Anthony Martial has praised Paul Pogba for his leadership qualities and insists Manchester United are now seeing the real version of the French midfielder.
After a testing spell of form under Jose Mourinho, Pogba has been revitalised under interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
And his compatriot Martial has been impressed with his form and the way he conducts himself in front of the team.
“We all know what quality Paul possesses – Paul is Paul,” Martial told Sky Sports. “Now he has got this freedom to play with, I think we are beginning to see the real Paul Pogba play and let’s hope it continues.
“He is a leader, he talks more in the dressing room than he does on the field to be fair. Technically and with the spoken word, he is a leader in both senses. I hope he can continue to lead us to great things.
“I don’t think we are very far off the top four now so it is just a case of keeping going, winning as many games as we can so we can ensure a place in those Champions League spots at the end of the season.
“Any footballer would say the same thing, [my goal is] to win as many titles and trophies as possible, as much silverware as possible and it is also really important to keep developing, progressing and improving as a player over the years.”
Martial penned a new contract at Old Trafford this month, and describes his period at the club since his move from Monaco as “really enriching.”
Whilst the has been impressed by Solskjaer’s “great values” since working with him.
Martial will hope to be back in the starting line-up vs Fulham after coming off the bench against Leicester following a minor injury.
