I'd imagine when he signed, he'd want assurances that Utd ARE going to be recruiting more world class players, so they and him can get back to winning titles. Why would he be interested in signing for a team that promises to not get better for a decade? That's just ridiculous.
Pogba signed because the team was going to be built around him for the next 10 years. Obviously the team will be strengthened with world class players but not Neymar...Pogba isn't a number 2. With Neymar, he automatically becomes a number 2. Pogba wants to become Jordan, not Pippen.
Pogba can accept to be a number 2 with the french team (Deschamps with Griezmann) but not in club. He said it a few months ago in an interview in French for sofoot ( http://www.sofoot.com/IMG/img-so-foot-136-1461053644_x700_articles-220863.jpg ). His goal is to become the best midfielder in the history and the equal of Maradona and Pele... he has a big ego and crazy ambitions. I don't think that he'll achieve his crazy goals but he'll try and with Neymar it's impossible because people will always argue that he wasn't the main man when Manchester will win trophies.
There are plenty of players who could improve the team...and it will not be Neymar as long as Pogba is here.
