He said: "One example is Thierry Henry. When he scored a goal before, everybody was like, 'F*****g hell, many goals, he's never happy'.
"One day I tell Thierry, 'Why?'. He said, 'It's the way I celebrate my goal. I know people don't like this, but I'm like this. I can't change this.
"Pogba, he's like this, he can't change this. We accept this - it's Pogba.
"For me, it means sometimes you don't respect your opponent, you know?
"It's frustrating. I'm fronting Pogba. I want to tell him, 'Listen, do this in the dressing room, not now. It's frustrating. You win 4-0, you're dancing in front of me."
The Frenchman confirmed he once kicked Brazil legend Ronaldinho for doing something similar, Makelele laughed, adding: "I have a lot of history, not just Ronaldinho.
"It's football - sometimes you need to explain to the player in front of you, give a little bit of respect, also."
