Pogba will not make a difference in big games – Moyes blasts United’s record buy

Former Manchester United manager, David Moyes, is not convinced Paul Pogba can make the difference for the Red Devils in big games.

Pogba who cost £89million last summer, has struggled to make an impact on his return to Old Trafford.

Although he has been tipped to show his worth this season, Moyes questions whether he can decide matches for Jose Mourinho’s team.

“I think he’s a top player, [but] I don’t know if he’s a player who completely makes a difference for Manchester United,” Moyes said, speaking to ESPN FC.

“I think that over the years Manchester United have had players like Cantona, even Ryan Giggs, people who are special players.

“I don’t know if Pogba’s that, I think he’s a good player, I think he’ll add to Manchester United, but will he make the difference? Is he someone who will score the goal at really important stages in games or make the key pass? I’m not sure about that.

“But I do think that the machine that Manchester United are now, the size, the players they’ve got, you know they’ve got a massive stature to their team, I think Pogba adds to that.

“And I do think he’s a good player, but I’m not quite sure if he’ll make the difference in key games.”
