Why is there a thread on this and why is it 10 pages?

All yesterday the media is telling me Pogba got the Rona...

But so has Serge Aurier at Spurs so has a bunch a Chelsea players...

Click worthy content cause it’s Pogba? Cafe looking like click hungry media with threads like this
Because United's big time, and Pogba's big time. That's pretty evident.

You have some unhealthy hatred for Pogba, nothing more than that.
Behave yourself with hatred, I don't hate anybody at United, but i'll climb into anybody whose performance levels drop well below what I know they are capable of, and Saint Paul whether you like it or not, or agree with me, is one that regularly does and usually when we need him the most, and I mark him accordingly as I do with all our players, if as you say I hated him so much i'd have marked him a darn sight lower than 5.4 over the season don't you think?

I wish we got some indication of his state of health. Most likely he is asymptomatic but it's not a given.

I'm not disagreeing with you but there's a performance thread for that. This one is about his health so it seems off-topic.

How else would you describe it then ? The man has a virus and the first thing you needed to tell us was that you're not a fan.
You hate the man, just assume it like a big man because it's very obvious. How you rate him shows nothing (specially if the said rating is too low).

Had no idea he had a pregnant wife. Wish him well and that her and their unborn are protected.

Guy is a wum and a parody on this site. Thought you knew that?

The pearl clutching at the start of this thread over somebody admitting with some refreshing honesty that they don't really like him as a player :lol: .. utter weirdos.

Horrid news for the team in general really, especially disruptive to the cohesion of the unit in a pre-season that is already heavily disrupted due to the virus. I thought his fitness through the restart was very suspect, will be interested to monitor how it is now and going forward. Especially when he is in a contract year.

Well for one of our better performers (when fit) that is quite low. What did Lingard or Dan James get? 2? Ohterwise your rating doesn't make any sense and certainly doesnt support your point at all.

Again behave, I haven't got it in me to hate anybody that hasn't hurt me or mine, i'm not sure how you can.

And as for the rating when you consider there are many on the forum that give Pogba 8/10 every match just for putting his boots on the right feet I think as somebody that supposedly hates him i've marked him quite well, and fairly.

Right, because the caf - and the internet more broadly - is really lacking in people that speak their mind...

I’ve seen people everywhere STILL underestimating Covid, even after months of lockdown and ruining the job market, and basically changing our way of life.
Absolutely incredible people thinking that doctors are just arbitrarily claiming that people are dying of Covid and we will “never know the real numbers”, yes chances are Pogba will be fine thankfully, but surely this thread is just to wish him well and not share stupid conspiracies, only on the cafe can a thread like this turn into a dumpster fire.
The Redcafe Covid19 thread is amongst the finest discussions and repositories of data and information Ive come across in the mainstream, some of us have been camped there for months reading excellent inputs.

When I read this thread, its blatantly obvious those who dont know what they are talking about because they haven't educated themselves on the virus, and are making wild assumptions or crude generalisations within their own version of the truth.

I also dont rate Pogba as a player for Manchester United, but getting covid19 has nothing to do with him being a footballer!
Can't you just wish him well as a member of our team, like I did, and without any other caveat?
Intrigued to know the difference between you and I on this matter.

Many athletes have had covid and have fully recovered. Yes there is a very small chance he could have complications but it's not something to worry about.

I'm expecting him to be training in a couple of weeks.

Doesn't change the fact that rating him below the average ratings can in no way support your argument, that you don't have a completely irrational dislike for him.
Yeah okay mate whatever, JHC

Love to stop and chat some more but i'm off to the 'Apart from being Welsh what else is Dan James good at' thread to delete the part in my post in that thread being nearly complementary about Pogba before anybody notices ....

Sorry about my reply if you'd just picked up the tail end of the thread and not followed the laugh-fest since the beginning, but if you had I wish i'd put it in Capital letter .
Only caught the tail end of it. Sounded like you were criticizing his performances in a thread about his health. My apologies if I've misunderstood.
