#5 Paul Pogba – Score: 25.7 (+2)

Paul Pogba's resurgence under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has continued

The resurgence of Paul Pogba at Manchester United under caretaker boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer continued last month, as the French midfielder has moved up two spots into the #5 position. Pogba scored twice in February – both against Fulham in a Man of the Match-level performance, and also made an assist in United’s win over Crystal Palace, taking his total to 11 goals and 9 assists for the season thus far.

Pogba has essentially excelled in all areas recently, outside of one minor one – with 36 fouls committed he’s at the top of a list nobody wants to be at the top of in terms of the current top 10 players, and a recent booking against Southampton hasn’t helped either.

If the Frenchman could sort his discipline out, United would be looking at the perfect midfielder, as both his attacking and defensive statistics are impressive – and that would mean that huge £89m transfer fee would probably be worth it.
