He's looking for a Lampard type player, but he needs to recreate what he had in his most successful period at Chelsea and that current midfield ain't it.

I will be surprised if they gate crash the top four, but that depends on Le Arse, in my opinion.

From what I was told shirts sales don't go to Utd but straight to adidas that's why adidas gives them so much a year

If united buy Pogba it's a good signing regardless of money. Do fans care about that bit? I wish we were buying him

Think they will certainly get top 4 with the team they have and their manager unless they implode with the egos involved which would be a sight to behold.

I agree on the notion that one player won't make a team but one player can certainly improve it. It's not like they don't have a strong side now in totality. Martial, Ibra, Mkhtariyan and Pogba are all great players that, together, can cause serious damage to opponents.

What Pogba does need is a perfect foil. He had that in Pirlo, Vidal and Marchisco at various points of his Juve career. It remains a mystery if Moanrinho goes back into the transfer market and tries for Matuidi or accepts Schneiderlin in the role besides Pogba.

I think after the longest thread in BM history, we all did mate.
