We lose him and we are in a world of trouble without a world class replacement.

If he goes then I'd say we need both Rice and Grealish in to improve the team overall

Superb today. Aside from Zidane & Real, I do wonder why he'd want to leave us at this stage. We look far ahead of the process than Juve do right now.

When on song, there is no one like him in the game. He just glides past people, has that silky touch but is also so physical. One annoyance is that backheel goal attempt when I feel he could have headed it.

That was a seriously unbelievable performance. Zidane esque. Towered over the Spurs defence and bullied them at times with physicality and skill.

Really loved how he took it to the corner flag in the last 15 minutes. Just toyed with them and showed how much he really wanted the win today. Showed great maturity and put in a fantastic performance.

I said after Thursday that I felt like Pogba was just slowly playing himself back to full fitness. Based on today's showing, I was right.

Paul with two great away performances in two seasons at Jose’s spurs. Glad he is giving it all for the shirt this season. If it’s his last then hopefully 2nd and the EL is a enough for us fans to part with him on good terms.

Unplayable for pockets of the 2nd half, and, if you're watching astutely, you can see that opposing players don't know whether to try get tight or stand off him, in the end, they have to let him do what he's going to, whether that be effective or not. All comes down to whatever the outcome, it's literally in Pogba's hands(feet). A very interesting thing to watch, something many of the top players have.

People clamouring for him to be gone better take stock of how hard what he does is to replace, and, how much it would cost to do so.
You know, in the first half I was thinking one of the biggest issues he has at times is his touch is too good. Sometimes he'll trap the ball but it will end up too close to him or under his feet and it causes him to have to take another touch to move out. I don't think it happened once in the second half.

He’s unique in this sense. If he’s on song he can absolutely bully players.

The mix of power and skill is majestic.

Really it's only Real or PSG who could tempt him. But I can see why he might want to go there. He will have a better chance at titles at either of them, let's not kid ourselves. He will probably get a hefty pay rise and sign-on bonus to boot.

We might be second but there's still loads of if and buts about this United team and we're not contenders for major honours just yet.

Genius today. Please convince him to stay. If we lose him then its another top player to replace but if we keep him then its about adding more top players to the team.

I don't see Real paying for him but it's possible. From what I've read and heard on podcasts, he's not drawn to PSG.

Sloppy at times in the first half but went into beast mode second half. I guess the thought of losing to Jose spurred him on.

Play like that more please!

Maguire played a really weird ball from a free kick out to the left wing. Was destined to bounce out for a throw in and I was questioning it until I saw that it was Pogba. Instantly thought "oh yeah good ball that" he then controlled it on his chest as if it were nothing.
