Pogba on early season criticisms: 'I never look at the newspapers'

Paul Pogba hasn't been giving any thought to the haters.

The Manchester United superstar, the subject of incessant criticism after a handful of underwhelming displays since his world-record transfer from Juventus this summer, finally got off the schneid Saturday, scoring his first goal for the Red Devils in a 4-1 win over defending champion Leicester.

Asked after the contest of his delight at silencing the early season doubters, the French midfielder said he never concerned himself with the opinions of pundits who derided his recent performances.

"Me, I never look at the newspapers. I always say one thing: It's at the end we will see. So at the end you will see," declared Pogba, who found the net with a crafty header in the one-sided affair.

"I'm very happy for the result and for this goal. I hope it's not going to be the last one so just carry on. Keep doing what we did today."

He added: "Today we showed on the pitch a very big performance for the team. We are happy. We want to carry on like this."

United will get the opportunity to do just that Thursday, when Ukrainian side FC Zorya Luhansk visits Old Trafford in a Europa League clash.
