On Sunday, December 30, the Frenchman scored two goals to help his side record a 4-1 victory over Bournemouth at Old Trafford.

The feat saw him named Man of the Match, as he went on to become the first Manchester United player to score at least twice in consecutive Premier League appearances since Wayne Rooney in December 2012.

According to a UK Metro report, Pogba believes Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has brought an attacking mentality to Manchester United that has turned around his form.

He further observed that Solskjaer's style of football is different from Mourinho's, revealing United are now playing more offensively than before.

"We are Manchester United and we need to be at the top of the league, it is just a reaction of all of the players and everyone is enjoying themselves," he told Sky Sports.
"It is different, we still won games with the old manager but it is just a different style of playing, we are more offensive and we are creating more chances and that is how we want to play," he added.

Following their victory over the Cherries, the Red Devils still sit sixth with 35 points, just three behind fifth-placed Arsenal.

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Premier League giants Manchester United appointed Ole Gunnar Solskjær as their new manager until the end of the ongoing 2018/19 Premier League season.

The 45-year-old Norwegian football manager replaces former manager Jose Mourinho who was thrown out of the club because of poor results.

He will be joined by Mike Phelan as first-team coach, together with Michael Carrick and Kieran McKenna this season at Old Trafford.
