Paul Pogba has been tipped to move out of Manchester United this summer but according to Troy Deeney, Bruno Fernandes can convince the Frenchman to remain at Old Trafford.
The Watford man believes that the signing of Fernandes has been a breath of fresh air for Manchester United and now Paul Pogba can finally be convinced that the club are actually moving in the right direction.
‘If [Pogba’s] now going, “Oh, this is the type of player that we’re signing, cool”,’ Deeney told the United Stand.
‘I’ve heard him on the pitch, sometimes he’s coaching players.
‘It’s frustrating, I’ve been in that situation, many captains in our league have been in that situation where we’re going [to team-mates], “Yo, do what you do in training, just because there’s more people here doesn’t mean you have to change your game”.
‘I can understand why he’d get frustrated.
‘But now he’s probably looking at it going, “Okay I can see what’s going on here, me and Bruno can do a madness”.

‘If you put (Nemanja) Matic in behind them or (Scott) McTominay, break it up, you know like Roy Keane used to do, get it, break it up ten let (Paul) Scholes do his thing.’
Will Paul Pogba stay at Man United?
One of the big problems for Man United has been signing top-quality players over the past couple of seasons. In the past few years, Paul Pogba has been shouldering almost all of the responsibility at the club which in fairness has taken a toll on him.
But now with Bruno Fernandes arriving at the club, Man United automatically look a more threating side and they have not even missed Paul Pogba during the past couple of months.
So now that Fernandes is there to join into attacks, Paul Pogba might very well choose to give one more shot to his career at Manchester United since he will be able to play with a lot more ease.
Mino Raiola though is desperate to take him out of England and we feel that if Man United can get a bumper transfer fee for the player, there’s every chance that Ole will not beg and plead Paul Pogba to stay.
