This is Paul Pogba like you've never seen him before.In one of his most open and honest conversations, Pogba sits down with Rio Ferdinand to talk through the moments that defined his career and the personal struggles that shaped the person behind the player.From growing up at Manchester United's academy alongside (and fighting) Ravel Morrison, to learning from legends like Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and Rio himself, Pogba reveals what it really took to survive in one of football's most demanding environments - and why he felt he had to leave when he did.He opens up on the reality of his second spell at Manchester United, the pressure of his world-record transfer fee, the lack of clarity or plan for his role in the team, and why he believes the environment at the club made it difficult to succeed.Pogba reveals that he did not know who Graeme Souness was until Rio gave him some detail on his career and achievements within the game which prompts a fascinating discussion about how he felt the media misunderstood him.But this conversation goes far deeper than football.Pogba speaks candidly about family issues, betrayal, and the emotional toll it took on him and those closest to him - including the impact it had on his mother. He also reflects on his time away from the game, the challenges of being out of football, and what it's been like watching from the sidelines with his children asking when he'll return.There are also powerful insights into his career highs — winning the World Cup with France, his relationship with stars such as Kylian Mbappé and how players like Andrea Pirlo, N'Golo Kanté and Antonio Conte helped elevate his game to another level.Plus:Why consistency of position is everything at the elite levelHis honest thoughts on Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo, Kevin De Bruyne, Scott McTominay and modern midfield rolesThe truth about his relationship with José MourinhoAnd why he will never change who he isThis is a rare, unfiltered look at one of football's most talked-about players - in his own words.

Plus, we analyze how his partnership with Scott McTominay and Stanislav Lobotka has created one of the most balanced midfields in European football. If you want to know how to dominate a pitch with both a crunching tackle and a silk-smooth carry, this is the masterclass for you.

Scott McTominay left a struggling Manchester United to become Serie A's Most Valuable Player, win the Scudetto for Napoli and be nominated for the Ballon D'Or - all in one year. Was he this good all along? Is he finally getting the respect he always deserved?This episode of Football Daily, hosted by football writer and Copa 90 presenter Eugene Noble, goes right back to the start of Scott McTominay's incredible story and explores the making of McTominay: How he grew from the Man Utd academy, to being taken under the wing of José Mourinho and performing on the international stage.We speak to the likes of Paul McGuinness and James Weir, coaches and players who knew him at the academy, as well as podcasters, pundits and fans such as Jay Motty, Joe Fischetti and Umberto Bernardo, who have tracked his career from Old Trafford to the Neapolitan sun.We also hear from football journalist Mina Rzouki about how Scott has transformed under Antonio Conte, as well as Scottish Legend and commentator Pat Nevin about how he is becoming a symbol for the nation in the blue shirt of Scotland. We even speak to Scotland head coach Steve Clarke about Scott's crucial role to the international team and a conversation that sparked Scott's career back into life.In 2026, McTominay is facing his biggest season yet: Napoli have a title to defend. They're back in the Champions League. And Scotland will attend their first World Cup since 1998. So, the question isn't just how Scott McTominay got here - it's how much higher can he go?

#938 | Ed and Isabel sift through the international break - an actual competitive one, for a change, instead of the usual collection of meaningless jog-arounds. There's chat about who impressed - such as Scott McTominay's Scotland heroics, Bruno stat-padding for fun, and a few others looked vaguely competent for their countries. The mood dips with a look at United Women, who've hit a bump in recent games, raising familiar questions about depth, investment, and the club's mixedpriorities. Ed and Isabel dig into Steven Torpey's academy comments, the gap between pipeline and first team, and why the idea of giving young players a chance at United feels more theoretical right now. There's also a look at Rúben Amorim's tweaks - signs of progress, signs of stubbornness, and the sense that the January window might be held together by crossed fingers. The pod closes with an Everton preview: a winnable match that has to go United's way given that European qualification isn't optional; it's the minimum. Chapters 00:00 Introduction 00:18 International Break – Real Stakes for Once 02:20 McTominay: Neapolitan Goal Machine 06:12 Qualifiers, Steve McClaren, Accidental Nostalgia 08:54 United Women's Recent Dip 11:02 Steven Torpey, the Academy, Pipeline Problems 17:45 Amorim's Progress and Tactical Shifts 29:51 Squad Depth, January Speculation 34:39 Everton Preview If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

Rio sits down with Joel after a third straight victory for Ruben Amorim's Manchester United and pays special attention to the redemption of midfielder Casemiro.He addresses the “highly disrespectful” comments made about the Brazilian by Jamie Carragher and says that Kobbie Mainoo could learn a lot from the way Casemiro has forced his way back into the team - even with his stellar career and trophy cabinet.Scott McTominay is another example of a player who is playing with renewed confidence so Rio discusses a time where his confidence was negatively influenced by his manager and how that translated into matches and training.Danny Welbeck is currently England's best striker behind Harry Kane - hear why Rio would put him on the plane for the World Cup in the summer after a Premier League season in which Rio predicts Arsenal will win the title - hear why he believes Mikel Arteta's side has the advantage over Man City and Liverpool.Arne Slot has been questioned about his brutally honest comments about his Liverpool side's ability to defend various tactics that opponents have implemented against them and says any excuses made are “poor”.Plus, to kick off a campaign with our partners Craftd that's all about people ‘mastering their craft' Rio and Joel discuss the player in the Premier League who has worked hard over the last 12 months for mastering theirs and pays credit to their diligence and professionalism.#ManUtd #Casemiro #JamieCarragher #KobbieMainoo #RubenAmorim #ScottMcTominay #DannyWelbeck #Arsenal #PremierLeague #TitleRace #ArneSlot #Craftd #RioFerdinand #FootballPodcast #WorldCupSubscribe: http://bit.ly/15QO9WERio Ferdinand Presents: rioferdinandpresents.comRio Ferdinand Presents Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents Twitter/X: https://x.com/RioMeetsRio Ferdinand Presents Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Twitter/X: https://x.com/rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RioFerdinandOfficialRio Ferdinand TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdy5Subscribe: http://bit.ly/15QO9WERio Ferdinand Presents: rioferdinandpresents.comRio Ferdinand Presents Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents Twitter/X: https://x.com/RioMeetsRio Ferdinand Presents Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Twitter/X: https://x.com/rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RioFerdinandOfficialRio Ferdinand TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdy5 Hosted on Acast.

Scott McTominay left a struggling Man United to become Serie A's Most Valuable Player, win the Scudetto for Napoli and be nominated for the Ballon D'Or - all in one year. Was he this good all along? Is he finally getting the respect he always deserved? This episode of Football Daily, hosted by football writer and Copa 90 presenter Eugene Noble, goes right back to the start of Scott's incredible story and explores the making of McTominay: How he grew from the Man Utd academy, to being taken under José Mourinho's wing, to performing on the international stage. We speak to coaches and players who knew him at the academy, like Paul McGuinness and James Weir, as well as podcasters, pundits and fans like Jay Motty, Joe Fischetti and Umberto Bernardo, who have tracked his career from Old Trafford to the Neapolitan sun. We also hear from football journalists like Mina Rzouki about how Scott has transformed under Antonio Conte, as well as Scottish Legend and commentator Pat Nevin about how he is becoming a symbol for the nation in the blue shirt of Scotland. We even speak to Scotland head coach Steve Clarke about Scott's crucial role to the international team and a conversation that sparked Scott's career back into life. In 2026, McTominay is facing his biggest season yet: Napoli have a title to defend. They're back in the champions league. And Scotland have their world cup qualifier campaign already underway. So the question isn't just how Scott McTominay got here - it's how much higher can he go?
