Manchester United 'unsure whether to appeal Paul Pogba red card'

United 'unsure whether to appeal Pogba red'

Manchester United have reportedly yet to decide whether to launch an appeal against the red card shown to star midfielder Paul Pogba at the weekend.

The France international was dismissed 16 minutes from time in the 3-1 win over Arsenal for stamping on opposition defender Hector Bellerin.

Pogba faces missing United's next three games as things stand, including next weekend's meeting with league leaders Manchester City at Old Trafford.

There is still a chance the £89m ace could play in that huge showdown in six days' time, however, as The Sun claims that the Red Devils are tempted to appeal the decision.

Pogba believes that he caught Bellerin accidentally due to the Spaniard pulling out of a 50-50 challenge, though if the Football Association deems the plea frivolous his suspension could be extended to a fourth game.
