A few months is a long time in football, and the rapid turnaround of general sentiment from mockery to praise of Paul Labile Pogba is testament to that. In fairness to Manchester United fans, they remained patient and relaxed about the Frenchman's sometimes wayward form throughout, but the greater footballing world were foolishly dismissing him as a flop within weeks.
The 23-year-old is proving all his doubters wrong with some sparkling displays of late, and the Old Trafford faithful are absolutely cock-a-hoop at his upward trajectory. In fact you'd be very hard pressed to say anything about Pogba these days that would ruin the supporters' mood...unless you happen to work for the official club Twitter account that is.

After the utter travesty that was the hashtag #POGBACK when the player signed from Juventus for £89m, the Man United account has excelled itself with an even more embarrassing post. If you assumed that was impossible, think on. Because their most recent effort has had supporters around the world begging that they delete it asap.
You may or not be aware that Pogba now has his own personal emoji on Twitter. The mark the fast the club decided to yet again turn his surname into a truly awful pun that makes no sense whatsoever. Introducing...*deep sigh*...Pogmoji:
