Gara-gara warna rambut dan perilaku pemain Manchester United, Paul Pogba, pada derbi Manchester, dua legenda Setan Merah, Rio Ferdinand dan Gary Neville, berselisih paham.

Manchester United sukses menumbangkan Manchester City dengan skor 3-2 di Stadion Etihad dalam derbi Manchester, Sabtu (7/4/2018).

Paul Pogba menjadi aktor penting bagi Iblis Merah lewat dua gol penyama kedudukan pada menit ke-53 dan 55'.

Sebelum laga, Pogba dicerca eks kapten Manchester United, Gary Neville.

Beberapa saat sebelum laga, Gary Neville mengkritik tindakan Paul Pogba yang mengecat rambutnya dengan warna biru muda, warna kebesaran Manchester City.

Mengingat krusialnya laga tersebut, Gary Neville menilai hal tersebut merupakan tindakan konyol.

"Saya selalu berpikir jika Anda bijak, Anda tidak akan menarik perhatian ketika segala sesuatu tidak berjalan sesuai keinginan Anda. Pogba tidak berpikir seperti itu," kata Neville kesal, dicuplik BolaSport.com dari Sky Sports.

"Datang ke sini dengan rambut biru hari ini, (jika) menang, tidak apa-apa, (jika) kalah, itu akan dibicarakan selamanya oleh penggemar Man City dan Man United. Ini tidakan konyol," ucapnya.

Rekan setim Neville di Maanchester United, Rio Ferdinand, memberikan komentar berseberangan.

“Mengetahui Paul, dia ingin dibicarakan sebagai pemain hebat, tapi gaya rambutnya yang mewah dan gerakan tariannya terlalu sering membayangi penampilannya," tulis Ferdinand di akun Instagram pribadinya.

“Rambut yang mencolok dan terlihat menikmati setiap bagian kehidupan adalah cara Paul Pogba dan itu adalah pilihannya, jadi itu harus dihormati. Yang harus dia lakukan adalah memastikan untuk terus memproduksi penampilan baik dan gol seperti yang kita lihat melawan City - yang akan menjadi percakapan tentang Pogba daripada hal-hal lain," tulisnya lagi.

 

Beaten by your rivals at their ground & to then have to sit there and watch them lift the Premier League trophy - all of this while them home fans laugh at you, there downtrodden, embarrassed, worthless, a beaten man/team. That is the nightmare the night before the derby game many of the players if not all would of had. That very picture would almost certainly of gone through their minds at some point leading up to that game. So to see the way the @manchesterunited team came back from 2 goals down & it could have been more had City finished their chances, signifies to me that that these guys really do care about playing for the shirt and how desperate they were not to allow that nightmare to become a reality! That is the type of pressure these games bring on - can you as an individual get rid of those terrible images and concentrate on the job in hand or will you allow yourself to be drowned in such negativity that you can hardly warm up without it being on your mind constantly and your warm up is 25mins of bad touches and anxiety! This can I add, all before the actual game begins - Mental warfare! So well done to the boys for dealing with all that especially after going 2 goals down (imagine the panic). Lastly...... @paulpogba was the talk before the game and he went on to make sure he was the talk after it (for the reasons he so desperately wants them to be). Knowing Paul, he will want to be talked about as a great player but his extravagant hairstyles and dance moves have too often overshadowed his performances. Flashy hair and being seen to enjoy every bit of life is just the way Paul Pogba is and that’s his choice so it must be respected. All he has to do is make sure he keeps producing performances & goals like we saw vs City and that will be the conversation with him rather than the other stuff. He was let free or had to play in a more advanced role due to the scoreline which allowed him to do what he does best - less defensive responsibility and allowed to attack like he learnt and did at Juve with the results we saw in the second half at City. That’s the pressure he puts on himself but one I’m sure he can deal with. #MUFC #POGBA

Pogba memang tengah menjadi sorotan, bahkan sebelum laga kontra Manchester City.

Hal tersebut terjadi karena penampilan Pogba yang angin-anginan, sampai membuat Jose Mourinho memainkan pemain muda Scott McTominay ketimbang dirinya.
