Writer's picture: AdminAdmin

Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba, could be forced to miss the FA Cup clash with Reading, but Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku will start.

Pogba was on the receiving end of a heavy challenge from Jonjo Shelvey, during the 2-0 win over Newcastle on Saturday and may be ruled out of the third-round tie at Old Trafford on Saturday lunchtime.

“I’m not sure if Paul is going to be ready. He got a knock against Newcastle.

“If [Marouane] Fellaini gets through the session [on Friday] it’s more or less a full squad. There will be a few changes and they’ll get a chance. Some of them are itching now to play of course.

“Lukaku and Sanchez will start. That’s important for them because they need more game time,” caretaker manager OIe Gunnar Solskjaer told a news conference on Friday.

Chris Smalling and Marcos Rojo will miss out through injury, but Sergio Romero, Matteo Darmian and Fred could all start against Reading.
