France and Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba, has said he has become “the most-criticised player in the world”.
Pogba set a record for the most expensive transfer when he joined United from Juventus for £89.3million in 2016 and has frequently come under criticism for not living up to his price tag.

The midfielder has been in and out of form in his two seasons with United, insists he is a target for critics.

“It seems I have less right than others to make mistakes,” Pogba told Telefoot.

“It’s funny, I went from being the biggest transfer in the world to the most-criticised player in the world. The critics will always be there. That’s football.

“When I was little with my friends, we always used to take the mickey out of each other, saying, ‘You were good, you were bad.’ It’s what happens on every football pitch, and I treat the criticism now like I did when I was playing on the street as a kid.

“I’m out there having fun — and that’s the only answer I can give to all those people who criticise me or think I am this or that. It’s not a big deal. Everybody has opinions
