It’s a quick turnaround for Manchester United, and that’s a good thing as yesterday was a complete disaster. They will begin their League Cup campaign versus Rochdale AFC, in a third round tie, at home on Wednesday night. The Dale currently competes in League One, the third tier of English football.

United Striker Marcus Rashford went down with a groin injury in Sunday’s catastrophic 2-0 loss at West Ham United. After the loss, Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said that the English international will be out for awhile.

Manchester United have been hit by another injury at the position group where they can least afford it. Striker Marcus Rashford went down with a groin injury during United’s 2-0 loss at West Ham. After the loss, Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said that the English international will be out for awhile.

This leaves the side with literally zero centre forwards match fit at the current moment. Youngster Mason Greenwood missed the trip to London because of illness while Anthony Martial remains a long term injury absentee. Solskjaer is hopeful of having at least one of the two back for potential selection in the League Cup versus Rochdale at home on Wednesday night.

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes is known for his strong takes on his former club. He does not hold back, and his strong opinions are backed up with facts.

While he was known for not wanting to talk much during his days as a player, his life as a pundit has seen him really open up and showcase his knowledge and personality. Scholes believes that midfielder Paul Pogba wants out, and that the club should grant him his wish. He also thinks it was major mistake to let striker Romelu Lukaku go without lining up a proper replacement.

Paul Pogba is most certainly a polarizing figure, with Manchester United club legend Paul Scholes blasting him only two days ago. While Scholes sees Pogba’s potential sale as no big deal to get upset about, the club itself has a starkly contrasting view of the French midfielder.

According to an ESPN report today, United are set to meet with Pogba’s “agent Mino Raiola to discuss a contract extension in the coming weeks.” This report comes amid rumors linking the Frenchman with a move to Real Madrid. Pogba, re-acquired from Juventus in 2016 for a then record £89.3 million transfer fee, has two years left on his deal with a club option for a third.
