Paul Pogba used to divide people. On one side, there were those of us who believed his elegance, his athleticism and his football intelligence were the key to returning Manchester United to the summit of the English game; who believed that when United brought him back in 2016, his arrival would be the catalyst for the club's revival.
I thought he would become United's new standard-bearer, their marquee talent. I thought he was good enough to become for United what Roy Keane had once been.
A different player to Keane, obviously, but somebody who had the ability and the character to be a leader in the dressing room and on the pitch.
