Pogba decisive to send Man United top ahead of crucial clash with title rivals Liverpool

When Paul Pogba signed for Manchester United in a then-world record £89.1 million transfer from Juventus in Aug. 2016, it was for nights like this at Burnley. Nights when the French midfielder made a match-winning contribution in a big game which resulted in the club moving to the top of the Premier League table.

Unfortunately for United and Pogba, those moments have come all too infrequently. But finally, after so many years of disappointments, United are now back at the top of the pile and their most high-profile, and frustrating, player was the man who made it happen.
