He’s right, though. Most footballer’s football knowledge is limited because they aren’t consumed by it outside the workplace like fans are.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I bet most Liverpool fans don't even remember who their last league title winning captain was.

I'd still rather have Souness in my team any day ,than Pogba .
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t think anyone would be stupid enough to disagree a peak souness over Pogba any day.
Don’t really get what the problem is between them, but I do t watch sounded much as a pundit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's simple really. Souness doesnt beat around the bush and says what he really thinks in regards to Pogba, as many in here do including United fans.
Pogba retaliated, Souness retaliated etc etc.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pogba didn't retaliate.
He said, he didn't know who Souness was but he heard he was a great player. A GREAT PLAYER.
He acknowledged him as a great player... why the feck would anybody born and partly raised in France know about Souness? He's not Gazza!
The only reason he's even relevant now is because of Sky Sports.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Probably the same way footballers from the UK know the top French players in the decade or two before they started playing. They played for the top clubs, winning the top trophies. Souness won the European Cup three times, for example, playing for one of the biggest clubs in the world. He then played in Italy.
If you think Pogba didn't know who Souness was then you're as thick as he is.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm only a few years younger than Pogba and I had no idea who Souness was until a couple of years ago and even now I only know him because of Sky Sports.
I know nothing about his career. Don't even know who he played for.

...........................
Please point them in my direction to be educated, that is a good chap.
Why is Souness obsessed by Pogba? It seems that Pogba preoccupies his every waking thought.
If I was Pogba I would just keep mocking the senile old. Send him even more over the edge.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Look yourself. It’s not difficult to find - nor comprehend that some people (likely born in last 30yrs) think Pogba is/was superior.
I also don’t think he’s obsessed. Often when Graham speaks out on Sky, it’s because the conversation is about Pogba. Does Graham stick the boot in more? Yes - but thats more down to the fact that the likes of Redknapp wouldn’t dare.
Pogba has been a laughing stock ever since he came back to United.
I see Carragher thought Pogbas comment about a player who played 30 yrs ago in a foreign league to him was below the belt
--------------------
Yes but this is Graeme Souness, European football icon and global superstar. It is absurd that a French guy half his age doesnt know who he is.
No that's not a fact. What is a fact is he was a multi trophy winning captain of one of the best sides of his era, who won the European Cup three times. List the players who have won the European Cup three times and see what company he is in. Just because you're football knowledge is limited doesnt make what you believe a fact.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So every member of that team is still relevant because they won the European Cup 3 times?
All active footballers hate them 'analists' the most, talking shijte all the time, while not knowing half their stuff.
Surprisingly some of them forget that feel after ending up in the same seat. Souness, Caraggher, RVP are eager to lash out, but are so so quick to feel offended when some players are no pushovers and fight back.
And there's honestly no partisanship here, the two biggest hypocrites we've recently seen are Phil Neville (armchair manager who's quick to burn other coaches down got found out and destroyed at Valencia) and Mourinho (criticizing smaller teams parking the bus while he has PTSS of pundits/coaches calling him out for that).
Lets face it, no one of the younger generation gives a fook what pundits are talking about, unless you're a Cruijff, Guardiola or Fergusson talking purely about football because it will help them improve.
It is true. Loads of footballers have admitted as such. Even now many don’t even watch football, let alone know the history of the game.

Here's to more seasons of being a laughing stock...
Storm in a tea cup really.
Good for Pogba for biting back I think. If a pundit gives it then he has to take it.
Luka Modriฤ has won 4 CL’s. I doubt anybody will give a crap who he was in 35 years time.

People need to separate what the players do in their private time to what they do at work (as long as that does affect their work or a crime).

Keita can't be considered better than Pogba as he's always injured. Players like that can turn out as Anderson, Phil Jones or in some rare cases Ledley King. Keita is looking like he will be more of a Phil Jones - a player with promise but never realised due to injuries.

Leave him to sit and stew.
The names I'd expect Europe to know about in that terrific Liverpool teams of 70s and 80s would be Keegan, Rush and Dalglish rather than Souness. You can't judge a young Frenchman of disrespect just because he doesn't know everything about the game's history.
