I don't think it's something we should just sweep under the table as a bad game though. For me he has two major issues and they both stem from his immaturity and lack of composure. He's a bad finisher in a general sense and when the pressure starts to build in tight games he often makes mad decisions over and over again. The good news is the maturity should come with age and when that comes together he'll have very few, if any, real weaknesses. In the meantime we'll just have to put up with a lot of frustrating moments from him because he's always involved in the key moments.State of this forum
He's a fecking human you plebs
That was... I mean, I have absolutely no idea what that was.
He put Zlatan and Rooney through on goal in the first half and they both missed. Rooney's was the harder chance but Pogba was pretty good in the first half.One of the most insipid and technically incompetent performances I've ever seen from a Manchester United central midfielder.
Ball control and positioning was poor, continually took 3 touches when one was enough, stupid egoistic Hollywood passes never came off and his short passing was just lazy. But worse for me was how he let his head drop and just allowed the game to pass him by.
He is meant to be our central midfielder who takes control of the game. Only thing he takes cares of right now is his haircut.
I keep being promised or chastised that I'm wrong about him. I doubt I've ever been more correct about a player in my life.
No he isn't, he transitions play and advances attacking moves much better than Carrick, plus he dribbles players, scores and assists too.Needs to sit down and watch some videos of Carrick on how to dictate the tempo of a game. That said, is he that type of player? Probably not, hence why I think it went to pot when Carrick went off.
Nah, he's a massive bottler. Most players would've been dying to be on the end of those 3 chances at the death. He bottled one by passing up responsibility to Fellaini & the scuffed the other two. That has nothing to do with price tags.Years away from being the finished product. Kinda feel sorry for him. The price tag has put up expectations he is not ready to deliver against. He will probably get there but not until he's 27/28. Maturity is lacking in the big moments when we need that composure.
