Sir Alex Ferguson says that Manchester United are discussing a new contract with the Frenchman and that the midfielder is determined to stay at Old Trafford despite all the talk in the media...
Manchester United gained a crucial two goal win over Stoke City on Tuesday night as they closed in the gap on Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table. City lost their league encounter against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019 on the same
night, therefore both teams are level on points now at the top of the Premier League table, something that has interesting consequences for the last few months of the football season.
United will now feel that they can put pressure on Manchester City who do not have a lot of experience in their ranks when it comes to winning championships but at the moment, Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson is more concerned with keeping hold
of some of his young stars at the club, such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paul-c29347 Pogba.
It was Javier Hernandez who netted the first goal of the match for the Red Devils followed up by a second half strike from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dimitar-Berbatov-c11254. Both the front men capitalized from spot kicks as United had it easy on the night at
Old Trafford. Sir Alex praised his team and specifically Pogba, who earned a Premier League debut against Stoke City.
He said, "Pogba did very well. He’s got great talent and has a tremendous physique for a young boy. You can’t believe he’s 18. I was very pleased [with his performance]. It was a good time to bring him on as we were in control
of the game and it gave him a chance to be confident with the ball."
The Scotsman further added, "We are negotiating his contract at the moment. It’s a bit complicated as he’s changed his agent a couple of times. The boy wants to stay, I think that’s obvious." Manchester United’s manager will hope
that he can retain Pogba and mould him into a world class playmaker as that is what Manchester United need at the moment considering the temporary nature of Paul Scholes’ comeback and the lack of quality amongst other players in the midfield region.
