Former Manchester United defender, Rio Ferdinand, has criticized the clubs record buy, Paul Pogba, for posting a video of himself dancing on social media.
Pogba upload a short clip on Instagram, in which he could be seen with team-mate Jesse Lingard, dancing to Wizkids collaboration with Drake titled Come Closer.
Ferdinand says they have no business doing all that, when they are sixth in the Premier League and not playing in the Champions League.
He told BT Sport: Ive just seen a video of the lads dancing in the changing room. Im all for having a bit of fun on social media and stuff. But not when youre fifth [sic: sixth] in the league and youre not in the Champions League positions and youre fighting.
You havent won anything yet. Until youve won something, you cant go out and do stuff like that.
Im all for having fun and I think part of Pogbas appeal especially is that he is a happy, free spirit and I wouldnt want to take that away from him. But I think theres a time and getting the balance right.
If that comes out when youve won a cup final, Id be the first on to be pushing it out all over the place.
The way I see it, were fifth [sic] in the league, were fighting for a Champions League position, we havent got any silverware yet. Id want to keep myself out of the radar a little bit until I get to that point.
