Paul Pogba's Latest Comments Will Excite Manchester United Fans

You get the feeling that if Paul Pogba sneezed in a particular way he'd excite Manchester United fans, and some others, but his latest comments are a genuine reason for Red Devils fans to be excited.

Paul Pogba and his dabbing ways were the talk of all the transfer window last summer, one might say he was the Romelu Lukaku of last summer.

The Frenchman then had a season that wasn't quite befitting of an £89 million player, although lord knows what that actually is, but was far better than some, mainly non United fans, gave him credit for.

However the thing with the former Juventus player is that he's able to court interest with pretty much anything and everything he does, from goals to handshakes, even if one does follow the other.

And for once the midfielder has done something worth taking note of, in fact it's what he's said by suggesting that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is still a leader off the pitch:

"Obviously Zlatan is a leader, always a big leader, and he's a big leader because he's still in the team. Even though he's not playing he's a leader outside of the pitch."

Zlatan, like Pogba, signed for United last summer. He joined from PSG on a free transfer, finally heading to the Premier League at the age of 35.

It was a great season for the Swede but an ACL injury at the back end of the season prevented him from signing a new deal and he was released.

There's lots of rumours that he could re-sign at Old Trafford in the middle of the season once his injury has healed and Pogba's revelation will excite fans who want to see the former Barca man back in the side.

Many also see Pogba, who played for the United academy before leaving for Italy, as a future leader of the club and there were rumours he would be the vice captain.

The player suggested he'd like to be a future captain adding, "I've been playing for one season, I came here to hopefully be a leader in the team.

"That's not the objective but that's how you should be. I've been here, we won, and you want to grow up as a player and a leader as well.

"I can learn from him, from [Michael] Carrick, all the other players and become a leader."

The dabbing captain could be something for the future.
