Manchester United superstar Paul Pogba says they can still beat Barcelona in the Champions League quarterfinal.
Having lost the home leg of their tie 1-0 thanks to a Luke Shaw own goal, Pogba believes they can go to Spain and klap Lionel Messi and company.
Pogba explains: “Of course [we can knock them out].
“If you don’t believe that you can beat them, you just let them go through.
“Of course we believe that we can beat them.
“We are Manchester United. Even if they are Barcelona, we are Manchester United and we play in the Champions League like they do and we can go through, of course.”

For that to happen, though, manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says they have to think about their miracle job in Paris where they came from 2-0 behind in the home leg to beat PSG.
He says: “The PSG performance gives us hope and believe we can do it, but we are playing against the favourites.
“It will be a bigger achievement winning that one because, with the history of Barcelona, they are not used to losing at home but we can do it. No doubt about it.”
Next up for United, though, is a visit from West Ham in the Premier League on Saturday. Currently in sixth place on the log, United are three points outside the top four and in desperate need of a win.
