Following a poor run of form and a repeated altercation with Manchester United Coach, Jose Mourinho, which has seen him sidelined, frustrated Paul Pogba says it would be a "pleasure" to play in the same team as Neymar, describing the Paris Saint-Germain star as having the "definition of happiness". The Manchester United midfielder in an exclusive chat with Argentine Television Channel, TYC Sports also said he looks at players such as Manchester City rival Kevin De Bruyne in a bid to improve his game.
Pogba has struggled for form at Old Trafford in recent times, and on Friday France head coach Didier Deschamps said: "It's a situation he won't be enjoying."
Pogba was quoted as saying
"Yes, Neymar. I like him. He has the definition of happiness on the pitch.
"In Brazil, football is everything, it's life in Brazil. Everyone plays football. I love to see him on the pitch playing, with his technique and his ability. It's a different style.
"When you say the word 'Neymar' around the world, everyone knows who he is and what he does. Therefore if I could play with him one day, it would be a pleasure."
On players that inspire him he said
"When I was smaller I always looked up to Zinedine Zidane, Lionel Messi, Ronaldinho and Ronaldo. I had videos of Maradona, Pele, Chris Waddle, Kaka - many players. I wanted to have all the virtues of those players.
"Now I look more at players like Andres Iniesta, Yaya Toure, Kevin De Bruyne and Luke Modric - who is a very strong midfielder player. I look at them to try to be better."
