I particularly enjoy watching him play on the left wing when we are chasing games strangely. It happened a lot in 2016/17 too when we needed goals at the end. His quick switches of play with both feet and accurate crossing can be a real weapon i think from the wing plus he knows how to dribble and make surging runs from deep already. He does a much better job than our so called regular 'wingers'.Yep.
Maybe he does hold onto the ball for a tad too long at times, but at other times it is crucial. He keeps his head when everyone else around him is losing theirs and has an extra second or two. He’s on a different level to any of our other outfield players and would start every week for any side in the world.
He in a 2 man midfield is a disaster and that showed as soon as Fred went out.
Dunno what his general performance was like today but that assist was beautiful.
FixedWithout him, ourattackteam is nothing.
Best passer in the premier league. Best passer at the world cup. He also dribbles through players all the time. Yes he holds on the ball too long because nobody makes runs and nobody can take the brunt of creativity.
If I was him I would not be happy with this shit. He's good enough for Barca, real and Bayern easily.
Did we watch the same game?An acceptable performance. He has his weaknesses Pogba but we have 15 other problems/players to sort out before him.
Does it make me an asshole if the stupid concessions of possession stay with me as much as the goal? I really enjoyed most of the game and love watching him in imperious full flow but I'm always left thinking he's better than this. That shielding thing, where he ignores the 10 yard pass while trying to ward off 3 opponents with his arse? He was good but should be inspirational, raise the bar for himself, always look for perfection. He's losing the ball in shit areas and we won't get away with it against better opposition.
His best and worst in the same game again. So fecking infuriating. Hard to compliment him when he's the one who gave away the ball for wolve's goal. Need to be more declined.
We need to play Pereira along side him so all the burden isn't on him to create.
I wouldn't mind seeing this with Matic or Fellaini alongside them. I think that's what Fred was bought for really, but I'd like to see Pereira given more chances/offer competition when Fred settles.We need to play Pereira along side him so all the burden isn't on him to create.
Yeah he gave the bell away but that’s where his team mates come in. There was a enough time between him giving the ball away and the goal for other players to react and prevent but they’re too useless to do that. He was pretty much at the heart of anything good we did, again maybe if his team mates weren’t so useless at playing football wed have been a few goals up before Wolves’ equaliser.
Outstanding. Yep lost the ball but that shite happens all over the pitch in 90mins, it's on like he's was on the penalty spot doing stepovers....
Continue this way, he'll be gone next Summer as it's becoming harder to find this quality in football...
That would help, although the main problem is what they are creating for at the moment. The line in front of them is a mess.
He was fantastic yesterday but all of that is cancelled out because he lost us 2 points trying unnecessary trick in the wrong area. We need more vocal players on the team to absolutely lay into him behind the scenes for that because he lost us the game.

That's incredibly harsh and just not true. He made a mistake, of course, but Pogba did not lose us 2 points yesterday. There was still quite a bit of play between him losing the ball and them scoring. Luke Shaw done a poor job on the guy who crossed the ball; he just gave up thinking he already won the contest. Then the guy who scored was completely unmarked and it was a superb finish. Pogba was our best player, and that mistake does not take away from that.
We drew because we're completely incompetent in attack. Pogba pisses me off when he holds onto the ball too long, and he deserves criticism for the mistake, but he did not lose us points yesterday
