In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Seriously I don't know what people watching . Pogba needs to carry a different role and an important one as the heart of midfield. He is the midfield general since Deschamps changed to double pivot and moved Griezmann into the #9&1/2 role. Pogba'w tactical sense is perfect. People either love possession bossing or flashy all action burst through the middle run player than running the team by his well positioning.
See someone mentioned Ballack. Yes, one underrated player at his time in PL. He didn't look explosive like Lampard, but almost every good managers rated him highly back then. He was not flashy, but arguably his influence was greater than Lampard in certain game as he added steel, discipline to the team. He is good contribution to attack also.

Pogba's coming home
You made a typo.
Three times.
Again shows that 100m would be crazy to spend on him.
It's not my money, if Pogba's available we buy him. Big statement to world football...
Of course, Pogba needs a Khedira to shine, so we need the same setup. It's a known fact, he's not a DM, he's an offensive player.
Typo? I was singing
A game and a half and looked poor as shit. Totally unlike the player we have seen this season. Just like Pogba has been totally unlike he is at Juve.
There are ofcourse more examples of other great players that have played a very poor tournement.
Muller, Ibrahimovic, Lewandowski, De Bruyne, Carrasco,
Are they all shite you think ?
It just proofs these international games are worth shite to judge player quality. Especially if you are focussing on only a few games.
£100m should get you a Messi/Ronaldo bracket player in my eyes but maybe I'm just living in the past.
It's not his performance that's an issue, it's his attitude. Cocky and lethargic. He was the same in the UCL final too.
In that case you need to have a word with whoever was typing as they were really fecking up the words.Typo? I was singing
Has he touched the ball yet?
On the bench.
I seem to remember Martial coming on as a sub and changing the game (but that may have been before the tournament. Still a bit strange for Deschamps to black list him. Either way Pogba has been ok in this tournament but not his normal self at all
Is he the black Wayne Rooney?
He's touched the ball more than any other player so far
Disciplined display...
Have to agree with this.
I have to disagree, I think he is showing great discipline by staying deep down and not taking any risks. Obviously, he would want to go further up the pitch.
No that's Pelé.
Social media is raving about Sissoko... meanwhile Jose and Woody are throwing a wolf of wall street style celebration
Pogba seems to be playing a very limited defensive role in this final. Great to see that he can also play as a disciplined defensive midfielder. Although i do think he is wasted there.
I am actually aware of that, I checked the stats before I posted that, but he is just invisible, not influencing the game at all.
Jeez,
Kroos: "Meh i'd prefer Modric"
Kane: "Meh id prefer Lukaku"
Pogba: "Meh, he's shit"
We don't deserve big signings.

You can see how frustrated he's getting by the lack of movement up top.
He's far too deep.
He's being made to play as a defensive midfielder
He's completely wasted playing a deeper role. He's most dangerous when he's driving forward.
I know, he isn't one. But he was hardly impressive in other positions in this tournament anyway.
He'll love rashford !!
I used to think he was overrated. Now, it looks like we are buying him, he is obvioulsy not overrated.
Pogba doesn't deserve a £100m price tag tbf.
Loads of good players have performed worse for their national teams so not a big deal
Lots of players have under-performed in this tournament.
Who cares how much he costs, he's better than what we have so he'll improve us. That's the important thing.
And after the last World Cup and the Copa America just gone would you pay 100m for Messi on those performances alone?

Pogba playing in a deeper role and Martial not getting a look in.. What have France got against United?
You are. A player of Messi and Ronaldo's talents would cost upwards of 200.
It depends on what influence the coach wants from him. Clearly Deschamps wants him to solidify the midfield are and play safe (you know Deschamps type). If he just dropped his position to go hunting, then there is a problem. Show that he has the right mentality tactically and he's only 23 years old. Some of the great midfielders were one dimensional or wasteful around this age (even Scholes, Pirlo...) This is not Fellaini role where getting involved defensively, laying up the ball for someone else and just try to get into the opponent half.
If anything, Pogba shows he has more influence in deep holding role and box to box role in this tournament than the Lampard role in games where Kante played the deep lying role. Good to see he can contribute even in these roles than simply Lampard role like with Juventus.
Mourinho tactic & formation is not dead static in game. While there are key specialists in team, these players would need to show they can be the influential and help bringing the tactic adaptability within game while still providing high level performance. It's rare ability. Pogba has shown just that.
You clearly are.

Strikers get a bit static when they don't have any faith in the midfielders seeing and executing the right pass. Pogba has to take some responsibility for that too. Lots of the ball and little impact.
I doubt that people wouldn't want to sign Pogba. Just pointing out the he's massively overpriced
