Paul Pogba has claimed Manchester United's first Player of the Month award of 2017/18 after enjoying an impressive August.

More than 160,000 fans voted in our poll on Twitter and, after a close battle, Pogba came out on top as he narrowly beat team-mates Nemanja Matic and Phil Jones to take the accolade.

It was an unforgettable month for Pogba, who scored two goals, recorded one assist and was named Man of the Match twice as his influential displays helped the Reds claim maximum points from the first three league games to end the month top of the table.

The Frenchman scored in the 4-0 victories over West Ham United and Swansea City, set up Anthony Martial's effort against the Swans and his eye-catching performance at the Liberty Stadium earned him Man of the Match before he was also selected as our star player in the 2-0 win over Leicester at Old Trafford.

His brilliant effort against the Hammers on the opening weekend ensured he entered an exclusive goalscorers club, while his stunning clipped finish against Swansea also won the club's Goal of the Month prize for August too.

To top off a fine first month of the campaign, the 24-year-old scooped the Europa League's Player of the Season award for 2016/17 following his significant contribution to United's success in the competition last term.

Pogba also claimed the final Player of the Month prize of last season in May after ending last term in fine form, including a goal in the Europa League final success over Ajax in Stockholm. Congratulations Paul!
