Paul Pogba is a tremendous talent – there is no denying that.
However, he proves to be a decisive figure who splits opinion among Manchester United fans – and many others within the game.

Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville we not in agreement over Paul Pogba
Therefore, there was little wonder why he was again the major talking point on Sky Sports prior to Everton’s clash with United on Sunday.
Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher were involved in a heated debate when discussing the Frenchman, with the former insisting that for all Pogba’s flaws he is still capable of lifting United out of the wilderness.
“He is a leader. He’s actually a good lad. Look, Manchester United are in the wilderness,” Neville told Sky Sports.
“When are Man United going to be successful again? When I think back to the mid 80s, Bryan Robson carried United through the wilderness.
“He decided to stay with the club and he was rewarded in the early 90s with a couple of Premier League titles.

Paul Pogba’s long term future at Manchester United remains uncertain
“Pogba has got the capability to carry United through this wilderness. I believe you can build a team around him.
“What he has to decide is whether he wants to be that player who gets Man United back to the top again. He has the ability to do it. He is the one player in the squad who is world class.”
The Robson comparison in particular appeared to irk Carragher, who also believes that Pogba is not the type of player the Red Devils can build their side around due to his inconsistency.
“I don’t agree with you when you make the comparison with Bryan Robson,” he said.
“My problem with Pogba is he came in as a midfielder and when you think of the greats like Robson, Roy Keane, Yaya Toure and Steven Gerrard – those people drove those teams on.

“My problem with Pogba is not whether he is world class, it’s that he’s either 9/10 or 4/10. Bryan Robson was 7 or 8 out of ten pretty much every week and sometimes better.
“There is no in between with Pogba. I don’t think you can build a team around him because he’s so hit and miss.
“Players who you build teams around are those midfielders I’ve already spoken about. You know what you are going to get every week.”
Pogba’s long-term future at Old Trafford remains uncertain, and until the day comes when he does depart the Premier League giants he will no doubt continue to be a regular topic of discussion.
