Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has hinted that the current dash of flair and resurgent team form in the Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s squad can be likened to the 1992 situation that saw the emergence of young players that helped the side to title glories.
With exceptional young talents like Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard making huge impact in the positive transformation of United, Pogba assures he is loving the opportunity making his experience count.
The France international, 25, believes that interim manager, Solskjaer is the desired round peg in round hole for the Red Devils top job.
“I try to give my experience to the younger ones because I had the chance to play in the World Cup, I’ve played in a Champions League final and a Europa League final,” Pogba told The Sun.
“So I try to pass that on to the other boys.
“It is the culture of this club, the generation of Beckham, Scholes, Butt, Gary Neville… when you come from the academy you want to play for the first team and do great things.
“Now you have Marcus Rashford, still very young but talented and a top player, and me and Jesse Lingard who have been playing together for I don’t know how many years.

“I once heard that at this club ‘there is no age’. As long as you are ready to play for the team, then let the young players go and just prove themselves. That’s how it is.
“This is Manchester United. You have the chance at this club. Young players can come and prove themselves, enjoy themselves and then become top, top players in the first team.”
Pogba said of Solskjaer: “As an ex-United player he knows the culture, he knows everything about the club and he knows how to talk to the players as well.
“It has been great to see all the players enjoying it, all playing and working together — and winning together.
“That’s what we want because we had a hard start this season. We have gained a bit and are coming back but there is still a lot more to do and we have to keep going.”
