What does that even mean
Still harping on about this?
And going from the fact that you're still completely in the dark regarding Pogba, I can only assume that you still haven't actually watched him this season, as per your own statement in the Spurs thread a couple of weeks back? I understand that Glaston has done well in training his little army!His spirit lives in this thread.Still harping on about this?
Whichever Mod changed the title to add ... Henderson is better than Pogba ... must be laughing his little red Xmas socks off at the response it elicited !
These are straw men examples. If Henderson was as peripheral as Cleverley in United's team then the comparison would hold water. In reality, Henderson has been extremely important at winning the ball, keeping the ball and providing a platform at the base of midfield. It's a lot of heavy lifting, so less eye-catching.
There are many more examples, like Evra played 34 games when we won the league and he wasn't better than any LB in the league, similarly Evans played 28 games when we were 2nd, that doesn't mean he was better than all CBs bar City's. Using league table to prove Played X played better than Y is straw man argument.
This doesn't really contend with my point which is that Henderson has been more consistent than Pogba so far this season. He really has, which is why I'm confused that United fans can't give way on this particular narrow point. It's really not the same as suggesting Henderson is better. Nobody has said as such.
Like I said Henderson is good for his level, if Pogba played like Henderson then it wouldn't have been counted as good as the expectations are very different. It's not something I expect a Liverpool fan to agree though.
Nonsense.
The average rating given to Pogba by RedCafe posters (therefore naturally United fanatics) since the start of the season is ... 6.2. One would assume that is composed of much higher recent ratings and much lower ratings from early season.
Actually I'd rather have Henderson right where he is and have Pogba in front of him contributing, as he does for United, to the attack.Liverpool fans would rather have Henderson than Pogba..
And with that ambition they wonder why they haven't won a league title in 26 years.
Just on this - is there a quote to corroborate your statement?Liverpool fans would rather have Henderson than Pogba..
And with that ambition they wonder why they haven't won a league title in 26 years.
You really live in your own little world, don't you? Literally no one has said that but please, continue to make up your own facts.Liverpool fans would rather have Henderson than Pogba..
And with that ambition they wonder why they haven't won a league title in 26 years.
Wait.
Rawkish post
"Henderson has been more consistent than Pogba". While this statement is correct, I wouldn't replace the word consistent with effective.
Additionally, Pogba did not make the FIFA world 11 for his end product.
The laughter is more about buying him back for 125 times what you sold him for.
True, however he was a different player when we begrudgingly sold him to the player we bought back.
I've been following the thread and no one actually said that. A couple of Liverpool fans have said Henderson has performed better than Pogba so far this season. That's about it.
Even in Pogba's poorest games he's still done more than Henderson at his very best, everyone's just blinded by Pogba's price tag, thus expecting much more from him.
By what I see, and by what you see. Those 3 have been better than Zlatan and Pogba. Pogba hasn't lived up to his billing, Zlatan is Zlatan.
Pogba and Zlatan have more goals than Firmino , Mane and Coutinho..
Oh but we have Klopp and we run a lot...
Klopp would not be able to play gegenpressen with those two in the first team together. Not sure what tactics, if any other, he would employ. So that's all conjecture.
He would too. Pogba and Zlatan are physical freaks. They'd be great in Klopp's system
Really? Premier League-really? I don't think so. 11 for Zlatan -how many assists?.None. 3 goals (three)for Pogba? How many assists.Two. A big disappointment.
Zlatan wouldn't fit at all. Great scorer, but has no assists - not one in the league. He wouldn't keep up in Klopp's system.
Zlatan would be good from the bench like a fitter/better Sturridge but no way is he able to run like Firminho up top. That is what Klopp's system demands. Goals are then just a happy by product of that work.
Let's keep it simple. This season. Pogba and Zlatan have more goals than Firmino, Mane and Coutinho. Fact.
Simple suits your rhetoric but not the pertinent facts because Z&P have been playing in Europe too, whilst Klopp often rested FMC for cup matches and all have been out injured at one time or another. How on earth do you think that we have scored nearly double your number of goals in the PL .. Karius ?
