Pogba is no longer Man Utd’s main man and maybe the new environment is perfect for club’s record signing to shine

PAUL POGBA spoke in the run up to this game of the ‘beauty’ of playing behind the Fab Four.

The form of Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Mason Greenwood and Bruno Fernandes has been something to behold.

Something any deep lying midfielder would want to see in front of them.

There was a time when Pogba returned to Old Trafford when those around him included Maroune Fellaini, Jesse Lingard, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Morgan Schneiderlin.

There was Ander Herrera too, great bloke but never deserving of the acclaim he generously received from the Old Trafford crowd.

Ahead of him Wayne Rooney was on the wane, Anthony Martial could not repeat his first season exploits, Marcus Rashford was just developing etc.

Basically it was not the side he is now part of.

The players that have remained are now better.

The ones that have gone would not get back in the side.

The main one who has arrived in Bruno Fernandes, scorer from the spot with the first against Villa in the 3-0 thumping, has drawn the fans' adoration.
