Pogba: My role as a midfielder is not to score


Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba, has
claimed that his role as a midfielder is not to
score goals, but to dictate play.
The 23-year-old rejoined United in a
£89.3million deal from Juventus last summer.
Since his return, Pogba has scored only four
goals and provided three assists in 20 Premier
League appearances.
“I love playing. I feel good everywhere [on the
pitch]. With everything that happened, the
transfer, changing club, returning to
Manchester, people want me to score, make a
difference in games, because they say that at
that price, a player must score, provide
assists,” he told SFR Sport.
“My role as a midfielder is not to score. I can
make a difference in games, but I have a lot of
work. Defensive work, dictate play. It’s also a
question of my abilities. I can also make the
difference in winning back possession, in the
team’s play. I have to work for the team rather
than think about myself.”
Pogba endured a miserable afternoon as United
held Liverpool to a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford on
Sunday.
