Manchester United star Paul Pogba fires title warning to Premier League rivals and praises signing of Nemanja Matic
Jose Mourinho's side have won both their opening matches against West Ham and Swansea 4-0 with the £89million Frenchman netting in both games
PAUL POGBA has fired a warning to Manchester United's Premier League rivals after their blistering start to the season.
Jose Mourinho's side have won both their opening matches against West Ham and Swansea 4-0 as they have taken an early lead at the top of the table.
And the £89million Frenchman claims United do not need to fear any of their rivals as they look for their first title since 2013.
Pogba said: "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 has been instrumental in United's winning start to the campaign having scored twice after enjoying a free role in midfield.
The new lease of life in the former Juventus star is partly to do with the signing of defensive midfielder Nemanja Matic.
The Serbian left Chelsea for Old Trafford last month and Pogba admitted it has helped him to burst forward and get amongst the goals.
Pogba added: "I am mostly an offensive player and I think more about attacking. But he [Matic] 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."
