Can't wait to target Saul and Camavinga and end up with Sean Longstaff for 45m.
Paul Pogba / turned down United offer of 300k as “nothing”
- Thread starter MyOnlySolskjaer
- Start date
Just remember we wouldn't have got near the EL final without Pogba playing wide as wide playmaker. And we literary already signed Sancho for the role.
How many trophies?
Nothing is wrong with his performance. This ain’t Taarabt. He’s delivered. He’s won us trophies and helped us gain our new level of success which is top 4. It’s not his performances that are the issue. Otherwise there’s w long list of current players with less talent and less acceptable performances.
What did we get from him during his years here? Very little for what’s worth I would say. Ridiculous overreaction, we’ll get someone who’s a much better fit tactically.
Taking it in the arse once is enough for most people.
Actually it's his Stella defending I'll miss.
We also dropped him into midfield when Fred and McTominay where having a stinker as they are poor on the ball and doing there best to lose us one of the latter games.
Jack Grealish.
What player is this? We need a DM which he doesn’t offer us but we also need someone to dictate play which non of our current midfielders bar him offers us.
So we best have a good plan.
Time to get rid and bring in ready made replacement Jack Grealish. It’s now or never smash city out of the water
I mean he is. Look at France. Pogba is their best player every tournament.
So who does Jack replace? Rashford or Bruno?
Neither. He’d be ideal at LM of a midfield 3 in 4-3-3.
Disaster.
Excellent. The sooner the better.
Get the circus as far away from this club as possible.
The same as we got from our current players here. I don’t get your point. Are we a one man team?
Also who fits us better? I’m not disagreeing there I’m asking how does it improve us. Does replacing him with Neves (eg) improve us?
But we won't sign him.
Probably looking for higher salary and longer term. 3 year at his age would reduce his chance of getting a better contract down the line. Last chance at big contract. Would actually be an idiot to accept 3 year contract at his age
Playing with who?
If Pogba is going just say feck it and sell VDB too so we can get Rice and Grealish.
If VDB is the Pogba replacement we are fecked.
If VDB is the Pogba replacement we are fecked.
True. Would he looking for a 5 year deal.
It will be a positive for us when he finally goes. We could replace Pogba with a player of half his quality and double his commitment and we would be better off. And such a player is plentiful and relatively cheap. I really struggle to understand the people who act like losing a non-commited player is a big deal. He doesn't care about winning and he doesn't care about the club, so why on earth should we care?
Huge Pogba fan, but time to move on and focus on those that want to be here.
Could be looking at another Moyes era decline. Once again we take a step forward and then two steps back.
We don’t play that and what is his role in that formation? When is the last time you’ve seen him show good defensive attributes?
Pogba is capable of brilliant passing but I wouldn't say that he dictates play for us. He doesn't really set the tempo or control the team around most of the time.
Hope we do if we’re actually selling Pogba. Ole needs to push the board to go for him. We can try including Lingard in a deal if possible.
He wrote a song titled "feck off to Paris"?
Neves actually plays in a midfield position we don't have so yeah he probably does. We can't even play Pogba in CM due to the deficiencies in his own game. He dwells on the ball, loses it in bad areas and fails to track his runners.
Neves might not have the ability Pogba does but probably a better fit for our team.
Carrick probably didn't have the natural ability Pogba has but he was a much much better player for us. Why? Because his attitude was spot on. Always.
When playing against teams who don't sit deep, we need Pogba in advanced area and we can't play him in the deeper area but when we playing against teams who sits deep we need someone who offers more in attack than Fred/McT. Does this not enough to tell people what we actually need is someone who is more all rounder midfielder who can offer like 50:50 defense and attack not just someone who offers in attacking alone like Pogba?
It has been a waste of 5 years for both United and Pogba.
Neither benefitted from each other.
Time for both to move.
I very much predict him to look like prime Zidane against French teams.

Because we're losing Pogba?!
I'm a long term Pogba defender, but thats utter utter nonsense.Rumours are we might switch to this formation.
His role will be driving the ball forward from midfield.
I’m sure his defensive attributes, if and when required of him, will be better then Pogba’s.
But that’s his job in the team. He doesn’t do that because we don’t really play possession based football. But for that role that’s his job. The only player in our squad can do that is VBD. However he would need to play and he’s not a better player than Pogba as we all know. So it’s a set down. But that doesn’t matter if we get a quality DM.
I just hope these guys at our club are on job.Otherwise next season will be a fail unfortunately.
Nah but it says "goodbye" a lotPogba scored less goals than Scott Mctomminay last season and only got 6 assists. Let's not go overboard with how 'important' he is to our team. He's probably not even top 5 most pivotal players for us.
If the club is serious they recognise losing Pogba is a huge loss regardless if what people think
We need a DM with Pogba staying.
So if Pogba goes we should be signing a DM and a CM or Grealish.
It may sound crazy but we need two players to ensure our Midfield doesn't get worse
Cause right now our midfield already isn't good enough. If we risk it regressing next season by not adding to it and replacing Pogba it will cost us next season.
I guarantee it.
Or it could be that after the years that he's been here, he doesn't see us having progressed any further than when he joined. Should be a wake up call to the powers that be that we need really to be challenging this season
Well if he does it for PSG and He does it for France and he Did it for Juve then maybe the problem was us????
