Manchester United star midfielder Paul Pogba failed to live up to the expectations of the away fans in their club’s Europa League Group A fixture against Dutch outfit Feyenoord. The 23 year old, who is also the world’s most expensive player, had a terrible first half at the De Kiup. The two sides went into the break having failed to find the back of the net, but it was Man Utd’s weak midfield that raised eyebrows.
Despite his promising debut for the Red Devils in the Premier League against Southampton, Pogba’s performance has been on the decline lately, most notably during the Manchester Derby last weekend when they lost 2-1 to Pep’s men. And in today’s game, he only managed to fire one shot, created zero chances, zero tackles, zero dribbles, and was dispossessed thrice. Quite a terrible start for the flamboyant star and the tweets below share the same sentiments. Given his undisputed talent, he probably needs some more time to settle at his new club.
Didn't expect it but out Pogba looking a bit lost in his free role, Schneiderlin and Herrera both playing very well.
