If you were to issue Paul Pogba with a school report-style grade for his first season back at Manchester United, a ‘B-‘ would probably be about fair.The French midfielder showed glimpses of his world-class talent but also flattered to deceive in too many matches.Many United fans were convinced the 24-year-old would dominate the Premier League following his £89 million transfer from Juventus, but it didn’t quite work out that way yet.Still, there was always a pretty high chance that Pogba would require a ‘settling-in period’ back at Old Trafford.It also seemed to take Jose Mourinho a long time to figure out how best to use the Frenchman, who flourished in a three-man midfield in Turin.

Matic's arrival will help Pogba shine

You sense that Mourinho has signed Nemanja Matic from Chelsea specifically with Pogba in mind.

By sitting in front of the back four, Matic’s presence will allow Pogba to worry less about his own defensive responsibilities and focus on causing damage at the opposite end of the pitch.

Some football fans - particularly those on social media - like to criticise Pogba, probably because of his world-record transfer fee, at every available opportunity.
