He's deluded mate if he thinks anyone is buying into his shite anymore. Silly comments like "Pogba was a giant against Chelsea, the best player on the pitch" coming from a supposedly grown up man make him look like a fool. This comment meant something 10 years ago when he was massively backed by the results. Now it's only delusions of grandeur coming from a yesterday's manager trying to hold on to his United job. He knows the results are poor and this particular signing was a complete farce so far, but he's making this comments to try and please the fans, making them into thinking he's defending the club and players with all he's got. He knows that in the eventuality of missing the top 4, fans are his only card out of jail, that's why he's licked they arsses since being appointed as manager. He's lucky United have a history of at least trying to keep their managers long term, otherwise he'd have been already rumoured to get the sack should he miss on top 4.
