Former Arsenal and Manchester City defender, Bacary Sagna has criticised Manchester United fans for their treatment of Paul Pogba.
Sagna insisted that Pogba loves Manchester United, but the Red Devils fans want him to do everything like Cristiano Ronaldo.
Pogba, whose current deal with Man United will expire at the end of the season, has been criticized for his recent performances for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side.
“I love Paul and the way he plays. I don’t want to speak for him, but it seems like things have been a little difficult between him and the fans at times because they expect so much from him,” Sagna told Metro UK.
“They want him to be perfect because he’s so charismatic on the pitch and can create so much space they want him to do everything. A bit like now with Ronaldo.
“Pogba got a lot of stick for his recent sending off [during United’s 5-0 defeat to Liverpool], yes it was a bad tackle, but he’s trying to fight and get the ball back for the team.
“What do you want him to do, just stand and watch? People think he doesn’t care, that he’s smiling but knowing him, he was disappointed.
“I don’t know if he belongs at Manchester United. I’d love to see him shine in the team – he loves Manchester.”
