Pogba has reiterated that he is happy at the club and he is playing well but the media is judging him on his goals and assists.
Paul Pogba has scored 6 goals and added 4 assists this season for Manchester United. These are not very bad numbers for a box-to-box midfielder but the media expects him to score way more because of his transfer fee.

The French midfielder moved to United this summer for £89.3 million from Juventus. With such a big fee, much is expected from the 24-year old. Pogba has been an essential part of Jose Mourinho’s teams this year and will continue to be a part of them as the Reds push for a top four finish.
Pogba obviously has room to grow and has shown signs of his quality. The 6 foot 3 midfielder is strong, quick, and creative. He has played alongside Herrera or Carrick in a deep-lying position as well as in front of Carrick and Herrera. His versatility will be welcomed by Jose Mourinho for the years to come. Manchester United fans hope Pogba can help them achieve their spot in the Champions League next season.
