Clearly, Pogba is yet to hit the kind of world-class form many expected him to find since moving back to Old Trafford and, while noting the player's athleticism, Souness suggested that the Frenchman doesn't appear to have a great understanding of the game.
"I think you've got to maximise his athleticism," Souness said. "He looks like a wonderful athlete, someone that could do that box to box thing for a full 90 minutes at the same pace and never dip from it.
"I see his problem - he's got the technique, he drops a shoulder he throws a leg over the ball - I don't see him having a great understanding of the game."

Asked to elaborate on his comment, Souness continued:
"We were talking earlier about players that can sense where a game is going, I think he's a totally off the cuff type of footballer.
"He may eventually be 100 million pound's worth, but right now I don't see him anywhere near that. I see a young man who's struggling to find his best position and best form in a team that's struggling to find their best form."
Unsurprisingly, United supporters weren't all in agreement with Souness's assessment of Pogba.
