I think Saul is brilliant, and far superior to Pogba in every way but dribbling and long passes. Dude is one of the closest young players in style to Vidal around. Goals, assists, big engine, great tackler, good anticipation... he’s just a damn good all-around player. He’s also got a fantastic attitude and is a hard-working, humble player.
If we could get Pogba or him for the same price... 100% Saul. It’s not even a question.

He really doesn’t deliver. 8 of his goals his year were penalties. And the dude does absolutely zero in terms of off-ball work. Walks around the pitch like a lazy Sunday stroll. If you can’t see his regression there, you’re just a fanboy at this point. It’s fine to say you believe he can get back to top level, but to act like he’s been world class for united is pretty funny.
