Solskjaer says talks 'ongoing' over new Pogba deal
Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has reportedly put a stop to all talks over a new contract at Old Trafford after blanking Ole Gunnar Solskjaer following Sunday's loss to Liverpool. Pogba was sent off 15 minutes after coming on as a half-time substitute in the 5-0 demolition at Old Trafford. The Frenchman's poor tackle on Naby Keita saw referee Anthony Taylor overturn his initial decision of a yellow card after consulting with VAR.

However, United legend Paul Scholes was not impressed with what little Pogba showed on Sunday.
Scholes told Premier League Productions: "Paul Pogba coming on to the pitch at half-time to try and help the team and maybe get a little respectability about it, tries to stand on the ball, tries to show how strong he is in the middle of the pitch… gives the goal away.
"Then later on gets sent off with a ridiculous tackle. Now you're 5-0 down with 10 men. You'd have to think, if Ole's still a manager there, will we see Pogba again in a United shirt?
"Look, he probably will play [again] won't he? But I don't think they will be missing anything if he doesn't."
