Thought he was class tonight, but worryingly he seemed to hurt his knee at the very end of the game, was limping coming off and calling the physio over. Looks like his knee bent awkwardly when he went down in the box. Hopefully it wasn't a tweaked ligament

Usual brilliance, but I'm very happy he got a goal at last.
Please don't be hurt.
He was great.
Hopefully he didn't injure himself.

When he pushed forward after Bruno was subbed off, it was like playing down the park as a kid and one of the Dads turns up to join in. Pisstakingly good.
He's extraordinary. Not a player on the planet that can do what he does.
He's talking like a captain now. seems like a completely different person
Being the leader we know he can be. Great to see. Hopefully was nothing at the end, think it was just muscular fatigue rather than anything and he was stretching it out. No mention of anything for the post match interview so probably fine.
First of the season, can't believe it.
Looks like he is loving it out on the pitch, which most players do in a winning team. Get champions league, get sancho, get him a new contract. Win the league. Easy.
Dodged the question re his future but to be expected really.
Brilliantly mature performance.
That is part of his great value, that he can be a huge attacking threat, still think that the slightly deeper role allows his overall influence to be greater. Other players might take the headlines but you can't watch that game and not think that he is the hub of our team.
Completely dodged the question on wanting to stay just now. 
Yeah looked sore on the knees.
He gives us something very different playing as the #10. Nowhere near as mobile but his dribbling and touch are even better than Fernandes so he brings others into the game in a different way. Much prefer him deeper though. It's easy to overlook how much he helps us move the ball through midfield because most of it looks effortless. It's so rare to see him take a loose touch, in contrast to Fred or McTominay.
My MOTM... Thought he kept things simple and it's ticking over, and then when he did go elaborate he did it brilliantly and effortlessly.
Yeah I guess. Just wanted him to bottom it but if he's in negotiations then I guess he's just being savvy
What did he say?
Yup, absolutely ridiculous.
The combination of strength, speed and sublime passing, makes him unplayable at times. His passing range is just outstanding. That pass to Shaw in the first half was exquisite.
MOTM.
Did he say anything about a potential injury?
Really impressive performance from Pogba. Kept us ticking over and influencing the game throughout. It just seems to me with bruno coming in a weight has been lifted of his shoulders....like he doesn't feel the responsibility of doing everything by himself, it suits he better. I think we'll maybe see the best, most consistent Pogba in a United shirt.
Completely dodged the question on wanting to stay just now.
What you expect mate. Media training. No player answers that
What do people make of that post match interview?
Yea exactly.
Was asked directly whether he wants to stay now and just sidestepped it. Players are never gonna get drawn on these things really.
Doubt he is injured, wouldn't do the interview if he was.
They asked him if he was happier now and considering staying at the club. He answered by saying he was injured for a long period this season and the team has to target a strong finish to the end of the season and then the cup competitions. Basically answered a different question.
After the season restarted, he has looked more and more like the player we originally thought we had signed. Quality player and he looks even better when he's got good attackers in front of him and Fernandes next to him. Has to be kept over the Summer as an absolute priority for next season.
I'm not interested in what Pogba said after the game, he did his talking on the pitch. Fantastic goal. Fantastic all around midfield performance. All we can ask is that he keeps doing what he's doing for as long as we have him at the club.
He looked fine. Don’t think he would be giving an interview in place of getting treatment. But keeping figures crossed.
Just said he’s just focused on winning the fa cup & Europa & we shouldn’t be celebrating this form too much because we haven’t won the league.
Good point. Yeah fingers firmly crossed.
Loves me some PP.
Sign up big man.
Sign up big man.
Excellent again.
One dumb giveaway which could have been punished. Needs to cut that out.
Easy to look past though as he is just so good.

He's appy.
MOTM, should be playing advanced. Should have an assist (wasted by Rashford again) and penalty in about 15 mins. Imagine in that position for 90 mins
Only God knows.
Where has everyone got an injury from?
I thought he started slow and didn't get into the game early on. Giant in the second half though. So many quality passes and a nice goal.
Good defending too overall. Hope Ole let him attack like he did in the second half.

Matic header down to him was a suicide pass in fairness
Playing against donkeys tonight but was just brilliant. One bad turnover (Villa hit the post) but can be forgiven taking a risk in a game like this. Great goal too. I am happy to be wrong about this guy. Hope this form continues.
