AikayDaWrapper: @bold... in that game, Payet had been withdrawn for Kante giving Pogba to move up front... the price for getting him is just outrageous! |

£100M for Pogba? Thats absurd! |

lekkie073: yea,but we cant keep relying on carrick..hes 35 now,his legs are weak...i really felt for him when he said he wished he was still 25 and trying to play for mou,for me,i think thats d most important replacement we have to make,cos even if we buy matuidi pogba and kante,none of them can dictate the tempo of d game from deep,those kind of midfielders ar rare |

Many people seem to have different opinions regarding pogba. What is quite obvious in all,is basically people resenting or not wanting him becuz of the price tag attached to the young man. |

AikayDaWrapper:Xhaka was actually the best midfielder in the Swiss match. All what Pogba did was to display his needless tricks and take shots, he hardly created chances for Giroud in that match, even as the most advanced attacking midfielder. Funny enough when Xhaka got his eyes set on him in the 2nd half, he became invisible. More so, he wasn't asked to sit back against Germany. He and Mathuidi took turns bombing forward. It was only in the final that the coach asked him to sit back as an holding deeplying playmaker, so as to avoid repetition of their midfield being dominated in the final, like the German midfield did. We all know that if it weren't for the German lack of striker, France would have packed their bag tey tey. The only good performance he had was against Iceland. One thing known about Pogba is that he's neither a playmaker nor a creative midfielder, I think that's why most view him as a box-box midfielder which he's not. To bring the best out of him, you would need both a playmaker and a defensive midfielder alongside him and all for what? Just to try his tricks and take shots! Abegii! |

dubylhover:I have come to the conclusion that price is meaningless in soccer now,I won't agonize over it anymore. Leroy sane for 50million!! I don't even know who that is. pogba is all right,if he'll help us let him come. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Diademk07: 11:51am On Jul 14, 2016 |
jubrealguy:What? Abegi! He can't even tie the shoelace of the little Verratti who has consistently outclassed not only Chelsea midfield but also Barca midfield. There was never a time that he was better than Pirlo nor Vidal in the midfield before both left. Even as at last season, Marchiso was Juve best midfielder, his playmaking skills was second to none. The thing is, apart from the outrageous fees, Pogba isn't what we need at present. We need a deeplying playmaker to consistently 'free' the likes of Martial and Mikhi in acres of space on the wing. We can't keep depending on the likes of Carrick and Schweini as they are not getting younger and one is even injuryprone. Secondly, we might need a defensive midfielder such as Kante in case Schneiderlin still fails to replicate his Saint's performance. Rather this, we are busying chasing rainbows in Pogba. |

Diademk07:Then the answer is POGBA, d price might be heftier than the worth, u don't compare Marco Veratti and Claudio Marchisio to paul Pogba, u don't wanna do that...... POGBA is very good and young. |

jubrealguy:What you are failing to realise is Pogba is no playmaker nor a creative midfielder to do such.. I would rather take the other french, Mario Lemina from Juve than Pogba. |

I'm not saying Pogba is worth 100 million all I'm saying is that he's very good at what he does which is dribbling, scoring and chance creation. What is vexing is the people comparing him to far inferior players. Somebody here said Gary Medel is better for feck sake. And the guy that compared Zlatan and lord Bendtner needs to check into the nearest mental asylum ASAP. These are Pogba's stats from sqwakwa at the euros 7 games 54% shot accuracy 11 chances created 88% pass accuracy As for juventus, last season he created 54 chances the closest from a man utd midfielder is Herrera at 21 12 assists and 8 goals That is 20 goals contributed by a mid in one season Why wouldn't you want someone like that in midfield behind martial Rooney Mkhitaryan and ibra. I don't give a feck how much he costs. It's better for us to spend the money than for it to be sitting in one Glazers banl account. |

AikayDaWrapper:while some ppl r vexed due to his high price tag, I have heard some saying they don't want the deal because they would be trolled d way Chelsea was trolled on matic's deal. |

jubrealguy:Abeg No Vex, Hv U Rili Watchd Verriati Play? Seen His Movement On And Of The Ball? His Performance In Big Matches? U Should Bro Den U Wuld Undastnd Y Sm Of Us Wuld Prefer Him Ova Pogba |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Diademk07: 1:22pm On Jul 14, 2016 |
AikayDaWrapper:Believe me Verratti is no inferior player. He's the best top young midfielder at present. There's a reason Xavi tried to tap him up for Barca and why Psg chairman came up with his tripe that if Barca tried to lure Verratti, he will bid for Messi. Anyway, the best player in Juve team last season was Dyabala while their best midfielder was Marchiso. If he couldn't even be Juve's best midfielder after the likes of Pirlo and Vidal left, then what are we saying? There was also Mario Lemina who looked good everytime he played and was Juve best midfielder during the time the likes of Marchiso and Khedira were out, injured. By the way, the midfielders I revere most are the play-makers. These players are rare gems and should be the one going for 100mil pounds and not some box-box cum attacking midfielders that are plenty everywhere. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by lekkie073(m): 1:26pm On Jul 14, 2016 |
stylochime:veratti with two league goals in over a hundred matches for PSG? na wa o! just like kante, he is a midfielder with no aerial presence. he has wonderfully scored 2 goals in four seasons for psg playing in a more inferior league to Italy. abeggiiiii....I no get hand for that dwarf jare veratti ko. Volkswagen ni .. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Diademk07: 1:26pm On Jul 14, 2016 |
Even while Pogba was at the academy, Ravel Morrison was the best midfielder as well. It's a shame the latter chose hooliganism over playing football. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by AikayDaWrapper(m): 1:27pm On Jul 14, 2016 |
Diademk07:Guy I didn't say Verrati is an inferior player. Heck I would take Verrati over Pogba any day of the week. The guy Na baller. Infact a midfield of Verrati and Schneiderlin would be superb. I was talking about the person here who said that Medel is a better option than Pogba. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by dubylhover(m): 1:31pm On Jul 14, 2016 |
lekkie073: im definitely sure you havent really watched him play,schooles and xavi are nephillims that are giants abi...i ask again what is pogbas best position |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by AikayDaWrapper(m): 1:32pm On Jul 14, 2016 |
lekkie073:Guy no dey talk like this Na. Verrati controls play sets the tempo of the teams attacks. His job is not to score goals. It's almost like saying how many saves has Martial made. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by lekkie073(m): 1:35pm On Jul 14, 2016 |
pogba scored more goals last season than all veratti has scored in his entire career.... #important fact |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by lekkie073(m): 1:43pm On Jul 14, 2016 |
AikayDaWrapper:veratti and carrick does basically the same thing on d pitch. playing as a holding midfielder, orchestrating okay from defense to attack. pogba plays a quite different role. do u know that pogba has the highest assist in serie A last season? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by sinizia: 1:45pm On Jul 14, 2016 |
Diademk07: You've said it all. Nobody can really predict any outstanding position or quality of Flopgba. The overhyped wacko had a terrible tournament but scored against minnows called Iceland and the praises went overboard. That guy you quoted, when I saw him praising Flopgba for the Swiss match, that's when I knew debating him was a waste of time. I can't believe people that consistently watch Pogba will wish him on United. Well, it's not my money but if Mourinho gets that wacko and he doesn't perform, he'll get the blames while Flopgba will move on to another club still feeding off the hypes. United/Mourinho will be the losers when the guy flops. |
