I see Pogba, Zlatan and Rojo are in the squad, only when you list these names down you realise what we are missing, Rojo maybe not as much but nice to have the option and can't fault his commitment.
Are all 3 likely to be involved does anyone know?

No idea wrd personally I wouldn't expect to see any more than 20 mins for ibra a possible start for pogba and maybe rojo will sit this one out. Its good tho see a couple of leaders in pogba and ibra back. Just their positivity should have a good influence on others.

I agree about Ibra but wihilst Pogba has been playing well, I don’t honking of him as a leader. When you’re he going gets tough games have sometimes passed him by when we want to see him grab them by the scruff of the neck. He’s been great, hopefully he will develo this part of his game (perhaps he just needs a more effective partner)

I think your right jred. i'd play rojo and have pogs and ibra on the bench, wouldn't want to risk pogba too quickly we need him to stay fit.

"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.

Why is it a managers fee is astronomically lower than players going from team to team. Is it written into their contract that the fee would be lower?

Maybe becuase they earn or less.

Interesting question.
