Presuming that United sign Pogba, how would the midfield options of the current PL teams compare?
We're just looking at actual midfielders here, 10s & CMs - so not wingers like Sanchez, De Bruyne & Hazard.
The rankings:
1) Arsenal
Özil, Ramsey, Xhaka
(Cazorla, Wilshere, Coquelin)
2) United
Pogba, Rooney, Schweinsteiger
(Herrera, Schneiderlin, Fellaini, Carrick)
3) Chelsea
Oscar, Fabregas, Kante
(Matic, Mikel)
4) City
Silva, Gundogen, Toure
(Fernando, Fernandinho)
5) Spurs
Eriksen, Alli, Dier
(Dembele, Wanyama, Mason)

assuming jose plays 4231 unless he sells rooney it will be reasonable to assume rooney will be #10.
meaning utd will play
--------morgan/carrick---------pogba-------
--------------------------rooney----------------
assuming utd get pogba
and that for me is still the poorest of the top 6 clubs.
some will say but it has pogba, but pogba does not play as a holding cm. He always played in a midfield 3 with little defensive responsibility. I've only ever seen him play in a midfield 2 at the euros and he was terrible.

Gotta love the Spurs fans on here. They get very abusive when they have even the slightest bit of criticism their way.
You guys really think you'll finish ahead of us this season
What you people may not realise is that I've stood up for you a lot on here over the past few seasons. Darren can testify to that.
But it's not arrogant at all to state that we are favourites to finish ahead of you this season. Does that warrant some pretty nasty things you guys have said about me on this thread? Don't think so guys.
But keep it coming. Shows just how immature some of you are

This idiot Robb getting slaughtered on a daily basis, most Utd fans are alright on here (with the exception of spazzy Hafi and that numpty Cleverson), but this guy is a complete embarrassment to them, their very own Arro or Got Better.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
they hate him on their own board as well, he's become a real arrogant twaat recently, posting articles about how United are a team to fear this year and how they are nailed on for the title, calling everyone else jealous and scared.
I'm sorry but I will never be scared of a team that has Rooney in it
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He gives it the Bertie Big Bollox about Utds wealth and how they should spend hundreds of millions, crass idiot. Am I right in thinking he's a southerner with no affiliation to Manchester and that he supports about 6 other teams? Embarrassing fan.

Articles like this always bring about internal conflict.
On the one hand I like an article that focuses on football, and has the potential to inspire good intellectual debate.
But on the other hand, its just so poorly written, by such a spacker of an OP who clearly doesnt have a clue about football that it is an absolute eyesore.
Swings and roundabouts.

On a side note:
Do Liverpool have even a single good midfielder?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Must try harder.
