He’s had Pogba and Mata available at the same time. And Pogba and Lingard. And Lingard and Mata. And Bruno and Mata. And Bruno and Lingard.
Etc.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And look how well Mata and Fernandes have linked up
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, very well with Mata in off the right wing and Bruno in behind Ighalo.
They haven’t played together in midfield though, have they? Bruno hasn’t played in midfield since his debut.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He is a midfielder. Plays in various roles within the midfield

I think it’s most likely we’ll play a 4231 regularly with Pogba deeper and Bruno as the number 10, but will see a lot of different set ups throughout the season depending upon fitness, form and opposition.

You can call him what you want. He’s isn’t playing in midfield.

He might not be here next season anyway (if and when that is). But it looks like we could be signing Jude Bellingham for Brexit FC and he looks like a young Paul Pogba from youtube.

On balance (and overwhelmingly speculation, of course!), I was of the opinion that:
- Ole probably wanted Pogba to stay if he wanted to stay
- Pogba wanted to move on
- And as such, Pogba would probably be gone in the summer.
Which I really wouldn’t be bothered about with Ole in charge, because he wouldn’t ever get close to the best out of Pogba.
All bets are off now though.

I wouldn’t say all bets are off just yet. My biggest concern is that we will be stuck with that useless caaaant Sanchez.

Bruno finally surrounded by the quality he’s always dreamed of.
