Paul Pogba

[tolmie's hairdoo]

I think you know he’s coming mate and after thinking about it this morning I’ll back pep to get his France performances to city! On a free at decent wages he deserves the chance to prove himself if he wants it.

I know he's been offered, I know it was at his behest, I know we are interested. I know City aren't yet sure he could yet end up at PSG.

IMO It was steered yesterday to gauge the public reaction and give Pogba and City a more informed take on things.

Can't fault Pogba, he's not making it about money, just wants to be winning things in a successful team.

I think we would be crazy not to give it a go, we have far bigger stars than United in our dressing room.

If its him and another Midfield player I can accept it. If its only him then I'd be concerned.

The weapons on choice would be stupid with a proper clinical forward.

Supply line, if the stories all pan out would be

Gomez & Cancelo - FB
Laporte - CB
FDJ - DM
KDB / Pogba / Silva - CM
Foden / Sterling / Grealish - FW

into Erling fucking Haaland. thats some obscene looking shit regardless of how they set up and with who.

Mourinho and Pogba feud began with missed alarm and ended in distrust

JACK GAUGHAN: The fractured relationship came to a head earlier this season when, in full glare of television cameras, Mourinho rebuked Pogba during an open training session at Carrington.

This is where I'm at with it. I don't want him and I don't think he fits us nor do I think he's good enough defensively for us. But I'm not legendary manager Pep Guardiola so if he sees something in him then we've got to trust him.

I think Pep might be ready to innovate again.

They offered. He rejected it out of hand last summer & apparently told them he was leaving this summer & that was that.

Maybe he is wiser than I first gave him credit for…

I think PSG is an easy option for Pogba, if he chooses to join us over PSG that is a good indicator of his attitude for me and shows he is ambitious and up for the challenge of competing in our squad.

 

[Dribble]

Pogba’s reputation is due to his reaction to criticism. He doesn’t seem to give a fuck and his reaction when the chips are down riles his own fans.

Do Rag fans expect him to have a mental breakdown to a defeat, or leave the pitch balling like a baby to prove he cares? :-|

I'd love to see him at City. If for no other reason than to compare how he performs in a coaching and management set-up like ours compared to the one over at the swamp. Like it or not, we need to grow our global presence and like Grealish, Pogba is a good looking fella that will help with our international media profile. Plus, if he were to succeed, TV cut-away shots to the chomping, seething, purple-headed GPC would be priceless.

This only makes sense if Pep is leaving..... :-(
