Has Pogba played his last game for us?
I cant see him fitting onto Ralfs hard working system, and thats even if he hasnt committed to another club from 1st Jan.
Probably best all round if we let him go in Jan.

I’ve read on a couple of occasions now that Ralf will angrily drop players if they make too many sideways/backwards passes.
Love it.

All sounds a bit LVG?

I don't think you've ever actually watched us. LVG paid bonuses for sideways and backwards passes.

That actually could not be further from the truth.

I'm assuming it was sarcasm. If not, feck me.

Isn't gegenpressing about pressing and winning the ball back quickly after losing possession, rather than a blanket press all over the pitch?
I read somewhere that Rangnick's teams, even when doing this, have often been happy to sit deep without the ball.
I see Pogba let his man go after he loses possession often far too often.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Rangnick also likes his players to pass the ball forwards and to do it quickly. Pogba likes 5 or 6 touches every time he gets the ball. He's a pressing team's dream. The only problem is the pressing team whose dream it is is the opposition.

Mctominay side ways pass will struggle imho
Pogba is far more capable to pass the ball forwards because he can pass forwards. Mct is so limited in his passing ability I think he will struggle. Pogba With proper coaching could do well
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think that it is time to draw a line under Pogba. I can't see him signing a new deal, nor do I think that he is worth the wage he will want. Get rid and lets get a top DM in there and see if VDB can command a starting spot. It will be interesting to see if Garner gets a chance next season.

Pogba's after £500k a week to sign the contract if the papers are to be believed.
£500k a week. I can see it making sense for a PSG, where they can balance it against the lack of a transfer fee, but it looks like an expensive indulgence for us unless Ralf and the next manager can make him a consistent game changer.

We look so devoid of creativity and presence when Pogba doesn't play.

If pogba does leave this season he has to go down as one of the most disappointing record signings, so much talent, so hit and miss. Real shame.

Absolutely.
Pogba is the the most productive and destructive player currently at the club. They function better with him than without, particularly when playing in a more advanced role/position.
So, sadly, with the way things currently are at the club, the OP may well be right, it's likely he'll be sacked - and to compound the idiocy they'll give lingard a ten year contract as captain.
