Buddy you had no clue how Pogba played to give this opinion. You told us in the summer he was a lazy forward player who didnt track back and mostly played safe, sideways passing in the final third to argue away Pogba's high attacking stats last year.
Pogba won the golden boy didn't he?
Because Glaston.
Ali often plays the sideways pass when he drops deeper, to someone like Erikson so he can run into the box. He anticipates well in the box to crosses and deflections and his focus in part of that. He definitely has better concentration than Pogba.
not in a million years. Driving from deep and one on one in tight areas Pogba is far superior to Ali.Due to SAFs insistance and his well publicised contract troubles he wasn't playing in the PL. That does not in any way affect his potential as a football player.
No need to be like that.
Oh yeah, votes by swathes of English club captains... Awards including the Golden Boy are political.
He just turned 20! Not his fault his birthday falls on March.
The PL is played at a much higher tempo than Serie A so the stats are clearly going to be differrent.... Stop trying to twist info to suit your point.
When have I ever used stats to rate a player as better than another? It's a terrible way of judging a player, especially when you're comparing two completely differrent leagues, Serie A being known for its bus parking and slow pace. Even judging to players in the same league in the same position (which Pogba and Ali are not) is pointless because every team has its own system. The proffessional footballing world outside of North London knows that Pogba is a better midfielder than Ali, it's blindingly obvious to those that watch them both and understand football. It's quite clear that you have your set way of thinking so there's no point in arguing anymore.
In fairness some of the opposing opinions are equally as cringeworthy.
That's a bit of a stretch claiming he gets away with murder when you just blatantly broke forum rules openly calling him a "cnut".
It can if more people echo it.
What! Mata IS better than Dembele.
So basically when we compare all the stats, we should look at more seasons but when we compare only goals, this season is all we need to look at. It is amazing how you get away with being an absolute WUM on thia forum.
I don't believe Alli will do a better job than Herrera currently in that role. Nothing to support it. In fact his games where he is not deployed the furthest forward in midfield, he has been underwhelming.
