Ian Darke says Paul Pogba's tenure at Man United has run its course and the club needs to move on from him.
MANCHESTER -- Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said Paul Pogba is being kept out by a fresh ankle injury rather than the problem which sidelined him for more than two months.
The midfielder needs an operation to clear up the new injury and is expected to miss around a month, including both legs of the Carabao Cup semifinal with Manchester City.
"Paul came back after a long spell out, played two games but couldn't go to Burnley [on Dec. 28]," Solskjaer told a news conference on Friday.

"He felt his ankle was sore. We did a scan and it's not the same injury, it's a different injury and when you get that scan you consult your own medical people as well.
"You want the best second opinion and the advice was to have it [the operation] done. It's not a major one and probably as I said three or four weeks [out].
