5 reasons why Paul Pogba will become the best midfielder in the Premier League

#5 Age

At just 23, Pogba has the best years ahead of him

When told the tale of a player who left Manchester United, joined Juventus, won multiple Serie A titles and reached the Champions League final, and finally returned to Manchester, one could be forgiven for thinking the player in question would at the very least be nearing his thirties.

Pogba's astonishing success and accomplishments have come about at a bewilderingly young age – 23, and the Frenchman has his best years far ahead of him.

At a position on the pitch where retaining a calm wise head can be a real advantage, Pogba has plenty of years to rack up the experience to go with his style. When the years set in, and the rush of adrenaline slows down a bit, expect Paul Pogba version 2.0 – fewer long balls and 40-yard shots perhaps, but more late runs into the box, more interceptions and cleverer passes.

Oh, and the hairstyles may get a bit less flashy as well.
