Pogba has scored more goals than Kross and Modric, I doubt you watch all RM games to know if they are consistent, you're just assuming. And since when being older is better than being younger in football terms, since they're older it's an advantage for Pogba. You've lost it!
Modric and Kroos are the central core behind the massive goalscoring force in front of them.
They are consistantly performing at a high level.
Beeing older means you are further developped and at the peak of your career. For a midfielder, the experience is gold aswel.
Pogba gets alot of freedom to go forward relative to the position of the team, for a cm at juve. Much more then Modric and Kroos. So he'll get more chances yeah.
When i say pogba is younger, it means he has room for improvement, and consistancy and experience.
Pogba is worth more cause he is younger.
Kroos and Modric perform consistantly at a higher level then Pogba.
With aging, Pogba should improve dramatically as a player, but also ib terms of consistancy. When he does he might be better then Kroos and Modric. Probably will.
But that day, is not today.

Its not a question of Pogba benching Modric,Zach.Real Madrid discarded arguably their most important player last season in Di Maria just to fit another one of their 'flavor of the month' signings in James Rodriguez.
With Pogba seemingly starting to become the flavor of the season,who's to say they wont discard somebody like Modric just to fit him in ? Lets not forget Modric is nearing 30 and will be coming back after a long layoff.Pogba's popularity is growing at a rapid rate and he's arguably more marketable than some of their other stars such as Kroos,Modric maybe even James.
Actually,James dint have an extraordinary season last yr by any means for Monaco.He had a very reasonable season.Its the hype of the WC and his performances there which convinced Madrid to buy him.
Pogba might've been inconsistent in his displays but the more volleys and long rangers he scores,the more the hype machine is gonna roll on which will entice teams like Madrid to bid for him.
I think his star isnt shining enough yet. He needs to make more hype for madrid to become serious.
James, was talked about by the entire world following the world cup.
Pogba is talked about by people who closely watch football. But not everyone is.
