They should ban that bellend shouting feck off at his own players anyway. Whether or not you agree with Pogba's attitude and effort, that's not on.
I agree. Whatever you think of Pogba he didn't deserve to be singled out and abused like that.

Do we not think a similar thing would have happened if it was let's say Young, Sanchez, or Lukaku instead of Pogba?

Whilst I am not happy with Pogba, the fan in question probably did go a bit over the top to be honest, however, I do think fans should be allowed to express their emotion.

I bet it wouldn't have happened to De Gea, Matic or Jones.

I don't think any of our players deserve to be singled out and abused especially if you're our top goal scorer and have the most assists. The guy could've expressed his opinion without telling him to 'feck off' and shouting something about Instagram which Pogba uses as much as any other player in the modern game. Pathetic behaviour if you ask me. That guy probably clapped everyone else.

Yes it is. They should have thrown their season tickets at him too. They have no use now.

Would be so United to lose Angel Gomes without giving him a shot while rolling out the same deadwood that has got us no where.

He's about to turn 19. He's not wrong. He has seen him mate move abroad and light up the league.

Why? They are on the lookout for good kids like everyone else.
Do you think he'd play more matches for PSG than us?

Not really worried about this. We haven't lost any youngsters apart from Pogba. If he's serious about leaving then perhaps a club in Holland or Germany would be better suited for him.

Why? Like not on the wind-up, why should the club ban a fan for expressing his opinion at a player?
I've had a debate in the Pogba thread about this, and I was initially completely on your side because I thought he was just expressing his opinion based on Pogba's reaction. That's completely fine.

But I've since seen the video from behind the fan and all he's doing is shouting "feck off you're shite". That's not on.

He does need to develop more physically though? I'm sure he'll be involved more next season, nonsense story.
I worry about all this they have to develop, so you get the Danny Welbeck physique and the Marcus Rashford physique. I know what they are probably getting at and it will likely happen, but sometime these kids think it means developing loads of abs and losing something from their game in the process.

He’ll get strong and adapt with the more games he’s plays the gym can go on inbetween and as he ages.

Like you said growing abs in a summer will change nothing.

Ah right. Agreed then as I haven’t seen the second video you’ve mentioned.

Yeah, I don't really understand the issue. He does need to develop physically and he'll be put on a programme this summer to do so. He'll then have a pre-season, which he'll definitely get lots of minutes in to prove that's he's ready.

I dare say Gomes would play more minutes for PSG than us. At PSG he'd have more competition for places, but they play plenty of matches against teams where he could gain first team minutes nicely without the pressure of starring at United.

Okay. I mean Pepe is quite clearly not average, but if you say so.
Fair enough mate, just my opinion, I think wherever Pepe goes he'll be exposed as a mid level player, there's a reason Bayern opted against him, someone like Brandt would make more sense IMO.

Why? Like not on the wind-up, why should the club ban a fan for expressing his opinion at a player?
Because if you did that in the street you'd be in trouble, you can't just go around yelling abuse at people, but he did it because he had the cocoon of being in a football ground.
