​ Pogba delighted to help out Man Utd​

Paul Pogba was in a buoyant mood after Manchester United beat Blackburn Rovers on Sunday.

The French midfielder came off the bench to supply fellow second-half sub Zlatan Ibrahimovic with a 75th-minute winner at Ewood Park in the fifth round of the FA Cup.

"I just try to help the team out as much as possible," Pogba told BT Sport.

"I notice his movement and his runs, and today it worked out. Sometimes it does but also sometimes it doesn't.

"Thankfully today it did and we got the win so I'm happy."

Marcus Rashford equalised for United on 27 minutes after Danny Graham had put Rovers ahead on 17 minutes.
