Barca should have bought him free... he wanted to go there for less money too. What happened?

Re: Paul Pogba, the biggest fraud of our time?
Matuidi has been crap Nick. He gets caught up the pitch all the time. If you look at the defensive stats for the Euro, Pogba's were actually better
He covered more ground, won more duels, allowed fewer players passed him and recovered more balls. In fact, Deschamps tried Matuidi on the right for a game at the Euro (Pogba's best game as he was on the left)... he was so awful that he had to put him back on the left!
Reason that people criticize Pogba is that they expect him to do all that and make assists/score goals. In fact, he could be utter crap at his CM role yet make assist/score goals and people would say he was fantastic.
I don't rate CM's like that.
In any case, Kante is going to be the water carrier for France or Deschamps is an idiot. That should at least free up Pogba to move up the pitch at least.

Neymar's raise happened and then funds only sufficed for one André Gomes

Pogba prob played his last game for #mufc. RR: "It is very unlikely that he will play until the end of the season again. The doctor told me that it will take 4 weeks minimum for him to recover & since last game is at end of May I don't think it's very likely he will play again."

As opposed to you, I always rated him. He's one of the best players in the world, no doubt.

Surely, you don't need a tailored masterstroke of a plan to make a simple pass, right?
I don't rate Mourinho at all. He's a toxic, childish has-been who does more harm than good wherever he goes, and I'm pretty sure his negative, soul-sucking football is partly to blame for Pogba's amateurish display. But there are things, really simply things that Pogba, as a professional football player, should be able to do with insane ease and yet he's failing at them miserably.
He's an overrated player who can only thrive in a very specific system, but he's not a world beater. Never was and I'm guessing probably never will.

Yes, that's why I put the Mourinho laughing picture as a spoilter. I thought it was obvious I was being ironic?
It's pretty well-documented how much I don't rate him

Re: Paul Pogba, the biggest fraud of our time?
His downfall coincides with a poor career choice. While a return to Man Utd was understandable, staying there for years under such dysfunctional management ruined him. With France he does not seem to have lost his football and i believe he can turn it around at club level.

Re: Paul Pogba, the biggest fraud of our time?
There was a chance for him to come to Madrid and his numpty ass declined us in favor of a return to manutd. From that point on I questioned his judgement and decision making. Years later it seems he is in fact overrated. Sorry sports, I genuinely believe Pogba did us a favor in his declination. He should have yes when he had the chance before he was exposed a fraud. His stock has fallen so low that I don't even fear him going to barca.
I hear some reports every now and then that Now he wants Madrid. That ship has long sailed and is never returning to port.
