Paul Pogba may have been given a new lease of life under manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer but that has not stopped one former Manchester United player criticizing the Frenchman.

Former United winger Andrei Kanchelskis also says their clash with Liverpool can be career defining for Pogba.

Kanchelskis wants to see Pogba lead United at Old Trafford.

He said: “Everybody is talking about Paul Pogba and how he performs in the big games. Now we will see against Liverpool, in a big derby against an excellent team. At the moment he is no leader. In the past we had the likes of Roy Keane and Steve Bruce, Cantona. These were leaders. At the moment Manchester United don’t have one.”

Pogba went missing under previous boss Jose Mourinho after falling out with the Portuguese boss.

But the 25-year-old has returned to his best form since Mourinho’s departure, something which was epitomised by his performance last Monday.

Pogba assisted one goal with a lovely cross and scored another as United cruised to a 2-0 win at Chelsea in the fifth round of the FA Cup.

He did, however, see red during a Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain and will sit out the return leg of a tie that United trail 2-0 as a result.

Pogba has found the back of the net on 14 occasions and assisted a further 10 strikes in 31 games across all competitions this season.

The Frenchman will get another chance to make a telling contribution in a heavyweight encounter on Sunday when Solskjaer’s side play host to title-chasing Liverpool, and Kanchelskis is looking for an £89 million asset to prove that he can be a talismanic presence.

United have not needed to rely on individuals over recent weeks, with a marked improvement having been made as a collective.

The likes of Pogba, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford have rediscovered their spark, but performance levels have been raised across the board from what was being delivered under Mourinho.

Eleven victories have been collected from 13 outings under Solskjaer and confidence will be brimming when old adversaries pay a visit to Old Trafford.
