Pogba and Ibra: Why do you need both?

Two of the biggest signings recently have been Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba at Manchester United. One has made an outstanding impact and the other has been less than sufficient (for lack of a better term). I am not a United fan myself, however I am surrounded by them everyday because for some reason, everyone I know is a United fan. Being a soccer fan in general though, it is hard to look away when a team signs two of the biggest names in soccer.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one of my personal favorite players. The Swedish national is know for show-stopping goals and an absolute cannon of a shot. Since signing with United, he has taken on the role of the goal-scorer. In fact, he scored in his first appearance with United.

Paul Pogba is also a "high-light reel" type player. The French national is only 23 years old and somehow has us all convinced he is worth more than any other player in the world. He signed with United for 100 million Euros. Let that sink in for a minute. 290k Euros per week. This is all great and everything...except for the fact that he has not produced for his club since singing. Some would say it was a bad signing on United's end. If you ask me, I think they just have too many superstars playing on one team, which can cause a power struggle as well as a chemistry issue.

Credit to Manchester United for flashing the big bucks and going out and getting some of the best players in the world, but it all means nothing if you do not win games. I am not saying this was a bad decision, or that Pogba is not a good player. I am simply raising the point that United may have gotten a little greedy with their signings and did not think about what could go wrong from a team perspective. Let's hear what all the United fans out there have to say, leave your comments below!
