very very encouraging, creative and influential for a post injury performance, albeit again an average Newcastle. Looked like he was before the injury. Very glad he scored too.

He has 2 weeks to get through the gears and be in peak fitness for the City/Arsenal games. Thats when we need him to show his class.

What a difference from last season where he just very rarely looked comfortable. Matic has been a godsend for him and he's been fantastic all season. You can just see how the attack flows so smoothly when he's on form and making things happen through the middle where we've looked dreadfully un creative since scholes retired

3 goals and 3 assists in 5 PL appearances this season.
Doesn't play for our neighbors though, so this won't be mentioned anywhere.

It's unreal how much we missed his creativity, need to go on a big run now with everyone back fit.

I love the bits when he receives the ball and with a 2nd touch immidiately finds someone.

Has same goals and only 2 assists less than KDB...

We are going to need him on the same level as KDB all season if we are going to win anything special.

The only missing ingredient is consistency now. What's the average with him in the team? 3 goals or 4?

Do Liverpool fans still think Jordan Henderson is better than him?

Would be good if Pogba could actually look better than him when we play Liverpool again this season. He didn’t last year and that’s what feeds that nonsense.

His match makes me think he was ready for a while but we waited to be 110% sure of his fitness levels before playing him again.
Yep can see that too. We didnt want him to be back before the international break so he can go and tweak something playing for France.

I hope Jose protects him this season though. He needs to be used cleverly and not run into the ground.

That was clever by Mou. No international games for a while now. Pogba will be needed more than ever

Great comeback from Pogba! Didn't look like he had been away at all. Probably his best game this season anyway!

Another 2 players of his quality and we'll be threatening in the CL.

People genuinely thought his injury wasn't the reason our play turned to shit. What he offers to the team, no other midfielder in the squad can. He's simply just a phenomenal player.

Its part of a crackpot theory by the 'experts' on this forum that players can be 'coached' to be top players. There is a talent requirement that is developed at a young age, good coaching cannot turn players like Lingard and Fellaini into Pogbas.
