Isn't Zidane a fan of Pogbinho? Not to mention he needs to rejuvenate his ageing midfield with some French studs.

We dont have money

hence give us players


pls

will take the corpse of ser gareth, a CB + 40M

Nah, nobody is falling for this trap lmao

Swap with Ramsey?

Ramsey and Costa for Pogba

Pogba swap with Bale and James

Rugani + 25 millions

Swap with Kessie (c)

Yeah what he's doing on the pitch is not acceptable. Acts like a glamorous super star but can't get the simplest basics right. Takes too many touches, ridiculously misplaced passes, wrong decisions. He's ruined his career with the move to United and with the ensuing 120m player status he has in that team that does not correspond with his lack of maturity and tactical discipline, not even a top 25 midfielder these days.

Bale and James for Pogba sounds just about right. I'll gladly approve that transfer

Vidal, Juve/Bayern/Barca legend + Busqusts, Barca legend + Roberto, another Barca legend, for Pogba. What a deal for MAn U, 3 for 1 swap, youth and experience

Pogba's tested positive for Covid.

I don’t know if I am the only one with this take (doubt it) but it feels to me like Pogba has been putting on too much muscle over the past couple years, specially since he went to the premier league. That added mass is now working against him as he gets older, obviously he is stronger but he is also less agile given his size and his reaction speed is not matching with the speed of his body.

I have noticed this is something a lot of tall players suffer from in the late 20s. I think something similar happened to Yaya Toure in the later part of his career where as an athlete he was nothing like what he was at Barca. Jack Martinez also comes to mind, Boateng, Zlatan, Llorente (his career just ended). Now I am watching Kane with the same trajectory.

These guys are amazing athletes but their height advantage also gives them more work when it comes to maintaining their physical condition when they are in their late 20s.

Nothing to do with muscles, he just sucks.
