PART 2;




What thoughts come into your head when you think back to the Under 18s here, winning the Youth Cup and breaking into the first team?




Pogba: When I first came, I remember when I was at school at the academy. They used to come and drop us. I had this picture of my training. I saw Warren Joyce, I always remember the training I had with him, the changing room, the canteen where we eat, just the same and I was thinking about it before. It’s like a picture, I had my picture… it’s just something I cannot explain, it’s crazy. I just feel happy. There’s no words, to be honest, there’s no words. Just happiness. And I just can’t wait to start playing with my new team. It doesn’t look like it’s my new team, it’s just like I left this team and now I’ve come back. It’s just a great feeling to be honest.





We’ve missed you here on MUTV – we enjoyed having you here the first time. How did your experiences of being on MUTV regularly set up you?





Pogba: I started on MUTV. My first interview was here at United. So now I come back and feel like I’m doing my old interview I’m just taller, bigger, older. And I’m just enjoying it.





You’re signing for a very successful manager with a big personality, so how important was he in your decision to come here?




Pogba: First of all, I spoke with a lot of players who played under him when he was at Madrid – I spoke with [Alvaro] Morata, [Raphael] Varane
and they all told me he’s the coach for me; he will make me improve a lot and make me work harder. I feel this. I spoke with him a few
times and he gave me energy, he gave me
positivity. So I was thinking ‘why not?’ I’m
sure he can make me improve and make me a
better player and a better person.




It’s been a big journey for you over the last 6 or 7 years but you’re still very young in a footballing sense, so what do you feel you can achieve in your career?






Pogba: First of all, win the league for the first time with United, because I hadn’t won the league when I left. The Champions League, of course, and personally, one of my dreams is to win the Ballon d’Or. That will come with time
hopefully but first the Premier League – I’ve
never done it.






This move means you’re reunited with people like Jesse Lingard, who you played with in the FA Youth Cup-winning team. Have you kept in touch with those guys?







Pogba: Always we kept talking – I’ve just kept in touch with him. I’m very happy for him and
what he’s doing, very proud of him, because
he just keeps it up. I know he went on loan, he
came back, he went on loan again, but it was
just Jesse Lingard scoring goals, as always. So
I’m very happy for him. I see Sam Johnstone
too, and Will Keane and some other players
who went away. We just keep in touch and I’m
very happy for them.





The fans are excited to have you here,
so do you have a message for them?







Pogba: I’m back and I can’t wait to make them happy, to show them that I’m still Paul Pogba but in a different way, and that I came here not to joke but to make them happy and feel like we can win the league. That’s why I came here.

wink. POGBAS 1ST INTERVIEW:






David stowell: Paul, welcome back to Manchester United. How do you sum up your
emotions right now?



Pogba: There’s no words, to be honest, there’s no words. I just came back to Carrington. It was like I’d just come back home. I just went for a holiday, looks like I went for a holiday. I’ve come back home, I’m happy and I see everyone, the same persons. It’s just a great feeling, to be honest.



David: I suppose it’s a funny question after
what you’ve just said but why are you back here at United? What made you come back?



Pogba: I think it’s destiny, I would say it’s destiny. First my mum told me I would come back here and I told her, ‘You never know, you’ll see.’ For myself as well it’s a big challenge too, just to come back to where I came from, where I grew up, where I started. I didn’t finish what I started here so I think I came here to finish it.





David: And of course, you have to listen to
your mum…


Pogba: My mum, she says ‘Your mum’s always right.’ So she was right this time, so it’s good.




David: And how does it feel to be the world’s most expensive footballer? That’s
quite an achievement with all that
you’ve already achieved on the pitch…




Pogba: The thing with me is I only think about the pitch. I want to do great, I want to be one of the best, I want to win titles, I want to
achieve things and that’s all; that’s why I
came here, just to do this, to become one of
the best and to win titles because I know this
club has to win titles. This club is created to
win titles, to win things, to win big things. I
just focus on this and that’s it. I’m just ready
to go and work on that and just kill it.



David: Has it been a mad summer for you,
playing in the Euros at home for France
and then being linked with different
clubs?




Pogba: Yeah. Was there a bit of sadness? Of course, because we lost the final at home. But I will say I’m happy. It was a bad thing for a good thing so I’m happy now. I’m back home and it’s something crazy, it’s really crazy, I cannot
explain. I’m very, very happy, the feeling I
have in my body. I can’t wait to start.





David: What’s it like being Paul Pogba now,
compared to when you were here at 18
or 19, in this indoor arena at the
Academy?





Pogba: Well, I was younger. Now I’m taller and bigger. It’s just like… as I told you… it looks
like I went for a holiday and I came back home.
I was meant to come back here. I feel this. I
always had this United thing in my heart and
that’s why I came back. I’m happy, just
happy.





David: How have you changed as a player since
you were here at United the first time around? What have you learned about your game, about yourself? How are you different?





Pogba: I’m more experienced, I’ve won titles at
Juve. I’ve been playing with big players like when I started at Man United, of course. I
came back. I’ve not come back from the
Academy now; I went to play somewhere else
and I came back, I would say, as a person, as
an adult. I would say with experience, with
more games, so I think that’s the difference.

mekaboy:
What's all this nonsense ? You are the wife of the number one citizen in Nigeria for now. If you travel, your traveling in the Name of Nigeria.

Those at your level in your host country should accord you the same respect. You won't tell me Obama's wife will visit Nigeria and it won't be news.

Some will say she is humble and does not want publicity, if you don't want publicity you people should have stayed in daura.

Why won't the National Television show Nigerians where the wife of the president is and her movement.?

How can the wife of the president be playing hide and seek with the citizens of her country. ?

Abeg all thus rubbish must stop.
My friend sharrap and finish your breakfast!

Danhumprey:
What do you guys think of Blind being groomed as a permanent replacement for the ageing Carrick? Don't you guys think Daley can fill the shoe?
Blind can fill the role since he had some experience playing that role during his ajax days! He even won player of the season from midfield!


I don't think he is "nasty" enough to be a raging defensive midfielder, but as a carrick style deep lying CENTRAL creative midfielder I think it may work due to his smart passing and his prior experience as a rampaging left back! Those roles have taught him how to initiate attacks and contribute to build up play from the back!

Ah.......afrodoc2 my man! That was a brilliant hatchet job you performed on that cantankerous go go prancing coward yesterday!



Even from my gulag the spilled guts, intestines and molars were visible to even the blind! Please kindly call emergency services to dispose of the rotten carcass as soon as possible, because the stench of "roasted gayner" still permeates the board!



More 'steth to your scope' bro.....LMFAO!!!
