Rio who won six Premier League titles during his 12-year reign at Old Trafford was impressed with the Frenchman against Fulham. Daily Mail quoting BT Sport reported that:

"I think today he [Pogba] was brilliant, he did both sides well, defended well but created chances, the big difference is that he is playing quick, not dilly-dallying on ball, the efficiency he is playing well is amazing,"

"I don't think Ole completely trusts him in the centre of midfield with the pace that some sides counter with, so he plays him out of those area, but in this game, they felt they would dominate and so he can allow him to do it. One of the best when he is in this form.

"He loves the game, [he] wants to showcase his talent. I saw Pogba grow up, I saw his talent first-hand, I think he is capable of playing in the midfield [alongside Fernandes], if he has the players around him he can do it."

His goal against the Cottagers means Pogba's tally for United this campaign has risen to five in 24 appearances across competitions and with his recent form, he could add more in the course of the season.

The victory ensured the Red Devils maintain their unbeaten run away from home in the Premier League this campaign.
