"Everyone expects from Pogba like they do from Ronaldo and Messi"

Bruno Fernandes has defended his Manchester United teammate Paul Pogba, who is constantly being linked with a move away from Old Trafford and becoming a Real Madrid player.

But the World Cup winner is receiving lots of criticism because of his poor spell, something which the Portuguese talked about in an interview with the club.

"In football, people normally forget what you do good when you have a mistake. You can do good for 34 games, and one game you do bad and everyone will remember that. When he played also, the club and the team was not good, because the expectations are high for Paul, because Paul is a top player and Manchester United pay a lot for him, and expectations are a lot for him," the former Sporting Lisbon man explained. 

He added: "It’s normal. Everyone expects from Paul like they expect from Ronaldo at Juventus or Messi at Barcelona. Everyone expects this from Paul in Manchester, because they know he has the qualities for this. Also this is confidence in Paul. The team, we have a lot of confidence in Paul."
