Captain Obvious

Martial left Wembley on crutches. Extended spell out injured?

Sure there were a load of United fans that couldnt wait to show Evra the door GJL.

Pogba was some loss even in terms of his value alone now never mind his ability.

Pogba was the best player on the pitch the other night by a long way when he came on.

His passing was unreal.

Never had a feeling of sickness over any footballer before except for Pogba the past 3 years.  Still can't get over whiskeynose not getting over his stubbornness and giving Pogba want he wanted, which in reality was very little.  It was clear then that he was on his way to being a world beater and in essence United just let a player go who in all likelihood will be the best player in the world in 2 or 3 years.  I saw only 5 minutes last night in the second half but there was a passage where he hit a pass over the defence for Martial to run onto, it was sublime.  10 seconds later he fainted at the edge of the box and hit a shot that nestled on the top of the net, but the dip and power he had on the ball was unreal.

That made me laugh. What a player!!

Anyone who would like to point to last night's game as an indication of Pogba's brilliance should also, by law, be bound to recognise Rooney's brilliance as a player an a finisher (based on last night).

Martial, Rooney and Fellaini all out for the weekend! :o

In fairness he was far from outstanding in the reserves/u21's that season according to those who watched far more of him than I did.

It wasn't over his wages, he wanted first team football but more importantly his agent was allegedly looking for money and got a huge sum from Juve for pushing the deal through.

It was a massive mistake from the club to let him go though but the purse strings have certainly been loosened since Fergie left.

Hopefully he starts Wilson ahead of Depay up front tomorrow.

At least United will be playing with 11 men for once.

The Wilson situation baffles me to be honest, he has bags of pace and scores goals for fun, why does LVG not giv him a run of games to see if he can hack it at the top level, or what passes for it these days, I think this is the weakest I have ever seen the premier League.

Can Liverpool do Utd a favour now and take points off City?
