That comparison is pretty lame. James Milner is strictly a winger, Pogba is probably the best versatile midfielder in world football and operates as such, defensively, when required.

 

12 assists was also the top of Serie A.

I know that that comparison was lame, it was meant as a joke. Pogba's obviously the better player and Serie A is not as quality as the Premier League. But to say that Milner is "strictly a winger" is incorrect, he got most of those assists playing central midfield this year. 

 

But yeah, Pogba's better. Just a little levity thrown into the situation before we all go at each other throats starting today :P

@Jaffa is probably going crazy right now! A first half goal in extra time! I think Leicester may struggle much like Chelsea did last season. It's still early in the match but I hope Hull pulls it out.

 

Long way to go yet. ;)

 

But it looked like Diomandé and Hernández struck the ball at the same time. I reckon it should therefore be counted as two goals, so we're still actually winning.

 

EDIT: We are actually winning. :D

All alone on top of the Premiership table! How does that feel? ;)

I knew you were at least half-joking if not fully joking, but who knows, a new fan might have come into this thread, see the image, and think "Hey, James Milner must be as good if not better than Paul Pogba".

Don't worry England, be happy Italy.

In a way that's good, means Liverpool will have a bigger chance of getting there one day, and it's also good to see the Italian teams get rewarded for their performances.  But I was kind of looking forward to seeing England get punished.  There's a definite snobbishness around the Premier League that I don't really like, and this just kind of plays into the spoiled child mentality.
