Premier League 2019-20: 3 things to watch out for in the Manchester United vs Chelsea match

Paul Pogba's form

If there is one player that is always subject to speculation, it is Paul Pogba. Be it managerial controversies, hair color or transfer rumors, Pogba is always in the news.

This transfer window wasn't any different. There was persistent gossip about Pogba moving to another club to pursue "a different challenge". To add to the mix, Solskjaer gave many cryptic responses to queries related to Pogba, which suggested that something was going on.

However, the situation seems to be in control (for now). As the season starts, it is imperative that Pogba starts for United as he seems to be the driving force behind's Solskjaer's machine.

Pogba is a polarizing player; he has always divided opinions among the fans. Perhaps the most concerning part of Pogba's character has been consistency. Very often when United are struggling, Pogba is seen hanging his head and just doing the bare minimum instead of taking charge of the situation.

On his day, Pogba can be a defender's nightmare. He possesses unmatched dribbling ability coupled with fabulous vision. Solskjaer has to realize that Pogba can become the spine of this team if his consistency can be improved.

The contest at Old Trafford might just depend on Pogba's form. If the Frenchman decides to make this his match, then there is little Chelsea can do.
