I can’t think of one attribute Eriksen has over Pogba. The only attributes you can think of are off the pitch. Like agents, the circus around Pogba, etc.

On the pitch, Eriksen has nothing over Pogba. Under Mourinho, there were shit players. When few quality players were added, Ole was a shit manager.

This is the first time in a while United had a decent manager with a crop of quality players and you can see the changes already. If Pogba were to be here now, you would be singing a different tune and wondering.
Pooorgba cannot even be here now because ETH woulda kicked him out even before preseason.

Tbhv, it's good riddance to very bad rubbish - he should continue his dabbing in Italy upon discharge from whatever hospital he is atm

Herrera, Bruno, and Carrick played well with these players and ex-coaches, are you guys not tired of daily excuses? Coach, Players, Ref, Condition, media, Padlock, Key, Dm etc

None of those trio was as good as Pogba.

Pogba thrown around the pitch because of quality players. In his time at United, he played as a DM, CM, AM, LW.

Eriksen could never.

What about consistency?

When you are regularly injured like Pogba does, it’s hard to find consistency.

Good form -> injury -> good form -> injury(again).

I have never seen Eriksen on this stage of elite players.

We need to stop disrespecting Labile. Eriksen is doing a very good job right now, we don’t need to start comparing a very good Christian Eriksen to a great player - Paul Pogba.

Pogba won the World Cup.

He even scored in a World Cup final after many of his critics said he was being carried by Kante. He scored and improved the team after Kante left the pitch.

How many United players won the World Cup?

Never in the history of football have we ever heard the term “unlocking a footballer” grin Poorgba pioneered the term and till today remains unlocked. Only player whose quality only shows “on his day” which is once every decade. Never seen a con artist like Fraudgba all my life.

Aside physicality, there’s nothing pogba has over Eriksen. Even as a half dead, I would pick Eriksen over and over again not to talk of prime Eriksen.But this is what you get, when you trade the important years of your career at a useless club like Tottheham. I pity the likes of Son and Kane, by the time they retire, people would say Elanga and Abraham were better players.

Juventus should keep enjoying their dab lord on his days —which may not even come till he contract runs down . grin Good riddance.

Yet, Eriksen has won nothing for Spurs. When they were in a title race with Leicester, Eriksen managed to come 3rd.

Eriksen hasn’t pulled trees for Denmark either. Eriksen has never graced the top XI players in the world. I can’t remember him scoring in any final. When he faced Liverpool in a CL final, he was eaten alive.

Please, Pogba is clearly the better player.

Doesn't matter what he has won or not. Is Giroud better than Kane?

How many World XI has Paul Scholes graced? Is Toni kroos better than him?

We would never know cos your analogy is wrong. They played in different eras.

Pogba/Eriksen + Kane/Giroud are all playing in the same era. We should be able to form a more accurate comparative analysis between them.

This could be true but he is still better than Eriksen. cheesy
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by benji93: 5:59pm On Sep 17, 2022
You are not following. Pogba has proved himself to be undisciplined. He would probably get Guardiola fired. Besides he be like na back of TV you dey watch. De Brune wasn't a regular under Mourinho, and he was about 21. It's normal for midfielders to reach their full potential 25 and above. I am not even sure Pogba is the kind of midfielder Guardiola would want to deploy. I am not sure Salah is a good example either. Sorry, you are grasping at straws here. Pogba is one of the most overrated midfielders I have ever seen. My scouting report on Pogba is rather brief. cheesy grin. He's a good player, who's occasionally world-class.
Englishisamust:
No aba pogba. Compare pogba under masimillino Allegri, Deschamps and mouriho. Vs under ole and gengenpressing master.

Compare Salah and debruyne under mouriho Vs under klopp and guardiola. You will know what im saying. Debruyne that was nothing under mouriho became a worldclass midfielder under guardiola.

How often was Pogba injured when Mourinho signed him?

Inconsistency was the reason he was played all over the pitch. And he failed to excel in all those roles.

Boss, no cap this one. Both were youngsters who wasn't given time/opportunity to show their talent and as soon as they had the opportunity, they shone. Kdb won best player in bundesliga if I'm not mistaken before he was even bought by Man city. He was already a top star. Salah himself was already shining very well in fiorentina as well as AS-Roma.

No compare them with Pogba who needed unlocking from Herrera to Fred to Mctominay yet he couldn't be unlocked. Someone who needed at least two good workhorses in order to be unlocked is whom you're comparing output with Eriksen (one of the best Midfielders in EPL).

Pogba ko, poorgba ni
You guys just talk without context.

I'm not satisfied with the way Pogba's United career went.

But name a team where he played and was "poorgba" as you call it.

That first half they absolutely dominated Spurs. They just can't defend set-pieces to save their lives. Maddison is their go to man so everything flows through him. Curious how the second half will go, they should remove Daka for Iheanacho.

Their defense is quite rubbish. True.

And playing through Maddison, sometimes, could be the right thing to do as he’s quite good some times.

But what happens when he’s marked out of the game?
