I doubt it played out like this tweet suggests. It was probably a directive made to the entire team after Ronaldo blew his top in the 1st half and now it's being spun to paint Pogba as a villain.

This is the same Ole, mind you, that kept Fred on the pitch with a yellow card vs PSG despite the fact that he had already gotten away with 2 or 3 borderline 2nd yellows.

If Ole knew that Pogba was specifically a red card risk why bring him on when we're already 4 down? Surely if he was doing damage limitation, Matic would have been the go-to-sub. This is simply just PR from Ole and his camp.

Napoli looking good thus far...Big Vic made some very positive contributions thus far. 2-0 up they just need to see this out.

Napoli will need to pick up as many points as possible now before AFCON starts. Losing Osimhen, Koulibaly and Aguissa to AFCON will be a big blow.

I really think they can go all the way, unlike the years past, they don't have to score 3-4 goals to win a game.. They can win 1-0 and 3-0 this season.

@TobiOT @Ukbrotha thoughts you guys watch him a lot more than others

Short summary:
He didn't help himself sometimes, he played with a bunch of scrubs and the club kinda phucked him over.

70/30 in terms of blame. More towards the club than Paul.

Is a flop? Nah, more-so a mixed bag. That Liverpool fan is acting like he we brought El Hadji Diouf.
