He was the leader in the dressing room. It's what Didier Deschamps, and the french players said..and the documentary showed it too.
On the pitch, he was the guy doing the transition. Deschamps style is basic as feck. It's was Pogba lauching Mbappé. France won because of them...
He was involved in the 2 goals against Australia ( his pass forced the defender to give away the pen and he scored the winning goal ), he also created the winning goal against Peru after he won back a ball and made a fantastic pass to Giroud who would have scored if Mbappé wasn't an opportunist, he didn't play against Denmark because he had a yellow and Deschamps didn't want to risk to miss his leader and playmaker against Argentina. Without him, the french NT was awful against Denmark because they can't create anything without the best playermaker of the world cup
Against Argentina and Uruguay he worked hard while still spraying passes like prime Pirlo
:
Against Belgium he bullied Mousa Dembele, KDB and Fellaini while still spraying passes. A masterclass proving that he's the best midfielder in the world in the biggest stage
Against Croatia he was the unofficial MOTM and scored the most important goal, closing the game and the passe to Mbappe before his goal was the pass of the tournament.
Pogba world cup was flawless. Stop hating, it's pathetic.
