If we could, we would have done it by now.
Well my point sort of explains why we haven't. We need a top level DM. We don't have a single DM in the entire squad other than Matic who's legs have gone.
I've pointed out before that perhaps Pogba's best form came when he was partnered early on with Matic
before Matic legs went.
People like to jump on Pogba's back and he deserves
some criticism however why I've always given him some slack is that we knew before we brought him back what we needed to do to make it work with Pogba and get the best from him and we've done next to nothing to achieve that other than the half-arsed signing of Matic who's legs went almost immediately.
Mourinho wanted to partner the two, if Matic were 26 it would have worked, in fairness to Mourinho he trusted Matic and he
was an excellent player capable of covering the ground.
My argument is that we still need that 26 year old Matic, because if you think McFred are anywhere near that level you would have to be mad. Everybody knows Pogba needs a top level partner at DM. Here at the Caf we pretend he's been provided that at United.
