Paul Pogba should be in contention to feature when Manchester United take on Arsenal on New Year’s Day, according to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
When asked in his pre-match press conference, conducted at Turf Moor after Saturday’s 2-0 win over Burnley, whether he thought our no.6 would travel down to London, the boss was positive in his reply.
“Yeah, I would think so,” Ole told reporters.
Pogba did not travel to East Lancashire with the rest of the squad at the weekend, after making substitute appearances against Watford and Newcastle United.
Those two cameos off the bench added up to around 70 minutes of action after almost three months out injured for the 26-year-old.
Solskjaer has indicated the midfielder simply required additional rest.
“When you’ve been out for such a while, it’s always going to take time to be 100 per cent,” Ole explained. “He just needed another day, probably, of recovery.”
