"That's one big thing, he has played a lot of games at the top level There is no doubting he is a fantastic footballer, but at Man United, it just doesn't seem to be working at the moment. "Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has gone into Man United and got some players working, got some players playing. Lindelof looks a different player now. He is first on the team-sheet in that back four now. Pogba, the most influential players in the Premier League since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer went there, barring probably [Heung-min] Son at Tottenham. "Marcus Rashford looks like the player that everyone believed he could be for United, but Sanchez he hasn't been able to unlock that code yet, but you can't expect a manager to go in an unlock every code on every player. He's done what he can at the moment, but Sanchez is still searching for that form." While Sanchez has continued to flounder since Mourinho's sacking, United's record signing Pogba has flourished under Solskjaer's leadership, with Ferdinand suggesting the critics who wrote off the French World Cup winner were misguided. "It wasn't about him not trying hard enough," said Ferdinand, as he reflected on a first half of the season that saw Pogba lose his way after persistent reports of a bust-up with manager Jose Mourinho. "Play the players in their best positions and you get the best results, simple as that. Everyone says he can't defend, but people always look for what he can't do. Why not look for what he can do. "He is great at starting passages of play, he's great at playing that final pass and the asset for a goal, he's great at getting on the end of things. That's what he's doing now. If you compare how times he runs into the box to how many times he did that before Ole Gunnar Solskjaer arrived, it would be very different. "That tells you why he getting goals, why he is getting shots on target, why he is getting assists, why he is being effective in the final third. It's not rocket science what he's doing now. "Paul Pogba is a leader and he is going to warm into that role in the coming years under the guidance of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer."</blockquote>
