Manchester United vs Juventus: What Pogba said about predicting Champions League clash
Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba has explained why he cannot predict his side’s Champions League clash with Juventus at Old Trafford on Tuesday night.
Pogba, a former Juventus player, said he can’t predict the Red Devils’ clash against the Serie A champions because the Champions League is like the World Cup where everything is possible.
Speaking ahead of Man United’s clash with Juventus, Pogba told UEFA’s official website: ”You can’t predict anything in the Champions League.
“It’s like the World Cup. I see it as a high-profile competition with great teams. Everything is possible.
“There’s a lot of emotions involved because I began my first season in the professional game and scored my first goal at Juventus.
“It’s there that I developed a player and so I have huge respect for the club. [But] I’ve come back home.
“I joined the youth academy here. I’m at home here and it will always be that way. I grew up with my team-mates and we’ve all been reunited again in the first team, so it’s a beautiful story. The career I have had and now, with this return to Manchester, it’s really splendid.”
“I must admit I’m thinking about it [lifting the trophy]. I think all players want to win this title. It’s my goal to take it home.”
