You're on the money mate. The players get Ego's the minute they pull on their jumper. The whole "we are united" is just laughable. Its exactly like how Liverpool players and fans acted into the 90's after the era of dominance. And how did that work out for them? I see united going down an identical path. The superiority they show is a joke.
Thats why we want the media to keep biging them up. It's like 'the emperor's new clothes ' the club and fans still think they are on a par with Real and Barca. When in reality they are the history boys. Just look at our signings to theirs, barring major career threatening injuries, we have the nucleus of the squad for 5 to 10 years. One of the Barca Boys at our club said "the squad transfers in 5 year circles"
 
In fairness, Pogba has all the tools. But he's at a shit club, surrounded by shit players, coached by a complete C U next tuesday and he watches the ball sail over his head for 90% of the games. Having said that, he wouldn't get in our first XI anyway.
His physical attributes are fine, i think his mentality is questionable. He gets wound up and disheartened pretty easily and this shows in his efforts, lack of defensive duty, chooses side passes far to often when he is the one tasked with driving forward. So far i have seen an average midfielder. If i were a utd fan i would want less dabbing and haircuts and more application on the field.
 
At the beginning of the season, their fans and the media generally believed that they would win the league because of the signings they'd made and the Mourinho second season myth. Now that's not happening, the excuses pour forth like the sourest lemon juice: referees, Pep time, injuries, money spent and ludicrous sponsorship. You have bought unstrategic statement signings that have not worked out, and for the price of Pogba and Lukaku, we bought Sane, Jesus, Bernardo, Gundogan and Stones!
 
Mou has been pretty transparent in his open courting of PSG while he has waited on a bumper contract with the Glazer group, helps that PSG have stability issues with Emery unable to maintain team harmony. The irony of course is that Mou is known for breaking harmony rather than creating it. Mou loves a rich benefactor, curious to see how this plays out because I suspect the Glazers are not amused
 
I noticed on MOTD last night the he hardly completed a pass successfully? Every time he seemed to give posession away. Don't rate him at all, not a patch on KDB -Fact!
you have better eyes than me all i saw was him being cut off the screen he was so far behind play,never once did i see him in burnleys box!

Agreed, but back in the 90's Liverpool fans were spared the indignity of their fall from grace being thrown in to stark relief, by an exciting and all conquering Everton.

The rags on the other hand....

Pogba wouldn't last 5 minutes at our club under Pep. Pogba is the definition of a show pony. All about himself and his "look at me" haircuts, and that ridiculous flapping of his arms crap that he does after a goal, that my 10 year old son does with his school mates. We are all about the team and not about the individual. The fact he's been known to sleep in and have club staff come to his bedroom door to wake him up his f*****g hilarious. What sort of expample does that set when the face of your organisation is pulling crap like that?

The one thing that strikes me about Pogba is, i've never, ever seen him sprint, with or without the ball. He just ambles....

When we don't have the ball, Kev busts a gut and is on it within seconds. Pogba just seems to amble about the pitch, thinking he's the dogs, thinking he has people to do his running for him.... which, at United, he doesn't....

He was pressed by Bristol players, and more often than not, he lost the ball in tangle... When he has time, he can pick out a decent long ball... but, even then, it's 1 in 10...
