Pogba meanwhile was not so highly rated and left for Juventus, where he has since become one of the best young players in the world.And Ferdinand believes midfielder Morrison, who is expected to leave Lazio this summer, is the best young talent he’s seen in football - although does not have the mentality to match.“Mentality, for me, outweighs talent,” Ferdinand told Copa90.“Look at Ravel Morrison, this guy was the best young kid I’ve ever seen in my life. Better than Joe Cole when he was a kid, he was doing circus tricks on a football pitch. “Ravel Morrison - I’ve never seen a guy look so comfortable on a football pitch. But you can’t just have one element without the other, you’ve got to have everything.“I’d love to see him have a chance again to come back and show everyone his talent. The kid was just different.“Pogba, [Adnan] Januzaj, [Jesse] Lingard, they used to look up to this boy. That’s what I’m saying, people don’t realise how good he was. Them boys used to look up to him like ‘woah, Ravel Morrison’.”</blockquote>
