Liverpool great Graeme Souness has explained his criticism of Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba earlier this season.

Indeed, the Scotsman has risked reigniting the feud, as he discussed Pogba on the Robbie Fowler podcast.

Souness said: “There's no doubting Paul's qualities. They're unique qualities.

"But it's a bit like Jack Grealish, I think he has had a fabulous year.

“For me, he's sprinting as quickly going back towards his own goal now as he does the other way forwards.

“He's putting a shift in now for the cause. There's no doubting their qualities.

"Paul Pogba has got unique qualities. Another wonder goal (for Manchester United ). He's the difference in big games.

“My criticism of his was that he didn't work hard enough for the cause and his team-mates. But you would not find me questioning his raw ability.

“He's up there with anyone you want to name around today. I just want more form him. He's that good, he can be the difference in most games; he's got that much quality. It's all about the work rate and what he was doing without the ball."
