Mumu Pogba scored 7 goals at Juventus before joining United he is never known for scoring many goals.

If i ask you to back the highlighted with your june salary now, you will run and cover your head with pillow.

ChristineC:
that's why opinion are as diverse as colors on a chameleon so it's rather appropriate to lay on the facts!
9 goals and 5 assists into 89 = £6.36m/contribution + 5MotM
2 goals and 2 assists into 32 = £8m/contribution + 1MotM
since I've been around here all that matter is goals and assists, so let's be consistent enough.
eskis me but how do you define value for money again?

their respective playing careers are not over so there are more Windows to observe clearly but it's obvious who's going to be mentioned alongside the best in the business.

everybody expects bigger things from Paul Pogba not because of the fee (except some clueless ones) but because he is the bigger talent, and by a very wide margin. nobody expects N'Golo Kante to achieve certain things because it will be unusual for just another Johnbull, yet when ridiculous comments like "it's not even a debate" starts flying then it degenerates to undiluted comedy.

You buy a 3000usd tv and you dont expect it to bring premium production because of the price, you are a joke. Quality is directly proportional to price in a sane market. Stop deceiving yourself, i cant buy ferrari and expect it to be sounding like keke napep. You pay the price for quality, you not talking to mumu here.

hensben:
Is this true?

I later found out herrera was awarded man utd's player of the year. Pogba was not even in top 3. This was adjudged by the club not me. Only fools will believe pogba measured up to standards expected of him last season.

[quote author=ChristineC post=57704150][/quote]Dont get it twisted, he took up responsibility and scored a goal, though a deflected one, against ajax. Something he failed to do against any of the top 10 teams in epl over 2 legs. He needs to improve, so that his case wont be like that of di maria or memphis deyplay. 89m and he is not man utd's player of the year, that's pathetic.

dopeJemi:
so how many did modric score this season? how much is modric worth? the same iniesta that you guys slate ibime for, how many league goals does he score? how much is he worth? how many goals does veratti score? how much is he worth?


i call you people hypocrites for a reason, and I am always vindicated, can you remind me what your exact lines were when hazard couldn't score up to 6 league goals two seasons ago? remind me please, that is someone who plays further up the pitch


quit the bullshit, you don't buy a midfielder to score goals, that is just a plus, he was brought to steady the midfield and create chances, that he has done quite well in his first season

That plus (goals) is what made his money 89m. It is not about steadying any fvcking midfield. There are many players around that could steady midfield and wouldnt cost that much.

Spy360:
A player's price should be a reflection of his quality.

At £89m, Pogba should be in the cream de la cream of world footballers. Or at least the best in his position. Moreso the best in the English League.

Is he?

No.

Case closed.

He was not even man utd's player of the year. Valencia and ibrahimovic outperformed him. Let them be deceiving themselves.

hensben:
He can't play Moses position; he's a left footer and not defensive. He will be competing with Pedro or a back up to hazard.

I was confused after reading his moses/mahrez line. Mahrez playing rwb is like messi manning the goal post.

dopeJemi:
so because they are not worth 89m, they Are not supposed to score or assist, I see. so if you are bought for a huge fee, it means you must score goals like messi and ronaldo whether you are a goal keeper, defender or central midfielder

so scoring screamers makes his worth 89m, I am surprised charlie Adams is not being priced away for 60 to 70m

airmark, well done

If money is not the answer, show me working (in falz voice). If you cant score up to 8 league goals every season as a cm in this era, you are not worth 89m. Charlie adam? You are a drunkard. Pogba was believed to be a total package at juve. In man utd, his hair-cuts were more pronounced than his expected soccer outputs last season. I was expecting nothing less than epl player of the year award winning. I am not even sure he won united's player of the year award.

dopeJemi:
and when we start judging hazard by goals and assist now you will turn to a student of the defence academy

kindly pull out modric's stat, add kante's stat to it too

Kante and modric never worth 89m. That amount will buy like three kantes. Kante played in a system that put him as a dm like herrera. Pogba was bought hugely because he was a total package that failed to deliver last season. Get it?

CapitalCee:
Olodo, 9 goals for a deep lying midfielder? How many goals did Zidane and Xavi scored in their prime. Ozil an attacking midfielder scored 12 goals including the hatrick against Ludogorets. Ozil was bought for 48million 3 years ago. An ATTACKING MIDFIELDER

That's who you are, olodo rabata. Many arsenal fans believe ozil has'nt delivered, they believe he is a lazy player. If this is the type of players you want to mirror an 89m with, continue.

