'He knows how to raise his level': Hugo Lloris admits Paul Pogba is 'lacking rhythm' as the French captain backs Manchester United star to recover from 'adversity'

Pressure is building on Paul Pogba at both Manchester United and on France duty, but Les Bleus skipper Hugo Lloris believes he is 'ready' to bounce-back.

Didier Deschamps is battling to recover his star midfielder's confidence but a below-par 57 minutes in an embarrassing 2-0 defeat to Finland did little to raise Pogba's spirits.

Once the world's most expensive footballer, Pogba has only started four of United's eight Premier League matches this season, and was left on the bench until the 82nd minute in a 3-1 victory against Everton last Saturday.
