What happened between Pogba and West Ham fans

But as players headed down the tunnel, one Hammer's fan used the 'f' word to insult Paul Pogba and the Frenchman in return opened his mouth without uttering a word.

Micheal Carrick had to intervene by pulling the France international from fans around the tunnel into the dressing room.

In a video clip of the confrontation, one angry supporter was heard telling Pogba to "shut your f**king mouth' before someone shouts 'f*** you."

The Frenchman handled the incident well as he appeared to be starring at the crowd while he received several waves of abuse.

Carrick had to tell the 28-year-old to leave the scene and head into the dressing room before things get ugly.

It was a nail-biting defeat for West Ham who were unbeaten this season and they gave a good account of themselves against one of the title favourites.