Funlord2:
Airmark abeg helep me with this bolded midfield messi stats biko!

Kante didnt cost us half of 89m. Pogba is the rare monster here, never found elsewhere that broke transfer records.

Funlord2:
Now that kunta kintes name has entered the mix he will take off just watch!

Who was chelsea's dm last season? Who was man utd's dm last season? You should get the clue why kunta should not be mentioned. Since ibrahimovic and others were wasting pogba's assists, we expected him to step up to the plate like he did against inexperienced ajax players and score numerous goals in epl. This he failed woefully to do. Where were those 35m screamers that wowed the world when he was at juve? When he replicates those moments consistently next season, we will praise him. 89m is more than republic of nauru's budget.

CapitalCee:
He scored 9 goals in all competitions last season, not bad for a deep lying midfielder... Abeg shift joor

9 goals in 51 matches is not bad to you, not impressive to me. This is pogba we talking about here, not herrera. 89m french monster.

Lana1:
Predictable airhead.

Like i said. No one cares. Injuries or not, Bale had a poorer season than Pogba. Next time, Bale should do his best to stay fit. Its not as if those injuries he sustained resulted from rash tackles from opposition defenders. And the times he came back from injury sef, he did nothing to light up that Madrid team to the extent that Madrid fans were wishing he'd have stayed injured!

I never said Pogba had a great season either. And yh, bcoz he cost 89m, people would expect him to be scoring like dem Neymar etc. But airmark, if u and anyone else had eyes, u'd know it wasn't Pogba's job to score in the way we were setup last season. His job was to create. And he did it well. How many goals did Matic and Fabregas score last season??

You are not always brilliant. Bale had a poorer season than pogba because of what ? Your views on injuries showed that you dont know much about injuries. There are some injuries that wont allow you to return to peak performance immediately. Recovery rate for a knee or ankle injury cant be compared with that of minor metatarsal. As regards bringing fab and matic into pogba's issue, thats where you shot yourself. Most chelsea fans criticized matic for bringing nothing much to the table, while fab didnt start most of our matches, he has better passes than pogba though. Thats why you see chelsea combing everywhere for reinforcements. If those two are who you are using as shields for your pogba, then i dont need to drag this any further.

Leyqute:
You mean the final in which he missed chances upon chances before finally scoring? Even Giroud would put one on thr net on that game.

Take it or leave it, Bale's best performance in the UCL is in a Tottenham shirt. Heck, his overall contribution to Tottenham is greater than his overall contribution to Madrid.

And talking about injuries, it's normal for players to be out of action for a few weeks or a month in a season, not 60% or even 50% of thr duratn of thr campaign. If he doesn't play continuously for the first 3-4 months of the next campaign Ascension will replace him.

You must be joking

Lana1:
Not anybody's business.

Pogba's major problem last season was our attackers not converting the various chances he created plus [b]the bad luck [/b]of most of his shots hitting the bar. I dont see u been "cautious in your reckless views" of him on the Chelsea thread....
Shift!!

It's known in sport circles that injuries hinder performances. Bad luck ko, padlock ni. The same bad luck that didnt stop him from scoring 8 goals each in his last 2 seasons in serie a, right? Typical african man. Pogba didnt leave up to the billings last season, you dont need to shy away from the truth. The best you can say is to wait till next season.

Leyqute:
Bale had approximately zero impact for Madrid last season, considering his abilities. He's been a subdued figure in Spain following his big money transfer from England. Not bad, but not exceptionally good either.

Another masterstroke by D. Levy.

Remember Berb30?

Do you know the number of games injury kept him out of, last season? You guys need to be cautious in your reckless views. 2 seasons ago, he was instrumental to madrid, winning the ucl. His major problem is injury.

SIRcumalot:
higuain was suppose to win the ucl for juventus i don't think anybody go call am failure.
anyhow,we do almost wetin we wan do this season. next season don reach,we dey watch una.

Higuain won serie a and got his team to ucl final. 6th position in local league, is not acceptable.

Funlord2:
Seconded!


Cc: airmark

Chai. You are crazy.

Nihilist:
I actually staked and lost to Funlord2

Are you serious man ?

SIRcumalot:
what was an 89m monster expected to do ?


we beat wetin dey our front,not our fault barcelona or real madrid no come face us for europa

He was expected to push man utd out of 6th position for months. 89m will buy 5 everton players

dopeJemi:
the amnesia in this post is that 50m didn't win you the champions league, it only sealed qualification into the final

Go and tell that to Puyol and valdes and ask mourinho too if pogba's europa final's deflected goal also sent man utd to ucl final.

