Manchester United announced Paul Pogba's sensational Old Trafford return by using the hashtag 'Pogback' and it appears they can now wheel it out again.
Pogba, who has been out of action since picking up a hamstring injury against Basel on September 12, has returned to Manchester United's training ground after training in Miami.
The 24-year-old Frenchman was given permission by United's medical staff to travel to Florida to recover from his injury problem in warmer climes.

But it seems Pogba is now close to returning to Jose Mourinho's plans with Jesse Lingard revealing he is back in England.
Lingard videoed his team-mate mimicking his celebration which sees him pretending to play a flute.
The Manchester United winger first performed the imaginative routine after scoring against Middlesbrough in March 2017 and explained he done it after hearing Drake's song 'Portland' from his 'More Life' playlist.
Lingard performed the celebration again on Tuesday when the England star netted a double against Swansea at the Liberty Stadium.
In Thursday's video, Pogba can be seen prancing around with a smile on his face while Lingard is singing before hugging 'his boy'.
Mourinho has remained tight lipped as to when Pogba will return to the first team and has previously said he didn't know why the Frenchman was sent to Miami.
'I have no idea,' said Mourinho about Pogba's recovery. 'If you ask me "do you think he can play in the next match in the Premier League against Tottenham", I don't know.
'I am not telling you no and then he plays. You will say I lied to you but I really don't know. I expect Eric Bailly to be back next week but I cannot tell you about (Marouane) Fellaini or Pogba because I have no idea.
'You have to ask Dr Steve McNally - he is responsible for that. I am in control of the players that are available, not the players that are not available.'
It is not yet know if Pogba will play any part of Manchester United's next fixture against Tottenham at the weekend but Mourinho will want him back as soon as possible with injuries mounting.
Pogba's fellow central midfielder Marouane Fellaini and Michael Carrick have also been on the injury table while Marcos Rojo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic remain sidelined.
One man who appears to be back in contention is Eric Bailly as the centre back took part in full training with his team-mates while Pogba trained away from the group.
