Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba had a fantastic start to the new Premier League campaign with four stunning assists against Leeds United on Saturday.
The Frenchman’s future has been a regular topic of speculation this summer, having recently snubbed a new contract with the Red Devils beyond June 2022.
Despite this, he remains an integral part of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s plans, and he had a superb outing against Leeds in the season opener at Old Trafford.
Pogba drifted between a midfield and a left wing position. He showed his quality on the ball with his assists coming from different weight of passes.
He ended up with four assists in the superb 5-1 triumph, thereby joining a set of Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur stars, who previously achieved the feat.
Only Dennis Bergkamp, Jose Antonio Reyes, Cesc Fabregas, Santi Cazorla (all Arsenal), Emmanuel Adebayor and Harry Kane (both Tottenham) had done so in the past.
