Pogba's back! Man Utd ace flourishes alongside Fernandes to spare De Gea's blushes

Oct 19, 2021
The Frenchman only came off the bench 60 minutes into Friday's 1-1 draw with Tottenham but he made an instant impact by winning a penalty

Manchester United is back, and Paul Pogba is back.

They said that a week of football is very long, so 100 days is almost endless. After more than three months of no competitive action, the Red Devils finally returned to the Premier League against Tottenham on Friday night.

Before the game started, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was surrounded by many question marks. Can they move forward in their 11 undefeated games, and more importantly, can Bruno Fernandes and Pogba play on the same side?

Manchester United fans haven’t seen the pair’s moves from the first whistle-players with knees bent to support them in support of Black Lives Matter-but they are seen as exciting potential partners for half an hour when the tourists from When they came back to Tottenham Hotspur, they deserved a 1-1 draw.

The midfield duo of Fred and Scott McTominay means that when Manchester United enjoyed a fortune in the camp against Jose Mourinho, Pogba who has just started the game must watch the first hour outside the court.

At first, the visitors seemed completely unaffected by the rest. The pass was full of confidence and crispness, and the current man Marcus Rashford was only opened for Hugo Lorris's foot.

As one of the 300 people allowed to enter the stadium said: "You will not know that the Spurs are home!"

It's hard to disagree. Manchester United is looking at the house, while Tottenham appear panic.

However, the host took the lead in 27 minutes, and Manchester United can only blame themselves.

Steven Bergwijn blows Harry Maguire awkwardly and easily, then defeats David de Gea with a shot that the goalkeeper should have saved .

Indeed, the former United captain Roy Keane attacked De Gea in the half-time analysis of Sky Sports. Although Pogba remained silent, the French sat On the bench, he showed a markedly depressed body.

When Solskjaer's team tried to respond, they shouted "penetrate and run behind them", but despite all this, they tried to find the Spurs sitting in such a deep space.

Therefore, it is not surprising to see Pogba warm up at halftime and cheer for teammates during the opening half of the second half.

"Hurry up!" he yelled as he encouraged Manchester United from the sidelines.

But in scoring, he had the opportunity to leave his mark on the game, and then he succeeded.

The Frenchman has not played since December 26, but any doubts about his sharpness soon disappeared.

His first-hand touch was blocked, and a few minutes later, he and Fernandes joined together exquisitely, creating an excellent opportunity for Anthony Matil. #aclotzone

The striker was defeated by Eric Dier, but Manchester United has clearly received the arrival of Pogba. When Pogba won the penalty in only nine minutes, they should improve their level.
