Called Pogba a fraud first here. I always found him skilled on the ball but massive i mean massive lack of footballing fundamentals was visible from the early days itself.

He was looking like a free style footballer with good athetism at that point. If he had a good coach in his earlier days who could have corrected his game he would have been an unreal player now.

Arjen Robben was the best player of the last 10 decades other than Messi & Ronaldo.

The last 10 decades would be 100 years. That is indeed an unpopular opinion.

Well... thank you for posting a truly unpopular opinion, don't think anyone else will agree with you on that one. You're going to have to expand on that one a bit.

Wait what? When? I could a sworn I was first to say Pogba was meh as a midfielder switch sparked sports hatred for benzema, you love dribblers and skilled players I doubt you saw through peak Pogba hype, sorry adit not buying it.

Well that's not something to proud of, you are both wrong.

Would love to hear about the lack of fundamentals for this meh midfielder during the years he played under Conte. Its not like Conte pretty much exclusively fielded players that are able to execute the fundamentals over those that were incomplete.

This is just rewriting history and projecting the current Pogba onto the old one.

Nah check my track record, I say whatever I see happening on the pitch, could be peak Pogba or isco or cr don't care, if the approach play is wrong I will say it don't need anyone to agree with me.

Yes I'm talking about Pogba under conte at his peak, I said what I said and I think maybe jibers was the other poster who said similar things at the time.

Edit: it's not hating if you think a popular player is meh,and just like your not knowledgeable cause you pile on a unpopular player, the answers always come in time.

System player, couldn't hack it in an open system, reason he left all mighty La Liga. In a closed system he was a GOAT though.

bullshit why would you say so?

I think there's some good talent out there, there always is... some make it by being coached very well and staying disciplined to the sport, and some don't. Always has been the case, always will be.

If anything if football becomes boring it might be because of some rule change coming from associations/FIFA, or maybe the new rules to the oncoming UEFA club tournament competitions.

That's a no from me. Baggio > everyone (at least everyone that came since).

A related, extremely, unpopular opinion among Juventus fans.
