3 reasons why Manchester United is still the best club for Paul Pogba

After finishing 6th in the Premier League table and denying themselves an opportunity to play in the Champions League, Manchester United have been finding it difficult to attract new players to the club in the ongoing transfer window. The Red Devils have also been struggling to keep hold of a few talented players due to the concerns about the future of the club. Paul Pogba is one player who is intent on leaving Manchester United this summer.

Having returned to the club 3 years ago after a successful spell at Juventus, Pogba is yet to find his feet at Manchester United with his performances. The Frenchman has been good in the red shirt in a few games but the impact that he was expected to produce is still being awaited. However, for his country, Pogba has been extremely consistent and has also won a World Cup with his nation.

With Pogba looking for a move away from the club, we now look at 3 reasons why Manchester United is still the best club for Pogba at this point.

#1 The central figure

Pogba is a central figure at Manchester United

Since his arrival at Manchester United, Pogba has been the lone central figure at the club. Be it the brand advertisements or the style of tactics employed by the managers, every single decision taken by the club seems to have Paul Pogba at the center of it.

The reason for that is the immense potential the 26-year-old possesses and the kind of eye-catching performances that he is capable of producing. Most importantly, Pogba is probably the most talented player to have ever come out of the Manchester United academy in recent times.

Paul Pogba could also be the next captain of the club if he decides to stay.

If Pogba joins either Juventus or Real Madrid, the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Eden Hazard would overshadow his status at the club. If he does have a run of few bad games, Pogba would get fewer opportunities at these clubs than at Manchester United.

#2 Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

The Solskjaer-Pogba partnership could help the club return to its glory days

The stats reveal that the best phase of Pogba's 3-year long Manchester United career has taken place under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The first few months of Solskjaer's tenure at Manchester United saw Pogba being employed in attacking positions. The Frenchman flourished and that allowed him to appear frequently on the score sheet. Pogba was Solskjaer's preferred penalty-taker and the player did a decent job with that responsibility.

Solskjaer also showed how Manchester United could perform well with the Frenchman at the center of the system. Solskjaer hardly dropped Pogba in any of his games, which shows the confidence the Norwegian has in the 26-year-old. This would definitely help Pogba perform better and realize his true potential at Manchester United.

The spirit of Manchester United runs in both Solskjaer and Pogba and for the club to do well next season, these two should be allowed to work continue their partnership.

#3 A tough challenge

A tougher challenge awaits for Pogba at Manchester United

It is said that when the chips are down, an athlete's true potential and character come to the fore. With the situation at Manchester United, Pogba has a good chance to do well and help return his club to glory days of the past. In the process, he would also be able to prove his doubters wrong.

A few days ago, Pogba said that he was awaiting a new challenge in his career. A stint at Real Madrid or Juventus might not give that to the Frenchman. He could be playing in a different league but the tougher challenge would be to continue his career at Manchester United.

That being said, Manchester United would also require a player as talented as Pogba to find its touch back in the Premier League. The club has invested in him and it would not be wise to let go of the player now, and hope that they reap the rewards.
