Shameless Musketeer
Champions of England!!! at least youth level
He's got great talent, but I've never been completely sold on him for some reason (and that's not trying to be bitchy because he might be leaving).Not wanting to be too critical but I wouldn't rate him in our top5 players at reserve level this season. He's been average.
One of my largest gripes with him, I use this as an example all the time but at the FAYC game against West Ham that was straight away noticeable. He was better then most on the pitch but weren't showing it, letting the game bypass him.Gotta give him the benefit of the doubt as he's returning from a layoff and hasn't played in a while, does have a tendency to drift in and out of games far too often though.
To be fair mate, looks like Fergie rates him the most aswell who thinks he's gonna first team regular next season.He's got great talent, but I've never been completely sold on him for some reason (and that's not trying to be bitchy because he might be leaving).
I don't think his positional sense is anywhere near good enough yet and he seems content to be on the periphery & stroll through games at times. I'm not saying he won't be a good player, but I've never understood why so many on here were so enamoured with him.
As I said he's like a Midfield version of Berbatov, he just seems so lazy at times.One of my largest gripes with him, I use this as an example all the time but at the FAYC game against West Ham that was straight away noticeable. He was better then most on the pitch but weren't showing it, letting the game bypass him.
I give him the benefit of the doubt though, when he is on he is ON
For whoever manages to sign all our youngsters.Well done lads,the future's bright.
That might've been a ploy on Ferguson's part to give Pogba an incentive to sign the deal. Not saying he doesn't think Pogba's talented, but it wouldn't surprise me.To be fair mate, looks like Fergie rates him the most aswell who thinks he's gonna first team regular next season.
Nobody said he isn't just drifts in and out of games and today wasn't one of his better gamesDon't get all the Pogba criticism, he's clearly quality.
Coming back from injury...great result.He's about 6'1"/6'2" I'd say.
And Pogba's done sweet feck all.
Agree with this.Just got back from the game.
Although City had a lot of possession they were poor overall, our keeper was not worked at all. Will Keane was definitely our best player and contrary to the opinions that I have read on the thread so far I thought that Pogba had a decent game too, at times he was strong and tidy in a congested midfield.
The City left back was their best player, had Brady in his pocket for most of the game, he got at our right back time and time again too, that said, his crossing was poor at the crucial times. He looked about 35 years old.
There were lots of young hooligans there supporting both sides but they created a good atmosphere. The pitch invasion did not surprise me and neither would a bit of violence tonight.
It would be nice if he signed a new contract.Agree with this.
This was a moment in the first half where City were pressing just after we scored. He was exchanging short passes with Tunnicliffe I think and after a pass he made a run one of the City players ran with him thus alleviating the pressure on Tunnicliffe who was then able to pass it forward.
That was Pogba's first game back from injury too.Yeah, i thought pogba did ok.
Also agree Will Keane was excellent. Some decent defensive peformances too. Especially from his bro.
Brady and Tunnicliffe need to wise up though. We probably should have finished with 9 men.
I agree.It would be nice if he signed a new contract.
