Paul Pogba has named Cristiano Ronaldo as the best striker in football history.

The Frenchman gave the verdict after Ronaldo’s hat-trick in their dramatic 3-2 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.

“He [Ronaldo] has never been a problem. You have the best striker in history in our team, he cannot be a problem. Today the performance from him and all the team was very brilliant.”

Referencing the 4-1 defeat, Pogba added to Sky Sports: “Ronaldo was brilliant. I think that’s all we needed – a reaction. We scored beautiful goals. Even when we conceded a goal, we came back and scored again. The mentality was there again today.

“Everybody knows Cristiano – there’s no need to talk about him. That’s what he does. He didn’t play in the last game, but he comes back and scores three goals. Everybody’s happy,” BBC Sport.
