Of course, the video has already been posted in the other thread but I decided to make a separate thread to get this discussion going.

Serious discussion not trolling but honestly are United fans cool with seeing stuff like that ? I mean it's as though as if United have transitioned from a team of dedicated professionals, champion players who put winning above everything to a bunch of self promoting wannabes who keep throwing themselves up on social media trying to get as much attention and followers they can.

Begs me to the question , has the club culture changed at United ? Suddenly it looks like there a bunch of players/coaches putting themselves above the club when all the previous legendary United teams embodied the very essence of team spirit and basically were the complete opposite back then. Imagine Keane still playing right now who would probably slap the lips' of both  Pogba and Lingard's faces. All this marketing might be a necessary evil but at the end of the day, it would mean nothing if you're sporting flashy haircuts and creating emoji's etc only to get embarrassed on the pitch.

Frankly, it's a bit disappointing to see United like this. Not that I'm making a meal out of this tiny issue but this ain't the United I've known ever since I've been watching football. I'm sure many United legends and fans must be feeling the same.

But according to United fans a majority of the 100m was to buy Pogba's "swag"

No

Ferdinand is right. It is not the for that when the club is such a low point. Tbh I'm surprised Mourinho is having this, he used to have zero tolerance for nonsense and instill a big 'fight' mentality in his teams.

Lingard is a jester. Earning 80K a week now when he's Sunderland material. Lingard's also been doing this since before we even signed Pogba. Remember his professor Dab thing or w/e? utter clown

Mourinho is past his prime and shows laxity in his managing duties.

In other news, the sky is blue

Its the same reason why he aint even subbing him off during matches even when he has like a 0/10 performance. Mourinho it seems is scared and has his hands tied regarding Pogba. You see Martial getting basically shat upon for like petty reasons and at the same time you see Pogba getting a free pass as regards to everything he does. Its clearly the corporate/PR overloads of Man United protecting the chap. They consider him a money making machine and not a player sadly.

Only way outta this mess is Paul himself taking that stand now. He has to realize his game is going down the drain and fast. If he doesnt sort this out, he will quickly become the new Balotelli. These marketing biatches, they wont give a damn and will ditch him as soon as they find their next shiny toy. Its ultimately Pogba and only Pogba who is going to suffer.

I see a lot of posters on fraudcafe dismissing the whole episode and saying they can do whatever dey want. New age fans I am assuming.
As a fan, If you are not enraged by seeing something like this especially when you are flopping so fking hard on the pitch, then I dunno, I mean how can you expect these lot to be serious for the cause of the club?

Yeah, I too see Redcafe's newly found dismissive attitude on these things but I do know SAF was not tolerated that nonsense especially if his team was not in winning form/dropped points to f-ing Hull.

Rio is right to slam both those young men in their behaviour. The whole "time and place for everything" rings loudly.
