Pogba may improve under better coaches, but there is a reason why Barca and Real refused to take him. Barca had first option on him but were not convinced.
I understand Barca, Pogba's game won't fit with Barca's 'smooth-flow' style...........but a Klopp with his 'pressing' style that depends on a solid midfield 'kingpin' orchestrating the moves will be a perfect fit for Pogba.
That said.................Pogba is not worth near $100m but it was never his call.
I read it somewhere once, that we mostly end up working for the place where we aced the interview rather than where we truly desire to be.

Well Pogba will wake up with a big middle finger on the pundits, haters alike, an overrated footballer wins the world cup, almost unheard of

For all those who say that Pogba was "better at Juve than he is at Man Utd", cold hard facts:

4 league titles at Juve and non at United says more about the quality of players he played with at Juve (Pirlo, Vidal, Higuain, Dybala, Buffon, Chielini, Bonucci, Evra, Mandzukic) and the lack of that quality at United (Young, Lingard, Lindelof, Schweinsteiger, Fellaini).

It says nothing about Pogba.

well you have to play with quality players to win titles! can remember Pogba even scoring in the world cup final! let the haters hate, that boy is world class, complete midfield player, range of passing skills, short, long, and can certainly finish

at United we relied on him too much without having anything to compliment

Given that Manchester United are desperate for midfielders, and have little or no money to spend, is it worth taking a gamble on Pogba yet again?

...the ego clash with Alexis Sanchez that helped to tumble the club to where they are today may continue with Bruno Fernandez the more influential and captain still there.

That dude was such a baller during his first go at it with Juve. Just pure talent and skills. He should’ve never come to England. But live and learn. Hope he can reignite his career

Hollywood Paul Pogba. Self-fulfilling prophecy. Little Britain is not to blame. From the moment his Id conquered his ego, he was on his way down Balotelli Boulevard. Much like Mario, a “should’a, woulda, coulda”. On the plus side, more medallions than the A-Teams B.A Baracus, millions in the banks and more followers on the dot com than 7th day Adventism. By the standards of pop culture, he’s a legend and arguably a variety of GOAT.
