the wes 7,212 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Pogba under pressure to step up for winless Juve after high-profile exits leave a gaping void ahead of Champions League clash with Manchester CityI said it before the window shut, Juve should have cashed in while they could. You don't get bigger than the CL final alongside Pirlo and Vidal. He will depreciate by next summer and Juve will have wished they sold while his price was inflated by the great players around him.hes over hyped he wouldn't lace zidane boots if zidane was still around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar 441 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Pogba was head and shoulders the best midfield player today in the Juve -City game...(fernandinho has some good longshots and fouls)Terrible offside call on his goal and would definitely be an upgrade to any team in the EPL. He would start on Chelsea over Cesc without any question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oscar 441 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 play with Matic pogba fabregas in a 4-3-3 formation mate 2bh I rather sign kokeKoke rarely ever plays in the pivot and when he does, he is as slow if not slower than Cesc. Atletico usually plays Koke as left midfielder with gabi-tiago in the middle. Koke could work in a 4-3-3, but as I said last year, Koke would essentially be a replacement to Cesc not a Cesc-koke midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing Pogba has to work at imo is his workrate.. If he took just a little bit of Vidal's workrate/stamina, Pogba is set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You nake it seem as though he is not a good player. He may be slow, but his workrate is great. He has Oscar like workrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has Oscar like workrate.Watch the games where koke played in the pivot and he got killed like cesc is this season. 433 would work, but koke in the pivot is not a guaranteeHis workrate is excellent, but oscar is faster and has better stamina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oscar 441 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 If Pogba/verrati was an option, Man City should of use the kdb+sterling money on pogba or verratti instead. With or without sterling/kdb, City was going to win the EPL, but Pogba/Verrati would of helped them in Europe instead of losing to a Juve team in manchester.However, Pogba and Verrati are good enough to fight for their place in the big 3 in Europe, while as kdb and sterling are not.

Why do you think that when clearly they needed an upgrade in the AM positions. Silva was the only real quality before Sterling and KDB arrived. Anyway I think City are more than fine in the CM positions. Toure looks back to his best. Fernandinho is good but not world class then they got good back ups in Delph and Fernando. They did not need to recruit in that department unless Toure left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think City has strengthen properly ... in Sterling/KDB and Silvia they have got pace, verstatility and creativity in the AM positions ... more important in Sterling they have got a good HOME GROWN players which they terribly lack in the squad. With Toure sticking around for a year or 2 they can always go after the likes of Pogba/Verratti after a season ... because there are very few teams around who can match the price they would come for ...

illmatic 901 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Seeing the Inter vs Juventus (and every Juve's matches), only one thing pass for my head. How is possible that this guy has a market price of 80M or even 100, jesus!. Thanks to god who Juve don't accepted our crazy bid for him. Our ridiculous start would have been even worst after such scam.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't watch Serie A so I don't know haha, but there's surely a reason why City, Madrid, Barcelona and Chelsea are interested in him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacquiao 1,834 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 very poor in the 1st half against Inter, but was much better in the 2nd half, he wasnt 100% fit but showed glimpses of what he can do, I would still rather Verratti over Pogba though, but i doubt we will sign either of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon1991 233 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Pogba is one of the most-hyped/overrated players ever IMO.The guy have flashes of brilliance, he can score a 30m volley screamer or do an elastico in the opponent's box but is inconsistent at what matters most. I've seen him miss easy passes and take inconsiderate risk by dribbling in front of his defence and loose the ball.. I don't know, I'm just not convinced at all.Last year, he was good because surrounded by class players as Vidal or Marchisio (which I think is on the contrary underrated), but now that he has to step up and confirm, he's not performing that well.It might just be a dip in his performances atm but I would not be suprised at all if he kept his current level, which is poor.I'm so happy he did not come, because without saying he would have been a flop, i'd rather spend the cash on Koke, or Verratti ( ), though it's seems impossible as I don't see why he'd leave Paris.I think one of those 2 players would really strenghten the squad and bring something new.Just go to Barcelona Paul, please.
