BRYAN ROBSON is convinced Paul Pogba will come good for Manchester United next term.

Pogba, who rejoined Manchester United for a world-record fee of £89million last summer from Juventus, failed to live up to his price tag.
The Frenchman was constantly scrutinised over his performances and struggled to make his mark in his debut campaign at Old Trafford.
Despite his shortcomings, he still got his hands on three trophies.
And United legend Robson thinks the fans will see the real Pogba next season.
“The media are always trying to criticise Paul," Robson told the club's official website.

Paul is not really appreciated by certain sections of the media
"To a certain degree, that's because of the transfer fee and not because of the player.
“But when I look at Pogba, he has come into the club and improved us in that area.
“He has got certain things our other midfield players haven't got.
“Paul is not really appreciated by certain sections of the media but when he's not in the team, I think he's missed.
“With the confidence of winning three trophies, I think he will go on and have an even better campaign next season."

Meanwhile, Michael Carrick recently signed a new one-year contract for the Red Devils and Robson thinks this is great news for the club.
He added: “I'm absolutely delighted as Michael has got great experience.
"He is good for the dressing room and knows what the club is all about.
“He is a really sensible lad who trains really hard and some of that can rub off on the kids coming through at this moment in time.
“I’m delighted to see he's been given another year.”
