Jamie Carragher Warns Man City To Stay Away From Paul Pogba

Speaking to Sky Sports, Jamie Carragher said: "I wouldn't go anywhere near him. You win the league every year, you get 95 to 100 points every year, but Paul Pogba doesn't work hard enough or as much as these other Manchester City players.

"Pep Guardiola might be able to get it out of him, and there's no doubt he's got ability, but when you see the other creative players in the Man City squad — Phil Foden, Bernardo Silva — these are brilliant players who don't stop running and don't stop working from minute one to minute 90.

"That's what makes Man City what they are. They're a great team, brilliant manager with great individuals... I'm not doubting his quality but he doesn't work hard enough. If anyone says he gives 100 per cent in every game, that's a lie.

"Pogba, whether in a French shirt or for Manchester United, shows unbelievable quality and does special things at different times but we're around six years in or however long he's been at Man United and we're still talking about his best position and who can get the best out of him."

Pogba is se to leave Man United at the end of the 2021/22 season after turning downs several contract renewal offers at Old Trafford.

The Frenchman has been linked with a move to Man City on a free transfer although Paris Saint-Germain appear to be a more likely destination.
