Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says talismanic midfielder Paul Pogba has the traits to captain the club and be a leader in his team, despite the player being stripped of the armband by Jose Mourinho earlier this season.
Solskjaer previously served as United under-23s coach between 2008 and 2010 when Pogba was still breaking through the club's academy. He took a different tack when asked about Pogba's captain qualities, per the Guardian's Paul Wilson:
"He's a character, he influences people, he cares and he really wants to be successful. I know him from before [Pogba's first spell at the club when Solskjaer was on the coaching staff] and when he's enjoying himself he brings so many good things with him.
