Loads of Manchester United fans are baffled by the decision of manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to leave Paul Pogba on the bench for today’s Premier League clash against Leeds United.
The Red Devils have some other big games coming up as they prepare for their Europa League semi-final clash with Roma and a league match with Liverpool, but it does seem a bit odd for Pogba to be benched over some other big names.
