Paul Pogba could leave Manchester United this summer

And Southall, who was capped 92 times by Wales, would love to see his countryman playing at Old Trafford even if it led to Pogbas departure.He told talkSPORT: If I looked at Bale to Man United, it would be like having [Ryan] Giggs and [David] Beckham. Hes got genuine pace. Gareths in a great position, hes on 600,000-a-week.They [Real Madrid] have got to do something with him, they either play him or shove him off. If they shove him off theyve got to pay him off and he can pick where he goes. If youre saying hes part of the Pogba deal, Id rather have somebody that runs about every week, tries his best and turns up to produce magic than somebody who doesnt care.If Ive got a group of younger people underneath the first-team and Im saying look, youve got to try every week, and then they look at Pogba and go no you dont, hes 90 million quid, he doesnt try.And then youve got Bale who turns up all the time and does everything you want I know who Id rather have.
