Pogba shows his class

It is safe to say that Paul Pogba has had a tricky time justifying the fact that he is the most expensive player in the world during his first season back at Manchester United.
The Frenchman, who rejoined the club from Juventus last summer, has seen his performances scrutinised from the second that that £89m transfer fee was mentioned, with plenty of people queuing up to use anything they can to try and prove he wasn't worth the money.Pogba has struggled to justify the world-record transfer fee of £89m paid to Juventus last summer but this was a stage on which he showed flashes of the qualities that persuaded Mourinho to make him such a high-priority signing.

The manner in which he made sure early midfield dominance was secured was impressive and he added a goal for good measure.

It may end up being classed as an own goal but Pogba will happily accept it, trying his luck from 20 yards after being afforded just a little too much space by Ajax captain Davy Klaassen and helped by a huge deflection off Davinson Sanchez. And perhaps he was due that touch of good fortune after being thwarted by the woodwork so often this season.

And it was another profitable night for another big-money Mourinho buy, Mkhitaryan. The Armenian struggled in the first half but showed what a priceless poacher's instinct he has, swooping from close range for another Europa League goal.
