Man Utd midfielder Pogba: We exposed Chelsea midfielders

Paul Pogba says Manchester United exploited Chelsea's midfield frailties last night.

The Red Devils won 2-0 at Stamford Bridge to advance to the FA Cup quarter-finals.

Pogba scored with a late run from midfield, and the Frenchman has revealed the goal was premeditated.

"We knew how to hurt them, (by) running behind their midfielders," said Pogba, who now has 14 goals this season.

"Two runs in the box, two goals.

"My job as a midfielder is not to score goals, it's more to make assists. But when I get a chance to score goals it's a great feeling."
