Paul Pogba: How do you feel?

Romelu Lukaku: I feel really happy and delighted - I can't wait to get started.

PP: Are you looking forward to this season?

RL: Last year you guys won three trophies and now it's time to build on that and perform better than we did last year.

PP: Perfect, Perfect. To be honest, as a Manchester United player too I'm very happy to see a big player like you, and a brother as well. Remind me of the first time we met?

RL: The first time at Stamford Bridge but I knew about you when I was 15.

PP: I knew about you too, when I was 13 (laughs).

RL: My dad came to our house, when you guys played my brother for Belgium against France, and my dad said: "Rom, I've seen this guy in midfield, No 10, captain, Paul Pogba or whatever his name is... left foot, right foot 60-yard passes like it was nothing. I was like "oh really" and asked my brother who told me it is true. And then we met at Stamford Bridge, the 3-3. We weren't playing but sitting in the stands and looking at each other like "what are we doing here!?" (laughter).

PP: It was a tough time but good memories.

RL: I think it formed us for what we are today and gave us a bit of motivation. The game was a good one as well with the 3-0 then the comeback.

PP: Ah, the comeback was nice.

RL: For you guys (laughs). It was a good game then we spoke after the game, we exchanged numbers and then we've been in touch on a daily basis ever since. And here we are now. We were always competing against each other but are now playing together. I think what we have… everything is natural. Some people think it's made up but everything is natural. We gel well. You're the fire and I'm the water. You see me when I need to wake up and I tell you when to calm down. It's good.

PP: Exactly we match (laugh).

RL: But we're really competitive, that's the thing, when we play basketball or football we talk rubbish.

PP: I always win but still...

The pair have become close friends since exchanging numbers at at Chelsea game

RL: You remember what happened the last time we played basketball, right... the 5 vs 5 you after you lost...did you shake my hand? You didn't shake my hand (laughs). We don't talk much but we have to make sure we perform as it's serious now. We know what to do.

RL: Remember when I scored, I did the dab then you did the dab a few weeks after. You didn't create it, you made it worldwide… nah nah nah - Cam Newton made it worldwide. First Cam Newton did it, then you started doing it, then it ended up all over the place. I scored before you, then you scored in some stadium in Italy in the league and you did it with Juan Cuadrado.

PP: I will tell you something. It was the same weekend because I remember it. First of all the dab came from the dance, I didn't know Cam Newton had done it but it's OK, I taught you well the dab, you did it well.

RL: Well don't worry I won't be doing it again (laughs).

PP: You're a top player in the Premier League. You've signed for one of the biggest clubs in the world and one of the biggest clubs in England. What's your objective?

RL: Titles every year. Nothing less. Being at Manchester United you have to challenge for every title that there is - every cup and whatever - and that's why I'm here. That's why I'm here to try and help the team to perform. I'm not going to talk too much I'm just going to perform on the pitch to do whatever it does to win the game.
