    latest one. He is a great talent and needs to be out on loan soon for regular football.

    Thats my first clip, thought I had left it out when I seen yours!
    He is some player, I hope he can challenge Gibson for a few games this season.

    He should be ahead of Cleverly as he has more to his game. He is 18 now so surly he will get games. Welbeck, Rafa got games at 18 and Rafa also played many high profile games when he was 18. So Pogba should at least get some games in the Carling cup etc. Morrison has great potential but seems to be throwing it away with his petulant behavior off the field. Shame really but Pogba has a lot of promise. Would love him to be thrown straight into the 1st team like Rafa was.

    He almost went on the US tour:

    "It's always been a part of the club to bring young players through from the youth team. I was going to bring Paul Pogba along to be honest with you but it would then mean huge numbers, you know, I think when we all meet up, finally, in New York, and Hernandez joins us there, and we have 29 players or something like that, it's a lot on tour, but some way we will have to cope." Sir Alex.

    He looks a great prospect, also looks massively tall and strong with good feet. How tall is he exactly? You don't stop growing till you're 21 either so he'll probably get a bit bigger too.

    The Lad is for sure one for the future and I mean first team football, I rate him that highly. He only score blockbuster goals. Just think how good he could be for us in the coming years.

    Personally I think Cleverly is a one trick pony, Gibson well I would rather not say anything as he ant United class - full stop.

    Pogba needs to be selected in the first team square and soon.

    He may very well be the long term solution. But if Sir Alex hasn't brought him on the US tour, then that probably means he isn't yet ready.

    No, we don't have to do anything. There is no need, there will be ample opportunities to give the likes of Pogba, Morrison, Tunniclife or Keane just to name a few to slowly give them first team squad exposure and loan time if they need it.

    Bebe looked good in games at that standard and he is ****e. Pogba is a good youngster, but he is nowhere near the first team

    i dont think cleverly will make it. he's 22 this year, only a year younger than ando, and if he had that much about him, he wouldn't have been sent to wigan last year.

    fergie said he was sent out because we had obertan and bebe so cleverly needed games. he's not even a wide-man, so i dunno what that was about. i wasn't that impressed with him at wigan, and if we're relying on the likes of him to get us upto scratch with barca - then i fear.

    The key thing is that Fergie needs to put his money where his mouth is. On the one hand, he says we don't need to sign a midfielder as we have the young talent coming through. yet, when push came to shove, he didn't include Pogba in the 29 man tour squad. What does that say for his hopes of featuring this year?

    If I've said it once, I've said it a 1000 times. Our midfield was really substandard last year. So if Fergie thinks that that midfield minus Scholes, Hargreaves and potentially Gibson is suddenly going to step up to the plate this year, I despair. He HAS to give guys like Pogba (who I think could easily establish himself in our first team) a chance. Otherwise, it is just asking for trouble.

    He's under the age of 21 so he can't be named in the 25. he's automatically exempt until the age of 21. However, I can't see him featuring in the first team next year. So, with that being the case, has Fergie purchased a magic wand that will suddenly see our midfield not get over-run against every team that plays at a high tempo? Huge risk.

    Pogba is nowhere near ready for United's 1st Team from what I saw at The FA Youth Cup Final, he is talented and may make it in time, but right now the Centre Midfield at OT is suspect, to add a young'un to that would be very hard on the kid.

    Ravel Morrison on the other hand could slot right in, and if he ever sorts his attitude out, you have a World Class Player in the making imo

    I hope we give him some game time in the Fa cup and Carling cup.

    I watched both legs of the Youth Cup Final and I think Pogba is ready. He wasn't spectacular but he was disciplined, he won possession and kept it. Morrison was fantastic going forward but over the course of those 2 legs, he lost the ball in his own final third on no fewer than 4 or 5 occasions by taking on an opponent in a situation where it just wasn't feasible. If he did that in the PL, we'd be conceding as a result.

    What made you so sure that Pogba isn't ready? It's not like our CM were giving masterclasses last season. I see no reason why a guy with his ability and maturity shouldn't be given the chance to play. He looks far more ready for PL football than Morrison imo. And if Pogba isn't ready, then, simply, we need a new signing. Otherwise, we are looking at another season of our midfield retreating to the edge of their own box on our travels whilst the likes of Wolves and West Brom push forward.

    That as much as anything.

    Disagree about his discipline, Roy-Keane-Nealry-Made-It bailed him out on a number of occasions.
