Pogba is doing fine. Ran the midfield, created and distributed. He's not going to win games by himself. This team's problems are up front.
Exactly. If Ibra could finish his chances he'd have had 2 assists today alone. Several more this season.Everybody barking up the tree trying to pin this on Pogba.
But you still don't get all the hype and he's never going to dominate the midfield........He played very well today. Very unlucky not to win the game for us.
This is good to see. You are much more objective than many others who can't see past his price tag.He played very well today. Very unlucky not to win the game for us.
Gotta give Rory credit in this case, he's at least giving Pogba his due when he thinks he's played wellBut you still don't get all the hype and he's never going to dominate the midfield........
It's because Carrick is not the teams future and Jose is building a team now. It's better not to have someone who is going to be gone in a couple of years ensure that people like Pogba and Herrera dont take responsibility for dictating games.Unfortunately our two best hopes in Martial and Rushford are not performing to the levels we expect. Basically the front 3 have been the problem in most of our games with their movement and lack of goals.
The midfield which includes Pogba have dominated only to be let down by impotence of the attack. What I really don't understand is lack of game time for Carrick. He seems ideally suited to give Pogba the freedom to not worry about his defensive duties.
Yet Ibra...It's because Carrick is not the teams future and Jose is building a team now. It's better not to have someone who is going to be gone in a couple of years ensure that people like Pogba and Herrera dont take responsibility for dictating games.
But it isn't the first time Pogba has played well tho. Nowt wrong with criticism but jeez...Gotta give Rory credit in this case, he's at least giving Pogba his due when he thinks he's played well
Those numbers are quite deceiving seeing as most of his passes were within 5 yards and many were sideways and backwards.Pogba's game by numbers vs Burnley: 3 tackles won
4 dribbles
6 chances created
6 shots
97 passes
91% pass accuracy
If you are claiming he didn't shine, struggled or failed to cope with the pace/pressure of the game last night, you deserve to be bitch slapped by a UFC champion who is above 6 ft 5 in height....till you are in need of dentures
Here and now is just as important as the future, if not more.It's because Carrick is not the teams future and Jose is building a team now. It's better not to have someone who is going to be gone in a couple of years ensure that people like Pogba and Herrera dont take responsibility for dictating games.
He's very good when pressed, excellent feet on him.If he has time and space on the ball he looks very very good. If he's pressed he looks like an academy player.
EXACTLY.Times have changed, I bet if we had an 18 year old Ronaldo in the team now many of them would want him dropped. I think while the winning came easy and the trophies stacked up people didn't care if they had a sloppy game.
Now every touch and pass is under the microscope, They expect everything to be flawless.
You must have been watching a different game. Most of his passes were forward.Those numbers are quite deceiving seeing as most of his passes were within 5 yards and many were sideways and backwards.
He had some great crosses and created chances but he also was the reason for a few of Burnleu's counterattacks
Lies. His heat map for the match does not show sideways and backwards passingThose numbers are quite deceiving seeing as most of his passes were within 5 yards and many were sideways and backwards.

Looks decent enough on the face of it, out of interest, how does that compare with other CMs, say City's, Scousers and Arsenals?Pogba's game by numbers vs Burnley: 3 tackles won

They made 1 counter attack because of Pogba's mistake, that was when he fail to control the ball and deflected it. Apart from that Pogba's was superb and not just simple passes. He showed his passing range and also weight of his passes was superb.Those numbers are quite deceiving seeing as most of his passes were within 5 yards and many were sideways and backwards.

We need goal scorers. There isn't a midfielder who is solution for the problem we are having, that is scoring goals.Pogba is not the problem.
Unfortunately, he is not the solution, either...
