Paul Pogba has had a troubled season so far with Manchester United, and Arsenal fans have added to the Frenchman’s woes by mocking the midfielder’s previous picture with Gabriel Martinelli.
The Brazilian forward, who trained with United on four occasions between 2015-2017, made it four goals from two starts with the Gunners on Thursday after netting another brace at the Emirates.
Martinelli also set up Dani Ceballos for his first Arsenal goal as Unai Emery’s side brushed aside Standard Liege 4-0 in north London.
And following the fixture, Arsenal parody account @Aubazettes shared this picture of the 18-year-old alongside Pogba, which led to these Gunners fans heaping praise on their forward while mocking the United man.

Arsenal fans love to tear into opposing stars given any opportunity, and following Martinelli’s dazzling display in the week, it was difficult not to get involved.
Pogba failed to shine against the Gunners on Monday, while Martinelli has excelled in his two appearances so far.
Of course, the teenager has a long way to go to be considered as one of the best, but the early signs show that the Red Devils may regret not snapping up the Brazilian when given the chance to do so.
