Paying £100m for a few flashes
If he was under a manager who knew how to get the best out of him I may feel more confident.
We are 4 (Four) games in... Anyone panicking, point scoring etc about things right now must be wet under behind the ears.
50+ games to go yet... Loads of time for various players to click.

He was pretty good today. Can't think of anybody better in a red shirt
Not sure we even have the players at the moment to get the best out of Pogba anyway.
The only logical player who will click with Pogba centrally is old man Carrick.
I want to watch MOTD tonight and see if they say anything because in my opinion, Pogba's positional play was awful this afternoon. Jose's teams always show central players outside and wingers inside. Pogba completely vacated the centre of the pitch and let De Bruyne, Silva, Fernandinho etc run through the middle. Naive really.
Pogba was like the rest in the first half. Crap. Second half and further forward once ander came on showed what he can do.
I dont care what anyone says. Hes off the pace but hes shown what weve lacked in midfield so much.
Im optomistic.
He was poor but so too were most of our players. It's just 4 games in, no need to panic yet even if the result was bad.
The main mistake seemed to be starting Lingard and Mhki, I get the idea but both were clearly off the pace and it had a major effect on our play and City's ability to take advantage. Well improve.
As far as pogba goes, I said it from the minute we were linked to him he is not one to dominate games rather he is a player who produces moments of brilliance.

I'd put this down to a combination of City being set up very well and us being set up very badly. We were getting pulled around because Jose went with a 4-2-3-1 which made it hard for us to go and engage them in midfield and easy for them to play the ball from back to front via midfield.
As soon as we went 4-1-4-1 we looked much better.

This. An extremely naive display terrible positional discipline let his side down badly. Not what you expect
Pep had more touches of the ball than Pogba
Still he's great at instagram selfies and dabbing
Would like to see this side against Watford (if Rooney has to play)

Early days, but surely a worrying home defeat against a City side featuring a debut keeper and missing the top quality spine of Kompany, Gundogan & Aguerro?
....
Still our best start to a season in many years.

Match fit??? He's young so should be up there already. he only had a few weeks off after the Euros and has been back training and playing for several weeks.
ffs Pogba is in a new country, at a new club, has to learn some of the language/culture then will b fine
....................
forza spent a lot of time in England with Man Utd before so knows the language and culture. He even calls this place home.
comment by forza-4skins the name, sticking my spaghetti up donkeys is my game. I think Fackin Gaffer Pranks U6283 is grate as he took me up the rear on first date. Born in italy, live in Hull gone from farming olive trees to cleaning up after seagulls (U19575)

Whooooooooosh.
Was Pogba even playing? didn't see him at all.
Think he was seen digging himself a hole because he was once again paired with Fellaini.
