He's lead the creative numbers for us every single season until Bruno joined. Most of the time he's played with Matic, who has been past it for 2 years, McT who wouldn't make it any other top half PL club and Fred who until Rangnick has been played completely out of position. We haven't had a single top quality DM for 3/4 years now and we haven't had a single right winger in the time Pogba has been at the club until last season (since Valencia moved to RB actually)

So it's other players fault, the managers fault and the Glazers.....for Pogba's terrible attitude and performances?

A professional player should give everything to perform.....Pogba does not.

It's not a question of talent, it is a question of mindset, heart and soul.

I just hope United see that and stop buying mercenaries just chasing the £

If he was chasing the £ he wouldn't be going to Juve. Our contract offer was reportedly higher than what they're offering him (he also chose them over PSG who will also likely pay more) He's leaving because he wants to win things and we don't. You should be asking why players are leaving our club to compete for titles.
 
I think he is leaving because he now realises most of our fans have seen him for what he really is, lazy and can't be arsed.
No fight, no passion, no commitment, no team player attitude (.....I could go on)

He said two years ago he wanted to leave because he wanted to win things. Earlier this season he said the same thing again that competing for nothing wasn't what he wanted. But sure he's leaving because he's lazy, whatever you need to believe to make yourself feel better. (Also no teamplayer attitude are you kidding? He's been insanely popular in every dressing room he's been in, and lead team talks for France.)

You surely have watched him. Hes selfish and egotistical and puts Pogba before the team. Ronaldo is the same but his ego exhibits in an unbelievable desire to win so its not such an issue. Pogbas exhibits in a lack of effort and application as soon as adversity hits. The team is dominating the opposition and he will play well usually. The team is getting pressured and needs all hands on deck and high intensity and he shrinks.

He seems like a really nice bloke and I get the impression he is a lot of fun. That doesn't mean that his laziness on the pitch isn't an issue.

Have you seen Juve. They are not winning anything soon.

I know hundreds of United fans and can count on one hand those that think Pogba is great and want him to stay....that speaks for itself.

Where did I say I wanted him to stay? I think it's best for him if he leaves and probably best for us to start anew because he's getting injury prone now. If a player walks away from a club on a free transfer fans are nearly always going to play down his abilities. It's the same thing as slagging off a girl that's dumped you, it makes you feel a bit better.
 
I think our fans have been indifferent about Pogba for years now. He's not consistent, not reliable, and generally doesn't play very well.

Glad to see Lingard out the door too. He's another toxic player who has no doubt caused trouble.

The clear out has begun!

Any rumours regarding the future of Jones, Martial, Williams, AWB?

Nothing on Jones, Martial is likely to be up for sale but few takers and no gossip. Williams, nothing. AWB is just rumoured to be on the market and not in ETHs plans.

Early days.
 
Pog essentially needed the midfield building around him and he would have been fine. He is genuinely world class on his day, which doesn't occur all that often. He is better off leaving and so is the team.

I reckon we're stuck with Martial until the end of this contract, who would want to buy him? His attitude stinks.

We'll no doubt waste another £200 million over the coming windows. Rinse and repeat!

To be fair. I’d say it’s been a consistent theme for the last 2 years that people have wanted to see Pogba sold.
Their happiness at him finally leaving is nothing to do with feeling better and downplaying his impact.

The only annoyance was that we kept giving him new contracts and couldn’t get rid earlier.

I never said you did.
Merely pointing out that the vast majority of United fans have a negative view of Pogba and want him gone asap.
Nice guy and probably a lot of fun at a party, but has a very poor and self-important, lazy attitude - he could achieve far more if he applied himself professionally.
