Twitter reactions on Leicester vs Man Utd: Manchester United held on to their one-goal lead as they secured another three points.
Manchester United have climbed up to fifth place in the Premier League with a 1-0 win over Leicester City in the league.
Marcus Rashford’s goal remained the sole difference between the two sides, as Paul Pogba provided a brilliant assist for the United youngster.
With this win, Manchester United are one point ahead of Arsenal who take on Manchester City later tonight in the Premier League.
Leicester City came close to equalizing in the second half, but couldn’t beat David de Gea, who made some excellent saves to secure a clean sheet.
Here are some of the best tweets:
Fantastic goal created by Pogba and finished by Rashford enough for United. Defended well in the second half. Nine wins and a draw for Solskjaer. Incredible impact.

FT 0-1. We’ll take it. Worst performance since Ole arrived but a win’s a win. Lucky that Leicester’s finishing was poor today. Pogba very good though. Mature performance form him. Lots of other players below par. Important win for us and another one away from home. Come on!

This is the one that’ll hurt Mourinho the most. Playing badly and winning.

Phil Jones carving himself out a role as the closer, the guy who comes in to shore things up… not something that sparks joy. Will gleefully take another win and spend next to no further time thinking about this game though

All over at the King Power. 1-0 to United. Nine wins from 10 and still unbeaten under Solskjaer. Moment of real quality from Pogba and Rashford enough in end #lcfc #mufc

Win ugly.
Another Fergie trait that Ole has picked up.— Sav (@jonmikesav8) February 3, 2019
Ole doing a classic Fergie by shithousing a 1-0 win away from home.

Pogba brilliant today for @ManUtd again but Matic outstanding and key to the way they play now. Gives freedom to players in front of him to go and express themselves whilst protecting the centre backs.

Another assist for Pogba. People in the media giving him stick recently for some reason. Put some respect on His name. He was an integral part of France’s World Cup winning side, four time Serie A winner, Europa league winner…and he’s only 25 yrs old. Enjoy this thread: pic.twitter.com/VyMfTV2R6k

Scholes: “I’ve been one of Pogba’s biggest critics and I hated doing it, but the reason I was doing it is because I’ve played alongside the lad. I’ve seen over the years what a talent this player is.”
