United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised Paul Pogba for his performance against Leipzig.
Questions have lingered on how to get the best out of the World Cup winner, who has often failed to stand out when featuring deeper in a midfield double pivot at United.
But he produced his best performance of the season in midweek, playing on the left side of a midfield diamond, and Solskjaer was asked about Pogba's best position in his pre-Arsenal press conference on Friday morning.
"Paul can do everything on a football pitch, more or less," the United coach said. "He can play long passes, get in the box, play combinations outside the box.
"But he played really well, he did impact the game. We love to see him driving forward and affecting the game. What has been the case after being injured and ill for so long is getting back and the fitter he is the more he can do."

Police have dispersed a group of around 25 people who travelled to a picturesque valley and set up a camp 'to see the moon'.
Contrary to Covid-19 restrictions, some travelled to the Goyt Valley, near Buxton, from as far a field as London.
Buxton Police revealed the incident on Facebook, sparking a string of tongue-in-cheek comments from the public.
One Facebook poster said: "Imagine travelling from London to see the moon you could see from London."
People from Manchester were also there, police added.
It's understood the gathering was to catch a glimpse and take photographs of the moon on Halloween.

Tonight's moon - a rare Hunter's Blue Moon - will be the last full moon to fall on Halloween until 2039.
The Goyt Valley - part of the Peak District National Park - is also reputed to be the setting for a number of spooky stories.
Those present were 'given advice' by police and sent away from the area.

On Facebook, Buxton Police said: "Police have dispersed a large group of around 25 people from a woodland area in the Goyt Valley.
"They had set up a camp and had travelled from as far as London, Liverpool and Manchester to see the Moon.
"Suitable advice given and sent on their way."
The second full moon of the month is known as a Blue Moon.
A Hunter's Moon gets its name from traditional hunters who would use the full moon's light to stock up on food ahead of winter.
Today it symbolises dreams and desires.


themanchestereveningnews--2020-10-31--The data that shows why Boris has put country into emergency lockdown

Bleak data showing how the NHS could be overwhelmed before Christmas has driven Boris Johnson 's decision to place the entire country in lockdown .
Warning that if the current rate of infection continued doctors would be forced to choose which patients to treat , Mr Johnson once again banned all but essential shopping , socialising and work – with exemptions for schools , colleges and universities .
The decision to ramp up restrictions comes as rates soar across much of Europe , leading to new forms of lockdown in Belgium , France and Germany .
At the Downing Street @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on scientific modelling if no action is taken , showed that in November hospital patient numbers would exceed those in the peak of the first wave .
And even excess 'surge ' beds on acute wards created by cancelling non-urgent operations and by using the Nightingale hospitals , would run out by early December .
Mr Johnson said failure to act now would be a 'medical and moral disaster ' , adding : `` If we allow those lines to grow in the way they are projected to grow the risk is that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the NHS will not be there for us and for our families . ''
Chris Whitty , chief medical officer for England , told the press conference that the number of people in NHS beds in the north west was 'coming close ' to the occupancy at the peak of the first wave .
He said other areas were not quite at this point , adding : `` But it is increasing in every area and if we do nothing the inevitable result is that these numbers will go up and eventually exceed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of this year . ''
Describing an 'accelerating line ' of patients now being hospitalised with the virus , Mr Whitty showed a chart detailing which hospitals are already treating more than 100 Covid-19 patients .
This included Greater Manchester 's Pennine Acute Trust – which has already surpassed the number of virus inpatients of the first wave peak .
Stockport , Salford and Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust are all treating more than 100 Covid-19 patients .
He said there were around 50,000 new cases of Covid-19 a day – 'and rising @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seen in the over-sixties , the population most at risk for hospitalisation .
Sir Patrick Vallance , meanwhile , said scientific models showed that if the rate of infection continued on its current trajectory , it could be 'twice as bad ' compared to the first wave .

Describing an 'accelerating line' of patients now being hospitalised with the virus, Mr Whitty showed a chart detailing which hospitals are already treating more than 100 Covid-19 patients.

It means the R rate is now above one everywhere.

Deal for teenage star confirmed
FK Partizan have confirmed Filip Stevanovic will join Manchester City in the January transfer window.
The 18-year-old winger has been linked with a number of European clubs, but MEN Sport reported earlier this month that City were leading the pursuit.

“The transfer of Filip Stevanovic to one of the largest European clubs is a significant confirmation of the good and hard work of all club structures.”
Walker drops hint over return to former club
Kyle Walker scored the winner for Manchester City in their 1-0 victory over Sheffield United on Saturday and dropped a hint on a potential return to Bramall Lane.
The right-back refused to celebrate his goal having previously played for the Blades earlier in his career and the England international hinted he hopes to one day wear the Sheffield United shirt again.
“They [Sheffield United] have done it for a number of seasons now, they're well drilled, everyone knows their position, it's a tough team to come and break down,” Walker said , explaining how tough a test Sheffield United gave City.
“Luckily I came up with the goal through the bodies and we got the three points.
“My mum and dad live here so if I celebrated they'd have got a lot of stick. I'm a Sheffield United fan so I couldn’t. When I played for Aston Villa my first game for Villa was here and I scored with my left peg which was a rare goal as well.
