I haven't been chanced to watch virtually all our recent games..only for me to tune in today & see Pogba flop heavily against a top side yet again.....

Pray tell - why is Pogba such an unrepentant, paparazzi-crazed, inconsistent Motherfucker?
I can't answer that
what I take offense to,is to start another Pogba witch-hunt based of wetin just about everybody for this earth agreed to be a very horrible and disregard all his performance till this game.
big game-small game all na three points.
also,the spurs game count as a big game right ?

I am not saying you bench him from the start but if he is having a bad game and affecting the team negatively you take him off and bring someone else on. Are you saying NO MATTER how bad Pogba plays he should not be taken off?
When we lose so many points and miss top 4 Mourinho won't have to admit his mistake, it would be glaring to all.
I agree with you that any player should be benched when playing badly but his 100m price tag obviously gives him some sentiments.

One word to describe Pogba: Monumental preek. Asshol3 and cun.t


He still hasn't gotten it into his thick orangutan skull not to force things. He's the flop of the match for me, with sluggish Jones right next to him
Jones and his brain fart. Give ball to your GK but he was busy dancing

Price tag is the answer. If mata started and was playing like this, I can bet anything that he would be subbed before the 30th min and wouldn't come close to the pitch for another 4 or 5 games but pogba is the MOST EXPENSIVE PLAYER in the world, definitely some sentiments would be involved.
Fukc price tag!!!... as a manager if you carry that notion as an ethic,be rest assured you bound to fail...
Managers do sub their record signings if they aren't in the game!

It's for the benefit of the team!!

Seeing Kante was dominated yesterday by dembele and wanyama, you can't help but appreciate pogba and how he held his own physically against these guys in their defeat at old Trafford.

Too many people don see pogba finish sha.

The man has an appreciable amount of almost everything; strength, passing range, creativity, can dribble, shoot, defend, attack, head, etc you just name it. Plus he scores goals and dabs perfectly.
But all some people will have etched in their memory is the few times he overdribbles and loses possession. (even some of our fans who desperately want to hold on to their initial waste of money yarns)

To top it all, he's still only 23! And will get better.

United for pay 120m for this man and I for still no complain grin

You can't use a single goal to gloss over a poor performance. Don't use the Giroud argument I.e play poorly and score a goal.
At the 70 min mark Liverpool had covered 89km and we had covered 79km. They out ran and out hustled us. We needed more work rate and closing down from the team and with 2 strollers in Zlatan and Pogba that was difficult.
Rashford on the pitch with his pace and movement would have dragged their defence back and negated their midfield press to a large extent.
It is worrying that Pogba stayed on that pitch for the whole game despite the crap he played.
I agree the whole team was lazy and didn't work hard enough for a win but removing Zlatan doesn't seem like a good idea.

Zlatan is up there amongst the highest goal scorers and is ALWAYS a threat to Liverpool because he can score, if given the ball. You cant compare Zlatan with Giroud, igimu jina sori.

Rashford is young and a kinda on and off player. He played in the striking role against Hull and didn't impress much. Why would you remove someone that's always a threat with someone who maybe could be a threat?

Please let's move on from Poorgba, it's becoming stale and boring!!.... we all know he was the Flop of today.

Jones was totally stupid there. I blame him for the goal, not Pogba.

Liverpool's goal was totally avoidable but no, Jones had to pull a Jones.

Haba.. Can you cross a ball without trapping ithuh ... I agree that we need Luke Shaw but don't go anywhere near Valencia abeg...
Have you heard of 1st time cross? If you have not then please watch tapes of Beckham or even Gary Neville.
When a ball is rolled or passed over to an overlapping full back it is not compulsory you trap first before crossing. By trapping first always he gives his opponents time to catch up and contest his cross. This is a major reason most of his crosses are blocked

Chai! Well gladly take draw than lose. Our first big test and we effed up.


I didn't watch the match but from what I read here Pogba was shet as expected. We have been playing against small teams that we can afford to not be at our best and Pogba has been getting lots of praises. Iranu

When a club pays premium for a player, he is expected to deliver in games like this...

