Paul, Paul, Paul. Why are you not in the running for the Ballon d'Or yet, Paul? Why are you not terrorizing Europe like you're supposed to?
Pogba has had a season that's symbolic of his club's. On and off. On and off. He bullied Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal and played the newly born cat against Newcastle, West Brom and Brighton. He was awkwardly poor against Sevilla.
Like Lampard said, maybe Pogba needs to take it down a notch and keep things simple until he is truly sure he can dominate things in the centre. He has the ability and the brains.

7 goals and 11 assists are decent returns for a centre-midfielder. But for now, I will not accept that from Paul Pogba. Pogba should be slaughtering entire leagues, man. That's why he gets a B and I think I'm being generous here.
Scott McTominay
McTominay impressed in the limited game time he got
Scotty boy is definitely one for the future. What captivated me most about his game is his ability to turn with the ball at his feet at the blink of an eye. He was brought in to do the basics and keep things tidy at the centre.
He did a pretty good job at it and at such a young age too! He will keep improving, I reckon. Jose's got his back and the fans absolutely love it when a fella rises through the ranks and makes it to the first team. The future looks bright.
