Man United news: Pundit details ‘the truth’ about Paul Pogba after Sky update – ‘people don’t tell you’
Kevin Campbell has slammed Man United as Paul Pogba edges closer to the exit door at Old Trafford.
Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, the former Arsenal and Everton striker said the “world-class” 29-year-old’s struggles are an indictment of the club’s poor management as opposed to the player himself.
Pogba went off injured against Liverpool just days after he was booed off by his own fans against Norwich City.
According to Sky Sports (20 April), the centre-midfielder is hurt by the reaction of some supporters when he was substituted on Saturday.
The France international’s contract expires at the end of the season and it is increasingly likely that he will leave the club on a free.
When asked for his assessment of Pogba’s situation, Campbell told Football Insider‘s Dylan Childs: “He gets scapegoated, of course he does.
“People give out stick for all sorts of reasons. The fact of the matter is, Manchester United have not been themselves for years now.
“The club Pogba thought he joined is not there anymore. People don’t tell you that but that is the truth. The Man United that people remember isn’ there.
“Their season has gone from bad to worse. If people want to boo, boo. The reality is, he is a top-class player who should never be leaving United because they should be up there challenging. His contract has been run down because the club is not being ran right.
“You’re telling me you’ve got a world-class midfielder not performing? Something is not right.”
