Graeme Souness has once again taken aim at his favourite target, Manchester United's Paul Pogba.
He also had words for Romelu Lukaku, who finally got his wish after leaving United for Inter Milan in a deal worth £73million.
Writing in The Times, former Liverpool player and manager Souness said 'f I'm sitting in Manchester United's dressing room today, I'm glad Romelu Lukaku has gone and don't want Paul Pogba in there with me either if he's not up for the fight ahead and is also keen to get away.'
He also wrote: 'They're as responsible as anybody for the predicament United are in, yet have effectively said to their teammates: "It's everybody else's fault." "No, let's get it right, lads, you're part of the reason United are not in the Champions League this year."'
He also says Real Madrid are still after Paul Pogba 'on the cheap because they’re suspicious of his form, while Inter haggled over the asking price for Lukaku because he didn’t pull up any trees at United either.'
With Lukaku gone and Pogba perhaps also heading out the door, Souness believes that there is now pressure on Marcus Rashford to perform for United.
He is not convinced the 21-year-old is ready to handle the pressure, adding: 'he doesn’t have the penalty-box craft of, say, Sergio Aguero yet, but can learn that.
'It’s the same with Rashford’s finishing — sometimes it takes your breath away; sometimes he freezes when confronted by a goalkeeper.'

Jealously rear it ugly head again cause Sourness WAS a good player but a lously manager. A low life pundit. As a player his fee per week cannot compare Pogba' and to a certain extent Lukaku's weekly earnings. Taking cheap shot at them, he stoop to a low level knowing both will not know about his criticism. He should concentrate on Liverpool 's player instead. Why other teams' players?

Souness? Add r and it is Sourness. Ok bloke, we understand but not when the team is about to play then you come swinging. Waiting to see what magic Lukaku will perform at Inter first.

because pogba cost north of 90mill, has openly stated he wants to leave and caused a rift with his former manager mourinho. Pogba is a world class player, we all know that. he has the ability and potential to be the best CAM in the league but he hasn't shown any of that in a united shirt. This is partly due to his poor attitude off the pitch, i personally think united need him to go. Make a statement, united are a team with a fabulous history of how diligence can win and organisation can achieve success. No player is bigger than the club.
he is not performing well because of the poor quality around him.....the question that should be asked y did he perform well for juve and france? simple answer they have more quality

Too bad Sourness you won't get a chance to be in MU'S dressing room. stop dreaming. MU will be relegated by you. Don't "if I'm in United dressing room" I'd do this and that to Pogba and Lukaku. Dream on Sourness ha ha!
