People who think he's performed at the level of "one of the best cm's in the league" really do have a misguided opinion of Pogba.
When a players hype is bigger than the level of performances he gives, that tells you everything you need to know. His footballing performances for us have not been good enough. He has not had a consistent run of good form for us, ever. Glimpses? Yes. The odd brilliant game? Yes. Overall? Poor
He doesn't have the characteristic to be a driving midfielder? Really?
He's athletic, He's strong, He's got a good engine, He can pass, he can shoot, he's good in the air...……..Whats missing to make him a good midfielder?
Pogba's problem is he doesn't want to do the hard graft. Jose tried him in a 2 because he's technically good enough to be there, but Pogba didn't want put the hard miles in and work hard for the team, put the tackles in, follow runners etc....he proved then while he has all the physical attributes and talent, he hasn't really got a good overall footballing brain (why he was always out of position, doing stupid flicks in the wrong area of the pitch & being caught in possession)
So we tried him in a 3, cos he'll be "world class" in the left of a midfield 3. He's far from world class i'm afraid.
People need to stop believing this guy is the answer to our problems. He's proven he's not.
He wants to leave, so we will never see Pogba come good here, ever. Time to cash in when his hype is high and we can get 100+mil for him. If we get anywhere near 100mil for him we are laughing
