Paul Pogba

Fuck me, has someone genuinely brought race into this?

People hate Pogba because of the dabbing shite, the haircuts (no idea why,) and his reportedly shite play for the Rags - yes the fucking Rags.

I detest with a passion the dabbing bollocks and if he came here, scored and done that shit I'd boo the fucker.

That said, if it's a free I'd take a punt on him. There's still a very, very good footballer in there.

However, fuck all on here is about race.
When people bring up his “lifestyle” when there is nothing there, and it appears to have been motivated over press narratives that literally racially motivated historically, one can definitely say race is playing a part. If it were only the rest…

You think it's racism then? Are you calling posters on here racists?
 
I will use my own eyes thanks. He does not pass and move with speed and incisiveness at all that i have seen. He knocks a decent long ball once in a blue moon and most of the rest is safe short crab passing or back around the defensive line. Direct progressive play is not something i would attribute to him at all.

Yep like Rodri was his first season look at him now IF we get him Pep will sort him out in that department

Agree that nothing like that on the forum although tbf I read original poster who mentioned it as more like "he's had a bad rap in the press and from pundits the same way Sterling has, and we've all seen an element of that has been about race/stereotypes". Like the thing with his tattoo. The way Adarabioyo buying a house for his mum was reported vs the way it was reported for Foden.

Maybe I was misreading but that's the way I took it.

You would pay him 500k a week? and probably destabilise the pay structure? If he came on a free and was paid the same as Bernie then I'd say why not..but not 500k a week
 
You have admitted to being entirely subjective, my friend, on the observation of a rival
Having seen him ruin transitions with my own eyes etc, on a regular basis, and without clouding judgement with anything outside of his work on the pitch that is objectivity. You should probably look up the meaning of the word, it may be of help in your career choice as a reporter/journalist.

I do not hate him, never met him. I am solely looking at his ability in his work and how it would work with us, dispassionately and objectively. His aptitude for us seems lacking.

he doesnt even make 300k now acccording to most reports if the stories of a paycut are true, and the heavily back end the bonuses. Could be quite the deal, they'd be made at least not to explore it. Home grown, WC (yes i know), player etc

Don’t worry. There is now way in a million years we’ll pay him that, nor will he be our top earner. He’d need to take a massive pay cut to come here so if he does it’ll show he means business. Doubt he Will though if psg are offering that kind of money

Think you are right. Psg will offer bigger wages.

Didn't think about the HG element.
 
He would take him and that is why the interest has come.

I have no knowledge of Frenkie, another player Pep and City tried to sign, previously.

Still a feeling he could end up at Paris but we will take Pogba if he wants it.

This is not a rumour, let me be clear.

Tolm - my biggest fear with this is yes we end up with Pogba but at the expense of Ten Haag & the rags
snagging Frenkie De Jong as his replacement!
 
His biggest problem is that he has lost his 'will to win' for me.

If the club make a move for him, they will absolutely have done the homework on him.

I just don't think he fits the profile of player we want. We tend to go for low profile players who work hard and have immaculate technique. I think Pogba has the technique and ability, but he hasn't got that drive in him that we need. When United play badly, he never steps up and pulls the team with him - going off at Anfield was disgraceful as he knew what was coming.

I think it's all agent and paper talk anyway and he will end up in Spain and United will have lost £90m on a player who did zilch for them :) It's almost like he was a City fan the way he played!!!
