A former Real Madrid and Liverpool star feels that Manchester United's Paul Pogba would be one of the best players in world football if he played under someone like Pep Guardiola or Jurgen Klopp.
The Frenchman has endured a difficult time in England since returning to United in 2016, but while many believe the player has an attitude problem, others feel Jose Mourinho's tactics limit and even stifle his game.
Michael Owen shares that opinion, saying recently that he feels it is Pogba's manager who should be taking a lot of the blame for the midfielder's underwhelming performances.
"I think the manager has to take some of the blame – the system, the way he plays," Owen told BT Sport.
"If he (Pogba) was playing under a Guardiola or a Klopp or someone like that, I think we'd be looking at certainly one of the best few players in the world, but at the moment we can't say that.
"I'm of the opinion that he is totally world-class playing in a certain team in a certain way."
Due to his reportedly poor relationship with Mourinho, Pogba has often been linked with a move away from the Red Devils over the past year, with teams such as Juventus and FC Barcelona said to be interested in his signature.
