Actually, Pogba will be in the starting 11 as he was prepped for this game, but due his agent kpkb, he was dropped.

Anyway, I think OGS will sack himself, unless he can attain at least a 4th position for this season.

As for the upcoming transfer window, I do not hope for much as already out of the CL and no point to reinvest in this team. Should just use the window to remove Pogba and get in someone like Rice to help the midfield

It's actually Pogba who asked his agent to make NOISE. The agent won't do it by himself without Pogba's agreement. Pogba is trying to be the good guy but actually he is the one causing the problems.

Mino Raiola has plenty of top stars but he is not making noise for them all the time. Why Pogba because the player is the one at it.

I believe so too as Pogba did not deny it too.

Anyway he is too much baggage for the club and no man is bigger than the club.

Since he think the club is not good enough for him, he should leave, but we must never be held ransom by the player or the agent and he must go on the club's terms.

If he is going to Juve, better we get from Juve a defensive mid or Ronaldo back

There is surely something wrong with the team or more likely Ole's team selection that changes almost every game. This clearly shows Ole still have no clue who the starting 11 should be. His favourites players are always starting no matter how their forms are and the rest are simply rotated. Ole had no guts to drop Macguire regardless of how badly he has been performing. Neither has he the guts to simply shut out Pogba who has openly declared his intentions to leave (cos his position is rightly overtaken by Bruno).
How are we expected to play consistently if the team is changed so regularly.
Like the last all important European game, he started with Shaw who had been out for more than 1 month and certainly not match fit.
Out of the 6 English teams that qualified for Europe this season, we are the only club knocked out.
Honestly Ole simply does not have the tactical know-how to immediately employ Plan B if Plan A does not work.

If United wants to move Pogba on, then whatever the agent is doing is helping us.
He is touting Pogba to everbody in Europe, doing what an agent should do.
What we want is to have a fee. We dun want him to go for free.
So touting Pogba to other clubs is actually in our interest.

And this talk about other clubs not being able to afford Pogba is probably our " 激将法 ".

I also feel that Solskjaer is tactically not on par with the best coaches.
But this is the only coach since SAF that I like about our transfer dealings.

The other coaches all wanted established reputable players whom many have little resale value. They actually depleted our coffers.
LVG sold many of our players away cheaply. Welbeck, Jonny Evans, Chicharito, Nani, RVP, Zaha, Rafael, Evra, Keane, Vidic, Ferdinand, Fletcher.
So much so that I thought he was a spy. He even bought Angel Di Maria and sold him one year later for 10Million loss.

Why buy DVDB n AT when you don't even want to start them. Ole had promised DH more playing time but had not kept his part playing DDG regardless of form.
Starting Pogba can only mean one thing. Hoping Pogba plays well to boost his resale value to prospective suitors? Or Ole is clueless?
