As part of his comment about the Frenchman, van Persie spoke about the treatment of Paul Pogba, which he feels has been harsh on the World Cup winner.

It is safe to say that United fans have been split by this opinion of them.

There are a section who feel that he has completely missed the point, as their issues with Pogba centre around his mentality and application, rather than anything to do with what he is contributing in front of goal.

Pogba has already missed 20 league games this season with ankle issues, which some fans think it is natural to get frustrated about.

Is life under the Glazers really that bad? Maybe this quiz will change your minds, Man United fans...

One fan claimed they would "settle for a bit of passion and commitment", while another says he needs to "shut his agent up".

However, there are some who agree with the Dutchman, and feel that Pogba should be given a bit more of a break.

They have shown their appreciation for van Persie, stating that he "is an intellectual" and "knows ball", with one even stating that he is "the only ex-United player talking sense".

The fact that he scored 13 Premier League goals and assisted nine offers an indication of the impact that he can have on the pitch.

Meanwhile, Man United fans are buzzing about the idea of seeing one starlet play with Mason Greenwood.
