Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed Paul Pogba has picked up a knock against Rochdale and is a doubt for the Arsenal game.
Manchester United are due to face their rivals at Old Trafford on Monday night and losing Pogba for the fixture will be a huge blow.
Solskjær on Pogba: “Situation is he finished the game [Rochdale], 90 mins, fantastic but he got a knock to his ankle which is very swollen so [it] was better not to go there with the team and he’s in a race for Monday. Doubt? Yes, but that’s just the way it is.” #mulive

Solskjaer is under immense pressure after leading the Red Devils to a rocky start to the 2019/20 campaign. United are 8th in the standings after collecting only 2 wins in the 6 Premier League games played so far.
Just last week they fell to a 2-0 defeat against West Ham United and things are about to get even more difficult without their best playmaker. Despite, Pogba’s obvious urge to leave Old Trafford, he still remains the most creative aspect of this United side.
Without him, the Red Devils struggle to formulate their own attacks and they have been suffering from this disease right after their 4-0 thumping of Chelsea in August.
Arsenal are facing issues of their own under Unai Emery but they seem to be a far more collected side at this point.
