Paul Pogba: 'We deserved to lose against Leicester City'

Paul Pogba: 'We deserved to lose against Leicester City'

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has admitted that his side "deserved to lose" against Leicester City in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

The Red Devils saw their 29-game unbeaten run away from home in the league come to an end at the King Power Stadium, as they suffered a 4-2 defeat to Brendan Rodgers's side.

Pogba has said that the 20-time English champions could have no complaints with the result, and the midfielder has admitted that change is required following a disappointing run of form.

"We deserved to lose. To be honest, we've been having these kind of games for a long time. We are conceding easy, stupid goals. We need to find something, we need to change," Pogba told reporters.

"We need to find the right mentality, the right tactic, stick with it and resolve the issue."

Man United are currently fifth in the Premier League table, four points behind leaders Liverpool, who will head to Old Trafford in the league next weekend.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side will attempt to return to winning ways when they take on Atalanta BC in a key Champions League contest on Wednesday night.
