Best Premier League goal-assist combination: this United duo are unstoppable together

Manchester United’s two creative midfielders combined to create the killer goal in the 2-0 victory against 10-man Brighton this evening.

Paul Pogba, who came on as substitute for the uninspiring Fred, breathed new life into the United side and provided the assist in the 96th minute for his teammate.

It was Pogba’s eighth assist in the Premier League this season. As Statman Dave points out, only Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mo Salah have more.

And @UtdArena notes that Pogba’s eight have come in only 828 minutes of football, an incredible assist rate.

Pogba has eight league assists in just 828 minutes lol.

He and Bruno are developing an almost telepathic understanding. Another statistics site, whoscored.com, notes that ‘Pogba has directly assisted four goals for Bruno Fernandes in the Premier League this season, the best assist-to-goalscorer combination in the division.’

In truth, United looked a different side once Pogba replaced Fred in the second half.

Fernandes had played well up until that point but seemed to go up a gear when joined by the Frenchman in United’s midfield.

He has now been involved in 58 Premier League goals for United since joining two years ago; 34 goals and 24 assists in just 75 games. A phenomenal record.

The Pogba-Fernandes combination has had its critics but it was both easy on the eye and extremely productive against Brighton this evening.
