Evra my all time United left back.
We don't really need him and he was shot by the time he left the EPL. He still has more pace than Blind though ,it's the stamina and recovery ability that has dissipated.

And pogba hasn't? Does anybody just pop in the world's best 11? And to think he's only 23, by the time pogba is done with his career, it will be an abomination to mention fabregas in the same sentence with pogba

Correct me if i'm wrong but i dont think fabregas has ever been compared with the best midfielders in the world and even labelled as one of the best midfielders in the world

Nihilist is reasonable about all things NOT RELATED TO MAN UTD. You can't convince on this topic.
Having said that one has to be cautious about making projections about footballers potential. Fab was probably the most intelligent and mature teenage midfielder I ever saw and because of that many would say he underachieved despite all his success.

So what's the problem sef?

League is a more important competition than Capital 1. Infact many coaches use capital one to test run their reserve team

Clueless bunch

The best CM was chased from center midfield to AM by a spainard forgotten in EPl by his own country and a tired pensioner before United can go on a winning run

Nonsense

One is even saying a CM chased for 3 years by a team that had the best midfield collection in modern football at Pogba's age was never one of the best



Pogba that has been raped by Silva,Fernandinho,Huddlestone,Kante,Dembele etc as a CM at a age when Fabregas was dealing with Gerrard,,Lampard,Essien,Alonso and co

I don't care what eulogies he get, from where I am standing; Local records all round.

If you are expecting goals and assists from midfielders to justify anything, I see no reason we can't expect the same from goalkeepers, especially when my record tells me that some goalkeepers managed to rake in more career goals than some outfield players.

That's because you are a woman, and women generally are not to be allowed where ball is being discussed...unless it's in the inner room and the balls are different

Maybe you should tell us about Ronaldo's cleansheet records or Messi's interception tally.

Buffon is the most expensive GK and has justified his fee as the greatest GK in modern history. What has Pogba done to justify his Transfer fee?

How long will it be sustained? That's the point.
Jose Mourinho's 2004 Chelsea will actually go down as one of the most efficient arrangement put together in a short time and it impressed everyone, haters inclusive. One in a million. Sustainability though is another kettle of fresh fish.
The greatest teams assembled needed time.

So what would you call rooneys form! 26 appearances in all competitions since the season began in august 2016, 3 goals, 6 yellow cards?


That's POVERTY!

Rooney has played just 813 minutes and has 5 Assists as an AM, winger. Rooney is not been considered to worth £50m and a future of the team.

Griezmann would becoming as a future of the team, I think he is not qualified

Relegated or not the side wasn't built overnight.

I didn't include Pedro with Fabregas and William simply because these players appear to be squad players along with Terry and Zouma who are out injured.

The present Chelsea side already has a reliable spine in spite of their misfortune last season. The new manager has added tactical variation, few solid players who fit their roles within the system and perhaps a better work ethic/determination that wasn't there last term.

I honestly don't think Chelsea fits your description of a newly built side.

This Pogba debate is really boring and tiring, go and check is stats, and you will see why almost all the top teams wanted him, only that they are cash-trapped.

Four new players to answer your question.

But check the list of players who have left United since Fergie left and see why you can't use that as a yardstick.

Only Rooney (nearly a squad player) Carrick (recently restored to the starting side) Young (hardly makes the bench) Valencia and De Gea are left from United's last title win.

Just 5 players.

Not really. He still hasn't impressed me. For the fact that we still have to spend huge to replace Carrick after spending this much is a testament to the fact that we have issues identifying targets and negotiating good deals. Pogba is a good player yes but nothing out of the extraordinary when I compare him with others playing in his position or around the midfield.
lol.... funny u.

1)....Pogba and carrick are 2 different kinds of players


2)... Just because u have Pogba and bought him for that amount doesn't mean he alone should/can play in central midfield.


3).... Looking for Carrick's replacement after spending dat much doesn't show zilch. We needed a CM and we've got arguably one of the best around and


4).... He doesn't need to lift d world to impress u. If u are expecting Jay Jay, dinho, Mak4, Zizou,Xavi and Iniesta rolled in one then am sorry for ur disappointment...


5).... Please call d names of the players you wanna compare him to that plays in his position or around the midfield that are extraordinary.


We will continue to buy midfielders cos for long dat department got neglected by SAF. The earlier u see him as a different person from Carrick, d better for u...




P.S; next target now for Woodward and his gang is to look for a deep lying playmaker or better still a DMF.

Well he was a liability back then in a two man midfield. Always trying to beat 2-3 people, losing the ball in the process and then creating problems for our defence and midfield. If not that mourinho brought in Carrick where would we have been? If you look at it sef Hererra is even the one doing all the hard work while Pogba is allowed to lazy around

Good you said was... Remember the match against boro, after manu was trailing, Fellaini was subbed out, it was only Pogba and Herrera in the midfield. You could see how he was dictating play from deep, remember his contribution towards the first goal?

PS: People talking of Pogba improving based on system bla bla bla are clearly wrong. He was just adjusting to the nature of EPL. Wasn't it in the same old setup he shone in his first EPL game?

Well as long as we keep winning I'm we're impressed. Like I said there's nothing he's doing that others in his position isn't doing. I will like to see how he plays against top oppositions though. That's my major concern. So far it hasn't been good but there's a game to put this matter to bed once and for all on the 14th.

However if you you meant this, playing the gender card, you should know is not only condescending and arrogant, it is undeserving and insulting. I am calling you out because you have a reputation of being a socialite and jester but even you should know when there is a line. I hope you take the correction in good faith.
