Paul Pogba makes Man Utd history with FOUR assists – and has already beaten last season’s total thanks to Leeds rampage

PAUL POGBA set up FOUR of Manchester United’s five goals as they swept past Leeds in the Premier League season opener.

Pogba’s stunning haul means he’s already topped his whole assist tally of last season during which he claimed just three assists.

He also became the first United player to achieve the amazing feat of four assists in one game in the club’s history, according to Opta Joe.

The Frenchman became just the seventh Prem star to set up a quartet of goals, which hasn’t been done since Antonio Valencia did so in 2011.

He got United off to a great start against Leeds when he set up Fernandes in the 30th minute, making it 1-0 to the Red devils.

The second assist came when he played a superb ball from the left flank to Mason Greenwood in the second half, cancelling out Leeds’ equaliser.

Pogba got in on the act once more when he put Fernandes through on goal the 54th minute, putting United 3-1 up.

Then to round off his thrilling performance at Old Trafford, Pogba presented Fred with the perfect opportunity to make it five and the midfielder didn’t miss.
