Never liked him.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!
They’re fecking with the wrong baller.
Just you wait, once Pogba is back from his doping ban he will release a new line of drugs #POGESTERONE with a Snapchat advert starring the reanimated corpse of Mino Raiola and a dancing #Pogmoji.
One to forget
I'd bring him back
This, but unironically
This thread is great to “smoke out” the ones abusing hard drugs.
I bet there are few who thinks he is worth the gamble.
I don’t think hard drugs are enough to explain some posts.
I want him and JLingz back.
What’s with this bump?!
Are we missing something? Did he came out of retirement or what? Why the bump?
Because @TsuWave is obsessed with him
This is the Pogba thread. I came across a thread with some skilful moments and posted them in his thread. I like football.
Please don’t be weird
Announcement coming soon about his ban
Played about 8 games for Juve since 2022. Enough said.
Some of these moments are so underwhelming. Like the Everton goal. He stabs the ball to a guy, that guy then bends one in from twenty yards. Like, how is that a highlight?!
Tbh, I thought it would be a selection of all the times he lost the ball.
It sucks that his career became such a joke. He’s such a gifted player, both technically and athletically.
I mean, it’s a subjective thing ultimately. It’s a decent trivela pass - which I’m assuming was included more to showcase his range than anything else. I see plenty of skilful moments in said thread, but again subjective.
I think you’re trying too hard to dunk on him - there’s no indication that it would be a selection of times he lost the ball.
I think you're trying to hard, trying to use ten dollar words to describe a pass.
fecking "trivela"
Is that not the term for outside of the boot passes, shots and crosses? It doesn’t inherently mean it’s good or hard to pull off - it is just a word used to describe something. Shouldn’t illicit anger nor hostility
It is a strange bump. We know he could pass. It was a key strength. It’s such a shame that he never had the fitness or the mental fortitude to be at a top club
Think it's a great pass, myself. Looks simple but it comes in fast, accurate, without back lift taking everyone by surprise.
Do you think that it would have ended this way for him if his agent hadn’t passed away?
Anyone still feeling hurt when people were calling him out for hanging out in the middle East while "injured" ?
I don’t get what you mean Golden Blunder - you’re staff so you likely have a better understanding of this than me - but surely we don’t only post stuff that “we don’t know” in these threads, so I’m confused by your “we know he could pass” qualifier.
Again, I like football and skilful players, came across a thread showing moments I thought were skilful and posted them in the respective player’s thread for anyone that might be bored/appreciate a couple of nice clips. I didn’t post those videos looking to argue with anyone or cause offence. Did I violate a forum regulation by posting Pogba highlights in the Pogba thread?
I wonder the average age of the people who still fawn over him. Genuinely bizarre.
Fascinating bump. It’s all very drama like and fun reading.
It's a shame how it worked out for Pogba. I know he won the World Cup and a few other club trophies, but he should have been so much more. How it's ended for him is depressing.
Could have been Zidane. His own fault really that he cared more about maximizing earnings and making money for his agent
Irrespective of some if the issues fans and myself had with him at times, he's up there with one of my favourite players to watch when he was on it.
No nothing in the rules against it. But for a player who may never play professional football again I just found it strange. Especially some of the examples posted since I’ve seen better. It just seemed a bit random
I don't understand. He was injured then and then got injured again at Juve (before getting banned anyway). If anything his stint at Juve proves his issues with injuries at United were real?
I hope this doesn't happen. Really do. He is young enough and talented enough to get fit and still be a star. Benzema won Ballon D'or at 34. Griezmann is 32. Paul Pogba is 30.
He remains one of the footballers I would genuinely pay to go and watch, if fit and healthy of course. When he is on his game, he is brilliant. No one quite like him. Not saying he is the best, but he is briiliant. I can remember him playing a friendly for France at Wembley, I think Benzema scored the winner... he p***ed over anyone in that game.
As someone who loves football, I want to see Pogba, Neymar, fit and playing.

Nah he's finished. He's actually been finished since the 21-22 season. His physicality fell off a cliff from all the injuries and all that was left was a player who can ping a pass but not do much else.
It wasn’t an exercise in “Pogba is better than”. Someone made a compilation of some of his assists for us, I came across it, liked some of the clips and posted them in the player’s thread. I’ve done the same for Neymar previously. Sometimes it’s OK to just share/watch clips of people playing football - outside of all the forum “vs” noise.
