Pogba joins Lukaku in rubbishing claims of Man Utd bust-up

Paul Pogba has joined Romelu Lukaku in rubbishing claims of a bust-up after Manchester United's win over Southampton.

Lukaku was on course for a hat-trick after registering two impressive strikes against the Saints but Pogba, United's usual penalty taker, stepped up for a late spotkick and saw his effort saved by Angus Gunn.

It was claimed that Pogba's insistence upon taking the penalty enraged Lukaku, with the pair reportedly requiring manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to calm tensions in the dressing room.

But Lukaku took to social media on Tuesday morning, posting: "When the hate don't work they start telling lies..."

And Pogba reposted the story, adding the caption: "Hahahahaha people are too funny bro."
