Sheringham: Would Pogba get a game in Man Utd Treble winners?

Teddy Sheringham says Paul Pogba would've found a place in Manchester United's 1999 Treble winners.

Speaking to Stadium Astro, the former striker was in little doubt about Pogba's ability to slot into that famous team.

"I think he would because he is a very talented player"

However, Sheringham, 52, believes that the French midfielder wouldn't be selected on talent alone and would have had to tailor his game and become more of a team player.

"He would have been brought back down to earth at the right times when he's... not stepping out of line because you're not stepping out of line, you're just not doing the right things at the right times"

"That's what made our team so good. We did all the right things at the right times.

"There's a lot of players who do the wrong things constantly. You have to do the right things at the right times for you to be part of a team."
