"and I'm wondering, why is he playing estate agent?"
Without a shadow of a doubt Mourinho saw the influence and "power" Pogba had in our dressing room and he clearly tried to marginalise that. Stripped him of captaincy, made him sound like the bad apple/virus and that he wasn't commited.
IMO Pogba clearly loves United, but as Ole says he wants to make sure it's the best for himself also and I don't blame him in that.
I think it'll depend what happens in the next year. If we get CL, push on and make some good signings and then start really challenging at the top of the league/Europe again he will be more than happy to stay.
If we stay as a 4th-8th position / Europa league team he will leave and walk into any top team in the world (all the haters saying "who'd want him" are kidding themselves
)
Norwich 1:2 Man Utd
That reverse pass for the goal. Filthy.

Pure filth
We would be lost without him. If he goes there is very few players who could replace him if any.
Maybe Thiago could but even he wouldn't be as good imo.
Most important thing is to add to the team seriously this summer as it is last chance saloon in terms of keeping Pogba.
And well if we lose him we will only be regressing which we cannot afford.

Great when he came on. His disguised pass for the goal was superb. Also fantastic to see him going mental when Maguire slid in the winner.
Pogba for player manager?
I mean our best strategy is pretty much give him the ball and hope for the best, so we might as well save some money on the coaching staff.

I want to see him go for goals a bit more. He always tries the fancy passes which rarely works out that well. Although when it works it is nice on the eye.
Our best player today
feckin hell that's funny
"and I'm wondering, why is he playing estate agent?"
That pass was sublime. That's the sort of stuff that's needed when playing against a team that is sitting back. He is perfect against this sort of team. Such an intelligent footballer. How anyone can be happy to see the back of him for footballing reasons is beyond me.
He oozes class
I just appreciate the little things he does so much more now that he hasn't played in so long, he makes them seem so normal you forget regular CMs don't make those types of passes. Unreal talent. Him and Martial a class above after coming on
He's our best player hands down, glad there's talk of a new contract.
They saying (ITK4) his new contract is sorted and just needs to be signed...
We will see
We will see
Links?
Well that's the biggest issue isn't it, not really news at all. No point having an offer if he isn't signing.
Anyway, another goal contribution from Pogba. He won't get the assist but he made that goal.
If Pogba was to leave in the summer, I cant think of any player who could replace him. He has a skillset that very few players have.
The best player at the club.
Vive la Pogba FC.
Vive la Pogba FC.
Please don't go Pogba
Great to have him back, really impressed with his performances and attitude since his return
Turned in some incredibly mature performances. Say what you want about the level of opponents but when he's played in midfield we've completely controlled the flow of the games.
Not to hate on McTominay and Fred as they have had great seasons by their own standards but it is safe to say that if Pogba leaves in the next year or two they cannot be the ones taking his spot.
If they are we will be regressing a hell of a lot.

So he has to work his way back into the team does he??

He uses his body so intelligently to shield the ball when dribbling. The way he combines his physicality with his technical ability never ceases to amaze me.
Those guys ran away within 10 minutes of his return against Spurs and haven’t been seen since. They will be back when his performances drop below 8/10 though.So he has to work his way back into the team does he??
Imagine saying Pogba should be benched for Fred and McTominay!
Looked completely in control of the game as soon as he came on. This is the player we've waited to see. I've always advocated getting rid, but if this type of display is going to be the norm, then I hope he signs a new contract.
What @RedDevilUnited369 said. But there's been mentions of it in the press a few times iirc. Maybe he's now convinced we're heading in the right direction and playing the kind of football he enjoys.
We needed Pogba to come on after 45 minutes. He elevates our midfield to an unreal extent. I have been critical of him in the past, some of it out of bitterness about his obvious desire to be elsewhere. However, he is levels above anyone but Bruno in our squad.
Absolutely unreal player, not a single player on the planet that can do everything he does. Got a combination of skill, technique and strength that is unplayable when he clicks.

This is the level of midfielders we need in our squad!
Sadly makes Scott look painfully average in comparison.

Barely involved though? He didn't embarrass himself but I really don't understand the love in here. Just watch the video. The first three simple passes went behind the player, the next were pretty much only simple passes that hit the target or missed passes. Not much else going on for him this game sadly. Crazy reaction for a pretty mediocre performance.Since returning against Spurs he's created 8 chances (not including his run for the penalty against Spurs) in 3 games having not played a full game in any of them. Bruno's also created 8 chances these last 3 games but has played more minutes.
It's nice to have midfielders share the work load at creating chances again.
