Robin Van Persie has reminded Paul Pogba to get his game together

‘I do think it’s important for Pogba himself [to know his position], because he’s a world-class player,’ Van Persie told Optus Sport.

‘In my opinion he has it all – he can give assists, he can dribble, he’s strong, he’s fast, he can score. ‘But I think for him, for the coach, for everyone, it’s important to choose a position. Choose where you think and where the coach thinks he plays the best football for the team.

‘I would play him not as a defensive midfielder and not as a No. 10 but in between, so a No. 8. ‘So he still has his freedom, he’s not judged on 20-plus goals a season, if he plays there and scores 10-plus goals, if he makes assists, everyone will look different at him then. ‘But it needs to be clear for everyone, if he’s a No.8, judge him on that.’

Asked what he would say to Pogba in the dressing room, Van Persie replied: ‘It is vital if you are a forward player that you have that connection. That you know if the midfielder has the ball that it can come, it can arrive. ‘Then out of 10 balls, not all 10 of them will arrive, but even if three or four arrive.

‘It’s like the other week we were playing in Vincent Kompany’s game, I just knew when [Paul] Scholes has the ball I know I’m on, when [Ryan] Giggs has the ball I’m running, it’s just that feeling between footballers you have, or you don’t.
