On his day, he’s unplayable. But most of the time, he doesn’t even now seem to try. He’s like a much better version of Balotelli - bags of ability but no mental strength or discipline. Unfortunately it’s that side of his game which is most prevalent hence the majority view on him. He’s not short of talent though.

I have never seen him have more than a good 15-20 minute spell in a game. Never ever takes a game by the scruff of the neck like Silva, KDB, Bernardo do on a regular basis. The most ridiculously overhyped player I have seen in my 50 years of watching football.

I think that’s the nail on the head about getting hold of the game more. He’s got all the tools but as it stands is almost the ultimate luxury player. No interest in grafting, picking up second balls and worst of all, rarely tracking back even when he’s given the ball away. Unforgivable, that.

Is he as good as Jordan Ibe?
 
Sorry but if you really think Pogba is a superb player than I can't take you seriously. Graeme Souness (one of the best to ever play for your club) has described him as "over-rated." I'll accept his view. Paul Scholes has called him average. I will agree with him as well. Pogba is a media myth for me.
He’s a social media footballer...
 
When was his day?
Name a match where he was “unplayable” for 90 minutes.
Never happened.
There are times recently when I've watched that shower on TV ( not much other decent comedy on at the mo) and honestly thought he wasn't playing. Now unless the Tv co's are editing him out he does very little, one storming cross field ball every so often but most of the time he gets dispossessed in mid field and his bottom lip hits the turf. He's not a fighter.
