But he hasn't ! So he's not... He's just a massively overrated show pony that looks decent in a great side. Lacks the mental fortitude and discipline to be considered a great player. Should be the driving force in making United better but he's not..... Massive waste of money and will be gone in a year when he ends up looking like a superstar at Madrid or Juve coz he's surrounded by great players

Bit predictable, but to clarify I was talking about Wijnaldum. He's a very decent player but he's not World Class.

You have to give credit to Wij. Klopp has tried to get him out of the team but he keeps finding ways in getting on the team sheet. I still think he needs to add more goals for us. He's had a good week with the Dutch and taken chances which for us he fluffs.

Wij has taken his time trying to learn a new role and i think its Klopps fault hes often too timid when playing for us, seems to offer more going forward for the Dutch team. Hes more of a win the ball work horse keep it simple for us, but we've seen what he can do when given that freedom, same with Hendo really look at him making runs in his new role for the past year.

Pogba's career before utd:

4 seria A titles
2 Italian cups

surrounded by other players like vidal, Marchiso, Pereyra etc etc

Pogba career at Utd:
League cup (quite easy draws)
Europe league (easiest draws ever)
And nothing since.

For france he wins 2018 world cup when the team is clearly strongest in comp and had little rivals TBH.

In short pogba is EXACTLY what diamond lights said he is a show pony. Give him loads of space and time and he'll pick an assist out. don't ask him to work hard or to work under pressure form a good opponent.



Wijnaldum on the other hand is a lad who just needs to believe in himself. He need to play angry. He's too nice.

When wijnaldum really drives himself he can be top top class but he vanishes far too easily at times. Not off the ball mind. His work rate is excellent but on the ball he can really just play within himself.

I have no idea who Wijnaldum is to be honest.

Why are you trying to compare an Astra with a Ferrari. Pogba isn't fit to lace Wiji's boots

Can he take penalty like Pogba thou?

Pogba is the only 90mln quid footballer who requires hundreds of millions of pounds worth of talent around him to be remotely effective. His commercial use to United is far more beneficial than anything he does on the pitch

Yeah we made the £90m back in shirt sales immediately, so was technically free. Best free transfer of all time?

Agreed OP.

Wij is better than Pogba. First time I said that they all laughed but they ain't laughing now.

posted on 10/9/19

The best part about this article is, it's clear he's better than Pogba so no United fan will even put up a defence for him.

Yeah most I've spoken to what him out!

posted on 10/9/19

I'm one of the biggest United fans I know and I don't want him out. The more shirt sales the better imho

posted on 10/9/19

If you've got to buy another 3 players cos the 90mil player who paid for himself is shirts is so poor then its a false economy.


Utd lists

AWB: probably going to be a hit
James: jury is out. little diver
Maguire: not found out yet

Dalot: miss (already replaced)
fred: miss (disaster)
grant: yeah.. exactly...

lindeloff: mixed.
lukaku: disaster
Matic: already past it. miss.
sanchez: unmitigated disaster

Bailly: miss. injuries
Zlatan: miss. ego
Mkhitaryan: miss
pogba: miss.

Depay: miss
Darmian: miss
schneiderlin: miss
Schweinsteger: miss
Romero: meh. miss.
Martial: mixed. So far a miss on fee alone
poole: who? lol

herrera: miss, only looked good when others were so bad around him.
Shaw: miss for that fee. too many injuries. injured again now and gaining a pound an hour as we speak!
rojo: miss
Di maria: miss
blind: miss as mourinho made him a miss.
valdez: lol

Felliani: miss. come on utd. wtf

when you look at this list and then understand it represents 825million pounds of spending (gross)......

...... well, quite how anyone is still in a job at utd I do not know.

It is frankly abysmal. yes its gross spend but its taken utd from sort of title challengers to nowhere men over the period.
