It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

Spot on. Trots around the pitch doing next to nothing and still thinks his shit smells of roses. Big headed, arrogant, useless, dabbing ****.

Thats united with ole though not a good team but full of players that can have great moments to win or rescue enough games to make them think progress is being made. In the end though they’ll not win the league with ole, might win a cup, or might not.

As much as I hate Pogba he is a world class player & him leaving is a big blow

If the world is Walt Disney World maybe. Though I've heard Micky is more consistent and Goofy shows up more in the big games.

73m + future bonuses,if & a fucking big if UTD manage to win anything then Dortmund will receive more money & so will City everytime Dortmund get coin City get 15%

If you said to me Sancho & Varane would be signed & Pogba sold then I think its poor business

Pogba is such a bizarre player. Watching him for France is almost literally like watching a different player. He was sensational vs Switzerland. He would be a great pickup for PSG IMO.

So Pogba has some certain really outstanding traits, but a lot of holes in his game. I reckon that since his youth days in France every team has played to his strengths, which made him better at what he does great but worse at what he does poorly. And you can't blame the teams because I assume even back then he was a potential star in the making, so why not cater to him?


Then he finally rocks up at United (the 2nd time) and now he's in a team that forces him to use the other aspects of his game he's waivered. He still has his moments, but he's forced to play a more rounded game and it doesn't suit him.

I reckon a lot of lesser but still very talented players have similar problems. Big fishes at youth level who have their teammates play for their strengths, but unprepared to be smaller fish at senior level.

I do wonder if that's part of the reasoning why City youth teams are all VERY team orientated these days?

United's youth setup at one time used to be very much aimed at 'polishing the diamond' where the other 10 players were there to help develop the 'star'. I much prefer our system.
