Paul Pogba made a guest appearance on IShowSpeed's most recent YouTube stream and he couldn't stop smiling after the online personality named his former Manchester United teammate as a Ballon d'Or contender.
IShowSpeed, real name Darren Watkins, reunited with Pogba in Monaco, where the Frenchman will play this season after almost two years away from the game.
The pair spoke about a range of different subjects, including Marcus Rashford's season-long loan move to Barcelona and Cole Palmer being "one of the best players in the world" following his impressive Club World Cup campaign.

But one of the biggest talking points from their conversation was Speed's top three contenders for the Ballon d'Or. "My top three?" said Speed. "Okay, I'm going to go Lamine [Yamal], [Ousmane] Dembele and Harry Maguire. One of them will win the Ballon d'Or, simple as that."
As you can see from the clip above, Pogba couldn't help but smile after hearing his former Manchester United teammate get a mention. After a lengthy pause, the Frenchman nodded his head before saying: "Alright".
Zlatan Ibrahimovic rips into 'arrogant' iShowSpeed during stream
During the live stream, Pogba set up a FaceTime with former Manchester United teammate Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who accused the YouTuber of "ignoring his messages" on Instagram.
Ibrahimovic bumped into Speed last year during a trip to Milan, when the latter would try and take on Zlatan in a one-vs-one battle, although the American was floored after being shoulder-barged by the former PSG striker.

A year later and Speed protested his innocence by saying he doesn't check his Instagram messages. Ibrahimovic, however, was far from happy. "Oh, Speed, I sent you a video on Instagram, and you didn't even f****** reply," he said. "You are getting f****** arrogant now,'
While Pogba was laughing in the background, Speed replied: "I didn't see it, I didn't know you texted me"
Pogba added: "You want to slap him right now?" to which Zlatan replied, "I'm gonna kick his ass".
Meanwhile, Speed could be heard whispering to the camera that Ibrahimovic was "scary", adding: "Zlaty chill, chill. I got you, I got you. I'm gonna text you back. See it's because I don't check my Instagram DMs."
Ibrahimovic ended the call by saying: "You got f****** arrogant. All the players made you famous, now you think you’re more famous than them."
