Ignore the blah, blah, blah - the Paul Pogba thread

Nice!

Good observation obviously since Ole our focus has been more on his play and stats.

 

We need to give him bump up and long contract...

No offense but people who relate hairstyle to how someone plays are simply scapegoating. It's a quick fire response from critics after a poor game (he's focusing more on his hair than his game).

If you leave double P alone you'll see many other players are dying their hair or getting tattoos, changing appearances (Messi, Aguero, Griezmann, Ramsey are all blondes now for example). I'm an Arsenal fan but I've long been disgusted by such claims about him focusing on his hair more than the game. Probably Ole just told him "I know its bullshit but still, it doesn't help your cause " to which PP agreed to. For now. Just my $0.02

 

It's been discussed here to death, but the general consensus here is that its typical media bullshit. And I very much doubt Ole said anything to him about his hair.

Regarding the comment from Cantona, I just think he grew up and played in a different culture absent of social media and the constant need to change and be interesting for followers. He's trying to rationalize it because he doesn't understand it.

 

That may well be true, but nobody says shit to the other guys who mess with their hair.

 

What positive to say about Mister Paul, he makes . . . it . . . happen

 

That shit about Pog’s hair is racist, IMO.

 

So much for that Mourinho. Up yours...

 

Pogba used to run circles around Scholes in training - Jones

Not really surprising, even if Scholes was coming towards the end of his career, if we're being honest. Everything happens for a reason though and in hindsight, leaving was probably the best thing for him: we probably would not have been able to enjoy him in his prime, as we will now had he stayed. But he did show his quality at senior level (especially in that 2nd half cameo vs Stoke) and his immediate success with Juve only confirmed what most knew about him.

 

Ohh Haa Paul Pogba :/ ...
We need to sign him long term...Just wishing its a tactic on his part to get bump up contract at united.

Is Paul Pogba on his way to Real Madrid? 👋 pic.twitter.com/SJhPVoXAjD

It's a concern, nothing more to be honest at this point. And it may well be a tactic for a new contract, which we need to get done sooner rather than later btw, after we've tied down a couple of key guys first.
But the way I see it also, those comments should serve as an incentive to Woodward and the board to build a team that will genuinely compete at the highest level, to at least reduce the temptation to go to Real (even if it does not eliminate it completely). I don't like Real, but Real are Real when it's all said and done. And Pogba like any competitor wants to win.

 

This is the 2nd time he has opened his mouth like this.

I don't give a ******** if someone asked you a question, cut the bullshit.

 

It's probably a matter of time but it can't be this summer unless he tries to force a move and Madrid are willing to part with 175 to 200 mil.

 

Paul Pogba *really* doesn't like Jose Mourinho, does he?

Look at his face 😂 pic.twitter.com/y1m31opt6a

For everyone else in the world.

 

His performance today was as poor as the Sevilla games, the Newcastle game he got subbed and a few other performances where he seemed like he couldnt be bothered to play with heart or urgency.

Aftet flirting with Madrid, this is a really bad look.

 

We have to except that this is going to be a thing all summer long. And it's only going to get worse.

 

Comments like that only make things worse. Real's typical destabilization campaign has officially started, I guess...

 

ZZ and that entire club can go ******** themselves. You want Pogba, give us 200 mil. Otherwise ******** right off.

 

250 mil and still ******** off.
