Bruno Fernandes shares brilliant Paul Pogba admission about Manchester United goal

Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes has shared a brilliant post about Paul Pogba which highlights the hidden key role his team-mate provided in the win over Bournemouth.

United cruised to a 5-2 victory on Saturday to make it 16 games unbeaten.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side sit in fifth and two points off of Chelsea following a Mason Greenwood brace and goals from Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Fernandes.

Whilst Greenwood and Martial grabbed the headlines the most at Old Trafford, Fernandes again provided a dominant display and capped it off with a wonderful free-kick.

Both he and Pogba stood over the free-kick in the second half and the Portuguese star has explained that it was the French World Cup winner who advised him on where to put the ball.

Fernandes posted a picture of him and Pogba standing over the ball on Instagram and explained: "When you trust the @paulpogba advice this is the result. Slide to the side."

United fans will love the relationship that is building between midfielders Fernandes and Pogba and will be hoping it's a sign of things to come.

Pogba has not fulfilled his potential at the Reds since rejoining from Juventus and has been linked with a move away.

But the hope is that Fernandes will be able to get the best out of Pogba moving forward.
