Jose Mourinho can get the best out of Paul Pogba at Manchester United even if he uses him as a deep midfielder, Ray Parlour believes.

Wenger and Klopp recently expressed their distaste for the astronomical fees being paid by clubs in recent seasons, specifically highlighting Pogba’s £89m transfer.
“And, personally, one of my dreams is to win the Ballon d’Or”, Pogba told MUTV. “We can not change it you and I. Everything gets more expensive”.
The 23-year-old has also won two Coppa Italia and two Supercoppa Italiana trophies since making the move in 2014. So if he needs protection, I am here to protect.
Paul Pogba signed for Manchester United this week, but would former Arsenal ace Patrick Vieira have been worth just as much. I’m feeling now when I see him at the training ground with people he knows since he was a kid.
Pogba, who is excited to once again don the Manchester United Red, will wear the number 6 on his jersey, Sky Sports reported. He doesn’t look like a star.
While nearly all of the Premier League’s top clubs have spent heavily this summer, Arsenal have so far shown restraint in the transfer market – Swiss midfielder Granit Xhaka being the only high-profile arrival to the Emirates this summer.
It won’t be Pogba’s first time in a United shirt, but it will be his first time in the starting 11 for the club, since he had only played off the bench when he left back in 2012. With Madrid’s financial power, coupled with the fact that they will be competing in this year’s Champions League, Pogba’s decision to move to United pays testament to Jose’s ability as a manager and his ability to attract world class talent. I always enjoyed playing in front of the fans and can’t wait to make my contribution to the team.
