Paul Pogba's record move from Juventus to Manchester United was the talk of the summer, and it is only logical that his reintroduction at Old Trafford created quite the stir on Friday.
The France international took up his place in midfield and completed the 90 minutes as United prevailed 2-0 over Southampton to make their second consecutive Premier League victory.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic was the centre of most attention, scoring another two goals to keep up his stellar start to the season under Jose Mourinho.
Pogba's game, meanwhile, seemed to divide opinion, with Twitter users coming down either in favour or against a solid debut in his second United spell.
Pogba every time he gets the ball he attracts 3 or 4 players from the opposition towards him and opens the game up for everyone else

Pogba reminds me of when your 6 year old cousin tries getting the ball off you and you hold the little mug off

Pogba’s physical strength is ludicrous, so hard to shrug off the ball. He's really grown into the game; at ease driving at defences.

Pogba one of very few box to box midfielders in the game now. Most are either specialist attacking or defending. Very few can do both.

Pogba is the powerhouse we've always needed in midfield, that driving force going forward, and can also track back with ease.
