Pogba is utter crap. 120m? More like a normal 22m midfielder to me
Pogba isn't crap; he's a good player, with a good spread of skills. What elevates his status is the goals. When they're not there, you see the rest of his game for what it is; it lacks substance. A good incisive pass every 20 minutes isn't enough; he doesn't help his team wrestle control in between. He lacks purpose and aggression in everything he does.
Goals bamboozle people though in their analysis. They had a debate before the Spain game last night about who's the best centreback in the world right now. Lineker said he'd take Ramos because "he'll get you goals". I'm not saying Ramos isn't a great player, but, come on--that's not why he's a great centreback ffs! It's the same with Pogba--he's a central midfielder. There are 10 things he has to be good at before goal scoring comes into it. He could play exactly the same in the second half as he did in the first and if he puts one in the top corner, he'll be great again.
