The 25-year-old was imperious in the Red Devils’ FA Cup tie against Chelsea in which they stormed to a 2-0 first-half lead.

Pogba’s beautifully crafted ball set up Ander Herrera for the first goal, before he then got in on the action himself, thundering home a header just before the break.

As a result, United supporters began to make a very bold claim indeed – declaring him the best midfielder in the world.
