Man Utd midfielder Pogba admits: We feel the pressure from behind us

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba was left frustrated after their 0-0 draw with Southampton.

The France international felt that referee Craig Pawson should have pointed to the spot after Southampton defender Maya Yoshida appeared to handle the ball in the first half.

And the 24-year-old thought he'd won his side the game when he poked home from close range, only to see his effort ruled out for offside.

"We wanted to win today," he said.

“But we could only get the draw. We need to get back in the winning mentality, because it will be better for all of us.

"We didn't have the final pass today, and we had a penalty that wasn't given, and if we had that, and scored, it would've changed the game.

"The pressure is coming from behind, but we have to forget about everyone else, and focus on ourselves."
