Come on dude. Thought we were having a sane convo.This is the Pogba thread.

My point is, its ok to criticise him without bringing others into it. Stop with the excuses, he was poor in the run in last season too, when the team was very good, you going to blame his teammates for that too?Come on dude. Thought we were having a sane convo.
Good point. I think hes had covid for 3 yrsThe only question I have is he suffering some effects of COVID-19? Cuz his energy has been so poor so poor. So off the pace on and off the ball. At his best he is not a great midfield controller. But this is just as bad as any midfielder can play. He isn't doing the basics of midfield. If he starts next game I give up.
I've been wondering the same thing.The only question I have is he suffering some effects of COVID-19? Cuz his energy has been so poor so poor. So off the pace on and off the ball.

Pogba is the dude who ate the bat confirmedGood point. I think hes had covid for 3 yrs
These all are factors. You cant expect the players to perform when you dont give the right platform. Bruno has been equally bad towards the tail end of last season and this season (and people said it was tiredness) .My point is, its ok to criticise him without bringing others into it. Stop with the excuses, he was poor in the run in last season too, when the team was very good, you going to blame his teammates for that too?
He has played every position in midfield for United and has not found consistency, thats just the fact.
Im a massive Pogba fan but sometimes just call a spade a spade, his form right now (and for the past 5+ months) is shite, same can't be said for Bruno and Martial
Miss placing simple passes and getting robbed of the ball in the middle of the park is on him, not Ole not Bruno not Martial.
Ole isn't the manager we need, but thats a separate issue
It's easier to count the number of match winning displays he's had in his time here, and you could do that using Captain Hook's bad hand.It’s crazy how many people are acting all surprised at his recent bad performances. It’s only 3 games. He’s had two or three times that many shit displays in every season at the club. This is nothing new.
It’s all well and good saying that, but think of the YouTube compilations, will you? They’re integral to fooling people, particularly those who don’t watch matches. Those little meaningless touches are the lifeblood of his reputation.I'd take anyone with energy and who can the pure basics over him every single day.
We have Bruno for the fancy shit, we don't need Pogba rotating 3 times on the ball before passing it on.
He will always remain talented but its pointless. He is just not motivated enough to play for us and change his ways. There is no place for players like him in our squad. Constantly dawdling on the ball, needless flicks, slowing down tempo... he changed his style for France but wants to be the big man here. And I blame Ole too. Clearly the lad needs benching but can't understand what's going on in the manager's mind.What a curious case Pogba is. On one hand we have undoubtedly one of the most talented players in the world and on his day, the best midfielder in the world. On the other hand, we have a player who looks uninterested half the time, and put him up against a midfielder who has a good engine, and he can become almost useless and make players like Mark Noble look world class. So what's the answer for him? Personally I think we should have sold him this year. I know we wouldn't get what he's "worth" but we would still get good money for him. That could have gone a long way in bringing in the right type of players to fit Ole's style....
He is not.Pogba is an attacking midfielder. I think we need to stop kidding ourselves that playing him in a defensive role is best suited for him.
He is an attacking player. He just prefers to do it from deep half of the time. He likes to dictate the play from deep. But put a little pressure on him and he's useless, not to mention how useless he is when we don't have possession...He is not.
Good point. I think hes had covid for 3 yrs
Well put.His performances with the ball are not good enough to justify how bad he is off it.
True. People are also wrong to call him inconsistent. He's the very opposite, actually very consistent player. If you look closely you will see exactly what he is. Strolling around most of the time, bursting into life in moments. Add to that losing the ball in dangerous area due to stupid dribbling or misplaced pass, and you see a picture of player that he is - on regular basis.It’s crazy how many people are acting all surprised at his recent bad performances. It’s only 3 games. He’s had two or three times that many shit displays in every season at the club. This is nothing new.
Has he had Covid for 4 seasons? The man's never played with high energy levels for us.The only question I have is he suffering some effects of COVID-19? Cuz his energy has been so poor so poor. So off the pace on and off the ball. At his best he is not a great midfield controller. But this is just as bad as any midfielder can play. He isn't doing the basics of midfield. If he starts next game I give up.
Completely agree.For me the most overrated player I've seen i've seen play for Utd.
Occasional moments of brilliance, outdone by consistent shit performances.
This. He is useless when he has the ball as he loses it so often and when we dont have the ball he may as well not be on the field.He is an attacking player. He just prefers to do it from deep half of the time. He likes to dictate the play from deep. But put a little pressure on him and he's useless, not to mention how useless he is when we don't have possession...
I can understand people's frustrations with Paul so far this season even though he looks unfit to me still but this post is absolute garbage.What is this stupid new gimmick of wearing a basketball sleeve? You're playing football you prat. Get rid asap. Absolute clown.
Each to their own. It's a genuine query. Can someone tell me why we have a basketballer waltzing round the pitch being tactically inept and continually losing the ball. He's a kid in his football head. This level of football won't change until he hits at least 30 years old. Quote me on that.I can understand people's frustrations with Paul so far this season even though he looks unfit to me still but this post is absolute garbage.
Do you know why he is wearing the sleeve? Respect the slightly cool Compton tag you have and refrain from such prejudiced clown posts.
You have outdone your previous post with more rubbish.Each to their own. It's a genuine query.

There's no prejudice here. I've stuck up for this guy so much but it's getting ridiculous now. I'm no Graeme Souness but I'm allowed to voice my opinion on a football forum. So politely do one.
