Stroud Life: Pogba bid

[Ted Hughes]

lads just back after a three month lay off.

Fair dos then. Guess it'll take him time.

Is this his usual position he's playing tonight??

It's a position I keep seeing him playing but all I ever hear is he's replacing Yaya. When I've seen him, he'd be replacing Nasri.

That's what surprised me with where he was playing. He was in a Nasri/Silva role. Not an improvement on either of them. Presume he plays centre mid for France??

Not especially when I've seen him.

So whys he worth so much ??

[Blue Noodle]

For the 70 million that's being quoted for him I reckon you could get Veratti & Vidal. Plus maybe 2 of the Yugoslavians or Samir/yaya going the other way to Juve & PSG. That would excite me far more than Pogba and Barkley.

It's all about potential imo. Right now he isn't worth even half what he will cost. It's what people think he will do, in the future, which they would be paying for, rather than what he does right now, which is good, but not usually extra special imo.

doesn't look like he's a goal scorer (max he's scored is 8 at Juve) or playmaker like Pirlo or Iniesta or Silva. his strength appears to be his power and ability to cover lots of ground pretty quickly (due to his legs), as well as his age. he does well with the ball at his feet and is asked to defend on the flank a lot when Juve play a back 4.

i don't know who he'd be like in our squad (a better Fernandinho?) but i don't watch him that often so i don't really know.
