Paul Pogba, the talented French footballer, has had the privilege of playing for Manchester United twice in his career. His first stint with the club began in 2009 when he was just 16 years old. After a few years away, he returned in 2016, and his transfer fee still stands as the highest in the club's history. However, in 2022, he left the club once again, this time on a free transfer.
During his first time at United, Pogba was part of a team that won the FA Youth Cup in 2011. He played alongside some familiar faces, such as Jesse Lingard and current Premier League players Sam Johnstone and Will Keane. Despite his own immense potential, Pogba admits that Ravel Morrison was the standout player of their generation. He even goes as far as comparing Morrison's talent to that of Brazilian superstar Neymar when he was just starting out at Santos.
Although Morrison's career did not reach the heights expected of him, Pogba still remembers his unbelievable talent and skills. The two have remained friends, even after their careers took different paths. Pogba recalls a time when their competitive spirits almost led to a physical altercation during a training session. But in the end, they shook hands and became even closer.
Pogba reveals that Morrison was one of the first people to congratulate him when his doping ban was reduced. He describes Morrison as "the biggest talent of our generation" and admits that he feels a sense of responsibility as a player to use his talent wisely. While he doesn't want to say he feels sorry for Morrison, he acknowledges that he could have made better choices in his career.
It's clear that Pogba has a deep respect for his former teammate and friend, Ravel Morrison. Their shared experiences at Manchester United have created a bond that has lasted even as they pursue different paths in their football careers. As Pogba looks back on his time at United, he remembers Morrison as the standout player of their generation and the one who pushed him to be better on the pitch.
