NoIt we swapped Pogba for Rice, are we a better team??
I think we are.

True, when we've got Fred for that roleI for one won't miss him arseing about and losing the ball 10 yards in front of our box.
Not yet but the Sancho announcement is a really big PR ace up the sleeve that theyve obviously decided to hold on to for some reason. It would make sense if theyre holding onto it so they can use it at the same time as they are dropping bad news. Its really strange that Sancho isnt announced when we all know the deal is already agreed.You think he's sold to PSG? Saw that SKY are reporting they are after him.
I don’t think there’s any proof he’s been toxic, managers have said the opposite actually, but I think the Mourinho situation was toxic but that probably had more to do with Mourinho than anything else.There is a good feeling about the club at the moment. If Pogba goes then we’ll need a replacement but no one can say that he was a legend or even a big success in a Man Utd shirt. You can keep blaming the other players or the managers but he’s played under quite a few for us and done very little. If we can get a decent fee he has to go, I’m worried about who replaces him but I won’t be sad.
He’s proved in the past how toxic he is.
He may not be toxic himself but there is always toxicity around him. You put up with it if its worth it, in this case, it's never been.I don’t think there’s any proof he’s been toxic, managers have said the opposite actually, but I think the Mourinho situation was toxic but that probably had more to do with Mourinho than anything else.
I think you can argue Pogba has been a good player for United in the first few seasons he’s been here but since Solskjaer came in he’s been largely hit and miss, and injured. But all that has coincided with him and his dick head agent talking about leaving every 6 months.
Neither will I.I for one won't miss him arseing about and losing the ball 10 yards in front of our box.
Always a terrible stat.Last year our win % and Goals scored were higher with out pogba (we played 30 with out him and 29 with him)
If he goes we can get more balanced squad by signing one of Saul / Aouar / Goretzka / Zeilinski / Carmavinga / Bissouma / Touchameni
Personally I couldn’t give a feck about the fellas stats, get him gone and get someone in who wants to be at the club, not someone who likes his agent to bum the club whenever possible.Always a terrible stat.
The toxicity around him is is only an issue for a portion of supporters.He may not be toxic himself but there is always toxicity around him. You put up with it if its worth it, in this case, it's never been.
Oh yeah. How many contracts have they bummed out of us now? Must be 7 or 8 at least.Personally I couldn’t give a feck about the fellas stats, get him gone and get someone in who wants to be at the club, not someone who likes his agent to bum the club whenever possible.
I think so too. Much better balance.It we swapped Pogba for Rice, are we a better team??
I think we are.
No. But we'd be a far better team if we swapped him for Bissouma and i.e. Goretzka, or any of the other midfielders we've been linked with.It we swapped Pogba for Rice, are we a better team??
I think we are.
The simplistic answer is no, but the problem is Pogba has started 34 PL games in 2 seasons whereas Rice has started 70 out of a possible 76 games.It we swapped Pogba for Rice, are we a better team??
I think we are.
Agree with every wordNo matter what anyone says His agent wouldn’t come out and make comments without his say so. The timing was always terrible too like before a make or break champions league tie or before the City game. I cannot think of any player in our history who let his agent talk so much. As for ability, he’s got it but he’ll never be a legend at Utd or PSG or Madrid or elsewhere because he’s not consistent enough.

Preach my friend, preach. Totally agree.No matter what anyone says His agent wouldn’t come out and make comments without his say so.

No and especially not if he was the only midfielder we brought in to replace Pogba.SO basically, yes, but you dont like RIce
Agreed - I am just saying there is always drama around him (Raiola, his brother or mother or whatever) and he hasn't done much to put a stop to it. You accept it if he was prime Xavi but he is more like Riquelme. Talented but inconsistent with mood swings. Compare that to KDB and can't help but feel jelly of city's luck.The toxicity around him is is only an issue for a portion of supporters.
You look at everything that comes out of players and managers around him and he is an absolute professional who they love having around and playing with and they don't pay much heed to the ramblings of Raiola, his brothers or whatever the latest gossip column has to say. To them it seems like he is absolutely worth it as a player and person.
Most recently Amad talked how much support Pogba has given him since his arrival and there are other youth players that have said the same since he has been back at the club. That absolutely is worth it when you talk about the history of this club and how the established players support the academy players and incoming young players.

I'm pretty sure James Blunt wrote a fitting song about this..
If Pauls off, then yeah, both required.Disco Mirror is hit or miss so who knows if this is true
Anyway we need a World Class replacement or our midfield will be pathetic.
No if or buts.
By right we need a DM and CM now.
Where’s our central creativity coming from? VBD don’t play.I think so too. Much better balance.
