There are different kinds of back pain, you know. Probably didn't feel like traveling would be the best idea, but he has had a couple of days to work with the physios. Him playing some minutes in a closed-off friendly does not mean he refused to go to Wales just because.
Ahh cool, you must have the exact same pain he does to be able to speak so assuredly on the subject.
I'm saying back pains can take a while and actually my physio recommended I refrain from travelling. None of us know what kind of back pains he's experiencing. My point is they could very well he real and none of us have a clue what's going on.

Why would Pogba refuse to go to Wales but happily go to the other side of the fricking world? Some people need to drop their agendas.

Yeah, I mixed you up with someone who was talking about his absense in Wales was down to him not wanting to go, sorry! If he played some minutes today he should be okay. Probably a test run carefully monitored by the Staff.

Traveling with any sort of back pain is rarely a good idea, especially if you are a tall fella, like Pogba. I can attest to that, being 197cm myself.

This. Not going to play so why bother bringing him to Cardiff to sit in the stands in his suit.

This whole agenda against Pogba is so counter productive it is surreal.

So Pogba is so ashamed for playing for United that he only accepts playing behind closed doors for us now? So sick of him tbf.

Options:

1. Pogba took a strop and refused to play against A.C. Milan in a glamour friendly, but agrees to turn out against Blackburn under-23’s. This is to force a move or something.

2. Pogba had back spasms which resolved enough for him to get some minutes.

3. Pogba was sent on a recruitment mission to persuade his old pal Dybala to join.

Ye, he had his at least 5-6 days funny that
Backs are like that. They can go out for a day a week or even a month. When it goes you just don't know how long it will last.

Is he pushing for a move? Yes. Will he get the move? I think it's too late now even if somebody comes in matching our evaluation.

I woke up up yesterday with a stiff back it cleared up by about 18:00 hours yesterday and wasn't even an issue today. It's funny how that works.

I woke up up 5-6 days ago with a stiff back it cleared up by about 18:00 hours yesterday and wasn't even an issue today. It's funny how that works.

Ole said last night after the Milan game he felt some pain in his back and couldnt be risked before the first game of the season. Fine. Less than 16 hours later he is playing. He probably doesnt like Wales
Didn't get there on time because he took his Rolls Royce instead of the plane.

Even though I am not expecting much from Sanchez anymore, I am glad that his recent injury wasn't too bad and he has started to get some minutes under his belt again.

Blackburn sending their U23s to get slaughtered? <- negative way of seeing it.
Positively, they get to taste/experience EPL level first team. Also, maybe Blackburn got paid for this by our club, idk.

Game
Sanchez, Pogba, Lingard, Greenwood, Chong, Romero, Darmian, Dalot, James, Fred, Jones and Smalling.

Guess that means only Lukaku out through the door.

:nervous:Again no Gomes eh.
