 United have responded positively to their back-to-back defeats to Brighton and Tottenham by winning three successive away games

 Pogba, who scored twice and set up Anthony Martial for the other goal in the 3-0 win against Young Boys which gave Untied a flying start to their Champions League campaign, said confidence is improving, the team is mentally stronger and the competition for places is keeping players on their toes

 "Obviously when you win you are happier, mentally we are stronger we get better, we change the team but even the players who come in feel already like they are in the team, and that's all we need," said Pogba

 "It's a very important win because it was the first game in the Champions League, we needed to start well and we did

We had the result we wanted, maybe the performance should be better, but we have the result and three points

"  Pogba's double – the first a superb shot and the second a penalty – steadied Untied after an anxious first half an hour on the artificial pitch at the Stade de Suisse

 And he thanked manager Mourinho and his team-mates for allowing him to carry on taking penalties after he had a spot kick saved by Joe Hart at Burnley

 Pogba said: "I didn't have any doubts about taking the penalty. I know I missed that one against Burnley

 "Joe Hart got me that time but I won't make the same mistake. "I had the confidence of the players, they let me take it and I should thank them for this, as well as the manager – he let me take it as well

" Any tension between Pogba and Mourinho appears to be easing with the United manager praising his performance and his guts to take what was a vital penalty

 "I like the player to have the courage to take a penalty after one that he missed," said Mourinho

"He missed against Burnley. The next penalty the team has, he is there to take it, to make it 2-0 and to kill the game for us

" Pogba is already on course for a personal best goals tally for a season. He scored nine and six respectively in his first two seasons back at Old Trafford following an £89m move from Juventus where he twice managed 10 in a campaign

 But after his double against Bern took his total to four in the first six games of the season – three of them penalties – the World Cup winner wants more

 He said: "I am happy that the goals I scored were decisive in the win. If I can do it I will try to help the team as much as possible

If I can score a goal or make an assist that will be great."  Pogba was not the only United star that shone in Switzerland as Portuguese defender Diogo Dalot made an eye-catching first senior appearance

 "For a debut he did really well," said Pogba. "He suited the team and I'm very happy to see him play like that

All the players were all really proud of him."

Breaking News - Rodgers hails Griffths for shrugging off speeding conviction - Duration: 4:53.

Brendan Rodgers hailed Leigh Griffiths for shrugging off a speeding conviction to drive Celtic to victory over Rosenborg

The Parkhead boss has warned the Scotland striker he has to work harder at his game on and off the pitch to become a first pick for club and country

And Griffiths responded by scoring a vital Europa League winner against the Norwegian champions with just three minutes to play

Found guilty of speeding at Dundee Justice of the Peace Court hours before kick-off, the 28-year-old was fined £200 and given three penalty points

A man in a hurry on the pitch as well as off, the striker shrugged off his brush with the law to claim the winner eleven minutes after taking to the pitch

'He seems to have this in-built brain to deal with all this stuff,' said Rodgers of the matchwinner

'Probably a lot of players, what happens in their world can be a real distraction

He learns to deal with it. 'He's a great boy, we all love him and I know I can rely on him, when I put him on the pitch, that he always has the possibility to score

It was a great night for him and the team and our first three points.' Rodgers used his pre-match press conference to reiterate his warning that Griffiths has to do more to adapt to the modern role of the striker

Speaking as the former HIbs man justified the decision to grant him a four year contract last week Rodgers struck a conciliatory tone adding: 'It is not just Leigh

It is every player. Every player needs to improve. 'Every player has a responsibility to get better, especially in the top end of the field

What we know about Leigh is that he can score goals. You fancy him in a game like that

'If there is an opportunity and a chance he can take it. It was the only chance that he had in the game

'We got the ball into the box, he anticipated it and it was a great finish, to hit it into the ground and get the winning goal

'Whether he plays or on the bench he wants to play for Celtic. He's got that hunger and he realises at 28 when you've got that competition then he has to fight

He does that. 'He is 28 and has signed a four year deal. We still think there is a lot of improvement that he can make

Not just him, but the rest of the players.' For 87 minutes Celtic struggled to break down a Rosenborg side boasting nine wins in their last eleven games

Dogged and organised the goal came as a relief to a home crowd growing increasingly frustrated

'I was very happy with the goal. It was a great win in relation to our spirit in the game and our persitance to keep going to the very end

'We were playing against a Rosenborg team who have nine games and drawn two since we last faced them so they came with a real high level of confidence and they surprised us in the first 15 to 20 minutes by playing a diamond

'But once we found a balance to defend against that we started to come into the game and created some chances particularly down the left side

'But without being at the top of our game we kept going and that's what I asked them to do after the game last week

We have to find a way of winning when we are not playing as well as we would like and the players did that tonight

' Rosenborg coach Rini Coolen felt his team deserved a point for an organised display

RB Salzburg - Celtic's next opponents on October 4 - beat RB Leipzig in the other game and Coolen admitted: 'We are disappointed to lose it in the end

I think we deserved a little more. I can be happy and proud of the boys tonight. We had a different game plan than we usually do and it worked pretty well

'If I look back, I think we could have done better defensively at the goal. It's a second ball (to Griffiths) and we need to be there

These things make a difference at this level.'
