Pogba will not make a difference in big games – Moyes not confident with Pogba’s ability




Former Manchester United manager, David Moyes, is not convinced Paul Pogba can make the difference for the Red Devils in big games.

Pogba who cost £89million last summer, has struggled to make an impact on his return to Old Trafford.

Although he has been tipped to show his worth this season, Moyes questions whether he can decide matches for Jose Mourinho’s team.

“I think he’s a top player, but I don’t know if he’s a player who completely makes a difference for Manchester United,” Moyes said, speaking to ESPN FC.

“I think that over the years Manchester United have had players like Cantona, even Ryan Giggs, people who are special players.

“I don’t know if Pogba’s that, I think he’s a good player, I think he’ll add to Manchester United, but will he make the difference? Is he someone who will score the goal at really important stages in games or make the key pass? I’m not sure about that.

Tennis: Andy Murray's Barcelona Open run ended by Dominic Thiem Dominic Thiem recorded the biggest win of his career as he ended world No 1 Andy Murray's hopes of reaching the final of the Barcelona Open. Murray, who entered the tournament to get more matches under his belt as he works his way back from an elbow injury, has gradually been improving over the course of the week, but was unable to cope with the powerful young Austrian in a brutal battle. Fourth seed Thiem notched his third British scalp of the week after knocking out Kyle Edmund and Dan Evans, and sealed a famous 6-2 3-6 6-4 win in two hours and 15 minutes to reach Sunday's final where he could meet nine-time winner Rafael Nadal. Top-ranked Murray returned to action last week in Monte Carlo after more than a month on the sidelines but, having beaten Gilles Muller in his opening match, lost to Albert Ramos-Vinolas. He gained revenge over the Spaniard on Friday, but his hopes of claiming his fourth ...

Casillas wants Buffon to win Champions League - but not this year

The Porto goalkeeper is hopeful that the Italian will one day win Europe's top club competition but doesn't want him to achieve it against Real Madrid Former Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas feels Gianluigi Buffon deserves to win the Champions League, but he will still be cheering for his boyhood team when they take on Juventus on Saturday. Buffon has won numerous trophies throughout his illustrious career, but Champions League glory has evaded the veteran shot stopper until now. The 39-year-old lost the final in 2003 and 2015 and he will be hoping it is third time lucky in Cardiff this weekend. "Had the opponent not been Real Madrid, I would have wanted Buffon to win the Champions League with all my heart, he deserves it," Casillas told La Gazzetta dello Sport. "I obviously support Madrid, but Buffon's career should not come to an end without him having won the Champions League. He has won almost everything, except this one and it is weigh...

Anthony Joshua stops Wladimir Klitschko after an epic fight at Wembley.

Anthony Joshua climbed off the canvas to produce a dramatic late stoppage victory over Wladimir Klitschko in an epic heavyweight world title fight at Wembley. The 27-year-old appeared to be on the brink of his first professional defeat when he was floored in the sixth round, but staged a severe onslaught to halt Klitschko in the 11th round. Joshua successfully defended his IBF title, while also claiming the WBA 'super' belt, but there could be calls for a rematch after a classic heavyweight unification clash in front of a record 90,000 crowd at the national stadium. Klitschko had overcome a heavy knockdown in the fourth and the former unified champion defied questions about his advancing age until he finally wilted to defeat after being floored twice more. A fiery pyrotechnic show was part of Joshua's ring walk, but he was unable to display his explosive power in a tentative first round as Klitschko kept him at bay with probing jabs. Klitschko landed his straight r...
