We all react differently when we lose our temper: some shout, others bang their fists on the table, but Kurt Zouma revealed how Paul Pogba took the extreme measure of banning him from his house after a game of cards turned sour.

Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma, currently on loan at Stoke, beat his France teammate Paul Pogba in a game of Uno, and the Manchester United midfielder's competitive streak got the better of him, as revealed by Zouma.

"He doesn't like to lose when we play card games, like Uno, he doesn't like to lose," Zouma told 'Goal'. "He is the same guy as before, he hasn't changed. The other day, I went to his house and beat him. He was so, so, so angry."

"He didn't want me to come anymore. He told me 'don't come anymore to my house'. I said 'my friend, please, it's only Uno we're talking about'."

 

The centre-back also joked about Pogba's notorious hairstyles and famous 'dab' celebration: "You have to say, he loves doing haircuts, he loves doing that," Zouma added. 

"Dabbing, I told him to stop but he won't stop but you know, it is good," he said, before concluding: "Pogba is one of the best players, he's got everything. That's why people talk about him, because he's so, so good."