SIRcumalot:
we still made the ucl mehn.
i thought that was the reason for why that placing was important ?and not like we go still dey play,play-off like the pool people

I remember telling nihilist, man utd would win europa, when he wanted to stake against it. Winning bertrand traore-led inexperienced ajax in final, wasn't something to send one to cloud 9. In epl, did pogba do what was expected of an 89m monster? NO!

dopeJemi:
the hypocrisy in this post is that your 50m player helped your team finish 5th

If 50m won ucl , it's ridiculous celebrating 89m man winning europa league. Have even forgotten that we won that cup. Last time i checked 5th position is better than 6th.

Mentions:
lukaku only functions wen he is given a chance, he wouldn't fight defenders for the ball or hustle for ball, he is a lazy version of drogba, morata however hasnt been really given the chance to shine as the main man.

The jury is still out on both of them.

See i'm not a lukaku fan, i prefer belotti, but what you typed up there is a ruse. The lazy striker between lukaku and morata is definitely morata. It's obvious you didnt watch madrid matches, where spineless defenders bullied him. Zidane and the spanish coach are not mad for pushing morata down the pecking order in their teams. Goals win matches, if you dont deliver them consistently with impressive numbers as a striker, your coach will look elsewhere. No coach will prefer a striker that only functions, when the energy levels of opposing players have dropped. You cant rely on a striker, that performs better as a sub as your main striker. When he was giving the chance how many goals did he score for juve? Because iheanacho scored every last 15 minutes he was introduced, wouldn't make him the best striker in epl.

SIRcumalot:
if we dey UCL,pogba for win am for us too.

I didnt expect a team having 89m player to finish 6th in the league. Thats why bale was laughing.

dopeJemi:
1: it's the competition that you find yourself in that you try to win, you can't be playing in the Europa league and hope to win the champions league

He helped man utd to clinch 6th position in epl, a competition he found himself. That was brilliant.

If sule couldn't command a starting shirt in confed cup, then the coach might have seen what i saw in the robotic defender.
Sulemana eeyan a40.

Unlimited22:
Remove Lukaku from that list and I'll agree he isn't blind.

Lukaku will outperform morata in that chelsea team. We dont need a striker who wont score 20 goals a season for us

20:40: Joe Cole has advised Chelsea to pursue Romelu Lukaku, Alexis Sanchez or Sergio Aguero ahead of Alvaro Morata.

Thank you joe cole, not everyone is blind. Morata ko, morapepper ni.

dopeJemi:
good, our 89m won us the Europa league trophy and took us to the champions league

Gareth Bale, knowing that he won ucl in his first season with real madrid, scoring in the final. His expression after reading your line, containing 89m.

A40:
Asensio. How can we steal that boy please?

That's the future of madrid. They will only sell him if you bring 500m.

PDPGuy:
The VAR made the right and quick decision; the entire process from when the ball entered the net to the final decision lasted less than one minute.

But it still has the potential to cause riot next summer

Yes it was a right call.

Chelseafan1:
Chicharito scores!!!!

Can this boy be worse than Costa??

Thats why i like sharp pocket-sized strikers. Blessed with sharp reflexes. See how he reacted swiftly to head home that goal.

Pepe's goal annulled by video referee in confederation cup. Hmnn.

lordfalcao:
but our sporting director is not working ??

Kante : “It’s true that PSG were like other clubs after my good season with Leicester.

“But I chose Chelsea after speaking to the coach and the sporting director.

Are you a chelsea fan? If you are not, you need to pay.

Ibime:
Mr Airmark, do you see what's happening on the cryptocurrency markets today? Are you still holding Bitcoin assets?

My Ethereum holding is taking a serious pounding today, but no shaking, I plan to hold for the next 18 months.

This one wey u put Mr., before my moniker, i dont understand o. My btc acct is almost empty, i sold last month, saw it coming.

vickertony:
Bro i thought is your account, am sorry for everything bro.
Accept my apology,please?

Have you contacted the buyer since this issue has been dragging? Instead of saying sorry up and down, what has been your effort towards getting his account out of the seller's control? The seller, you so much trusted? I didnt even know you lied that you collected the 50k so as to get seller's log in details. As escrow why would you turn in the log in details that you have confirmed worked to someone you have not met or know his residence? Man, you caused all this ish big time.
