A Quote by Marcelo

Paul Pogba is a revelation and my idol is Lillian Thuram. I'm inspired by the best and he was always a quick and safe defender.

I watch a lot of players in my position, but if I had to name a role model, I'd say Lillian Thuram because of the way he carried himself on the pitch and everything he did in his career.

Raphael Varane

I always ask Paul Pogba about Manchester United. I think they are a huge club with a really good infrastructure.

Antoine Griezmann

I love Paul Pogba.

Lothar Matthaus

Paul Pogba is a great player.

Robert Pires

My idol was always Tomas Rosicky. He used to be phenomenal. He had such a good eye for an opening and knew where his team-mates were and he was so quick. I copied everything about him – right down to his sweatbands. [] he would be one of the world’s best players. Jack Wilshere is a perfect player. Boy, he’s good. He’s so quick and skillful with the ball at his feet.

Marco Reus

Paul Pogba is a very good player.

Rivaldo

Paul Pogba cost Manchester United €105 million. Does he play like this?

Jupp Heynckes

I'm not a fan of Paul Pogba. Maybe he is a talent, but I don't see him as any more than that.

Lothar Matthaus

I've always liked taking the ball out of defence and I will carry on doing that but at the end of the day I'm a defender, and that's what I want to be known as - a defender, getting in the blocks and the headers that people don't recognise I do, the dirty stuff that every defender should do and should be good at.

John Stones

Do I want to be the best defender in Europe? Of course. Any defender will tell you that - who wouldn't want to be the best?

Aymeric Laporte

There was no better manager at developing young players than Sir Alex. He knew just when to bring them in and take them out, and he believed in Paul Pogba. For once, in Paul's case, it did not work out. The timing was wrong, and the difference between expectation on the player's side and the manager's idea of his development did not match up.

Paul Scholes

Paul Pogba can do everything but he cannot do everything all alone.

Didier Deschamps

As a competitor, you always want to go against the best, so whoever guards me, I'm hoping it's the best defender from the other team.

Tyler Herro

It could be the best defender or the worst defender. I have to have the attitude that I don't think anyone is going to deter me from getting to the basket. Maybe help defense can come over and affect it, but not the first guy.

Brandon Ingram

Being on a Paul Thomas Anderson film, the best decision an actor can make is to listen to Paul Thomas Anderson. Because he's probably not going to steer anyone in the wrong direction. I would always say go with your gut on any other movie set, but with Paul, I would say go with Paul's gut.
