I mean he has shown up in a decent amount of big matches but ok... People like to be very selective don't they.

If you feel that Pogba's 'big game' performances have been sufficient then fair enough, that's your opinion.
I don't feel that they have though.
Has he been awful in every match that mattered? No.
But has he utterly gone to pieces or disappeared in multiple important games over the last 2 seasons? Yes.
While it's not fair to use his price-tag as a stick to beat him with, it has to be noted that Pogba cost this current United team a lot of money. And for me, the return just hasn't been worth the investment.
I've been following United for a long time (since around 86-87) and my instinct says that Pogba could very likely just not be a fit for United.
I hope that I'm wrong, and I hope he shows up today and performs well.
Some have some havent but the number of people saying he has never shown up in a big game are just lying to themselves. Plenty of room for improvement but so do most of the lads.
Also if he isnt suitable for United that doesnt bode well for us cause most of our players are much worse than he is if we are hinest with ourselves.
He should feck off with his blue hair during a derby, how fecking stupid can he be?
He has this haircut since 19th March. He has done it for France. People should calm down.
Time to step up Paul.
Need a top performance, please.
C’mon Pogba show these cnuts how good you are.
Hoping for a big game from Pogba today.

That is true, but would it not have been simple to have changed it since? He must have his barber visit him at least once a week!
Man City 2:3 Man Utd
fecking stop hating our players. What a game to score brace. Worked his socks off .
Also after game he made shut your mouth gesture to someone. Hopefully it's to Pep.

Sorry for calling you not big games player !! You're our best player !! Sorry Pog.
Atta boy.
10/10. Turned match on its head.
Touching the badge! @GifLord get that!
Love you Paul.
Gary Neville can feck off, one of the last disgraceful agendas all day from him today. How dare he colour his hair. How dare he smile ruefully.

fecking bossed the second half. Even the tackle that got him a yellow was worth it & important to stop the counter.
Do this consistently & he’ll fulfil the potential.

That second half Pogba is one helluva player. That's the one I thought we signed. Instrumental in us winning today.
Great game.
Fantastic second half, hopefully this kick starts him. Just needs to play with that extra passion as shown then, go in hard with everything and he’ll boss it every game.
Goat
He was fired up in that second half. Need to see more of that.
Great second half. Looked desperate for a third goal.
For what it's worth, I thought he received unfair criticism in the first half. Wasn't any worse than the rest of midfield and was definitely better than the defence.

Brilliant that second half. Shows what he can do when he's fired up and set free from defensive worries.
This is the Pogba we want more of. Give him all the attacking freedom he wants and he will shine. Also great to see him putting up such a fight in the second half.
loved the fight and will to win he showed
Where was that fecking beast he showed in the second half !!
That's what we paid 89m for !!

Just imagine how good he could be if he wasn't on social media...
Now THAT is a united star performance
Brilliant second half. His late runs into the box for the goals reminded of Roy Keane vs Arsenal when he also scored 2 goals. Great stuff.
I prefer the part where he scored twice to drag us back into it instead tbh.
Needs to make more runs inside the box like he did today. Ramsey esque in his movement. I am not suprised that Sanchez was able to pick him out for the second goal since he is used to those kind of runs.
BrilliantDid anyone see his gesture to the crowd. Told them to not believe the papers and then thumped the badge. fecking get in!
What was he gesturing towards the end?
Give him the freedom on pitch, he will boss the game.
Ah thanks.
Big moment for him. His big moment as a Manchester United player.
From 'no-where' to 'everywhere' between two halves of football. Sanchez helped too but Pogba was incredible.

That was a coming of age 2nd half from Pogba. Incredible response.
Great second half! What I liked the most is him standing up for the team and arguing and kicking them. More of that please. Two good goals too.
Hopefully that’s the game that ignites his career here. Hopefully Jose takes notice as well, when the dhackles were off that was him doing what he does best. Still he needs more runners off the ball so he can play the passes he is looking for.
Nah, it was a "don't listen to the papers" gesture.
