Paul Pogba

[burning blue soul]

Great, another resentful asshole over something I myself don’t even remember, but clearly you do.
I don’t need sources to having watched a player and done my own research on his numbers, rather than being deceived by bias. Who needs that eh

I've defended you over some of the personal shit you've taken; and you yourself have called it out when it happened.
So, I would ask that the personal insults stop. Discuss and debate the topic, not the poster. It drags us all down.

 

[This and only this]

I can’t believe public opinion would be a factor. If you wanted to recruit someone because you were convinced they could improve your team, anyone else’s opinion would be irrelevant

This has got to be for Pogba's peace of mind as much as anything else. His experience of having his house burgled, being booed and shouted at for not being able to elevate the dross he's surrounded by, and slaughtered by media and his supports alike for getting a fucking haircut must make him and his family cautious about whether he'll be given a fair shake at City.

Given that this thread is full of shouty, bad takes that could have been lifted straight from the back page of the Daily Mail or Sun and you can see why.

Fair enough, but the guy was displaying pure crass smugness in his irony about me when we were just “debating the topic”

Debate the topic, then.

Too many are letting personal prejudice cloud opinion on here, these days.

Why has this thread suddenly jumped almost 100 pages in less than 24hrs?
Without scrolling back through everything, has something happened?

What makes someone a threat? Ake scores goals from corners, Dias doesn’t. Why?

All about heading ability mate, some players are good at defensive headers, ie just clearing the ball with no specific direction needed (Dias) , some are good at attacking headers aiming for goal (not Dias), some are good at both (Ake).

Totally agree.

This leak is mendacious. It makes absolutely no sense when taken into the way we operate.
