Pogba is the best Cm in the league, surely no one else thinks otherwise.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think otherwise tbf, and just a few weeks ago when you lost to Madrid your board was flooded with articles about how shiiite he is.
Clearly a very talented player, but yet to dominate a game for more then a 10-20 mins stretch imo
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is something he needs to address, he can't really do that at the moment. Not a classy tick over type either like kroos or modric, he cannot control games. But what he does offer is sone great creativity.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He's a game changer, simple as. Can struggle all game but has the raw abillity to create something out of nothing.
Reminds me of how Dele can be for us.

"He was great against West Ham and great for the last 20 mins against Swansea . Very average the 70 mins before that though."
Whilst most will agree, that's because Fellaini came on at the end of those games and Pogba was practically at No10.
Give him space and that's what he will do to you.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thrives on space, give him some and he'll do damage. No coincidence good teams don't give him space, and subsequently he's poor against them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In some games us, in other no.
Last season against Arsenal, Spurs and Chelsea he was good. Truth is, he's just arrived at the club and can only get better.

I agree. Top players should not be expected to make immediate impacts and should not be expected to do it in big games. Also Inconsistency is key.

Probably a fair comparison. I've said I want to see Pogba further up the pitch, seems we will shoehorn all of Mata, Mkhi and Pogba into the side though.
Our right wing is a huge weakness.
Good article Robb
We've had our differences (when did you unfilter me? ) but this place has been quiet without you.

I've very much enjoyed the first two games. We need to beat Leicester this weekend so we can continue the good feeling into the international break.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
He would walk into the Chelsea side
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He walks most of the time to be fair. But no he wouldn't.
In fairness to Liverpool, Mane is a superb player. I begged LVG to sign him in Jan 2016. Had he done so he might still be in a job.

Best ball playing CM outside of Real Madrid.
_______________
Veratti & Thiago think you are an idiot, as do I.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
iniesta even now, dembele is probably better, kante wastes the ball less too although not known for his ball playing ability.
And if attacking players can be conidered(pogba is usually very high up the pitch) then silva, KDB, mata, coutinho, hazard, willian are all better ball playing midfielders.
Eriksen and dele alli too
Robb is back and with a good article.
A little bit hyperbolic in places, but the general points are sound. And let's be honest: we need more optimistic bravado around here than we need more whining, whingeing doom-mongering and criticism.

Begged or just mentioned that you thought he'd be a decent signing? Think carefully now Robb....

corruption in football! who would have thought!?
To be honest I didn't like Fellaini much but at times even I wanted him to comeon as our attack was so bad without him
