Paul Pogba is an 'alien genius' but must stop 'annoying' marketing ploys to hit his potential, says Christophe Dugarry

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba must ditch his penchant for self-marketing if he is to reach his full potential, according to former France international Christophe Dugarry.

The 25-year-old is one of the world's most recognisable stars but has been in and out of Jose Mourinho's team after long periods of indifferent form. Despite his on-pitch struggles, his self-promotion has continued unabated.

That appears to have rubbed Dugarry up the wrong way, who blasted the midfielder for letting his focus slip in order to enhance his reputation off the pitch, and says the 'rage' he once displayed at Juventus is now long gone.
