Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer feels Paul Pogba is incomparable in today's football.

Pogba is available for the visit of Liverpool.

When it was mentioned that Pogba was an unused substitute in the first match against Liverpool this season (a 3-1 United defeat), a smiling Solskjaer said: "He will play now!

"He is a top top player that I have always liked, since I saw him play as a kid.

"He is a World Cup winner, he is a leader in the dressing room, on the pitch as well. He wants the ball all the time.

"My idea was to get him playing to the best of his abilities. I thought, 'he is an attacking midfielder'.

"You saw PSG man-marked him (in the Champions League), other teams probably will.

"I don't know if Liverpool will. If they do, it may leave space for others - we need to be ready for that."

Asked how Pogba compares to other players of his type, Solskjaer added: "There are different types of midfielders but, in his mould, I don't think there is anyone near - with his physical presence, he can score goals, his close technique.

"He can also spray passes when he is sitting in midfield - I don't think that is his best position, but he can do that as well."
