Manchester United’s dreadful defeat to Middlesbrough in the FA Cup may have been dire, but it did hand them a contract headache thanks to Paul Pogba ’s performance.
Pogba was making his first appearance under interim boss Ralf Rangnick, having missed the German’s reign so far because of suspension and injury.
Rangnick opted to start the Frenchman in central midfield for the visit of the Teessiders in the fourth round of the competition, which United went on to lose on penalties.
