Just like yourself for the last month
Was kept quite by Marquinhos all game. atleast will get much needed rest in the 2nd leg
You would think people would realise that he is by far our best player by now but the same clowns who wanted him gone under Jose back in force tonight.
Bollocks.Verratti is so much better than Pogba defensively. The difference is night and day. Verratti's defensive positioning, instinct and tacking is on a different planet to Pogba.
Feasting on teams like Cardiff and Bournemouth is important, it gets you loads of points in a season but it would be nice to see him turn up v someone good.
Red card was just an accident. Alves came out of nowhere, not massively dissimilar to Nani’s against Real in that he’d committed to an action and an opponent came on his blind side and collided.
Also, marked off from the games is such an easy excuse for Pogba, he is basically playing wherever he wants and he is doing minimum defensive work.
Pogba's attacking game is on different planet to Verratti.
Oh,people would want him gone over tonight's game.That's how silly and reactionary football is.Pundits will have a field day this week.
Marked out of the game by a defender playing as midfielder. Remove Pogba and we lose most of our creativity because Herrera tries hard but isnt a creative force and Matic tries less hard but isnt very creative either.
Usually Pogba is good enough to bully his direct opponent but Marquinhos is quite good and Pogba didnt have the best of games.

Hes hardly produced in big European ties, what so funny about it?
Yeah, no malice, just habit I guess. PSG players got him sent off and I bet the twats in the VAR room had a snide word in the refs ear.
I don't disagree with you, Pogba's not a defensive player. He's an attacking player, that's where he shines, but he's asked to play both roles.
Which works if you have better team mates around you. Seriously, I say this all the time, swap Pogba and Verrati in their teams and you'd see night and day in their respective performances.
Very poor tonight, his red card just topped it all off. He wasn't the only one out of the players you would look to in these types of games for something special, let his frustration get the better of him in the end, either that or he fancied a night off for the return game.
We haven't played big European ties at all, he was the only player who looked capable of playing for Juventus when we played them at home. His record and performance vs big teams in league is good except few games. Odd post.
Has a long way to go before he's close to Scholes. I thought that was obvious but, reading back, apparently it isn't.
True.. just a bad part of his game. In the first 45 he also made a tackle to reach a ball and hit Alves while doing that. Small miracle Alves didnt roll around after that and got him a second yellow.
That's absolute rubbish, I hate how this same crap comes out every fecking time. What about Spurs and Arsenal last month? City last season? Even today he was our best player.
Honestly the state of some of you, he's easily our best attacking player and you lot are frothing at the mouth to be patronising every time we don't get a result.
It's going to be this at every game this level, you just have to find a way.
Thought he was ok, tried to make things happen but it let himself get frustrated and have no complaints about the sending off.
The annoying thing is Herrera and Matic not being able to advantage of the space left behind.

Why are you comparing an attacking player like Pogba to Verratti's defensive game? Apples and oranges.
That's just ridiculous. How can you quote my post and say it's rubbish then say something like that. He was literally one of our worst players.
I thought he was our only somewhat decent player tonight, save for de Gea of course.
They are like a rash that wont go away. Mourinho apologists and fans, not Utd fans. Imagine 'fans' chastising your best player in the hope he leaves, does that sound like fans who want the best for their team? Of course not. Best not to give these people any attention as that is what they want the most
People forget how poor Ronaldo was in big games for us too. Pogba can't do it all himself, he needed help and got none today
He was really bad - easily the poorest of our midfield 3.
He kept on doing that annoying thing where he waits for a 3 or 4 people to surround him before doing something. Problem is when you do it against top players, one of them usually will take the ball off you.

So are we going to cover up everything and he can do no wrong?
.....like I said previously, wasn't surprised the vultures have started circling. Next will be his hair, social media, cars and clothes etc. Absolutely pathetic.....
Who was better? He was taking players on, trying to pick passes. No one in our attack or midfield did anything the whole game. Matic maybe for trying also.
I thought he was poor and didn’t seem to do much of anything throughout the full match.
His intentions were good and had good touches but was marked out of the match then was closed down from multiple angles when he had the ball. Just too far from goal to make more influence. PSG played 3 in the back and narrow, which restricted his space and time. Fair play to PSG. Just shows that United need better quality around Pogba to be really, really good again.
I'm sure opinions will be all over the place given it's Pogba but I thought he was awful tonight. Sending off summed up his night.
Another big game he failed to even look 'decent' in. Matic and Herrera had to do some serious work out there while he was stinking it up.

The standard 'its everyone else's fault' pogba defence.
He was seriously frustrated with their antics tonight. He went mental when their played crowded the ref after the Young nudge. Could see him getting annoyed at their constant fouling and diving too.
He wasn’t great tonight, but having to deal with that plus all the play going down the other side in the first half didn’t help. Our best moment came from him bursting down the right.

Just like hazard should've found a way against Herrera. We can give a bit of credit to psg y'know?
What?
Standard balaks post whenever Pogba plays poor.
Hides when Pogba plays well and pops up whenever he plays poor.No he wasn’t he just couldn’t get into the game enough. The moments he did he looked like the one who could do something for us. Everyone else was rubbish and we resorted to Young hoofing it or Herrera trying wild shots.
