pogba still very young that time.. how many 18yrs old given chance to be wt top club 1st team squad. the fact SAF promote him at 18yr and gave him debut at tht age clearly show he was rate quite high.
SAF want him to stay.. he sent evra to persuade pogba to stay then SAF also when to pogba house personally to do so
Irregardless of he's 18yo or 21yo, he's been playing in midfield his entire youth career. How many years of experience does PJS and Rafael have as a CM?
Imagine that you're a training chef. Suddenly the assistant chef is sick and the head chef need some help. Instead of asking you to step in since you have some experience, he go ask the dish washing lady to help just because she's been working in that kitchen for far longer than you.
It was the same situation with Rashford. Martial was injured during warm up.
Imagine of LVG didn't take a leap of faith and throw on Rashford. Instead, he look at Rojo and tells him to go play up front and help hold up the ball to bring other players into play. We would not be raving about Rashford now.
SAF did all those after the Blackburn match. That time, I would assume it was too late. He was already contacted by Juventus.
