"With Paul, you can see that there was - and now I can speak now because he's back - but you can clearly see Manchester United this season before Paul's injury and after Paul's injury. "

"There are qualities in our football that influence our approach in matches, with Pogba and without Pogba, that's as simple as that. "

Quote from jose about pogba.

Ive seen posts on here to this effect and but now I've seen jose actuallt say this i wonder was our aproach to the games he's missed actually because jose relies on pogba so much for our attacking threat?

Not for just his attacking threat but the fact also that pogba is really the only player at the club who can find the balance between taking risks and playing it safe.

We have players in midfield like matic, herrera and fellaini who really only pass sideways or back and keep possession and players like micky and martial who struggle to keep hold of the ball for any prolonged period of time because they are more attack minded.

Pogba really was an turning into an all round midfielder at the start of the season, good passing range long and short, great at carrying the ball forward and shielding it and most importanly he was beginning to affect the game in the final third with goals and assists.
