Too many excuses were made for Pogba. It wasn’t down to who he was played with or the system he played in, it was predominantly down to him.
He's a player I think would add to every squad in the world, mostly due to age and talent. He's very good now of course but there's absolutely nobody that would turn him down due to his age and experience already gained which means not too much extrapolation is required to see how he could become one of the top midfielders.
The problem for us is I don't really see the budgets being there under this current ownership. It might be but I don't think we'd be doing much else in the window. Are we really going to sign one or two players and that's it? It's the same problem with Osimhen as far as I can see.
i mean yeah that works too, but i was going for just a complete overhaul of the midfield group. Could have Case, eriksen, and then 3 new quality brought in that hopefully fits exactly what EtH would want. Then wouldnt have to rely on players like fred and mctominay who can either go missing or just have a shocker of a game randomly.Doesn't need to be a seperate Casa backup and starter,ideally get someone like Caicedo who is able to play either position

Someone explain to me how he fits in at the club?
Yea that Real side is set to continue being a fixture in Europe for years to come even after the likes of Modric and Kroos are gone, especially if they add a Bellingham.He'd be mental to go anywhere else other than Real Madrid. The age of the squad fits in with him (the young generation of players they have) and Kroos and Modric are gradually on their way out.

He will be Liverpool's Pogba. In the sense that Pogba came to United even though we were not in the CL. If he does go there, i hope he flops on multiple levels.Depends if he’d like to be in England. Can see him at city tbh.
Adrien Rabiot is the best option, free can play 6 or 8 and the right age with experience, add Macalister and someone like Enzo Le Fey we just spent £90m for three players who improve the squad no end.Doesn't need to be a seperate Casa backup and starter,ideally get someone like Caicedo who is able to play either position

We do need 3 midfielders because we need more goals from midfield, but HG is an issue too we need to replace Scott Mctominay with Homegrown if he goes, DVB and Fred can go, Sabitzer needs to finish season well for us to make that deal permanent. Pretty sure if new owners offer Rabiot £200k per week he’ll move!Think he burnt his bridges last summer,only need to go in his thread to see that. Afraid to say we won't sign 3 midfielders because Fred is still there
He choose dortmund because he was advised to do so.
So he could then get a transfer for a massive fee, signing on bonus and wages.
Would rather we get De Jong + one of the Brighton boys instead of spunking it all on Bellingham, we'd probably have change left over too.
I'd rather bring in De Jong as well, but that doesn't appear to be in the cards. And unless we're talking about an outrageous goal scorer I'm not comfortable with the idea of spending 120m on a single player.
If you take it extremely literally. If it’s true and I’m skeptical about that, then it’s more about the standing and prestige of the club. Liverpool might still be the place as despite recent reports there’s been so much noise about that move. Aside from them Madrid and us would fit that bill.In that case he’ll be retiring from football at a young age or be playing in the championship.

Im still not sure this is the right signing for us but if ETH rates him that highly then it could be worth it.
That’s what I feel too. We need more playmakers who build play up from deeper areas rather than box to box / AMs - the squad has enough of those.Have said it before he would be the right signing if we already had the midfield technicians of City & Madrid and were looking for something different

saw the video of that, someone commented getting Mount instead of Bellingham is like going for Murphy instead of GerrardIt is funny how the Liverpool pundits have down a complete u-turn on this now. Heard Danny Murphy saying he would rather get Rice and Mount in for about 100 million (good luck with that Danny). The last few years their whole mantra has been how Liverpool are so well run because they know who they want and then wait until they can get the player they have identified. Think it was only this weekend Murphy was talking about he would always choose quality over quantity too. Strange lot.
