Paul Pogba transforms from pussycat to blue-haired lion as Manchester United star shoots down City after Gary Neville's scathing half-time rant

At half-time, a scathing Gary Neville said Paul Pogba would only be 'fifth-choice' in Pep Guardiola's midfield. Within 10 minutes, the Frenchman had scored twice to kill City's dream of winning the Premier League title in a Manchester derby.

Just another day in the rollercoaster career of English football's most-expensive player. The £89million emoji star is truly becoming the game's ultimate Marmite character — loved and detested in equal measure.

Pogba had dominated the build-up to a dramatic derby. Guardiola had 'let slip' to the world's media that he'd been offered to City by agent Mino Raiola in the January transfer window.
