You never know. Fellaini's been our DM, our box to box beast and our midfielder ball-getter before. Next on the list is the playmaker.

Love watching Pogba
I am surprised Mouriniho hasnot figured it paugba's best position. He either has to look where he played for Juventus or develop him to position and style of a yaya toure or a patrick viera..
Another possibility is maybe the player is highly overated and or needs few seasons to develop.
I hear also of a left sided midfielder as his best position several times though not sure what and where that position is.

Yep he's done well for a redcafe baby elephant
Left side in a midfield three, 4-3-3. Watch the end of the game against Burnley and the Swansea game
I genuinely believe he is/can be one of the most technically gifted players we've had during the Premier League era. Up there with the Ronaldo's, Scholes, Cantona's, etc. He really does have all the ability in the world, he's brilliant to watch at his best. The fact he's 23 is amazing.
Patience was always needed with him and this despite the ridiculous fee involved. He is still young and adapting to the league and team but the signs are so promising, his potential is scary. Fans need to be patient with him.
It's a joy to watch him play, amazing technique
He's some player... if he was in a Juventus shirt in those clips everyone would be jizzing over them, but as it stands he plays in red so he ends up in #4 in some hack's list of 'worst summer transfers'
That said, if you want technique - check out this bad boy:
I said this when people were moaning after 6 games. Six. The guy is unique. A phenom.
I still think he's going to click up a gear and become a world class attacking talent worth 20 goals a season.
Beastly highlights player
Hopefully he'll be able to keep up the good form he's shown in recent weeks!
It's evident that he's a level (or even a few) above the rest of our current outfield players. Him and DDG are the only two genuine world class players we have; some (like Martial, Bailly, Shaw, Rashford, TFM) we hope develop into stars, but we really need more Pogba-level outfield players if we're to compete at the highest level again.
Good video. We can see that he's much more in shape now than at the beginning of the season, but we can also say by watching this videos that Zlatan has missed a lot of chances too.
People keep saying that without Zlatan misses Pogba could have already 5/6 assist and 3/4 more goals
Really hope that he'll break Coquelin and Xhaka tomorrow
He's our most exciting player since Ronaldo IMO.
Rashford and Martial a close 2nd.
Rashford and Martial a close 2nd.
Nani for that short period? Rooney when he was one of the best strikers in the world? Di Maria wasnt great but such an exciting player as well.
I think he is referring to potential - Pogba has everything needed to reach the top of world football. With the exception of Martial and Rashford, I haven't been this excited by a player in a long time. Januzaj was the last one for me, who knows how he will turn out though.
The amount of clear-cut chances that Ibra has missed this season is absolutely inexcusable.
I disagree. Mainly because the bad performances come in the big games against our direct rivals, when we need our big players to step up most. Playing a stormer in games we are expected to win isn't the one. We would beat Swansea 9/10 without him anyways
Future United captain
No way. His pass completion is far lower than Scholes and his long range shooting is too random. Becks and Scholes on another level technically. In fact as a whole the technical level of our squad has decreased from those days. Whenever Becks or Scholes made a long/risky pass, I expected 100% reaching its destination and was surprised if they missed.
So what if he performs another vanishing trick against a big opponent tomorrow? Back to slaughtering him?
He dominated the worst side in the league and the mood here completely changed.

Why are you stinking up the Pogba thread with a Fellaini compilation?
There's more to technique than passing. Pogba is vastly superior to Beckham in lots of different ways even if he's inferior when it comes to cross field passing.
The mood "here" means feck all when you're talking about a forum with tens of thousands of posters. There were quite a number who asked for patience even when he didn't light the pitch on fire and there would be quite a few who'd still have their reservations.
As for football fans appreciating a good performance of one of their players is concerned, absolutely shocking, yeah.
He wasn't even as poor in big games as some people are saying. Poor against City yes, but we were completely overwhelmed that day and there were worse performers in midfield (Mkhitaryan and Lingard). He did his tactical job against Liverpool and created the best chance of the match, if Ibra didn't miss it would have been hailed as a classic Mourinho win against a big team. Chelsea game was a disaster in general, players underperforming significantly and we were playing some sort of 6-3-1.
While I agree with you, there were some posters who were crucifying him. It's the generalisation of the entire forum the way orc did so as to mock the Caf for being fickle as a whole that irked me. That and the bizarre shock at people being happy about a good performance.
For some reason some people just want this place to be house for negativity.
God forbids Pogba has had some excellent few weeks and looking on the up. Some just don't want to have none of that and would rather get back to telling themselves the same delusional lies about how Pogba is some average player.
People called for patience a few games into the season and now that he's getting into the groove his detractors are trying to straw grasp.
The likelihood of a talent like Pogba being a flop like some want to believe is close to zero. Some will need to get used to that.
And yes I'm gonna keep calling out all those kneejerkers a few games into the season as much as I can because they deserve to be named and shamed if possible.

I concur. He has been able to rack up over 110+ per game against the likes of Leicester City, Hull City and Burnley, including 144 against Zorya. However, he only managed a total of 117 in games against Liverpoola and Manchester City twice. So, he went from 1.6 passes per minute against Zorya to 0.43 passes per minute against two top 6 sides. When we look at the likes of Xavi and Iniesta, these are the sort of players he should be compared to. These guys are well known for passing 90-100 times per match against any opponent that was/is facing them, no matter what the quality of the opposition was. At the moment, he is getting there, but just as it is too early to judge him because we are early into the season, it is by the same token, too early to say that he will be great.
I get where you're coming from but showing the good performances is encouraging for me, if he shows up tomorrow it will have been a very promising start in my opinion. Although naturally if he doesn't play well in a big game over the course of a season and naturally zlatan won't either we aren't going anywhere.
He's going to be our best player in two years. I would go as far as to say he's more talented than Martial
Unfortunately, what Zlatan has to realise that apart from the cannon fodder like Leicester City and Hull, not every team is like a football team from ligue 1. Ligue 1 and the Premier league are totally different worlds. Over in France, he was treated like a god by the french media and he loved it. Everyone loved him. Over here, it is different. He looks for attention and he is finding out that even though he scored 150 goals in 151 games with Paris Saint Germain, the English league is a whole new ball game. He is finding out the hard way and even if he came here 10 years ago, it would have been the same. He is suited to slower, more relaxed "retirement home" type of leagues.
He won't realise, he's not a big game player, to be honest we were crying out for someone like him who can deal with the cannon fodder though so i'm still happy with having him. Combined with Mourinhos very defensive set ups in big matches we can carry him if we get our wide players up to scratch but to be honest we've had nothing from out wide all season and that's because Martial and Mkhi are our best players there but they're struggling.
You shouldn't have needed to say it tbh. It should be common sense that players need a bit of time to find their best form, specially in a team in transition/construction/whatever.
In two years, he will become our best player much sooner than that.
It is and against top quality teams, Becks and Scholes did their job really well and for what it is worth, ever since Scholes retired, I haven't seen a player who could strike a ball towards the goal like he could, and his passing; could ping a ball 100 yards and it would land on a sixpence. We will never see the likes of Beckham, Giggs and Scholes again, not in my lifetime anyway.
The mood you're talking means absolutely feck all tbh. It just corresponds to what you're convinced yourself of.
One of the main reasons as to why Barca got rid of Zlatan in the first place. To play for them, you have to be an exceptional player and have a very high standard (those days anyway) and what Zlatan brought to the table wasn't enough for them. Comparing Suarez and Neymar to Zlatan is oranges and apples.
