Pogba is like he has always been for us. Hit and miss with no real in between. He was really gash just a few days ago.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Funnily enough his stats from Juve days very similar to now. Maybe the team is also the problem. If he leaves so be it, but he has had a hard time from us/ press

Agreed. Technically he is head and shoulders above any of our other midfielders. I include Bruno in this, who I thought was holding us back today. He done nothing but lose the ball
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s not as if he was involved in us going 1-2 up now is it?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
we may as well say pur keeper was involved too. That goal was all Greenwood and Cavani
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Without Bruno’s touch, there isn’t a goal to talk about

Pogba's strengths are attack, lack of defensive responsibilities although he can and does track back and defend when called upon, he prefers when unshackled such responsibilities. On the left he seems to excel, playing in tandem with Shaw. He was simply immense today especially second half.

When he was absent through injury the team struggled for goals, we missed his creativity and presence.

Very unclear where his future lies but since his agent spoke out about Pogba's supposed unhappiness at Utd he's been outstanding.

Pogba has been very good all season. Not a few games at all. He’s been very solid when not injured.

He’s easily miles better than mcfred and even better than Bruno. So he needs to stay because if we lose him we automatically regress.

As has ole as manager for the most part, but hey I don’t like him so I will moan. Ain’t that right Uww?

his assist for the 3rd goal was great

I am not going to debate this point any further after this. He was poor today. He is actually poor a lot of games but comes up with a goal or assists, which covers the bad performance (s)

I think a lot of people got ahead of themselves with Bruno. He certainly has an eye for goal. But his all round attacking game is certainly lacking at times, and gets exposed against the better teams.

As you say, another poor game today.

Even when he has poor games he often has a moment ofagic that helps to decide the outcome.

Earned a bit of his fee today.

Still some way to go to get him into the black.

Hate to say it, but did Bruno mean that? It looked like he received the ball a bit sooner than he expected, turned to see the Spurs player on top of him and could only prod it through his legs. Not sure he meant it as a pass to Greenwood. Great play if he did and very subtle; the replay I've been watching is quite far from the action so it's hard to say.
