Pogba insists Man Utd ‘can hurt’ Barca at Camp Nou

Paul Pogba believes Manchester United can hurt Barcelona as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side again look to overcome an Old Trafford loss in the Champions League.

Having last month recovered from a two-goal home defeat in stunning fashion at Paris St Germain, the Red Devils head to Spain next Tuesday looking to overturn a 1-0 deficit in the quarter-finals.

Luke Shaw’s own goal from a Luis Suarez header was the difference at Old Trafford, where United failed to muster a shot on target but largely shackled Barca’s glut of attacking options.

Solskjaer‘s men face an uphill battle at the Nou Camp, but Pogba takes encouragement from Barcelona’s limited display at Old Trafford.

“I think it was a good game,” the World Cup-winning midfielder said.

“Obviously we were playing against Barcelona, one of the best teams in the world, but we gave them some problems as well.

“They give us them some problems, but we know where we can hurt them.

“Now it is one leg gone, you have the other one and we are going to give everything on this one.”

Asked if he saw a team that United could beat, Pogba said: “Of course. If you don’t believe that you can beat them, you just let them go through.

“Of course, we believe that we can beat them.

“We are Manchester United. Even if they are Barcelona, we are Manchester United, and we play in the Champions League like they do, and we can go through, of course.”
