By this time it should be clear that the problems are legion. Hopefully people here won't start witch hunting a single player like they used to witch hunt Rooney. Pogba is one of the problems but he can also be one of the solutions. Whether he is the former or the latter depends on the main problem.....Jose Mourinho. Zlatan is another major problem. If i am to list our problems in order of importance i would go with Mourinho, Zlatan and then Pogba.
But i still support the manager. If he can see the error of his ways and retrace his steps this season is not yet lost.

Memphis My main Guy.
e pain me sha.

raumdeuter:


I agree the pivot needs to be stronger and the obvious choice would be Schneiderlin for Pogba but can you bench a 100M player without causing problem

SailorXY:
For those that believe Pogba is the problem.

We have to develop methods that will see us be potent enough in front of goal, whilst not sacrificing creativity.

Still think 4-3-3 will unlock the potentials here.

I don't want to pile it on our dabbing player but his limitations which some of us knew about are just coming to the fore now.
Pogba does not have the positional discipline or composure of a carrick or busquets to play the holding role
He does not have trickery or inventiveness of mata, ozil, Silva or iniesta to play the 10
He lacks the work rate, team ethic and stamina of a Vidal or Essien to be truly box 2 box.
Pogba is like Orogbo, what is his benefit?

eph12:

I once asked here what's his real position? Where can we play him that will make him have good games consecutively? I then realised we need someone like Vidal beside him to unleash his true potential. A very hardworking and technically gifted midfielder. This means we definitely going to spend some huge amounts soon again. Read somewhere Mourinho is considering buy a $60mil defender. Like that will solve anything. Our midfield has been the problem for years now since Scholes left. He even had to come out of retirement for us once. This is really worrisome.

Jose isn't the first choice of many Utd fans and the way we don play so far won't win him any new fans.
even loyalist don't have enough material to fight on his behalf.
you can't tell me you are not scared with the way he ended things with Chelsea and how we've performed so far. na mostly the same players they Nyash everton as we dey talk so.

chrisley024:
@ elampiro, he said this after he finally won a game

Diademk07:


The problem is he doesn't control the game like quality playmakers do nor have the engine/beast mode to operate as a box-box CM. His idea of creativity with constant chipped passes irritates me at times because he doesn't know when to stop even when he sees that it's not working.

bykebyke:

Yes,because football is a 45minutes game.

Elxandre:

From what I've seen in this thread, most fans hate him because he wasn't their first choice.
Klopp almost relegated Dortmund, but nobody suggested he was finished.
He didn't even start his Liverpool career spectacularly.

Now isn't it hypocritical that many fans here suggest we should have gone for klopp, while citing Mourinho's catastrophic end to his Chelsea career as reason he wasn't fit for the job.

Ironically, both had the same horrible end in their former jobs.

Fans are ridiculous!

Elxandre:

Those qualities might come with time.
His price tag makes us forget he's 23!

SailorXY:
like I have said here, before you buy a player you should have mapped out a system that you believe he's gonna fit.
There's no problem with his play. He was doing same way when he got into team of season even in UCL. Emphasis should have been how to develop him, not this basic wänking.
Besides this guy is 23, will be here for many years of course. You better get used.

So u believe Pogba is 23

a good run of form like Chelsea own is what he needs to win them over.
