Checking against the GA criteria

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   Usually citations are discouraged from the lead per WP:LEADCITE unless it's citing controversial information. However given the length of the article, I think this should be fine

   " while Mathias plays for Dutch side Sparta Rotterdam and the Guinean national team" - why not 'club'?

   "On 6 June 2015, Pogba started for Juventus in the 2015 UEFA Champions League Final as the club were defeated 3–1 by Barcelona at Berlin's Olympiastadion" - merge this with a paragraph

   "Pogba finished the under-16 campaign with 17 appearances and one goal." - needs a citation

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   No original research found.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

Ref 13, ref 48, ref 103 and ref 104 are all dead. If these can be archived or deleted if they're not valuable then this article should pass. I decided to do a shorter and more pointy review with this one as with the others, the prose is spotless. On hold JAGUAR  14:00, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

@Jaguar: Thanks, issues addressed. Vaselineeeeeeee^★★★ 14:36, 23 November 2016 (UTC) Actually, one sec, didn't see your comments above about adding a couple sources. Vaselineeeeeeee^★★★ 14:59, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

Now addressed. Didn't need the "a finished the under-16 campaign with 17 appearances and one goal." not necessary for under-16 Vaselineeeeeeee^★★★ 15:03, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for that! With all of those issues out of the way this is ready to be promoted. JAGUAR  15:07, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
