The midfielder is highly-regarded at Old Trafford and has featured in a number of first-team squads over recent weeks, and the Frenchman has admitted he hopes he can force his way into United’s starting line-up.

"It's very good," he told MUTV. "Just to train with the talented players, top-class players, and improve and get more experience.

"When I'm on the bench, I just watch and want to play with them and get involved. Like against Liverpool, it was a great chance for me to be on the bench.

"I hope I will come on and do my best and show everyone what I can do."

Pogba’s current contract expires in the summer although Red Devils boss Sir Alex Ferguson’s recently admitted he remains hopeful the 18-year-old will sign a new deal to stay at the club.
