I always want the same thing. To be the best. To work.”  Pogba always knew that his transfer record would not stand for long, with asking prices having risen gradually over a number of years before PSG blew the top off the market.“I knew, that's how it is,” added the United midfielder “Today it's 100m, tomorrow it's 200m, the day after it'll be 300m.“A generation, then a generation, then a generation.“Twenty years ago, how much was the most expensive player? 60m? Now 60m is normal.” Pogba looks likely to remain firmly under the spotlight, regardless of how the transfer market shifts, and he claims to be ready to embrace a pressure which means more to others than it does himself. “From the inside? No. For myself, no,” he added when asked whether the focus on him has been difficult to handle.“But for everybody else, yes. “It took me a long time to get used to this. Because they didn't see me with the same eyes.“It was, like, crazy. And I just had to get used to this.”All eyes remain on Pogba at present, with France looking for him to rediscover his very best form heading into a 2018 World Cup campaign which sees them fancied to go far in Russia.</blockquote>
