Paul Pogba will miss Manchester United’s next three domestic matches after he was sent off during his side’s Premier League clash against Arsenal at the Emirates stadium.
The France international played a key role in putting his side into a commanding 3-1 lead, setting up goals for Antonio Valencia and Jesse Lingard, but was given his marching orders with 16 minutes remaining of a pulsating contest.
After miscontrolling the ball, Pogba attempted to make up for his error by launching into a tackle on Hector Bellerin, but succeeded only in making contact with the Spaniard’s thigh.
