World Cup-winning midfielder Paul Pogba is being judged unfairly at Manchester United due to his £89million transfer fee, according to France captain Hugo Lloris. Pogba, who rejoined United from Juventus in August 2016 for a then world record fee, has been criticised this season by pundits and United boss Jose Mourinho. Tottenham goalkeeper Lloris, who won the World Cup with Pogba in the summer, says the midfielder shows his worth with France and 'when it matters he is there' for United.
