The proof Paul Pogba IS a leader: Half-time dressing room footage shows Man United's maligned midfielder inspiring France to glory in the Nations League final, in contrast to Roy Keane's view on him

Paul Pogba has shown he does have what it takes to be a leader for Manchester United after footage emerged of the midfielder delivering a rousing half-time speech to inspire France to glory in the Nations League final.

Les Bleus lifted the trophy after a 2-1 win over Spain, with Didier Deschamps' men coming from behind to seal a late victory on Sunday night thanks to goals from Karim Benzema and Kylian Mbappe.

But with the scores level pegging at 0-0 at the half-time interval, United's £89million star Pogba demanded more from his team-mates, with a clip from the dressing room showing him digging into the squad for their lack of aggression.
