Paul Pogba (137 Viewers)

Don't know how you define 'key player'.

You're right in saying that he's a good player just now (obviously there is huge potential, but that doesn't mean he's more than a good player just now).

If Marchisio was playing better - I gather he was very good for Italy, so I'll be interested to see if that's him back properly - Pogba wouldn't be a key player just now, but with Marchisio struggling Pogba has become pretty important for Juve this season.

There is also the matter of Pogba being capable of the spectacular. Now, there are times when his attempting difficult (virtually impossible) things is harmful to Juve, but, with a lot of Juve's play looking laboured for a fair chunk of the season, Pogba's ability to produce the spectacular and very consistently make a difference in the final third has been extremely valuable.

I still think Juve play better football in general with Marchisio in the team than they do with Pogba, but you just can't dismiss a player who is contributing so much in terms of goals and assists.

So, my answer is an in-betweeny sort of one:

If everyone at Juve was in form and the team was fuctioning as it would have been hoped it would function, Pogba wouldn't be a key player, but an extremely useful option.

With Juve not playing as well as would have been hoped at the start of the season, you would have to say that Pogba has been key to Juve getting results without the team playing very well as a whole.

I agree with every single word in this post. Therefore, it must be utter bs.

You're just a Marchisio fanboy.

Shocking. I never would have guessed.

Meh, if he doesn't up his game, it won't last

Shocking. I never would have guessed.

Don't blame me. I'm just here to talk rubbish & show I don't understand the first thing about the game.

We can't all be as objective, tactically astute & unpredictable as you are.

Consider who they were up against for their NTs at the time. Italy had Baggio, Signori and Zola in Del Piero's position, for Buffon read Pagliuca and Marchegiani. With respect to this France squad Pogba's competition of Sissoko, Cabaye, Matuidi, Mavuba, Capoue, Kondogbia and the like aren't even in the same league, at least not at this moment in time.

I'm pretty certain Buffon and Del Piero aged 20 would also make the current Italy squad. Serie A, Juventus, Parma and the Nazionale were a lot stronger in 1994 and 1998 than they are now.

Thats a very interesting point you mention, Well people forget the quality of Seria A and also the NT in this time, it was class, possibly the best league in europe back then.

Pogba's thread in the last weeks

Personally, I would sell Pogba in the Summer for 60 million and sign Verratti and Jovetic.

Personally, I would lock you inside a room with a hungry lion and throw away the key.

Nicholas is a worst poster than badass devil.

I can't believe that is even possible

 

[Nicholas]

Means so much to me coming from you.

The reality is Pogba will leave if not this summer, the next at the very latest.

 

[Lion]

is it as real as Jovetic to juve done deal of last summer?

 

[Zacheryah]

Never said he was good enough to start for Juve regularly.

Jovetic made it into the EPL's "worst signing 11"

keep him until he is 27-29 and then sell him for a world record fee to real madrid just before he starts to fall down. that's what milan did with shevchenko.

Easy there son, not everyone wants to sell him.

I for example, couldnt care less if someone offered 60+million.
