How good was Graeme Souness as a footballer

For those of us who didn’t watch him play...What company would you put him in? How would you describe him as a midfielder and are there and moments, attributes or examples that stand out for you?

Pogba > Souness

Players like Souness cannot make it in the modern game. Take away their thuggery and they're average, or above average in the case of Souness. People talk about Keane being a thug but when you look at clips of Souness, it just pales in comparison.

Souness is obsessed with Pogba because it gives his life some meaning and Pogba attracts a lot of attention. Souness enjoys the reflected attention he gets so has to keep bringing Pogba up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Likewise Pogba would be destroyed back in souness’s day. I would swap an in prime souness for Pogba anytime, hell I’d pay as well- far, far more effective player than Pogba will ever be.

And that’s from utd fan (to quote Barry)

Still, souness needs to pipe down about Pogba and move on.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pogba is a big lad, I think he'd be able to take Souness.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Big lad, but a bit soft. Souness would eat him for breakfast. A Scotsman vs a Frenchman, only going to be one winner there, and it won’t be the cheese eating surrender monkey, it will be the psychopath from the land of begbie...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pogba grew up in a rough neighbourhood. He'll nut that Scottish ponce. Souness just peeved Pogba is better and more handsome than him. That and his dance moves are what Souness envies.

Always makes me smile this. Not even Souness at his worst.

I've never got the obsession with the yer das on ja606 and fantasising about how their favourite Mark Noble-lite midfielder from the 20th century would batter Pogba in a scrap. Pogba is 6"3, is a kickboxer, moulded in the Parisian sewers, the modern athlete. Yer da's fave midfielder is a 5"9 midget who probably sank 5 pints before and after playing drunk plumbers on muddy pitches in front of semi-racist hooligans in 1986

Souness: 'What? Ref, look at what he did! He's got mud on my sock! Look at it! There!"
