Both 28, both in the last year of their contracts.
Would anyone take a straight swap?
Pogba for Varane?

And as a poker player I am waiting for you to ask for links so I can go all in

I am quite happy to see Pogba sat on the bench when there are less talented but more devoted players on the pitch running their socks off. He could be a great player if he could remove his head from the other end of his torso.
Sell him to a 2nd Division club for £50, if any of them would want to risk that much for him.

Oh wow doc, I know you have some out-there views, but come on.

He's literally our best player, on all fronts

But after watching the Sancho video, hello, we could have a telepathic forward line

We need a CB more
Pogba is not what we need or ever needed, go get someone like Camavinga!

Every team needs world class players
Genuine ones though.
I’d love to hear arguments against him not being one, on medals alone. I know that is not a barometer to success, but it’s definitely a baro, at least.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Has he been world class for us in 5 years? He's not even been close for me. He should have been because he's got the ability.
Last 2 seasons alone:
2019/20: 1 goal in 22apps
2020/21: 6 goals in almost 50apps
If that's world class then then the game is gone.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I must ask, stats aside, when you watch Pogba, do you see a player doing world class things?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pretty good stats for a defensive midfielder.

If Varene were a 28 year old Rio, Chiellini, VVD etc then yes, I’d probably do it.
But players like Pogba are too few and far between to swim him for a good, but no great CB.

My thoughts exactly.

Rumours abound that Pogba and Varane were involved in a dressing room fracas immediately after France were eliminated by Switzerland.
If true then the last thing we want is more toxicity within Utd's own dressing room.
Mr P does love himself too much, he can perform self love somewhere else!

Not even close.

Chellini is still a class act at this advanced age. What’ a player.

That's a good idea.
Sack the best, most creative, most contributive player the club has whilst simultaneously employing another ridiculous shoot thru.
Pretty certain, though, that the current board will already have considered this. And somewhat surprised it hasn't actually already happened ....
