Well people failed to noticed that he was clearly told to stay back and not rush into attack, this was Sissoko and Matuidi role today. And in this role he could hardly make a big impact which CAF expected.

Poor first half, but thought he was good in the 2nd half. Better from France in general.
You'll struggle to live this one down.
He doesn't look like a player worth 120mil. That's for players like a young Paul Scholes, Iniesta or Zidane in now money.
Thread title should be changed to The French Cleverley 
Notice none of you lot wrote a post back disagreeing with him until after the 2nd goal though.
It's evident he is much more influential further forward.
It's also evident he works well in the reactive style that Jose favours.
120m now?
To me he looks like a player who should have 1-2 players beside him doing the donkey work and letting him have more a free role to strut his stuff in the top half the pitch.
3 players on him? What the feck?
Do. Not. Want.
Umtiti, tho.

Didn't do much wrong, did one thing right, still not worth his price tag may or may not be in the future. Still fun to watch the hyperbole seesaw.
He's essentially a Barcelona player already.Do. Not. Want.
Umtiti, tho.
Euros?
Dunphy just said ''Liverpool won't be quacking in their boots over us signing Pogba''.
What a washed up prick.
What a washed up prick.
That's what people have be saying, 100mil whatever....still no Zidane or Scholes
highlights player produced one highlight today, i assume the price is going up after that and him leading his team into the final
Hazard, Fabregas, Thiago, Ramos...
Every summer we do it to ourselves.
He's going to Real Madrid. 100%.

poor Griezmann.
If only he was taller, darker, and had a dead raccoon on his head.
I thought he put in a good shift today defensively, he made a lot of interceptions. He clearly had instructions to do a specific job, and when he had the chance to attack he showed his skills.
None of the three of them seem to know Griezeman signing a five year deal with Athletico last month saying they will struggle to hold on to him now
23 year old Pogba had numerous league titles, trophies and champions league (including a final) appearances to his name and has been at the heart of midfield for those.
I'm pretty sure 23 year old Paul Scholes was just arriving back to the club from a loan spell at Preston North End.
While that puts their levels out of context somewhat, it makes a bit of a mockery of the "young Paul Scholes" comment. The same 23 Year old Paul Scholes in today's market wouldn't be anywhere near 100m.
poor Griezmann.
If only he was taller, darker, and had a dead raccoon on his head.
Fontaine is that you?
Cleverlé.Thread title should be changed to The French Cleverley
Once again a solid performance from Pogba. Again he played as a defensive mid with responsibilities to protect his defense. In the second half he stepped up and his assist was world class.
If we buy him I looking forward to a great partnership with Schweini, maybe in the future with TFM.
I'm probabaly in a minority but from my perspective he's well worth the money.

for 100m he is available.
I'm very much hoping that United are gullible enough to blow £100m on him (even better, 150+m including wages over five years). It would be the ultimate triumph of hype over reality.
Griezmann is one for next year though, this year he's not the urgent area needed strengthening.
Our ambition is to be Spurs ..
That would best describe Tottenham finishing behind Arsenal this season.
But I thought nobody would want to join us with no CL footy?
Just 7 days more of this before he's being unveiled at Real Madrid then...
Didn't do much spectacular (Bar the lovely bit of skill to leave Kimmich for dead) but when you're playing the holding role like he was and you're 1/2-0 up against Germany it showed discipline to stay back and play it safe. It was a silent domination from Pogba and I'd be happy as a pig in shit if we signed a player like him.
For that kind of money I'd want Dembele or Delle Alli!
Well, your ambition next season should be to finish above us in the league. Meanwhile, back to Pogba ...
Do. Not. Want.
Umtiti, tho.
poor Griezmann.
If only he was taller, darker, and had a dead raccoon on his head.
see. no one is scared of us signing Pogba. PogOFF!!
You like Pogba, I see.
Becks went on loan to Preston, not Scholes.
at 23 Scholes would be part of the 96 & 97 PL winning sides?
