    That doesn't mean I've forgiven him for selling RVP to Utd. That was a big mistake.

    Doubt it. Barca on RM might be though.

    Funny how Utd fans (not you personally) thought 34mil for Mane was a total rip off about 2 months before they spent 89mil on Poggers <laugh>

    I take it you watched the Super Cup last night? I did, quite enjoyed it for a friendly tbh.

    But Pogba, ****ing hell he was ****e. He's got no care in the world for his team mates, it's hilarious!

    Fellaini came on and for me he was your best player last night.

    I don't think Mane was over priced for what you received, I just didn't want us to sign him when we were linked with him. That still stands, I think he compliments your style a lot more than he fits the United blueprint.

    As for Pogba, he was let down by Lingard who was by far the worst player on the pitch. We had players doing the job of two such as Smalling who was doing Lindelof's work and also Pogba who was asked to clean up Lingard's mess, against most teams we'd probably get by, but against them lot, it's always going to look worse.

    The thing with Pogba is, he won't dwell on that and let it ruin our season like some weaker midfielders would, he'll get back on it and be raring to go for the weekend. If we signed players who spat their dummy out when the going got rough, then we'd never win a league title.

    His team mates should ask him to pass, maybe that'll help him.

    I did the same to my 8 year old now he's far better prepared going into this season imo. He should do quite well.

    Well I'm sure that's on his list of things to work at, he was only 4th in the list of PL passers last season so I'm sure he'll want to improve.

    Probably first on not spotting a key pass?

    1st on ballooning it over from 40 yards out too?

    Who was above him on the stat you've got? Most likely defensive midfielders.

    So by 'pass' you meant 'assist' then?

    He made 5 fewer key passes in the league last season than your beloved Coutinho and just 3 fewer assists, despite playing half of the season in a DM role.

    Coutinho missed a massive chunk of the season. You also missed goals out for some reason?

    Poggers is ****e Tel, most other fans agree. I think he has potential to be great, problem is he's such an egotistical idiot, I'm unsure he'll ever reach his potential.

    Still 89mil for potential <rofl>

    You're engaged in a conversation mate but you're not backing your **** up. I missed out goals because you were talking about passing, then you started talking about assists, now you've moved the goal posts again.

    Why don't we just measure trophies? You're clearly a much better side than us so let's count... 0-3 unlucky.

    Matth's obsessed with Matic and Conte. The Man Utd board looks like a cum bucket of Matic.

    As jose would say, Matth is a voyeur of chelsea.

    I don't blame him though, he has to keep an eye out for what the champions are doing

    Matths now a professional football reporter so yes, he has to keep on top of everything. He's doing well so far tbf...

    although he was pissed right off I broke the VVD transfer request before him. He even called me Skyw(a)nker because of it.

    Pogba is the latest 'saviour' of United, before that it was Martial, and before him it was Januzi. All flops
