Paul Pogba v Graeme Souness
Paul Pogba might be everybody’s star player but not the former Liverpoool, Blackburn and Newcastle manager Graeme Souness. the manager could be said said to be the french international’s worst enemy although the 27-years-old has not against him. “I didn’t even know who he was.” Ouch.
Football has been under suspension for sometime now but the crictism from the manager to the French midfielder has known no suspension. The 66-years-old ex-Scotland midfielder has previously called Pogba “selfish” and suggested that, for the Frenchman, it’s all about “how cool he looks” and “how clever he is”. And even with Paul Pogba nursing injury, the criticism never stopped.
Recently the Sky Sports pundit said: “Pogba has absolutely everything to be a top player – great athleticism, super technique – but his attitude to the game is the polar opposite of mine. “He goes out with one thought in his mind: ‘I’m going to show everyone how clever I am today and be the star of the show.’ “He’d be an absolute doddle to play against.”
Finally, Paul Pogba has responded to all the crictism against him, the Manchester United highest buy has hit back at the Scottish man. Paul Pogba said in an interview, he said: “I didn’t even know who he was, really,” “I heard he was a great player and stuff like that. I know the face, but [not] the name.
“I’m not someone who watches a lot of [punditry]. I watch a lot of football but I don’t stay after the game to listen to what they say about why they did this, or why they did that. I like to focus on football.” It didn’t take long for Souness to speak out again, though. Discussing with Jamie Carragher on Sky Sports’ Souness said if you want talk about how good a player is “Put your medals on the table.”
“I’ve got a big table,” he said. Souness has a couple of models, he has five English First Division titles with Liverpool, and also three European Cups and three League Cups. For Paul Pogba, he also has some medals in his cabinet, Pogba has four Serie A titles from Juventus, a Europa Cup title with Manchester United and a World Cup winner’s medal from 2018. Paul Pogbo has also been instrumental in initiating donations for the coronavirus fight.
