Pogba spoke ahead Man United clash with Juventus in the Champions League on Wednesday.

“If he takes the armband away, it doesn’t change anything for me. I just want to play, perform and give my best for the team, the fans and the club and that’s it. It didn’t really touch me or affect me.
“Choosing to come back to United, first of all, was my choice. Juve were playing Champions League and Manchester were playing Europa.
“I don’t regret my choice. I know Manchester in the last few years haven’t been at the top, but I came back to help the team and get them back to the top. We have a lot of goals.
“For me, it’s not changed, I don’t regret it at all. I’m very happy to come back to United and I’m sure we will come back to the best.â€
