The French footballer, Paul Pogba, started his career in the youth team of Ligue 1 side, Le Havre, in 2007 before he got transferred to Manchester United in 2009 and played till 2012. He joined Juventus on a free transfer in 2013 before he returned to the Red Devils Club in 2016 as a central midfielder.

Paul Pogba who plays the central midfield for Premier League club, Manchester United and the French national team, has avenged the Liverpool legend, Graeme Souness’ critics declaring he didn’t know who Graeme Souness was.

The central midfielder has managed to appear twice since September due to ankle injury. Still, Graeme Souness has continuously attacked him on his football styles, actions, performances, attitude, and fashion since his £89m return to Manchester United in 2016.

The Scot stirred the 27-year old footballer up with his long-term critics. The critics made Paul Pogba inform the United podcast he didn’t know who the former Rangers manager was.

Paul Pogba, in his words, said he heard Graeme Souness was great, but can’t recognize his face. Moreover, the central midfielder said he doesn’t watch a lot of punditry, he watches a lot of football but does not stay after the game to listen to what they say about the game, his focuses are on the football matches.

Furthermore, Pogba was generally questioned about his critics. The Frenchman said he ignores the lousy press because “Everyone is trying to ‘sell’, I guess. They miss me, and I don’t know? I’m not someone that always looks at Sky News,” he remarked.

Paul Pogba told the podcast, you don’t need someone to tell you about football when you know about it. Pogba has had a lot of people questioning his actions, and he is confused about why they have so many complaints. “If they want to talk, they can. I am used to it, and it doesn’t bother me,” Pogba said. The Frenchman cares more about what his manager and team-mates want, “The rest is talk, it is selling stuff,” he remarked.
