Would be good if he cared a bit more. He strolls through games but I guess there's always an excuse round the corner. Even half arsed like that he had some moments. How imagine if he decided to be focused the whole 90 minutes.

He disappeared further up the pitch though. I thought he started well. If a better striker got on the end of his Rashford pass, we'd be singing his praises.Mostly played safe and boring sideways passes like a lot of people want him to do. Made a few passes a better striker could have turned into assists and some other good forward passes to start a move.
I dont like to see him almost play as a defensive midfielder. Just play Fred instead of Lingard and have Pogba moved up a bit more.
I’m normally quite critical of him but he was clearly only 50% fit, thought he did well in those circumstances
Seems even Pogba's confidence is broken at the moment, either that or he genuinely can't be bothered anymore. Not sure which is the case
Always excuses for our supposed world class best player. #ItsNeverPogbaFaultWould be good if he cared a bit more. He strolls through games but I guess there's always an excuse round the corner.

Dunno why you've quoted me, I clearly left my opinion open to swinging either wayAlways excuses for our supposed world class best player. #ItsNeverPogba'sFault
Pogba is actually just a mid table player, who has the capacity to have a worldie a couple of times a season. So basically like Darren Fletcher, Phil Neville or Kleberson.
Please just sell this waste of space ASAP.
Or whatever excuse we can think of for him.Seems even Pogba's confidence is broken at the moment, either that or he genuinely can't be bothered anymore. Not sure which is the case
Pogba isn't good higher on the pitch, he is clearly uncomfortable and doesn't know where to be. He is good in that area when he runs from a deeper position when he follows the movement.He disappeared further up the pitch though. I thought he started well.

He didn't do a good job their this game either.Pogba isn't good higher on the pitch, he is clearly uncomfortable and doesn't know where to be. He is good in that area when he runs from a deeper position when he follows the movement.
I agree. Don't know why people want him higher up. We need better than Jesse fecking Lingard in the 10 position or we might as well not play with one. Any decent Prem player could do what Lingard did today. Run a round a lot and layoff passes to people less than 5 yards from him. fecking hell, put Paul Scholes on a fitness regime for a couple of months and he can arguably do a little better and Scholes is 45.Pogba isn't good higher on the pitch, he is clearly uncomfortable and doesn't know where to be.

He should start aiming for the middle of the goal, then one might sneak in the corner!I'm bored of his shots going just shy of the post, I'll tell you that much
I didn't mean that as an excuse, on the contrary I was clear he doesn't give a damn. He'll be just a footnote in United history I'm afraid.Always excuses for our supposed world class best player. #ItsNeverPogbaFault

Apologies: you were stating fact rather than excuse.I didn't mean that as an excuse, on the contrary I was clear he doesn't give a damn. He'll be just a footnote in United history I'm afraid.
Thought he did well too. Not the performance we hope to see from him but he was one of the few players showing above average talent.So it was just me who thought he played well?
He was alright. Fans demanding KDB performances though. No chance with our forward line that’s for certain. His too deep, it’s frustrating. The only player that can open the defence up with a pass.So it was just me who thought he played well?
It was a solid 2 man midfield performance which redcafe has been crying out for. No fancy tricks and flicks, kept the passes ticking over and made plenty of tackles and interceptions.Thought he did well too.

Even half fit he was one of the better players out there, the problem is the team as a whole was poor so looking a bit above the average of the team isn't really a great look. Reading this thread though, you'd think he was the reason the team lost. He's the only one who created some danger with his passing and relieved pressure from the United half when the defense was under pressure.Thought he did well too.

3 tacklesIt was a solid 2 man midfield performance which redcafe has been crying out for. No fancy tricks and flicks, kept the passes ticking over and made plenty of tackles and interceptions.
not good enough for redcafe though, they wanted 3 goals and 5 assists to go with it.
If only rashford could take a shot on his left foot we might be talking about another assist.
4 out of 10 from the MENSo it was just me who thought he played well?
I thought he kept the ball well, was disciplined, played a couple nice through balls to Rashford.4 out of 10 from the MEN
Keane who has been very fair tonight saying need more.
I won’t say what I thought.
He did play a couple of nice passes (when under no pressure), is that enough for a £100m midfielder in his prime whose won a World Cup and wants even more money to stay on (apparently).I thought he kept the ball well, was disciplined, played a couple nice through balls to Rashford.
