Man Utd: Paul Pogba is ‘happy’ at club says Julien Laurens
Manchester United legend Roy Keane says there must be more to come from Paul Pogba in terms of consistency in performance. Pogba has been a regular for United since the return of football in June after recovering from his long-term ankle injury. However, Keane has not been totally convinced by the Frenchman.
Pogba continues to be linked with a move away from United, with reports claiming the potential sale of the 27-year-old could affect Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's transfer plans.
But on the pitch, Keane wants to see Pogba at his best on a more regular occurrence.
"I think he's done okay," Keane said on Sky Sports.
"I wouldn't get carried away with what Pogba's done over the last two months.
"Big, strong boy, he's got a goal in him, he's got a pass.
"I like watching Pogba when he's at the top of his game but then we see incidents where he's not at it, the penalty incident the other night kind of summed him up.

"Every time he had a bad game it was all 'Pogba's not good enough'. I agree with Roy, he hasn't been consistent enough for the levels of what Man United should be at.
"But look at the players around him, he's actually playing with, you'd get frustrated at that.
"He was playing with Fred, he's done a lot better this season, but Fred and [Scott] McTominay's done well but it's not the same as a Fernandes or whoever they might go for in the future.
"They look a better team now and I think he should be given a bit more time to show exactly what he can do now he's got a better base around him."
