    Suarez cost £22m you fruit loop, the fee wasn't newsworthy.

    By the way, he scored 11 league goals in his first full season. Epic.

    What people were talking about was his ban for racially abusing an opponent.

    Great comparison choice astro <laugh>

    Suarez cost £65m years ago, one of the most expensive footballers ever, except he's never called that, he's just called one of the best footballers ever

    Nobody even remembers how much he was sold for

    But Pogba's £89m will never be forgotten

    You've just quoted how much he was sold for so you remember.

    Was it a world record fee at the time?

    Nobody remembers how much Ronaldo was sold for? It was a world record fee that obliterated the previous record set by Kaka.

    You special boy.

    Average! Spent more time in the hairdressers than making a mark on the pitch.

    So his performances have set the world alight then....right oh.
    Not sure what Jordan Henderson has to do with Pogba being very ordinary has to do with the price of peas, I don't support pool so I don't care?

    He plays in midfield and is average.

    Just offering you a simple benchmark.

    I made no reference to who you support and am not that bothered but if you would like to tell me I can reference one of your own average centre mid's instead, that's not a problem.

    Pogba did well in a friendly and matth has to prod the issue.

    Does anyone even care? He was overpriced, everyone knows that. He'll still be a quality player with a proper partner in midfield.

    But matth has to stir the pot.

    It is possible that in, terms of Euros, Bale was more expensive than Pogba

    How can you say that, he is young enough that we may get 10 or 12 years out of him. If he adapts to the PL the way he did to Serie a then the money will have been very well spent

    I'm not stirring anything, I'm just saying that, Had Paul Pogba not played well on Tuesday night, I'd never hear the end of it.

    That's a huge 'if' for £89m or whatever it was. I'm sure he'll improve next season- that's a given unless he loses a leg. There's still this weird need to magnify it every time he does something right to kid people he's been good so far.
