Ndidi is a better player than him for that roleDoucoure of Watford for starters, if we are talking defensive midfielder.
This is a fair point although I think he’d be as or more expensive than Rice.Define what you want with better players? Are they better at being a destroyer? Because we need more of that considering we have Pogba. On the other hand, if Pogba leaves then that changes things.
Why wouldnt he leave Leicester?He is very good player, defensively he is very good and decent on the ball. Doubt he will leave Leicester though.
Thats what I thinkI think he's a bit underrated when you consider the hype around the likes of Neves and Rice and they are all of a similar age. Apparently recovered possession more times than anyone else. He's no Pogba on the ball but he definitely tries to pass forward more than guys like Gueye and Rice, and he is IMO a better ball carrier than both. If the plan is to play a 4231 he could be a solid addition as one of the two holders.
Because of their asking price.Why wouldnt he leave Leicester?
I mean, it's really not that hard and it has nothing to do with making it work for Pogba. It's about the team and the team will benefit with a destroyer because Matic is not as good at breaking up plays, and is slow.This is a fair point although I think he’d be as or more expensive than Rice.
I’d honestly rather get a bomb of a fee for Pogba and build a more functional midfield and attack at this point. It’s exhausting continually thinking about providing the perfect conditions for our supposed talisman to succeed in as he strolls about the pitch like he doesn’t give a toss.
Are you talking to yourself?Fair enough I thought you meant he wouldnt want to.
had a long nightAre you talking to yourself?
even if he wants to leave you assume he wants to sign for United?Why wouldnt he leave Leicester?
No of course not, we have had a few shitty seasons and are clearly the same level as Leicester now. Good point Jimmy.even if he wants to leave you assume he wants to sign for United?
Agreed re Matic. My point though was that if Pogba isn't here for the long term I'd much rather go after a different profile of player.I mean, it's really not that hard and it has nothing to do with making it work for Pogba.

because that was my pint wasn't it, not that other more appealing sides might be interested in himNo of course not, we have had a few shitty seasons and are clearly the same level as Leicester now. Good point Jimmy.
Guinness for me please.because that was my pint wasn't it, not that other more appealing sides might be interested in him
Interesting how long ago I posted that and how it reads like something I would still post today. I wanted him with us as a squad player then. Today, he would fit into our first eleven nicely.Nobody is talking about him because there are better players that United can attract.
Ndidi is ahead of Choudhury at the moment but being that Choudhury appears to be more versatile than Ndidi that could change this season. Brendan Rodgers works well with young players and he make take him to that next level.To those that watch Leicester more than just a few times, who is better between Ndidi and Choudhury? The latter has looked impressive the times I've seen Leicester recently.
Everybody else is talking about literally every other midfielder they have but no mention of him.
I haven't seen evidence of this when I watch him. He's got the legs and the hunger, but I have serious doubts about his passing.I think he's a bit underrated when you consider the hype around the likes of Neves and Rice and they are all of a similar age.
