The Frenchman was particularly impressive in the second half, after a tactical tweak by manager Jose Mourinho. Although the boss insisted the club's record buy did not operate at centre-back in a three-man defence alongside Chris Smalling and Nemanja Matic, he was noticeably deeper and was able to dictate the play.
He set up Anthony Martial's equaliser with a clever flick and also passed to Ashley Young to allow the right-back to cross for Alexis Sanchez to plunder a dramatic 90th-minute winner.
Pogba has now had a hand in more Premier League goals for the Reds than any other player since Jose took over (13 goals and 16 assists), according to Opta.
