Euro 2016 finalists France were held to a goalless draw against European minnows Belarus in their opening 2018 World Cup qualifier on Tuesday.
Manchester United record summer signing Paul Pogba started for France but enjoyed a mixed response from the fans as did most his teammates to be fair.
As is to be expected following a draw against Belarus fans were not exactly over the moon but there was a pretty harsh backlash against Pogba.
We took a look at how fans reacted to Pogba’s display on social media.
The ‘fraud’ insult was out in full force.
I’m gonna do a thread tomorrow (today) and show why Paul Pogba is a fraud

There were also question marks raised over whether Pogba is actually worth over £100 million. This tweeter believes his actual valuation if £20 million.
Games against teams like Belarus and Hull, you really do question Pogba’ price tag. Absolutely no more than £20 million. No questions asked

Perhaps just a tad over the top?
I joke a lot about Pogba to piss off reds but after watching that I can confirm he’s the most overrated footballer on this planet
