Paul Pogba was criticized by Manchester United legendary midfielder Paul Scholes. However, Pogba's agent, Mino Raiola, criticized Scholes.
Scholes questioned the decision to make Pogba as Manchester United captain when he fell 2-3 at Brighton headquarters last weekend. In the match, the French midfielder did contribute a goal from the white point at the end of the game but for Scholes, Pogba's performance was not good enough.
"There is no leadership in the team, that's why we think Pogba may be the ideal leader candidate but he is not as expected [on Sunday]. He had another bad match. He was very inconsistent," Scholes said after the match.
Pogba himself admitted that his performance was not good enough. However, Scholes's criticism seems to have made Raiola hot.
Raiola helped repatriate Pogba to Old Trafford from Juventus two years ago. The super agent responded to Scholes's criticism.
"Some people have to speak for fear of being forgotten," Raiola said in his Twitter account, as quoted by Sky Sports. "Paul Scholes will not recognize a leader if he is in front of Sir Winston Churchill."
"Paul Scholes should be the only sporting director and advise [MU CEO Ed] Woodward to sell Pogba. It won't be difficult to find a new Pogba club," said Raiola
