I dont know if the Arnold quote about Pogba is genuine or not but the fact Pogba had a bad relationship with English press means absolutely nothing as to whether he'd be leaking.
Raiola would leak stuff to the English press to further Pogba's situation at United. So would his lawyer who was basically living with him in Cheshire.
In what other walk of life would a person publicly berate something [read, Pogba slating UK news outlets] then turn round & help them out? It simply doesn’t make sense to the scale people want to believe & isn’t a conclusion anyone would draw in most instances. It’s funny how much credit people give Pogba as if he’s a peer worrying about the things we do as fans on this forum. It’s easy to make comments like ‘
Raiola would leak’ then leave that hanging as fact, & I’m not saying he didn’t but of all agents Raiola would just do an interview & talk himself, it wasn’t some covert project with Pogba & United.
The trouble with the incessant Pogba is ‘the reason for X’ is that the same outlets you want to believe were leaked to were the ones writing all sorts about him throughout his United return. Does that mean he didn’t leak stuff? Of course not, he was a gobshite as we’re those close to him but surely it’s time for fans to broaden their horizons a little. We should be far more concerned with the access journalists have to our England internationals & how no matter how bad certain ones performed last season the criticism never matched it.
Bookmark whichever posts you like. By the way Richard Arnold was quoted saying 2 of the leakers have left. I might be wrong with Pogba but I couldnt be happier now that he has left after all the years we have put up with his and his agent craps. All I was saying, if it quacks like a duck, maybe it is a duck. The fact that after he left he made a documentary about himself and started dissing United told me he didnt really enjoy his time at the club and guess who is often a leaker and gossips? disgruntled players. Happens in all organizations not only United.
He wasn’t the only duck is the point. You do understand that ‘
2 of’ would mean more to follow & that not only the aforementioned have left this closed season. The documentary has no tangible link to the press leaks but see how you’ve made a tenuous link & formed a narrative around it. He was unhappy = he leaked to press, which ignores his fractious relationship with said press & the fact he/his representation were more than happy to talk to the press abroad themselves throughout his time here.
To clarify, I think it’s likely that things Pogba have said have been reported on as leaks but the rather birdseye ‘players hate training’ stuff we see is just as likely to be mumblings from a few players as any one.
