Graeme Souness claims Paul Pogba should have been punished for challenge on Wolves' Ruben Neves in the build up to Manchester United's goal as it 'could have been a leg breaker'

Graeme Souness believes Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba should have been penalised for a challenge on Wolves' Ruben Neves at Molineux on Sunday, saying that it could have been a 'leg breaker'.

Pogba wasn't punished by referee Mike Dean for the challenge, which occurred just prior to Mason Greenwood scoring what proved to be the only goal of the game, with United prevailing with a 1-0 victory.

Although Pogba didn't make major contact with Neves, Souness was heavily critical of the tackle, stating that the Frenchman was 'nowhere near the ball' as he raised his foot.
