What was Pogba doing in matches aged 19 that was so much better than Alli last season? And even that ignores the fact that Alli played both roles last season: box-to-box and AM.
You're a fantastic WUM tbh. You have the entire forum on strings for some bizarre reason.OK, Pogba was a key player in a piss poor league. Whilst Dembele was a key player in a far superior league. Go figure - and wait before more than 2 games have elapsed before giving Pogba the old "world class" and "far better than Dembele" routine.
WUM? The scary bit is that he really believes what he says. Pete used to WUM from time to time, Glaston really believes this nonsense he spouts.Pogba would walk into most midfields in the world. He's on a completely different level than Alli.
Credit to Glaston though, he really is tireless. Great WUM.

Then this simply underlines my point even more. Why don't you wait to see how Pogba actually fares in the Prem before proclaiming his brilliance?
I wouldnt put to much in to what happened in the euros. Almost every Spurs player underachieved/was out of form. Hodgson was useless. He was to stubborn and played with many players out of form and did changes way to late. Rashford should have played way more considering he was the player who was in the best form before the euros.Also internationally Alli has shown that he still lacks maturity at that level. Barkley should have played at the Euros. Alli was poor
Which ones are Dembele and Alli?
Tbh mate this is my impression of him at the euros I thought he was shit, he manages to emerge from tackles with the ball and gets the crowd going but his actual passing is below average.Actually watched a full 90 mins of Spurs today. Alli displayed some very concerning elements in his game: noticeable lack of focus, worrying too much about winding up and being wound up. Poor decision making. A very immature young man, both in terms of his football, but also his personality. Was very disappointed watching him today.
Not sure what you mean?Jealous much?
1) Alli showed more potential last season than Pogba did at the same age (19). This is a true statement IMO.
It's Lloris, he's obviously hiding on the picture like Alli and dembele.Where is the GK? And how is it an XI?

So Rashford is better than Kane then. At least he's showing more potential, right?

Do you even know what you're saying? It's utter nonsense. ....
No Glaston. Posters remember what you said about Pogba not getting into the Spurs side if he joined you this summer.I'm saying that Alli last season showed more potential than Pogba did at the same age. It's a simple enough statement with plenty of evidence to back it up, yet some posters insist on getting their knickers in a twist about it.
Just because some United fans think that Pogba is world class now (I don't, but that's a different subject) shouldn't mean that they can't acknowledge the truth of what I've said about Alli.
How is that a caveat. Rashford has made more starts than Kane at the same age. Thus he is better.Yes, he's showing more potential than Kane did at the same age. The only caveat (in comparison to Alli) is that Alli has made many more starts for Spurs than Rashford has for United and is an established part of the first XI.

Pretending this is all about potential at 19 is ridiculous and simply not true.

I actually agree with that. Alli last season did show much more potential than Pogba at the same age.
As Pogba's biggest fan that must've been hard for you to admit.I actually agree with that. Alli last season did show much more potential than Pogba at the same age.
Doesn't really count for much though. Pogba has showed his potential from age 19 and for four years and counting now. Plenty of players with a great season or two that then fizzles away into mediocrity. Let Alli show it for a few years at the level Pogba has, then I'll be impressed.
Once upon a time 'ardman Wilshere was considered the next big thing in CM.

Well same goes for Alli. He was better than Pogba when Pogba was 19. Though most see it next to impossible for him to be better than what Pogba is now.What are you arguing about. I've already said that Rashford is better than Kane was at the same age. What remains to be seen is whether he can become better than Kane has been over the last 2 seasons - which will be a very tough ask.
All players can have poor games, though I don't see how Pogba was poor yesterday.If Pogba puts in displays like he did against Saints I'll be eating humble pie, happily. I thought Pogba was poor yesterday, for the worlds most expensive player. Alli on the other hand was sensational last season, for a bargain buy from MK Dons. Very harsh criticism of Alli in this thread. And that's coming from me who has Alli in my fantasy team and is getting very frustrated with him.
