Chiellini said that Juventus are missing the midfielder who of late has been in good form for United.
"Pogba was our Usain Bolt - he allowed us to play in a certain way. Now we've changed. We're working on it and (manager Massimiliano) Allegri is not an idiot," Chiellini added.
LeBron James
"We've changed players and now we are a side like any other," the defender said.
"We're not used to losing and, in addition to this, we've lost a player like Pogba who is the LeBron James of football and, even when you didn't notice him, he was impressive," the 32-year-old said.
