Rangnick impressed by how Varane has settled at Man Utd
Paul Pogba possibly provided a subtle hint regarding his Manchester United future against Burnley on Tuesday night. The 28-year-old fired United ahead after 18 minutes at Turf Moor and caught the eye with an interesting choice of celebration.
On either side of Pogba's opener, the Red Devils had two goals disallowed in a dominant first-half performance.
But United were held after failing to respond to Jay Rodriquez's early equaliser after the break.
And with West Ham United beating Watford at the London Stadium, they have slipped down to fifth in the Premier League and could be as low as eighth after games in hand are played.

United finally made a dominant start count on 18 minutes following positive work between Marcus Rashford and Luke Shaw down the left.
Rashford carried the ball into the final third and found Shaw, who embarked on an overlapping run into the box.
The latter's cut back from the byline evaded several Burnley players at the near post and found an unmarked Pogba at the other side of the penalty area.
And he aimed a powerful side-foot past Nick Pope and into the net to hand the visitors a deserved lead.

After scoring, Pogba backtracked out of the penalty area before being swarmed by his delighted teammates.
But once the huddle had cleared, the France international appeared to point at the bench with one hand and signal 'three' with the other whilst grinning.
Pogba has been one to keep fans guessing of his next move since returning to Manchester in 2016, but speculation is at an all-time high with his contract expiry on the horizon.
As the BT Sport studio pondered what Pogba meant by the celebration, Rio Ferdinand said: "Three more years, I reckon."
