Guy is simply world class. Important to remember that France midfield is far more varied compared to United. Tolisso, Rabiot, Kante compared to the likes of Mctomminay / Fred it's laughable.

Great goal. Now we can sell him for good price and buy another defensive midfielder whos main skill will be "runs a lot and gives 110%".

We should hire some mafia and make him sign new contract.

I've continually said what "boss the midfield" means to me: run the game, be involved in almost everything. You can say Keano was a different player but I disagree - his performance at Juve in 1999 sums up what I mean by "boss"

I was asked to name players who i think bossed games and did -not sure how you can discount the names I gave because they (in your words, not mine) are GOATS. That's my point! Pogba isn't and never threatens to be for United
You're talking about arguably Keane's best performance as a United player, and using that as a benchmark for consistent performances you expect from Pogba. Keane himself didn't consistently play at that level. Likewise with the inclusion of the likes of Zidane and Cruyff.

Since Pogba returned from injury in January, I would say it's pretty obvious that he was involved in almost everything, made the entire team better and was a huge catalyst in our increase in performances. His performances against Milan, Liverpool, Spurs, Fulham, Sheffield, Roma & Burnley come to mind straight away, and i'm probably missing more.
He bossed those games, against both "big" and "small" teams - which is exactly what you want from a midfielder.
