PAUL Pogba has called on Manchester United to “wake up” after another slip up, this time at home to Southampton.

Draws with Leicester City and Burnley have seen United drop to third in the table behind Chelsea and severely damage their chances of finishing runners-up.

And with Romelu Lukaku stretchered off after a clash of heads with Saints defender Wesley Hoedt and Zlatan Ibrahimovic out for a month, the problems are mounting at Old Trafford.

It looks like Jose Mourinho will also have to do without Ashley Young who is set to miss three games after his FA violent charge rap for his alleged elbow on Dusan Tadic.

Everton are next for United at Goodison Park and Pogba has demanded more from his side.
He told MUTV: “We didn't lose but we have to wake up, bounce back and get back to winning.

''We drew again. Three draws, we have to win, something has to change and we have to change to win.

''It's only one day and then we have to play against Everton - that's football.

“Tomorrow's another day and we have to go out there and win.''

Lukaku will be out for the next two games on medical grounds and Pogba insists the Belgian striker will be a big miss.

Pogba continued: ''When we have Romelu, he makes it difficult for defenders and creates so much space as well.

“He's a big miss for us but we have the team to fill the gap of Romelu.''
