No you haven’t read the title wrong. I was deliberately gazing away when this idea struck me, lets take a time machine which would take us two months forward in the Transfer Deadline day, all over major tabloids: “Manchester United seal astonishing deal for Paul Pogba from Juventus.” Yes it’s a fantasy world but who on Earth doesn’t love to dream?
The 20-year-old, who signed for United from French side Le Havre, was offered a new contract at Old Trafford, but the player opted to turn it down in order to further his career elsewhere. Claimed Pogba (Daily Mail): “I didn’t want to sign a contract as Ferguson didn’t play me, even though there were no midfielders there. He obviously thought I didn’t deserve the contract I asked for, and didn’t put me in the team even though he had no midfield players. It was his choice. United were short of players like me, but it was the manager’s decision. I couldn’t do anything about it. I was frustrated because he spoke to me a few times and said I was nearly there. I told him ‘If I don’t play then I can’t get any experience and see how far I have to go’. I played a few cup games but he didn’t want to give me a contract and they just let me go.”
Without further demand more speculating thoughts from our readers, here we present few reasons for which Moyes and co must splash the cash for the Juventus Youngster.
1. Pogba’s style of Play:
What United have really lacked this season is their aerial ability and threat from pieces, one which is clearly underlined by Van Persie’s looping header to rise highest and get the win against Premier League leader Arsenal. What Pogba, the French International brings with him is his aeriel ability who wins most of his duels in the air. Moreover Pogba is brilliant from scoring through long ranges as puts his laces behind the ball. The obvious part of a future link up with Micheal Carrick in the middle of the park will ultimately help United in the long run.
