Paul Pogba in my opinion has not lived up to expectations. He jogs everywhere and seems to lack effort.

However, his 10/ 15 mins against city where he scored 2 and the 2nd goal tonight shows what he can do by putting in the effort. There’s no doubt he has so much potential and hopefully he will work over the summer and show us what he’s got next season!

Im not arguing against your point mate BUT he has a very laboured aproach yo his type of play. SOMETIMES he looks lazy BUT has actually had a good game.

Just wanted to point out regardless of how he's played, he has a style that makes him look 'lazy"

Agreed EZRS it’s perceived lazy because of the way he moves. Same happened to berbatov in comparison to Tevez. And I’m sure ozil’s running stats are higher than Sanchez this season while at arsenal. Can be deceiving.

I don't think effort alone should deceive you. It's about the end result that counts. Jimmy Greaves in his hey day barely moved from the penalty area but boy could he score goals. So if Pogba has a languid style but he affects the game positively for us that is what matters. Also to be fair to him if he had a really good midfield partner it would help him no end. The best teams have top pairs of midfielders playing close to each other. Think of our past teams. Today look at City Silva and DE Bruyne or Madrid Kroos and Moriches Barcelona had Xavier and Iniesta. Matic is great as a defensive shield but he plays too far away from Pogba.

I remember one of the eds saying as soon as we sign him that we would have to get used to he's playing style, and he may look lazy he plays in bursts in a game. Or something along those lines.

Scholes said it the best, you can't be a united midfielder wanting to win things and only play well one in three games.
