the wes 7,212 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 The question is simple: what is better for us right now? one elite player or several players of lower quality?Not saying the likes of griezmann are bad or anything but it is obvious what one elite player of the likes of Suarez, Bale, Hazard etc. can bring to the team.We have enough simple, good, hard working players to compliment the squad (Willian, Matic, Oscar, Ramires, Mikel, Cuadrado).The one thing that has been missing for us this season has been the domination against the bigger teams in the bigger matches and I feel we need another super quality in the team to fix that.koke could fix that problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 19,252 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Our name isn't really even being mentioned anymore as one of the clubs in contact with Juve/Pogba.Mentally, I'm already resigned to the fact that we won't bother being dragged into a summer-long bidding war that'll possibly end in huge disappointment.

We aren't even into the summer yet, let them throw their best punches and we swoop in when the moment is right... Its not now.you guys are losing faith based on the rumour mill which is designed to sell papers and drive up the price. First of all, none of these teams could speak to Pogba or his agent, that's called tampering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no doubt about that. Also, I agree that we need one elite player more than just several good players. But I still doubt whether Pogba is that elite player because he has been a passenger whenever I have watched him play, especially in the World Cup where I thought he was very average. Also I think you are doing a disservice to Oscar and Willian there. They are more than just good, hard working players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Pogba doesn't defend for Juve because he isn't asked to defend. Similar to how in some matches Jose let's Hazard just attack, which doesn't mean he can't defend when asked. Pogba is so highly rated because he has the ability to be any type of midfielder.If Jose asks him to defend and teaches him the tactics and the fundamentals, he'll be perfectly fine. I'd be worried if he lacked the ability, which I don't think he does. Just because you don't see it every match he plays, doesn't mean he can't do it.

Pizy 19,252 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 The next Gaalactico? Wouldn't surprise me at all if they throw some ludicrous truck load of money at them for Pogba. It's the one ultimate muppet signing that will make the media and sponsors jizz themselves uncontrollably for the entire season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supporter 3,088 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Maybe what I'm going to say may seem like an crazy exaggeration, but for me personally Ruben Loftus-Cheek inspires me an assurance for our future even higher than Paul Pogba.A signing as Koke is perfectly compatible with respect the natural progression of Ruben Loftus-Cheek in our first team.However, a signing as Pogba would mean the beginning of the end of Ruben Loftus-Cheek in our team and he would have to be on loan in several teams before being sold for 5 million pounds.I would also love a player like Pogba. I think nobody has doubts About this. But we need a creativity midfield to recover the style of play that we did at the beginning of season very similar with the style of Barcelona or Spain.I think we have to think coolly our signings. I believe that since long time ago does not appear a young player like Ruben Loftus-Cheek able to become a world star in a short time if he has a chance (I hope his first big chance can be today in our starting eleven).In addition, we have had problems in the creation of game from behind. Koke for that role is clearly better than Pogba (as playmaker).And with time Ruben Loftus-Cheek could become better than Pogba if we bet strongly in him. Obviously this seems a crazy comparison, but seeing RLC in our Academy I think that RLC he has conditions to be one of the best box to box in the world without a doubt.We have the best Academy in England and Europe and we have to give a chance to our young guys.Regards to ALL.
