Aston Villa have been potentially handed a boost, with Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer revealing that Paul Pogba is set to be out until December.
Pogba has been out since the beginning of October, and Solskjaer confirmed after the win against Norwich City that the Frenchman will be out until December, potentially meaning he misses the game with Aston Villa.
Solskjaer said, via the Evening Standard:
I don’t think we’ll see Paul before December. He’ll be out for a while.
He needs time to fully recover. I don’t think he’ll be back, maybe for Sheffield United after the international break, but probably it will be December before we can see him.
I’m not a doctor but there is an injury there that needs healing. Yes, it’s his ankle.

This could be a huge boost for Villa, especially with United’s not so brilliant form at the minute.
United picked up a good win against Norwich at the weekend, however, so Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could have finally sorted things out.
However, Pogba being potentially unavailable is a huge boost for Dean Smith’s side.
