Pogba is our DM. I dont know which United you're watching. For now means from his Juventus hype till this minute, he's not worth 90m pounds. Let him prove he's worth it before I will take back my words. Cest fini.
How do you need the prove? 30goals? 50 assists? How?

Whichever you meant, the two options turned out to be a massive fail.

Your opinion not fact. Facts have it that Pogba has not played anything to suggest he's worth his price tag.

Steven Gerrard was a selfless & industrious B2B Midfielder who even played virtually all positions at Liverpool
how's pogba different from Gerrard?? is he selfish? or does he tell you he won't play any position the gaffer wants him to play? Gerrard despite being industrious abi selfless still wasn't trusted by his gaffer to man de CM position.
, I really don't get the comparison with a lazy Pogba who is obsessed with attaining personal glory.
well some think they are similar, with pogba having superior technique, some think pogba is better than him, some still think pogba is fraud, any which way, none of dia respective opinions matters. his achievements are there for all to see.

Pogba might be technically better than Matuidi but if I need a Strong Midfield pivot Vs a top side, the tactically indiciplined Pogba would sit his black arsè on the bench....especially if I have an in-form #10.

still doesn't make your disciplined CM better than pogba.

and bale??

Prior to his Real Madrid move, It coulda been argued that a Gareth Bale shouldn't be breaking the World transfer record but i dont think he should be compared to Pogba - the Welshman (at that young age) was arguably the hottest Foward in Europe at that time and the general consensus is that Goal scorers & assist specialists are known to cost a lot of money.

I need not remind you that Bale has literally justified every penny spent on him - despite an injury plagued debut season, he was still able help his club to a CL & domestic Cup double with pretty impressive numbers.... scoring & assisting vital goals for his side.

Instead of screaming Hian, break down the post and list one, just one wrong thing in that post. I'm waiting.


1st of all your template for even measuring the standard of which pogba should have aspired to is wrong in all its ramifications! Sissoko? A man that was struggling in midfield for an eventually relegated side? Those are the kind of performances you want in our midfield? No thanks...Then let's look at your theory about a 100 mil player always having to at least score 15 to 20 goals a season..that is pure balderdash!




In their prime how many goals were xavi, pirlo, Roy Keane or even Bastian scoring per season? We're they not at different times worth the same amount to their clubs? A midfielders job is not to score 15 to 20 goals a season, it is to assist the forward players in getting goals while also protecting the backline! Those that chip in with goals ala lampard, Gerard, Scholes or even toure are just a bonus based on natural talent and application, it's not a given right! Pogbas numbers have been good enough for a quality midfielder thru out all his time at juve...how many goals has your nigga SISSOKO SCORED OR ASSISTED in his entire career? ( do the forensics)....



By the way pogba still had a 5 year contract and is yet to hit his prime so was a valuable commodity to juve so how much did you think we would get him for? 5k? I don't know why you are all so pained over his fee but as for matching our ambitions pogba was the BEST and most reasonable acquisition man united could have made this summer!


Based on that YOUR POST you no try!

Neymar not worth his price. Are you kidding me?
with the amount rumored to be involved in his transfer, his performance has not justified his price tag.
bale is worth it. Every dime of it. His stats and records proves it.

WHILE Bale was punching above his weight to take his lowly rated team to Euro Semi-final,
shey ramsey no follow punch above him weight, if u ask some people seff, dem go tell you say, ramsey de more important to wales for de tourney. so no go there, even Greece push above dia weight nd won de euro,
Pogba was unarguably donning the disappearance robe of Last season's Hazard and disappearing in match estimate.
how did he disappeared? shey no be dm him play? what do you expect him to do, score 8goals with 7assist abi wetin grin , oya show me any match where france were dominated with pogba in the field

I'm not gonna continue on the back and forth,it's a waste of time as no party will agree with other. So let me reiterate my stance once again. Please screenshot it, share it and even carve it into a plaque and hang it in your room as a reminder.

1. Pogba is a good player but is not worth 90m pounds.
2. For that amount, he's a fraud, a massive one at that.
3. No DM for that matter presently is worth 90m. Better DMs like Casmeiro and Kante no even worth am talk more of Pogba.
4. For 90m pounds, I expect a Sissoko-esque Euro finals from a 90m pounds DM. 90m no be beans.
5. There's nothing Pogba has done extraordinarily in the past and currently to have him worth that amount. Vidal is better off being bought at that than Pogba.
6. Can Pogba go on to justify that amount? Yes, he has the time, and with the right attitude and determination, he can over-justify the price tag. He's physically strong and have the right mix to excel, but for now, he's nowhere there. But I pray he does, I dont hate him, just his attitude of seeking for fame instead of allowing his feet do the talking.


I rest my case.

If Fatso starts and Mata and Mhiki must start too, then Mourinho has to go with the same formation he used against Fenerbache.

But guys, don't you see we badly need a quality winger especially seeing we've none presently? Our counter-attacks died or terribly dipped with the departure of CR7 and Co. It's no coincidence that the likes of Barca, Madrid and Bayern have had lethal and exciting wingers in recent years who formed deadly partnerships that have catapulted them to glory.

Barca has Neymar and Messi flanking Suarez.
Madrid with Ororo and Bale.
Bayern with Robben and Ribery.

When these set of deadly flying wingers are on the pitch, they stretch their opponents, wear them out and have their opponents doubling up to contain them. United have none. Martial is terrible this season.

Pacy winger like Valencia has zero skills to destroy an opponent one-on-one. Good and skillful wingers are the architect of most counter-attacks. They make runs to start off the counter-attacks. A good example is CR7's third goal for Madrid against Athletico. See the way Bale made a run and Isco instinctively whipped the ball to him and he ran with the ball all the way into the 18-yard box of Atletico before squaring for Ororo who also matched his pace to be there on time to bury the chance. Now imagine if Rooney or Mata was Bale. They will just take one step and then turn around and kill a counter-attack that could have resulted in a goal. I doubt that apart from Martial, there's any other United winger that could successfully skin a full-back alive in a one-on-one position. Our attacks have dipped with our lack of quality wingers. Lingard with all his pace has little intelligence to beat opponents with it.

If I was made the United coach today, a Robben-esque winger along with a top striker will be my first priority.
I get your point but all I'm saying is; we shouldn't start Lingard or go about chasing any body that believes he is a winger for the sake of it, bar the quality of players you highlighted above, I don't see any quality winger around who is half as good as the guys you mentioned. If you're made the coach today, you'd be limited to the quality of guys like Carrasco, Mahrez, D. Costa etc

I'll attend to this part of your post and leave the remaining to the future to prove me wrong or right.

1. The template i used is right in all ramifications. I don't see the reason a DM should cost more than Ororo and all he has to do is to shield the defense, when with that amount you can get a Coqeulin for 25mil and he'll do a better job. Pogba had something extra that people saw him and he's yet to prove it. And you saying I shouldn't include goals in my assessment of Pogba is funny. Those on this thread that were pro-Pogba were reeling out his goals and assists as the reasons why he's worth that much. And they are right. Or you think of Pogba was the typical Makelele and Coqeulin DM, clubs will be willing to pay such an amount for him? What made Pogba such a hot property were his goals, assists, dribbles, ability to help out in attacks.if it was just to shield the defense, he's won't be chased all over the place. So why shouldn't I talk about his goals and assists? Take away that and he's just ordinary.


2. I don't know how to keep explaining this. I was just citing an example. It's about the performance not the player. How come out of all the time I've watched Sissoko I can point out one solid performance from him? Even wack players sometimes have epic moments attached to their names. It doesn't mean Sissoko is better than Pogba or that I rate Sissoko highly.
