Is Pogba United's first-choice penalty taker?

During the Norwegian's spell in charge, we have been awarded three penalties and each of them was converted by the player involved in the incident. Jesse Lingard was tripped before firing home against Cardiff City in Ole's opening fixture and Juan Mata kept his nerve from 12 yards after VAR confirmed he was fouled against Reading in the Emirates FA Cup.

Pogba opened the scoring against Brighton when he was shoved by Gaetan Bong inside the box and smashed past David Button in front of the Stretford End.

Anthony Martial netted from the spot in the derby against Manchester City back in November, after he was up-ended by Ederson, but Pogba has four penalties to his name since the start of the campaign.
