Giggs: Pogba could become a Keane, Robson or Gerrard

Paul Pogba, back at Old Trafford for his second spell, played the full 90 minutes in Fridays' 2-0 win over Southampton.

Manchester United great Ryan Giggs lavished praise on Paul Pogba after the world's most expensive footballer made his first start for the Premier League giants, mentioning him in the same breath as former captain Roy Keane, Bryan Robson and Steven Gerrard.

Pogba played the full 90 minutes in his first United appearance since completing his £89million transfer from Juventus as the Manchester club defeated Southampton 2-0 on Friday.

Back at Old Trafford for his second spell at the club, having departed for Italian champions Juve in 2012, Pogba did not disappoint, almost marking his return with a late goal.
