There's no doubt that Pogba made a mistake with the challenge on Bellerin in the box. Ole knows it, we know it, and most of all, Pogba himself knows it and has apologized for it.
Let's face it, no one is perfect. The massive price tag on Pogba does him no favours either as people are always going to expect lots from him. I can't deny that Pogba giving away 3 penalties this season is an issue - but clearly it is an issue the coaching staff and Pogba himself are going to look at and hopefully rectify. What I can't stand is the toxic vitriol hurled at Pogba from our own fans.
Let's get behind one of our own players in Pogba. We know he isn't the best defending in his own box but all of a sudden everyone forgets his through ball to Greenwood in the previous game that set the stage for a solid victory over a tough UCL opponent. The loss to Arsenal didn't result solely due to Pogba's error - the rest of the team didn't perform anywhere near we know they can.
