Paul Pogba claims Manchester United should not fear anyone in the Premier League this season.

United are top of the table after winning both of their opening games 4-0 to make their best start to a campaign in 110 years.

Pogba is thrilled by their start under Jose Mourinho and says they can have a great season.

“I’m pleased and happy that we have started really well, but it is not finished yet,” said the £89million midfielder told ESPN FC. “It’s just the start of the season.

“The biggest challengers? We are our own rivals and we think about ourselves first. But we don't have to be scared of anyone in the league because we know we are a strong team as well. We know we can do great this season.

“I hope [we can win the title]. Every team is strong, like when Leicester won it two years ago and nobody expected it, so you don't know what's going to happen.

“We started very well, but we can end up bad and we don’t want this. We want to be focused from game to game.”

Pogba’s blistering form has been key to United’s flying start and he has bagged two goals and four assists in the two wins.

The France star is quick to acknowledge the difference Nemanja Matic’s signing has made to his game and he says the Serb’s £40million arrival from Chelsea has given him licence to get forward.

“I’m mostly an offensive player and I think more about attacking,” sid Pogba. “But he will be more defending.

“We can switch, but we match a lot and in those two games, I have been more forward and he has stayed back.

“That helps me more be myself. I still do the defensive part, but now I can go forward more and help the strikers. I like to be in front of the goals too.

“He helps me and I enjoy it, yes.”
