Pogba needs better players around him at Man Utd, says Keane

Paul Pogba is being held back at Manchester United by those players around him, says club legend Roy Keane.

The France international midfielder, who has been selected in Didier Deschamps' side for World Cup 2018, has regularly courted criticism since moving to the club in the summer of 2016 for a record fee of €105 million (£89m/$123m).

Indeed, ahead of the summer's competition in Russia, Denmark boss Age Hareide, whose side will face France, has suggested that the Parisian only "cares about his hair".

Keane, who spent 12 years of his career anchoring the Old Trafford side in a similar role to Pogba, says the 25-year-old is being made to look bad by his club-mates.
