Manchester United's Paul Pogba to miss 3 matches after red card against Arsenal

Paul Pogba will miss three domestic matches after he was sent off during Manchester United’s Premier League clash against Arsenal at the Emirates stadium. 

Pogba played a key role in putting his side into a commanding 3-1 lead. He set up the goals for Antonio Valencia and Jesse Lingard. However, he was given his marching orders with 16 minutes remaining. 

After mis-controlling the ball, Pogba attempted to make up for his error by launching into a tackle on Hector Bellerin, but succeeded only in making contact with the Spaniard’s thigh.

Referee Andre Marriner had no option but to send off the United midfielder and he will now miss the crucial Manchester derby next Sunday at Old Trafford. 

Pogba will be eligible for the midweek Champions League clash against CSKA Moscow. But he will miss the Premier League games against Bournemouth at Old Trafford and West Brom at the Hawthorns.
