Oh yes and he could tell the world it was all because of him.

Let him, what does it matter?
Because we take the piss out of Pogba for acting the way Mendy does. Can't blast one person then suck Mendy's huge pipe.

Why is it that me not having an issue with it equates to me sucking his pipe? For me the jury is still out on him, he still has to prove himself, hopefully he'll do just that when he returns but I'm not going to base my opinion on him as a player on what happens off the pitch.

He cant defend though ! But when he gets forward we don't have to defend that much . Think we are a better balanced team when he plays though .

Agree
Heard much the same from other clubs fans. They are scared stiff when he's playing

The question for any player who is up for selection is, is he a better fit for the team taking into consideration the opposition, the venue, the actual match, upcoming matches and so on, than someone else who can play in that position?
Mendy is the better fit over both Delph and Zinchenko

It wasn't that long ago his head was being called for by some.

He was dreadful that night but I also remember v the scousers at Anfield he was pretty good and showed good discipline. If Pep likes him he'll do for me.

Really solid statistics with him playing for us, so just imagine how good we could had been with him fit. No one managed to beat us when he played and we only allowed 7 goals in.
The question is who is to blame? His injury record was almost clean at OM and Monaco. It's the training regime he has? Was he rushed in? The fitness coach works wrong with him? His lifestyle? As soon as we solve this, we will be so much better, however, I think if he will have another injury this season, he will be sold and we will remain with that "what if" syndrome.
