"I remember when I first went to Inter Milan in Serie A and I was that kind of aggressive player and every time I made a tackle I was getting booked, that was frustrating.

"So Pogba now coming into a league where it is tough, where he can show what he's all about, I think is a perfect fit for him and for Man United.

"Who he plays alongside, whether it's [Michael] Carrick, [Morgan] Schneiderlin or [Bastian] Schweinsteiger - I don't know. But if United can get Pogba then that sends out the signal that we are really going for it this year."

Ince also believes former team-mate Ryan Giggs has made the right call in leaving the club.

He added: "For me, he has to go out and learn his trade, show that he can manage.

"It doesn't have to be a club that is going to spend millions to be successful. I suspect clubs around October and November time will come calling for Giggs.

"What he has to do is be prepared and get his right staff behind him. There is no doubt in my mind that he will be a top manger.

"It would have been easy for Ryan to stay at Manchester United and not have any pressures. Mourinho said it was a brave decision but I believe it was the right decision."
