Manchester United has been shocked by Sevilla in the UEFA Champions League's Round of 16, and they seem to know the reason beyond Mourinho's tactics: Paul Pogba.
The French midfielder displayed his very poor form during his substitute appearance against Los Hispalenses, and his substitution couldn't have come in a worse moment for the Red Devils, as Sevilla took the lead when he was brought in to change the game. He did, but not for the team that's paying him to do so.
His antics on the pitch caught the attention of those watching, whether they were fans or experts. Have a look at their comments and massive trolling.
Pogba comes on and Man Utd start to fall apart.

Was all going to plan for Mourinho until Pogba came on. You could argue. Ahem.

Pogba comes on in a big game, United give up a goal straight away, and I lie down in my grave plot to be buried alive by takes

Pogba + Martial = 170M€, Ben Yedder 10M€. C’est beau le foot

The Paul Pogba United sold for £500,000 is better than the one they bought for £89,000,000.

If Pogba had played on Saturday, Liverpool would have won 10-0. Don't @ me.

United got considerably worse when Pogba came on and Fellaini went off.

That Sevilla victory was all about the substitutions.

Sevilla - Ben Yedder
Man U - Pogba

I have no idea what’s going on with Pogba, but he looks a shadow of his former self. Can barely do anything right at the moment. Was dreadful when he came on.

Another masterclass (not) by Paul Pogba who made no impact at all - please explain to me again, what is special about him?
