Paul Pogba's rise to fame has been well documented over the past two years; consecutive league titles with Juventus has moulded the Frenchman into one of the most dominant midfield generals in world football and he now faces a summer of transfer speculation as Europe's top clubs chase Pogba's services. His consistent brilliance has been rewarded with numerous accolades, including a spot in the majority of FIFA squads. Pogba received an incredible eight upgrades over the course of FIFA 14, staggering when you consider how good his original 79 overall was, including stats such as 86 shot power, 87 strength, 83 long shots and 82 long passing among many more. However, it must be remembered that Pogba is still only 21 years old and EA have repeatedly made the mistake of bumping up the overall of players a tad too early, take Fellaini for example, a shadow of his former self at Old Trafford but an unbeatable tank on FIFA 14. Therefore it may be slightly more practical to give Pogba another year of growth before EA start handing out 85-90 overalls, of which a limited few can boast.
