Smalling and Pogba were joined by Juan Mata and Marcus Rashford for the game, which saw all four United players attempt to eliminate one another by hitting a ball against cardboard faces on the goal line.
Once their face was hit, they were out of the game. Simple as that.
Unfortunately for Smalling, his accuracy left a lot to be desired as he crashed a shot against his own mug and could play no further part in the challenge.
Mata was next to fall out of contention as Pogba rattled a shot against him and young Rashford soon followed suit.
It's thus been confirmed that Pogba is more than able to hit some cardboard targets from some thirty yards out and if that's not worth £89 million, we don't know what is.
