The man spends his days shaving tracks into his hair and dabbing.

See, it doesnt really bother me if people criticise Pogba's performances. He hasn't been nearly as bad as people like to make out but he also hasn't been as good as he could have.

Its when people make nonsense statements like that above, as if it's the tiniest bit relevant to anything. Souness does it constantly.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Except it’s not nonsense is it. The question was posed as to why Pogba might not know about the midfield greats that came before him and won the games greatest prizes - and I pointed out that it’s because he’s preoccupied with himself and his marketability.

I don’t blame him either. It clearly generates income. But it also answers the question as to why he’s ignorant of his peers.

I'd still rather have Souness in my team any day ,than Pogba .
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t think anyone would be stupid enough to disagree a peak souness over Pogba any day.

Don’t really get what the problem is between them, but I do t watch sounded much as a pundit.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's simple really. Souness doesnt beat around the bush and says what he really thinks in regards to Pogba, as many in here do including United fans.

Pogba retaliated, Souness retaliated etc etc.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Pogba didn't retaliate.

He said, he didn't know who Souness was but he heard he was a great player. A GREAT PLAYER.

He acknowledged him as a great player... why the feck would anybody born and partly raised in France know about Souness? He's not Gazza!

The only reason he's even relevant now is because of Sky Sports.

"Hes toxic"

Elaborate please
----------------------------------------------------------------------

He can't, anybody who listened to the pod cast or watches how his team mates interact with him would know it's bollox.

No, it is nonsense. The idea that someone isnt focused on their craft because they dance and have a fancy haircut is complete and utter horseshīt, in fact.

There's players out there who don't know what a Tottenham Hotspurs is.

Strange logic to think that self-obsession is the reason why a foreign player has no clue who played for Liverpool in the 70s and 80s.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Why’s that strange?

For a player of his magnitude not to be aware of his peers is a little odd.

Are you aware of Platini for example? Or how about Baresi?

I’m a big football fan and know many of the great European cup winning captains as far back as the 60s.

I didn’t mention his craft. I said he was ignorant of his peers. And he is.

The person you're responding to is renowned for sucking off Tommy Robinson, so that should tell you something about how he is constructing his opinions..

I do think Sky are guilty of stirring this to be honest.

Souness does talk about Pogba too much but quite often it's the other pundits baiting him into doing it.

He's the type of pundit that doesn't sit on the fence and will get viewers for his opinions.The same reason they've hired Roy Keane of late- controversial opinions bring in the money.

I would Hazard a guess that there are plenty of football fanatics who grew up in France and are Pogba's age who dont have a clue who Graeme Souness is. He's not exactly Maradona is he?

He doesn’t understand that there are people that live outside of the Liverpool bubble.

What reason are people giving for Souness to be better than Pogba (or vice versa)?

It's no big deal that Pogba doesn't know who Souness is. Just because he doesn't doesn't make him a bad person.

posted on 14/4/20

I don't suppose Souness would have been aware who the equivalent Italian TV pundit would have been when he moved to Samp back in the day.

And I imagine he spent plenty of time during his playing days taking an enjoyable trip to the haircut shop with Phil Thompson to get their perms done.

Not much of a story really, unless there really is something slightly more sinister behind his comments as some have suggested.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Probably the same way footballers from the UK know the top French players in the decade or two before they started playing. They played for the top clubs, winning the top trophies. Souness won the European Cup three times, for example, playing for one of the biggest clubs in the world. He then played in Italy.

If you think Pogba didn't know who Souness was then you're as thick as he is.

The mass delusion over Pogba is amusing to say the least. You'd be forgiven for thinking he's been decent/average by United fans when really he's been a terrible signing and probably the biggest flop in this league ever.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Naby Keita is the biggest flop in this league ever
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He cost more than Fred as well.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
did he? he cost 52.5m and fred cost 61.2m
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fred cost less than Keita.

Oh they would

...........................

Please point them in my direction to be educated, that is a good chap.

Why is Souness obsessed by Pogba? It seems that Pogba preoccupies his every waking thought.

If I was Pogba I would just keep mocking the senile old . Send him even more over the edge.

No that's not a fact. What is a fact is he was a multi trophy winning captain of one of the best sides of his era, who won the European Cup three times. List the players who have won the European Cup three times and see what company he is in. Just because you're football knowledge is limited doesnt make what you believe a fact.

posted on 14/4/20

He’s right, though. Most footballer’s football knowledge is limited because they aren’t consumed by it outside the workplace like fans are.

posted on 14/4/20

Does it really matter that Souness has won more than Pogba anyway?

Pogba bites once, and it's a good WUM too, and Souness doesn't like it.

This isn't true one bit. Growing up they were obsessed with football, most wouldn't make it if they weren't.

I see Carragher thought Pogbas comment about a player who played 30 yrs ago in a foreign league to him was below the belt

I wonder how far below the belt spitting at a 14 yr old girl is
