Transfer: Winter Transfer Thread

He’s the last thing you guys need. Mentality wise at least.

The more the merrier.

Spending a ton of money for the privilege of complaining about Pogba not being a prime Mesut, would be one of the most Arsenal things they could do.

I mean talent and position wise he’s exactly what they need. Consistency and mentality wise he’d compound the problems there that’s for sure.

We need quality in midfield more than anything, but yeah. A midfield of him, Partey and Özil has everything and is elite in every aspect. Under Arteta Pogba would not do well though of course.

Pogba won't do well until he proves he be a high end talent consistently, doesn't matter the coach.

Oh man that midfield would get eaten alive especially with Pogba and Ozil in their current situation/form.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Garbage player (poor attitude), Ferguson knew this when he was an academy player.

 

[Chimaera]

I know Partey does a lot of work, but he can’t do the work for two passengers in the midfield. Pogba can do a job, but whether he wants to is and has always been the issue.

 

[cgf]

Pogba should demand a loan to Union for the rest of the season so that Kruse can teach him how to balance the craziest of partying with undeniable superstardom

I think March is the player I have done the biggest 360 on in my football viewing life. He is really is a solid player nowadays.

You mean 180

LOL i do mean 180....also wrong thread.

 

[Havre]

360 on March after all?

Possibly but it could also have the potential to be maybe the best in the world if everything goes right. Arsenal would at least motivate Pogba more than United since he supports them.

Ozil is washed up. Pogba has no motivation at the team that gave him the chance as a youth player. Partey can’t do everything himself.

Yeah if Pogba can't get motivated for the club that gave him his chance at being an elite footballer I'm not sure what will. I mean the only place he performs consistently is in the NT, but that spread out a bunch and he can get away with being a complementary player there.

Maybe Arsenal could get top 12

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Arsenal need a new coach; Arteta isn't ready. He has zero backbone = no respect from his players; many of which have become passengers.

 

[AB13]

If Özil and Partey are motivated they are still top 5 midfielders in the world. Özil was world class the last season he got regular playing time and passes through the middle ( before two stupid coaches decided to misuse him), argubly better than KDB in 2017/2018. When Pogba is motivated, everyone knows how extremely good he can be.

Partey is no where near a top 5 midfielder. Ozil had 1 goal and 1 assist last season so no he wasn’t anywhere near KDB. Yes stats aren’t everything but when there’s that big of a difference they matter especially as a 10. As one of Pogba’s biggest supporters, Arsenal does not have anywhere close to the team to get the best out of him. Pogba is a complimentary player at this point and he would be relied on way too much and would soon lose whatever hypothetical motivation he gained playing for a team that hasn’t finished higher in the standings than United any of the years since Pogba has come back (don’t think).

Key word in regards to Özil being " passes through the middle". In 2017/18, the last season he got regular playing time in a functional system and passes through the middle his assist, xA, key pass and chance creation numbers put him among the very elite in the world. Pogba is never a complimentary player for France, he is a leader and star on the team, as he has been everywhere but at United.

Arsenal finished above United twice since Pogba came back, United finished above Arsenal twice. So you are very wrong on that.

My bad about the last part. Didnt actually look at it. Still you can say Luke Shaw had a better season than KDB if you pick one stat and that’s it. Also you’re wrong about Pogba being a leader for France.

Pogba is a leader in the room, but I'm not sure he's the leader on the field. He's insulated so much there.

 

[cujo1117]

Just before the Leipzig clash and the Manchester derby. Really hope Manu gets rid of Raiola and Pogba. At this point I will be happy with a 60-65m offer

 

[Jussi]

Can’t wait to be rid of these two. Sell him to China. Or Saudi Arabia. Get a huge check and not have to compete ever. Put a shift in for the French NT a few times a year and just cruise the rest.

Rather contradictory with Pogba's post-game interview: Pogba exclusive: I'm a team player

How are you feeling after 90 minutes? You’ve had injuries, you’ve had illness, how do you feel after that?
“So good. Obviously it feels good to play. The lads have been playing really well as well. I had an injury, a long-term injury, I came back, it was strange for me. I wasn’t ready physically I would say. I felt weakness physically. You know, just to play the 90 minutes and carrying on with the games… It’s such a difference. I’m finding my rhythm as well. I feel so much better today, I felt I could go again, control the game, getting the ball. That’s what I like, myself. That’s what I think is good for the team. I’m a team player. As long as the team wins, that’s the most important, you know. I find myself good and we want to win. That’s why I came here and that’s why I want to be successful.”
