Rio sits down and interviews Paul Pogba in a BT Sport segment where they discuss the teams form, his contract situation etc. Felt this deserves a thread of its own.
What does he say about the contract situation? I'm in work, can't watch vidJust beat me to this, fairly promising about the contract I guess, wonder how much of that is a lie though.
Rio dropped the bomb at the end asking the question, Pogba said something along the lines of he will speak to the club and see what’s going on, but we will see. He also said he’s happy at the club. Or words to that effect. Could easily be a bunch of rubbish.What does he say about the contract situation? I'm in work, can't watch vid
I've always said that about his touches. I feel the reason for his lack of consistency comes from that. He picked it up from Italy working with Pirlo, but in England, particularly in central roles, holding onto the ball is suicidal.Rio sits down and interviews Paul Pogba in a BT Sport segment where they discuss the teams form, his contract situation etc. Felt this deserves a thread of its own.
His recent media barrage is as planned as his agent's comments. I'm guessing both him and his agent looked around and figured they'd be taking a big pay cut to go anywhere in this financial climate.Rio dropped the bomb at the end asking the question, Pogba said something along the lines of he will speak to the club and see what’s going on, but we will see.

I think if he wants to leave and is to better his current contract then he will need to leave on a free the summer after next. Doesnt look like any club could afford the transfer fee and contract at the moment.Rio dropped the bomb at the end asking the question, Pogba said something along the lines of he will speak to the club and see what’s going on, but we will see.

These media interviews are set up by the club and the broadcasters. The club is selecting him to do them. Nothing to do with Pogba or his agent deliberately setting them up.His recent media barrage is as planned as his agent's comments.

Absolutely, when he’s leading on the pitch but considering the move his agent pulled on the eve of our biggest game of the season, despite his improved form and less hostile sound bytes from his camp, It’s still a bit rich no? I don’t think a week has gone by in the last 2 months without a Pogba interview where he’s pointing out where we still need to improve. I really just don’t care what he says anymore as long as he does it on the pitch and isn’t upsetting the dressing room with the continual and tired transfer/agent bullshit.Nice interview. He is really complementary about Cavani and seems very genuine about it. Seems like a very shrewd piece of business by the club which might make the difference at the end.
Really nice that Pogba is using his credentials as a league and world cup winner to ram home the importance of winning trophies in the team. We need such people to help instill the winning mentality again in Man United.
I was thinking thatMight be reading into it wrongly but I sense a sly dig at Jose there with winning trophies while playing shit.
It's more that he will Yes/No the interview and also he'll preview the questions - Rio is hardly going to put him on the spot. Even the last one was just a diplomatic standard response re his contract.These media interviews are set up by the club and the broadcasters. The club is selecting him to do them.

I like as much club content as possible, he's an intelligent guy and an interesting interviewee as well as being a stellar player/global superstar but I'd rather see some interviews with Cavani, Bruno, Shaw, AWB (who I swear we know nothing about), Fred etc right now. Pastor Fred, Luke Shaw, Slabhead (although admittedly he is really boring), they've been in the trenches since forever and absolute stalwarts for us. Pogba's been good for what 7 games (?) and he's doing an interview a week!
Of course it does because we don't have enough Paul Pogba threadsRio sits down and interviews Paul Pogba in a BT Sport segment where they discuss the teams form, his contract situation etc. Felt this deserves a thread of its own.
NoSo nobody is going to mention the thread title, no?
Yes definitely, as a fan it' nice to actually see him happy to be honest. I know Raiola is loose but I don't think I'll ever forgive him for the timing of the last 'outburst' and then us crashing out of the CL.I think it may be that the club is trying to enhance the player's value? Show the public Pogba is not a bad person, potential suitors etc..
He has been in the negative headlines for a while now, this way maybe people may think you know what he isn't what the media portray him to be.
The players know that leaving clubs or angling to get better contracts is part of their careers. That doesn't take away from the message that you need to win trophies to have achieved something in football that Pogba is giving to the team. And its authentic coming from him having won so many trophies in his career.Absolutely, when he’s leading on the pitch but considering the move his agent pulled on the eve of our biggest game of the season, despite his improved form and less hostile sound bytes from his camp, It’s still a bit rich no?

Defintiely needed it own thread! Thanks!Rio sits down and interviews Paul Pogba in a BT Sport segment where they discuss the teams form, his contract situation etc. Felt this deserves a thread of its own.
He's garbage at times and has been good only in patches. He's not worth the salaryJust watched this. Seriously, if anyone slams Pogba, I will feck them up.
I know, right? It's missing a possessive apostrophe.So nobody is going to mention the thread title, no?

Wht abowt it.So nobody is going to mention the thread title, no?
That’s what he’s called on Pro Evo right? Poba of Man Red at Trad Bricks being interviewed by Phurinund.So nobody is going to mention the thread title, no?

It’s always a bad thing. Unless it’s Bruno or McTominay or something, then it’s ‘saying all the right things’ and being an example of great character.Is that a bad thing?
Sorted!So nobody is going to mention the thread title, no?
Pogba is finally doing his job well again. As I said I’m very happy he’s playing well but it’s a bit rich. He’s all about it with a few months left at the club and possibly leaving the club for a huge loss again or a mega deal in the pipeline making him one of the highest paid players in the league despite very patchy form. So after telling everyone who’d listen how much he wanted to leave for the last 3 years but his form not being good enough for any other big club to pay up I’m not sure what he thinks he is to the club and the fans anymore. I doubt he gives a shit to be honest. I’d argue he was the biggest disruption at the club at times over the years and the club still stuck by him. His form has been 50/50 over the 4 years here and I think I’m probably being kind there. We’ve been in the doldrums and as one of the highest earners at the club I’d be much more interested in what he has to say if he was actually a success here or at least kept his head down during the harder times.Is that a bad thing?
Obviously. The Pogba of the last year was coming off a long term injury and then caught covid.Something has changed behind the scenes no doubt. This isn’t the Paul Pogba we’ve seen for the last year or so.
Was there a typo? I didn't noticeSorted!
Yes, that and letting his agent talk crap. It was more than injury and Covid. His head had moved to his next club.Obviously. The Pogba of the last year was coming off a long term injury and then caught covid.
