Paul Pogba determined to deliver trophies for Manchester United
Paul Pogba is focused on winning the FA Cup and Europa League rather than his Manchester United future.
The World Cup winner scored his first goal of an injury-ravaged campaign on Thursday, wrapping up a 3-0 Premier League win at embattled Aston Villa.
Pogba is playing with a smile on his face a year on from admitting his openness to a move away from Old Trafford, with the France international even reportedly willing to extend his deal.
Asked if he has had a change of heart about staying at the club, the 27-year-old told Sky Sports: âRight now, Iâve been injured for a very long time.

âI focused on myself to get back and help the team as much as I can.
âThis year we have two goals: to go for the Europa League and the FA Cup. So, we focus on that.â
Pogbaâs desire for a successful end to the season was a common theme in his post-match interview.
âWeâre really pleased with ourselves but we know we have to carry on,â he said.

âWe talk before the game, we talk in training that we have to carry on. Thatâs what Manchester is.
âItâs a big club and we want to keep the level up always.
âThe performance today and the past few weeks, they are very good and they are the standard of Manchester United.
âAlways (we have to keep our feet on the ground). We didnât win the Premier League. I mean, thatâs the goal.
âWe didnât win anything this year, so obviously we have to keep working. Thereâs a lot to do. A lot.â
While Pogba added gloss to the final scoreline, Bruno Fernandesâ penalty was the main talking point along with 18-year-old Mason Greenwoodâs latest stunning goal.
âItâs very good,â he said of the academy graduate. âI enjoy to see them play up front.
âď¸ Another impressive display, another #MUFC Man of the Match award for #MasonGreenwood! đ

âI enjoy this kid in training and in the game and I will keep pushing him to be at the top.
âHe has so much to do and he can do even more.
âWhat heâs doing now is just his talent and heâs showed he can play in this team.â
