Man Utd Thread:

[OgraAnDun]

I think Pogba needs a world class CDM alongside him in that two man pivot to protect the back 4 and cover for his defensive frailties and knack of getting caught a few times each game in the high press (which he seems to be immune to further up the pitch). When opponents stifle space for Bruno between their midfield and defence (as PSG did last week) then Pogba's passing range is needed as a second creative outlet for United - you can press Pogba or take up Bruno's space, but not both. I'm surprised he didn't replace Fred at half time against PSG actually to open up space for Bruno.

However, unless he distances himself from his agents comments today then I'd be happy to never see him play or train for United again, and maybe Raiola would learn not to make a mockery of the club when his star asset has been training with the U23s for 18 months at his prime.

He is Erling Haalands agent.

Pogba is small fry compared to what he's going to command very soon.

Don't think Pogba could ever be considered small fry but otherwise good point.

Pogba and Utd fans will struggle to remember any kind of legacy of his time at Utd in a few years if (when) he leaves. Which is a pity for both.

Pity me arse. The only legacy he'll have is what a feckin' waste of space he was! Get rid of the tool ASAP.

Was he actually injured last season or was there something else going on there?

[Farrandeelin]

Twas nice knowing CL football for the season.

Luke Shaw is a dreadful player. His first touch is always  to take any pace off the ball.

[reillycavan]

Pogba is a virus. Should never play for Utd again.  As for tonight both full backs have been poor. No leadership out there.

[Milltown Row2]

PSG game cancelled?

[gerrykeegan]

Re starts at 9

[Cunny Funt]

The whole defence has been a shambles tonight. Wan Bissaka the worst of a bad lot. If it ends in defeat as expected now that result in Istanbul will prove the most damaging.

4th official supposedly referred to the Istanbul assistant coach as 'the black guy'

Is that Paddy's son who scored there now?
