<\/p>\nHe said he does not regret it.<\/p>\n
The Frenchman also insisted that he had not been negatively affected by his manager, Jose Mourinho\u2019s decision to strip him of the club\u2019s vice captaincy.<\/p>\n
Pogba was punished by Mourinho in September, when the Portuguese asked him to stop parading himself as the vice-captain.<\/p>\n
Recent reports had suggested that Mourinho was unhappy with Pogba for continuing to push for a move to Barcelona, but the former Juventus star maintains he is fully committed to United.<\/p>\n
Pogba spoke ahead Man United clash with Juventus in the Champions League on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Asked how he felt about Mourinho\u2019s decision, Pogba told press conference, \u201cIt didn\u2019t affect me. I\u2019m still playing and really happy to play. The manager is the one who chooses who is going to be captain<\/p>\n
\u201cIf he takes the armband away, it doesn\u2019t change anything for me. I just want to play, perform and give my best for the team, the fans and the club and that\u2019s it. It didn\u2019t really touch me or affect me.<\/p>\n
\u201cChoosing to come back to United, first of all, was my choice. Juve were playing Champions League and Manchester were playing Europa.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t regret my choice. I know Manchester in the last few years haven\u2019t been at the top, but I came back to help the team and get them back to the top. We have a lot of goals.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor me, it\u2019s not changed, I don\u2019t regret it at all. I\u2019m very happy to come back to United and I\u2019m sure we will come back to the best.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
