Man Utd want to build team around top quality Pogba – Ole Solskjaer

Share

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said Manchester United are looking to build a team around midfielder Paul Pogba, a player he considers to be ‘one of the best’.

Pogba has been the star of the show in the new boss’ first two games in charge of the Red Devils, scoring two goals and getting two assists as they beat Cardiff and Huddersfield. SOlskjaer is sure his World Cup winner has what it takes to become a reliable star for the Old Trafford side.

“I think Paul’s a top, top player,” he said. “He’s one of the best top players in the world. Attacking wise he’s done really and but he’s a big lad – can win headers, tackles.

“He’s been the same as the others. The attitude has been perfect and that’s key – you should be tired towards the end of every single game. He’s been top class and we’re looking to build a team around him of course, but there are so many quality players [in this squad].”

Manchester United return to action on Sunday as they welcome Bournemouth to Old Trafford. The hosts will be eyeing their third win on the bounce under Solskjaer.