Yes, players have their off days but heck - if a rookie in the reserve team plays the way Pogba did today, one cannot really blame the manager if he decides to terminate his contract and send him back to school...

I doubt if I have seen a worse performance from a supposed top player - Pogba's contribution today is arguably the worst I have seen from a Utd player in recent times.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 7:25pm On Jan 15, 2017
Jones was the origin of the goal. He turned a nothing ball into a corner kick just from lack of awareness and stupidity.
Pogba just completed the job. There was no composure from the team today and the play was poor throughout, the only person with a pass mark would be de gea.

Which one bad game? Some flashes in games against wee clubs and we should hold party.

If he can't be even average against a midfield of Can, Henderson and Wij then we should ask for our money back.
he conceded a penalty,he got shook,happens to the best of us,it takes a tremendous amount of mental fortitude to comeback from that kain situation Pogba didn't have today that doesn't mean we downplay what has been a good performance till this nite own.

MOU didn't mind a draw from the beginning and Klopp also came for a draw... Our first half was awful but as much as we don't wanna hear this, Liverpool really played well today. They made it so so difficult to even string three passes together

I'll take this draw honestly. Our matches against Liverpool always dey one kain
L'pool was just more hardworking and their attack was poor. This wasn't the usual L'pool. We just gifted a goal out of nothing when we were in control

We had a bad day at the office,but I would still take one point over zero points.

Pogba had a bad game but he will get better.

What do these guys even do in training?? Do they ever work on their finishing?? Since start of sesson we ve been wasting loads of chances.

It would ve been a different game if one of Mkhi or Pogba or both had converted those early chances. Nawa o!!

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 7:40pm On Jan 15, 2017
The penalty aside the dab lord is not learning. He has all the "skills" needed to succeed but he is not adding them together.
He does not know how to play his position. He can dribble, pass and shoot but does not know WHEN and WHERE to do them. His decision making is poor, his positional discipline is poor, his work rate needs to improve.
I am tired of watching quick passing moves die at his feet as he holds on to the ball trying to decide what dribbling trick to use, only to lose the ball in a crucial position or pass the ball 1 or 2 seconds too late.
I am also starting to suspect choke DNA in Mikki

And there-in lies the problem.
If United board were looking at the positives from last season, they would ve renewed LVG's contract. After all, he won the FA Cup.

He he he
Fernandiho is still suspended I think. And he's been the only one protecting that shite defence of theirs.

Pep has some good players in his attacks such as De Bruyne, Aguero and Silva but his central midfield and defence are shite! There's no way a team can manage with that. He needs to find a good replacement for Fernandinho as soon as possible and take Yaya far away from the midfield because he offers nothing when he's not scoring. Yaya should be playing in the attack, not in the midfield.

And a overhaul of their whole defence!

Pep must be really regretting signing useless players in the summer!

If I were him, I would go back to the tactic and selection at the beginning (but with the exception of Stones), that is, a 3-man midfield of Fernandino, Silva and Debryune. However, the problem is Fernandinho is hardly available due to his hot temperament. I don't know why the young Aleix wasn't tried in the role, even Fernando would have done better than Zabelata in the midfield.

Lol. And what is positive in his last performances??
He's supposed to be a key man. A game changer for us. But we should clap for him bcoz he scored last minute goal vs Boro?? When it mattered most against a top team, we all saw how he flopped.....again!

Why not go watch Hazard, Sanchez, Coutinho(key players in their respective teams) and co and see what Positive Performance is all about
na front those three they play

The thing that angers me most is that he cannot even do simple things like simple pass and on time. L'pool were just going pass him like he's a ghost.
I've been to OT for a couple of games this season. If you think his passing is bad, you need to see his positioning on the pitch. That ninja has no idea where to stand in the midfield. Even worse, you should see the way he jogs back nonchalantly. In addition that nigga is so bloody slow, I would not be surprised to see Carrick outsprinting him at times.

That dude is an amateur footballer. He puts the headless in headless chicken. Juve midfielders covered a multitude of his sins. Now we know why SAF said he was not ready.
