Gary Neville has blasted Paul Pogba for performing as if “everything he does is like a YouTube or Instagram video” during the first half of Manchester United’s come-from-behind win at Crystal Palace.
“His great weakness is that he plays like he’s playing in the park with his mates,” said Neville during the half-time analysis on Sky Sports.
“It’s like everything he does is like a YouTube or Instagram video. It’s like it’s not serious, it’s like a joke to him in terms of the way he goes about things.
“It’s no wonder Jose Mourinho has left him out for the past few weeks a number of times.”
Neville was also critical of the lack of chemistry between Pogba’s teammates.
“I’ve never seen a Jose Mourinho team as inefficient as this,” he said. “They’re always efficient teams, they always do things really calmly, they are usually solid in defence.
“He won’t recognise, I don’t recognise this as a performance. They are just individuals. They play in moments, they are not a unit yet.
“They’ve got to come together quickly because they’ve got to finish the season strongly but, most importantly, how are they going to get to a level that competes next season with Manchester City? They are nowhere near that level out there.”
