I agree, there are glaring holes in our no.10 and RW spot. I think that we would be right on City's tails if we had Pogba for every game, he's been that good this season.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

If our reliance on him is true have we ever before been so dependant on one player?
I mean even without Cantona we could at least still put together a functioning attack.

We miss you please come back in great style!
Actually the idea is not to reach him , but others here to understand that loving a club is not only due to expressing at interviews , but thinking on and off the pitch what your behaviour lead to and try to be a one to admire at - and how must I be one of those when his days are spend in marketing videos and not relaxing and preparing for your matches what was the reason for his injury and now without any real reason doing a mega stupid foul leading to a match ban for the biggest autumn derby ?
I don't really think we are a one man team because of Pogba. Yes, we are reliant on him but simply because he makes our midfield click in the same sense that we are also reliant on Matic. Midfield is a crucial part of our ball possession play. We depend on all our first choice midfielders to play in order to dominate, not just Pogba.
Its official now Pogba is our most important outfield player, more than Lukaku. We have struggled whenever Pogba is absent. He and De Gea are the only players in our squad who can be classified as world class players, others range from average to good. We need other players to step up.
What the feck are you talking about? Is that you Graeme Souness? Pogba is by far our best player, making up nonsense to try and criticise him shows how pathetic you are.
The foul wasn't stupid on Pogba's part. Bellerin stuck his leg out in an awkward position Pogba tried to get past him and accidentally stood on his leg. There was no bad intention on his part.

Another one who doesn't realise that being a best player is not only one's technical ability , but is far more
Again with the "off the pitch" shit. What players do in their lives should only truly matter to them. As long as he isn't doing anything illegal or anything that jeopardizes his health, I couldn't give a feck about all that. Posts like that are truly mental to me.
So far this season he's missed:
- 10/18 league games (including the West Brom game)
- 3/6 CL games
- 2/2 cup games
That's more than half our games even if we exclude the less meaningful ones in the cup. Hopefully he'll be fresh for the crunch of fixtures in the holiday period. We kinda need him badly because without him the midfield has little invention. Sad!

So not relaxing in his "off the pitch" time which led to his serious injury has nothing to do ? Mhm , okay .
Are you permanently drunk?
News flash, any player can get injured for whatever possible reasons. He got injured during a match so can anyone say with absolute or relative certainty that it was because he posted a video of him dancing
It's one thing to try to find explanations and another to convince yourself of things you have no real proof to base your assumptions on. Plenty of players are very active on social media and don't get injured, where is the explanation for that Doc ?Need to try and squeeze another 3 points out of the WBA game and push on when he's back.
We are going to miss him big time at West Brom. They are a very physical side and can bully us all game. Hopefully Jose can find a place for Zlatan in the starting XI
Please point to me the dancing videos of rojo,shaw,ibra who also were injured for long periods of time.
That really puts our season in perspective. People talk about being too reliant one one player but you can have a team full of very good players and you're still going to be significantly weakened when you miss someone like Pogba. Same thing happened to City when De Bruyne knackered his knee and Liverpool when Mane went off to the ACN. To still be comfortable in second place in the league - and in all cup competitions - as we come to the half-way point of the season is a seriously creditable achievement.
Correct.
To be classified as an elite level team, IMO, we need at least 3 World Class outfield players. At present, we have only 1 (and he hardly plays), which is no good.

After the injury it was said by the team that he has not kept the advices of the medical team , the social media thing was a joke by me paraphrasing their words , but now I understand that obviously it was tough to be understood by you
Quote where this was said. Tbf that happens when you use shit humor.
For example - http://www.news.com.au/sport/footba...k/news-story/668f5a846cea480ce8795f6f5f8c746f
They said it in other words due to respect to him , but the hidden meaning is obvious .
Tbf intelligent humor is the right thing to say , not shit .
Yes, obviously, it's like Sergio Ramos, so overrated, all these commercials, no focus and stupid fouls, why do people even rate these types of players, as a matter of fact, these players are only at the club to generate money, it's not even about football anymore. Pogba not a world class players, nobody is, only Cristiano Ronaldo is because he's never been sent off for his team and has never done a commercial. Even going back to past legends at the club I don't ever remember Beckham or Giggs losing Thier focus and being sent off, oh and making commercials.
Surely any of you that actually go to Old Trafford to watch the game live see the gulf between Pogba and pretty much the rest of our midfield. I have said it before but it literally is like watching that one player in the under 12's team who is just completely head and shoulders above the rest. It is like Pogba is playing with school children at times. That is how much we miss him.
Exactly and that is why we need him to urgently start being a 100 million pounds player in his mind , not only in his feet
Yeah that does sound like somebody who was goofing around rather than focusing on his training
Why is the hair update thread closed?

Also rises with every game he plays.
Thank feck he's back for the next game. Atleast we managed 6/9 points.
Thank God he is back. As an extra added bonus, it pushes Herrera further out of the team and when Fellaini is back, I expect Herrera to be out of the match day squad too.
I’d expect him to play against Bristol given he’s been sitting out three matches now.
Matic just as good and doesn’t go missing like Pogba did in some games last season
Excited that our magician is back!! What a player he is, City were so lucky he wasn't involved in that game. He definitely should start against Bristol, but even thou JM will play him the whole match, I believe he should only play 60mins then young Tommy can get 30.
not true
Nah.
Is he available for tomorrow?
I think so
yes he is, his ban has been served
Matic is not on Pogbas level. Pogba is good enough to walk into any team on the planet and start. Pogba goes missng because he bears the WHOLE creative burden of our team.
Matic is just as good as Pogba? What planet are you on?
