I don't think asking to be given a chance ahead of some of the garbage we had playing in his central midfield position at the time was "demanding a first team place".
Thinking you could do a better job than the likes of Fletcher, Cleverly and Rafael is logic not arrogance
Still think there's a hell of a lot of hindsight in play when looking back on Pogba. At the end of the day, Fergie is the best manger of all time, he made mistakes like anyone but he's also the best judge of talent I've ever seen and I don't think for one minute that he didn't realise pogbas potential. Clearly he felt Pogba was too impatient for first team action and that he wasn't ready (claims that have been backed up by Scholes). The fact that Pogba had an imediate impact at Juve makes Fergies call look wrong but I honestly don't think he would have any regrets with how he handled it and I'm with him fully. Pogbas agent was a lot of the problem as Fergie said at the time and he was laying down a marker that he doesn't take crap from anyone, especially a youth player(no matter how talented).

No body is even saying Fergie was wrong (its a matter of opinion). They are saying that your claim that Pogba requested a guaranteed first team spot is completely false.
 
I have a sneaky feeling this will be wrapped up by the end of this week.
 
Spot the odd ones Out:

Iniesta, Scholes, Kroos, Fletcher, Pogba, Modric, Carrick, Pirlo.

Are you referring to Fletcher not playing the champions league final? If so, he was wrongly booked in the semi-final and it couldn't have been rescinded because it was only a yellow card (stupid rule). Also same thing happened to Keane
 
Now who the feck thinks Pogba is gonna leave for Madrid.

I dare you to feckin show yourself.
 
The fact he didn't play at all? The fact we played Park and Rafael at CM ahead of him?
Not that he wasn't a guaranteed starter. He wasn't even a guaranteed starter at Juve in the first season.
He wanted to play football, Fergie promised him game time and then never gave it to him (Fergie was well within his rights to do that) but obviously the player is also within his rights to leave for playing time if he doesn't trust the manager.

But why did SAF not play him then? Probably to not give in to his demands I would assume.
 
Well, are you woken up yet or is it still on?

No we were in a title race, and Fergie didn't want to take the risk. Fergie said plenty of times in interviews he was going to give Pogba a chance and more playing time. But in the run in for the title, he just didn't seem to want to risk it.
 
Skysports, on their PSG v Real live updates, headline in United and Pogba not a done dealio and Real are interested. They then point to Zidanes video which is basically nothing.

Christ they've fallen.

It's virtually impossible for them to keep up with Twitter.
 
I don't get how Sky are so bad when they can just bloody contact Sky Italia and get the information there. Why do they always have to wait a whole day to send the infeomation out.
 
Still can't believe this is actually happening. I have refused to go full muppet, but now it's clear as day. I am going to dream of sweet, sweet dabs tonight.
