Buffon ridicules Ferguson over Pogba

Juventus and Italy goalkeeper, Gianluigi Buffon, has ridiculed Sir Alex Ferguson for letting Paul Pogba leave Manchester United.
Pogba has become one of world football’s most coveted midfielders at Juventus after leaving Old Trafford on a free transfer three years ago.
Now legendary Italy goalkeeper Buffon has taken the brave step of mocking Ferguson and United for letting him depart.
“I have been in football many years but the decision of Sir Alex Ferguson and Manchester United to not play Pogba and let him leave is one of the strangest I have ever seen,” said Buffon ahead of his side’s Champions League semi-final second leg with Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.
The Gunners are set to capitalise on United’s stalling talks with the Borussia Dortmund star, attempting to force through a £21 million deal.
“After just a few training sessions, we saw how good he was. It cannot have been the same player they saw in Manchester – we thought they, may be, needed glasses.
“I have never seen a player who is so good at his age, he is so strong, so technically gifted, has exceptional all-round play.
Real Madrid trail 2-1 in their UEFA Champions League semi-final with Juventus with the second leg at the Bernabeu.
“Pogba can do things only Pogba can, similar to Messi and Ronaldo. United let one of the top players in the world leave but that has been only good news for us.”
Buffon feels it will take more than the world record fee of £86 million that Real Madrid handed over to Tottenham two years ago for Gareth Bale to land France midfielder Pogba.
“Of course, he will be linked with the teams with big money like Chelsea, Real Madrid, PSG and City, but at the moment he is achieving dreams at Juventus,” said Buffon.
“If any team wanted to buy him I would feel sure they would have to break the world record fee.”
He may be a great goalkeeper, but Buffon is fortunate that Ferguson is now out of the public spotlight as a manager after making such remarks.
