Pogba didn't get in Garth Crook's Team of the Week 2017/18

I'm getting pissed off with it now, we have a good squad for a 4-3-3 which we can all see would get the best out of Pogba.

Having Matic behind Pogba and maybe Herrera alongside. Sanchez, Martial/Rashford, and Lukaku upfront would be a great attacking trio.

Also, we have a left-footed left back with good pace, technical ability, and still a fair bit of potential. So why is Ashley Young still playing there, it's £#%&!ing ridiculous.

Being played in a 2 rather than a 3 is no excuse for not being arsed and generally mincing around the pitch like a useless turd. He barely resembled a footballer today.

He was shocking today, nobody disputes that, but was he fully fit?

Or has he and Marital downed tools until their agents get them the same deal as Sanchez?

Green and gold anyone ?

Indeed.

Just made the point to a mate defending him - Fergie played Roy Keane almost up front at one stage and he still made a £#%&!ing good go of it!!

Yep.

I know it’s a cliche but he could play anywhere. And I’m not asking that of Pogba. But £#%&!ing hell, at least make it look like you’re trying, otherwise he’s just giving Mourinho an excuse to £#%&! him about.

If he’s injured, if, and Mourinho is making him play through it against his wishes and he just isn’t comfortable then I can sort of understand, that’s a lot of supposition though. If he’s just being shit or sulking then we may have a problem, that lack of effort today was appalling.

He gave a thumbs up to the bench to say he wasn’t injured apparently

Anybody with eyes could see he was injured.

Mourinho confirmed he wasn’t injured, didn’t he?

Dunno if it’s been posted but this thread has it right imho

Despise the Scouse @#%&! but you’d struggle to find many games where he went missing to the degree Pogba does?

Well sure, but given just how much we were crying out for an orthodox central midfielder or five, and indeed still are... why the blue blazes sign the @#%&! in the first place?

The signing got us a lot of twitter likes and interactions tbf

“What I don't understand is why they don't chant Chris Hughton's name during their games more. I really don't get it. If fans don't chant the manager's name every now and then, how do you think he feels?”

Pogba wants to play midfield without actually doing anything that a midfielder has to do.

Roy Keane: "When we lost it ruined my mood for days. Current players are too busy filming themselves dancing in the dressing rooms to care about losing."

Can’t remember whether it was the Everton or Leicester home game when some genius like Jamesie Redknapp voted Poggers motm. Unaware of this I pointed out post match, if he contributed more for the team’s benefit and cut out the pirouettes etc.... of course, copped “typical Denis” smilies and “motm” smirks. Watched the second half again next day whilst the lad had it on and he never touched the ball from, at least, the 67th min. until the 88th when he got caught in possession and in injury time when he floated one into the crowd. Love the lad on his day but somebody needs to give him a shake. Not the only one tbf.

If he went tomorrow he’d be a flop.

Needs to seriously get his arse into gear.
