POGBA-HIMOVIC: STATS THAT PROVE THIS IS THE MOST SUPERB COLLABO IN WORLD FOOTBALL

The collabo between Paul 'Ikenna' Pogba and Zlatan 'Ekwueme' Ibrahimovic is reminiscent of how smoothly the popular Nigerian food - 'Eba' and Okro soup glides through the 'throat' into the stomach.

Having struggled slightly in the early phase of the season, the duo have combined to devastating effect recently, with Zlatan notching 24 goals(more than any other attacker in the EPL) and 6 assists, and Pogba creating the most chances for United this season.

Pogba is also ranked joint top across Europe's top 5 leagues, along with Kevin De Bruyne and Lionel Messi for most successful through balls this season(12) .

The interesting fact is that Pogba has notched 5 assists for Manchester United this season and they have ALL been for Zlatan.

The Pogba-Himovic collabo should have gotten more hits by now had Zlatan finished off all the chances created for him by Pogba, during the short period his scoring boots went missing. However, it still doesn't change the fact that Zlatan is the 'soup' to Pogba's 'eba' and the duo would have been incomplete without each other.

Slowly but surely, the swagger days of United are coming  back.
