When they signed him?

This is just a few links, there are loads more with exactly the same tone. They all say it is time for him to come back, forget the past, he will be the heart beat to Uniteds midfield for the next ten years. I don't remember any negativity at all regarding Pogbas return.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37016170

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/aug/09/manchester-united-sign-paul-pogba-93-million-juventus

https://metro.co.uk/2019/06/03/juventus-begin-talks-re-sign-paul-pogba-manchester-united-9795083/

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2016/08/09/paul-pogba-completes-man-utd-transfer-for-world-record-fee/

How about all the talk that it was crazy that United were spending so much on a player they let go a few years prior? or all the negativity towards how the whole signing was just a social media publicity stunt? Yeah lets just brush that under the carpet because it doesn't fit your 'City are hard done by' narrative and claim that there was zero negativity at all...

Zero negativity....

  • Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri said in May 2015 that Pogba "needs to stop showboating in midfield" and he makes "avoidable" mistakes

  • Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger claims Pogba is in a "maturing period" and will not find his best form until the age of 26
  • Former England striker Gary Lineker asked during Euro 2016 if he was "the world's most overrated player"
  • Ex-United midfielder Paul Scholes had questioned Pogba's £89m valuation, saying he was "nowhere worth that kind of money yet"

So you found absolutely no UK media articles showing a negative slant to the the signing of Pogba? What you did was take a couple of quotes from a BBC article that I posted about the signing and made it look totally out of context in comparison to the rest of the article. That article was extremely positive overall in regards to the signing

It must have been a real kick in the town halls to watch City's great domestic achievements leap frogged by the result in Madrid.It probably explains why you and so many supporters can't properly enjoy the victories and cry arse so much.
