A dazed Paul Pogba said his operation on an ankle injury left him unsure if he was drunk or high – but he did at least confirm: I m still alive .
Manchester United midfielder Pogba has had a difficult time with injury problems this season, with his fitness issues restricting him to only seven appearances in the Premier League.
He made his return after almost three months out on December 22, playing a part in two matches before being laid low once again, with specialists determining surgery was required.
The France international went under the knife on Tuesday and came out the other side unsurprisingly feeling a little discombobulated, so much so he says he almost made a terrible mistake with a urine sample.
I don t even know if I m okay or if I m high or sober – I don t look sober, don t ask me if it [the operation] went well because I don t know, he said in a video posted to his Instagram stories.
I can t really feel my toes but I m still alive, that s the good news.
After the operation, we ve still got the smile, we re blessed, I m still alive, everything went well. They gave me something, I don t know what it was, but it feels good!
