If you United were battering Everton in the second half, I think you've got your colours the wrong way round.
Replied: 5th Dec 2016 at 18:14
about the same price are the following, bale and pogba,but if them two where in the school yard, every team captain would pick bale first.
i'm not sure whether he's settled in at utd and the premier league ,but for his money he's disappointing,perhaps alex was right in the first place.
if I had 100 million to spend on players and exhorbitant wages ,pogba would not be in my first eleven,or for that matter on the horizon.

You said Latics and United were alike, then said Latics were battering the opposition, implying United did the same?

If he plays for United 10 years (highly doubtful) he costs 9m pounds a year plus wages. At that rate he should have one good season behind him. Should be no bedding in time. If you went and bought a Rolls Royce and the rep said you would have to run it in for a year you would tell him where to shove his Roller. Just my opinion.

Any explanation why Lukaku and Matic fit in seamlessly without a season " bedding in" ???

Yea both been playing Premier League football many seasons before joining United so bang up to speed, next!
Replied: 19th Aug 2017 at 19:19
I refer to my previous comments regarding a Rolls Royce. Should purr and glide as soon as it leaves the showroom. I don't exactly think Pogba was playing in the Wigan Amateur league prior to his arrival at United. Hope he goes well this season. Two goals don't make a summer.
Replied: 19th Aug 2017 at 20:26
I will then refer to my previous comments about humans not being machines, as for "fitting in seamlessly" it's only early days and the same could be said about Lukaku and Matic but I get your point and hope you are right so we can have a ABU bitter free zone if nothing else.
Replied: 19th Aug 2017 at 22:17
so what do you think now ? .
Replied: 20th Aug 2017 at 14:02
POGBA, Now he is being given a bit more freedom with MATIC backing him in midfield he will start to show his capabilities which at times are breathtaking .
Replied: 20th Aug 2017 at 15:17
he got the same service l/year from carrick.
Replied: 21st Aug 2017 at 00:37
I suspect Matic will play more games than Carrick though.
Replied: 21st Aug 2017 at 04:28
exactly . he,s 8 years younger doing the same job.
Replied: 21st Aug 2017 at 12:06
Matic a lot more mobile than Carrick and quite willing to take the ball forward and players on if there's space in front of him.

Did you ever play Shatty or did you compete from the armchair like you support your team?
Replied: 21st Aug 2017 at 15:14
Terrific start from the most talked about team in G B .
My concern would be a lack of natural width in attack .
Sir A of F generally had wide players ,gigsy, beckham,sharpe,kanchelsis et al.
Other views welcome from people who know what they are talking about .
That clearly does not include xxstuartxx and laughing man.
Replied: 21st Aug 2017 at 19:16
Spot on grim about the width that's why we're linked with Ivan Perisic but Jose having seen Martial playing wide and cutting in to score may stick with what he's got!
Spot on with your last sentence also!

Vindicates my comment.
Jose was a tad more adventurous today playing pogba in a more forward position .
Liked the numbers in the box when we got width.
Cruised in second half .Thought Valencia had a v good game .

That's where he needs to be, further forward creating chances,
as already stated on here, worth every penny.
Replied: 1st Jan 2018 at 19:35
When we play with freedom we are much better rather than bothering about what the opposition do .
Much more fluid today but again hardly a quality ball from the right which given we played lindelof right hand in defence and no natural WIDE player crosser wasnt surprising...
Still think we lack a class midfielder who can unlock defences despite the quality of matic .

Every team has injuries but united have had more than their share this season, key players, pogba missing about 9 games that's half of their campaign. Also Bailly, and Valencia two outstanding players, any team would miss those three.

Its his mentality broady.
He quotes his record when questioned about this ,Look at how he rubbishes scholes this morning in the press.
I am not his biggest fan but to boo the team and him off the pitch on saturday was disgraceful .
I was present with pals of mine but felt embarrased .
When things are going bad thats the time you support your team..

Replied: 2nd Jan 2018 at 23:23
Bassman. I agree most of the 2nd team are internationals but that does not mean they are top players. You only have to look at England's record in finals to see that. The point I was trying to make was bringing in quality. United payed a lot of money for pogba and when he is missing it shows. Have united wasted money on some signings, you could be right.

LG. Have united lost in those four games, always two sides of the coin. Wonder what record it is if united have lost any league game while pogba has played this season.give? You something to do, when you check it out you won't want to put it on here.
Replied: 3rd Jan 2018 at 10:33
bryanp121, I am not doubting that yoonited have had a lot of injuries and I am quite happy to concede that it could be more than most but, out of interest, I went on tinterweb to see if there were any up to date records of each club's total injuries this season to date.
Unfortunately, although there were sites giving current injuries I could not find one to list the whole season.
Does anyone have any links?
This is just curiosity not a point scoring exercise.

0years. When Silva is out for city they don't look as good as when he plays. I think he is their best player and has been past few years.some teams can carry injuries but if key players are out it tends to show.its just I see pogba, Bailly, and Valencia as top players and can see it affects how united play, only my opinion mind,
Replied: 3rd Jan 2018 at 11:13
Bryanp121, I don't disagree with that and utd have no doubt dropped points because of it.
However, with regards to City, the footballing nation were insisting that we had a dodgy defence even before our previously best defender and captain(Kompany), our new best central defender (Stones), and our new record buy left back (Mendy) were injured.
We had to put Delph in place of Mendy, Delph had never played that position before and was seen as a player to be shipped out and Mangala in place of Kompany/Stones. Mangala had been derided by all, including City fans as a waste of time and money with City trying to flog him off for a couple of years.
Strangely enough though we have the best defensive record in the League this season. As Bassman says, there should be strength in depth. That is good management.
All teams suffer through injuries. I was just interested in which teams had suffered most and the effects it had on their current league position.
