Maradona, Gascoigne. Both way better than Pogba.

Pogba is 23, to compare his 3/4 years of professional football, the majority of which has been played in Italy and you have seen him play in the Champions League a handful of time, to a career of Maradona and Gazza is ridiculous.
At 23 Gazza had played 6 times for England and won nothing with Spurs or Newcastle, Pogba has played 38 times for France including a Euro final, won 4 Serie A's and been runner up in the Champs League.
You cant compare era's and you cant compare a players career with that of a 23 year old.
Compare like for like at 23
Highest
Pogba (100m 2016)
Intl caps 38
League titles 4
Champs League RU
Euro 16 RU
2nd highest
Bale (85.3m 2013)
Intl caps 38 (all in qualifying)
League cup runner up
3rd highest
C Ronaldo (80m 2009)
Intl caps 61

I'd suggest 100m is about right in todays market.
Is it silly money for United to spend? When you look at the commercial side, the millions of Pogba shirts that United will sell worldwide, probably not.
