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.
You forgot a team he is heavily linked to return to. There was a million ways he could of showing support.
He did what would infuriate a lot of United fans intentionally. He knew what he was doing or wouldn't have written it.
You're looking for a hidden message that isn't there. He's showing his support same with Lindelof wearing a Sampdoria jersey.
You okay mate?
The difference why he's been criticized while Lindelöf is not. It would have been easy for him to avoid all that. Not surprised you are not getting it.What?
Yeah, what's embarrassing is the fact that you wrote such a long post do defend him over my perfectly short and fair comment. I don't even care what he is wearing, or that it is Paul Pogba we are talking about, it was just a comment that I would comment any other opposition player if they did that. It's the kind of things you expect from the likes of Neymar, Pogba, etc. There is a reason they are so popular, they do this stuff on purpose. But go on...
Lindelof is off to Sampdoria? 
Why isn’t Pogba donating his wages to scientists trying to find a COVID19 cure?
Why isn’t Pogba dabbing his way to eco-friendly self-renewable energy sources?
Why isn’t Pogba butt naked in the Arctic protesting global warming?
Yes I did read what he wrote. I expressed my opinion here without yelling or screaming, unlike you, so if you are looking for obsession - maybe check a mirror first. Pogba fetish much? He can wear whatever he wants and I can then think whatever I want about his actions. Free country.
Totally agree. Not a big deal and he's free to do what he wants, but we are also free to think it was not as innocent as "oh, I am just showing my support".
I like more Brunos in my club. Whoever likes more Pogba types in theirs are making different choices. That's all
It would be weird if Lindelof wore a club jersey and he wears a NT one. If it was Madrid then I'd sort of understand, but he actually played for juve and was popular there, nothing wrong at all.
That's the first thing I was thinking. I mean I'm sure he probably has another area or something in his mansion but that room felt claustrophobic and underwhelming for someone of his wealth..
FFS POGBA OUT. Can't even flaunt his wealth properly so how are we supposed to hate him?!
Well done, your handling things brilliantly.
You can do whatever you like, the same posters slating Pogba for the most trivial of things week in week out... Just seems like a particularly pertinent time with what is going on to point out how petty and child like people’s opinions on Pogba are.
It’s ok though, I don’t expect those same people to understand the values in that observation. I’m sure the colour of Pogba’s underwear is the next national concern.
More importantly, why is he wearing that knee brace?
Yeah okay. It's you who is obsessed with him. I can point it out anyway I want. Free country
Massive massive attention seeker.
Means nothing other than the fact that he wants some headlines.

At least you learned something: saying "free country". Your usage of it still needs some work, but - all in due time.The absolute state of some of you... feckin ell.
It’s not a big deal, but this is the reaction he wanted. Huge attention seeker. Just simply wear a Matuidi France top if you MUST show support.
Or you know ... send Matuidi a private message to show him support and leave it as that. Why advertise to the whole world.
The Pogba hate is beyond strong. I get it but feck me. Cant wait till he plays for us again and the fickle go back into their cave.
But that would make too much sense, and would not stir any controversy online
How is Pogba Brigade then gonna come out, up in arms – accusing everybody who sees through this thinly-veiled attention-grabbing – of Pogba hatred?I used to become massively hyped about Pogba, since Bruno signed I can't be bothered one way or another.
At points in the past I have been pro Pogba, at other times anti. Now I am just nothing.
He's a wonderfully talented player, I'd never deny that. It's just he's no longer so central to United that I mind what he's doing.
So he wears a Juve shirt? Honestly, who cares? Maybe it means he wants to go to Juve, maybe it doesn't? Again, who cares? He's barely played for us this season and Bruno has got us going without him. So whether he stays or leaves it's whatever.

Sampdoria is a weird choice. If you're gonna go Serie A it's gotta be Lazio or Fiorentina. Much nicer shirts. I also kinda like S.P.A.L's kit.
I think he wants gullible fans to think he's making his way back from an actual injury

I thought Neil Ashton was brought in to help improve our PR, it was an ideal opportunity for Lindelof and Pogba to show to the outside world the lads are all in it together(erm United you could say) with no cliques whatsoever, I mean why the hell were they not both wearing Jesse Lingard gear for starters?
All part of Minola's strategy to lower the transfer price. And makes Woodward's job easier by making it more palatable for United fans.
Wow some of you really have lost the plot.
Jaysus lads. Some of the reactions on here and Pogba's the immature one?
It's really not a big deal.
There's some amount of mental gymnastics going on to make it out Lindelof and Pogba are doing different things. Lindelof can do what he wants because no one in their right minds wants to buy him?
Some of you really do have too much time on your hands at the moment.

All of us debating one man's choice of clothes contributes to the numbers of clicks -> market value -> size of the "circus". The strange thing to me is the amount of negativity directed at our own players (and managers). I am not a Pogba fanboy. On the contrary, I think we could do somewhat better if we got a little less of the negative atmosphere about our team.
Do we need criticism? Yes. Do we need in-depth analysis of players social life? Not so much. Are we allowed to be relentlessly negative about our own players on a fan forum? I guess so. Does it contribute to the overall aim of further strengthening our team? I don't think so.
At least we have something to discuss while there is no football played. Thank you, Paul Pogba (and those who get riled up by him).

I could care less about the Juventus shirt but for the first time since buying the show pony, United have the upper hand in the negotiations because United have learned to have a very good midfield without him. They should do everything to start a bidding war between Real, Barcelona, Juventus and PSG to extract the best return for him this summer. Don't even make the mistake of offering him a new deal with inflated wages only to line the pockets of his lard ass agent.
It is also the shirt of a club he once played for. More importantly, it is the shirt of the club Matuidi plays for. Of course, there are other ways he could have shown his support for Matuidi and Juventus in general. But amongst the many wears, wearing their/his shirt is amongst the most obvious.
You, or anyone else, requesting he went through the process of picking the shirt up, then putting it down and searching for a France shirt, for example, shows the highest possible immaturity on your part and none at all on Pogba’s. Even in a time like this, you cannot distill it beyond ‘he’s been linked to Juve’ - then it shows a level of comprehension that does not reach beyond primary school.
No it isn’t. And I don’t care that you would comment it for others. Step back and think for a second. It’s very childish. We’re in the middle of a crisis and even in a situation where a friend who plays for Juve has been diagnosed with Corona, the first thing that comes to mind is ‘why a Juve shirt?’, and you’re not even embarrassed to say that.
He forgot which body part he is supposed to have injured.
But joking aside, i wondered that too.
He is wearing Ekdal's shirt, his friend from the Swedish national team. He has the virus along with most of the Sampdoria squad.
It's an absolute disgrace that Pogba has [insert crime e.g. murder] when he knows [insert emotionally unstable demographic] will [insert wild overreaction], particularly when [insert unrelated event]. I've had enough of this clown.
