Pogba isn't even playing that well...Ibrahimovic has been the saviour of United in recent games. There's a reason why all of Pogba's assists have been to Ibra...the old man is brilliant and can convert a crappy pass into a goal...like at Crystal Palace for example.

This is pure jealousy and hate, what about the ones he has been wasting? Which club doesn't have a saviour? Isn't costa the saviour of your club? Who else is he supposed to assist? De gea? Who was fabregas assisting under Mourinho? Can we also say costa was brilliant to convert fabregas' crappy assists?

You don't have to be hypocritical, be objective and you'll know he is one of the smartest midfielders in the world and no one is in his level in the epl

Your earlier post about Pogba isn't right, bro. You are making it look like none of our criticism on Pogba was right. Me personally don't hate him. I might have been harsh but it's coz I cared.

How did previous most expensive player association member Fernando "the impotent" Torres perform in chelsea that justified his fee back then!


£50,000,000 by the way!

He was a flop and roundly derided as a big blonde flop.

Which is what happens when a player does not live up to the astronomical price tag

Fabregas has a brilliant career to look back at and over 100 epl assists. He has proven himself in so many ways.

Pogba hasn't. Please don't compare champagne to burukutu

In all sincerity, apart from those that stand out for one reason or the other (elampiro for his Rooney and old man yarns, many arsenal fans their pristine foolishness, Dayo for his treachery and lapdog, the herrera hater, the Sunderland/moyes/Sevilla fan etc) it's pretty difficult to know who has which opinion after weeks, for me at least.

All I remember is that at a point in time, there was this yarns and that yarns. By who, many times escape me.
Can't be putting effort to store these things in my head.

I don't even how or from where to dissect this your post. I can only say you haven't read all my comments on Pogba, if you did, you won't for one second doubt if I had praised Pogba many times amidst my criticisms. So I'll just ask you these simple questions.

If there's "nothing constructive" about what we've typed about Pogba on this board, are you suggesting that Ibra was wrong to have said all those things we've been saying? And was what Ibra said a "destructive" assessment of Pogba?

Lastly, are suggesting it's us that created the websites which Elampirö used to back up our claims that Zlatan has missed the biggest chances amongst other players as at then? Are the websites also "destructively" criticizing Zlatan with their facts?


I await your answer.
this is why it is important to follow timeline of events.
If you have the time, you can read Zlatan's appraisal of Paul Pogba at the heat of '£89m'. What he said is true, but more importantly, when he said it.

Anthony Martial did himself big favors by flying out the tracks like an F-liner jet before merchants armed to teeth with clubs and sharp daggers like Nihilist could say "Mallam cut suya". You cannot even begin to imagine the rocks that would have landed on him had he managed anything like a slow start... and all for what? £57m will fill the air; never mind he was a virtually unknown.

You should be thankful the management got the signings they did last summer if you are a Manchester United fan. No championship winning team was built in 6 months.

What should you realistically expect from the world's most expensive player?

How can you pay 89 million pounds for a player and not expect him to win MOTM every week? I would expect him to be MOTM in training sessions sef for that amount.

I don't think you understand the select group that Pogba belongs to. Go and check the performance of previous most expensive players and compare to Pogba
what will i see aside goals and assists as they are all attackers anyway.
Guanluigi Buffon cost €52m in the summer of 2001 and is still the most expensive goalkeeper I guess. How many goals and assist has he got yet?
I know Edwin van dar Sar got the odd assist here and there for MUFC, he cost about £7m.
I know Jose Luis Chilavert got the odd goals here and there, he cost less than £5m.
What's up with the world's most expensive goalkeeper??

Personally I have liked Pogba ever since he,Ravel and Tunnicliffe were running things in the youth team.I have nothing against him personally and I am happy he is now playing better.
Having said I still maintain that had that money been spent more intelligently we would be better off this season in terms of performance, points and position and better off in the future as well.

Despite spending all that money on midfield we are still severely handicapped when a geriatric Carrick does not play. There are more effective ways to strengthen your midfield IMO and I have touched on this before.

In terms of Pogba's performance specifically using the "system" as an excuse is a very easy route to take.
This was an expected top class midfielder making the conscious effort to deny overlapping team mates the ball repeatedly while he indulged in his latest fancy step over trick. This was a guy looking to shoot almost every time he got within 40 meters of the opponents goal and passing the ball only after that route had been blocked by which time his passing opportunities would have been limited.

If you like continue screaming £89m till you tear ya larynx,no fukc will be given,I repeat no fuvk will be given!!!

He deserves the accolades when he keeps up with his simple and great performances, and the sticks and stones when he serves shiit (same goes for everyone ).

Pogba's performances are worth 40m at best but he has been playing well and accordingly we will tone down the criticism but let's not make any mistake the real men are Ibrahimovic and Herrera and Ibra is unreliable as fvck.

What a terrible analogy.

Why don't you ask how many cleansheets Suarez and Cristiano Ronaldo have, or how many tackles and interceptions Gareth Bale or Kaka have.

A goalkeeper is a goalkeeper. When you spend 52m on a Keeper, this is what you buy
Buffon holds the record for the most clean sheets in Serie A, and with the Italian national team; he also holds the record for the longest streak without conceding a goal in Serie A history

Buffon is easily the greatest goalkeeper of the modern age, and if you ask any Manyoo fan, they will tell you that VDS is in your top 2 keepers ever.

So why shouldn't we expect goals and assists from the 89m midfielder? I can see you are looking for goals from your keepers so maybe it's cleansheets that Pogba should be giving us...and even there he is failing too. grin
