    I know but I meant when he goes straight back into the United team after this.

    Sorry thought you meant first game.

    Yea will be interesting to see what happens. To be honest, i wouldnt be surprised to see Real Madrid try to sign him this summer

    Hope not! They have the Ronaldo money now can see them going for Hazard.

    Lukaku was very poor tonight, had a great tournament overall though, all Utd players who played have a had very good tournaments.

    Hazard could easily be one of the best players on the planet if he wasn't such a greedy ****.

    I'm sure Spain would disagree.

    Bale was a sub a lot last season. Can see him take over from ronaldo.
    Asensio play a lot more, isco there as well. They also have 2 new brazilians coming into the team Rodrygo and Vincius Junior, they cost a combined 80m.
    Dont think will sign any wingers or hazard

    They need a new poster boy, i honestly could see Pogba going there after world cup.

    Rojo was useless

    He scored a peach of a winning goal for his country in an important World Cup game. That elevates him above useless.

    Super goal in fairness but as a defender he was very poor

    Courtois has done some moaning this tournament. Seems totally out of character for him.

    Giving out about the French tactics, calling it anti football etc.

    Ah right. Wasn't trying to be picky, just thought that 'useless' was harsh given his goal kept Argentina in the tournament.

    Anyone see much of Lindelof in the tournament? I wonder if he'll do much for us this season.

    I take it back, I completely forgot about Rojo. De Gea gets a pass for hopefully putting Madrid off him for good.

    Pogba has had two years to bed in at United and he still hasn't made any sort of an argument for being worth a world record transfer fee.
    If Madrid came in with a silly money offer for the player Pogba has been at United (self indulgent, lazy disinterested) we'd be crazy to not take it and get our money back on what has been a bad deal so far.
    He clearly doesn't get on with Mourinho who barring a disastrous season won't be going anywhere, I'd say Jose would be quite happy to get him out of the side, and perhaps more importantly out of the dressing room.

    Kante > Pogba

    Matuidi > Pogba

    Can safely say any of the French fans here I talk to don't see it that way. It isn't one player better than another.

    Most see it as Kante plays a certain way which allows Pogba to flourish.

    Neither is being discussed better than another but rather that they both as a duo have been very good.

    Also Matuidi? Wasn't it discussed before here that Matuidi isn't even as central when Giroud is starting? So not too sure about the Matuidi comparison.

    People used the French formation in their argument about Pogba playing in pretty much a two man midfield with Matuidi on the right with a tendency to cut in when Hernandez pushes on, and now it seems most are referring to it as a 3 man midfield designed for Pogba.

    Despite what people think of Pogba and his contributions to our team there is no denial the critical role he's played for France.

    Following on from Pogba I find it hilarious so many are saying they don't care how he performs for France and that it's about how he performs for us.

    I understand their frustration from our part but let's not pretend that if he was brutal and they crashed out people wouldn't be using his poor performances with France as justifications for their opinion of him.

    Don't judge me! It's the one place in this godforsaken site where Liverpool and United fans discuss in harmony.

    Lol can't believe some lads are serious

    If you watch the game nearly every piece of attack was created by Pogba

    He could of easily had 2 assists only for poor finishing

    I think the over criticism is catching on like a plague

    France are in the world cup final, you would swear he wasn't even playing the way some are going on

    I think that’s unfair. It implies then that people who are crisis for his performances at Utd think he is actually a poor player and are being justified by (theoretical) poor performances for France.

    I don’t think anyone has said that about Pogba and that is the frustration with him and his time at Utd.

    That’s the whole point of the view “I don’t care how he performs for France” or more accurately what I said “I’m not delighted for Pogba..”

    If anything it adds to the frustration of his performances at Utd.

    I want all the players at Utd to play well for the club. Even if I moan about them or don’t rate them or don’t think they are good enough for the team, whatever, I’d be more satisfied to see them do well and prove my points wrong than somehow feel some sort of vindication for my views on them on an anonymous Internet forum and somehow being proven right.
