Mourinho on Pogba relationship: “Don’t say bull****”
Mourinho’s decision to bench Pogba and haul him off in two of United’s last three fixtures has sparked talk of unrest, with it suggested that a divide in the camp has formed between star midfielder and manager.
The Portuguese coach has, however, told reporters when quizzed on rumours of a rift: "When you say 'a lot of speculation' you should say a lot of lies. Because I accept and Paul accepts that he has not been playing well in the last few matches. But that's all.”
“It is my problem, it is the player's problem. A big lie that our relationship is not good, a big lie that we don't communicate, a big lie that we don't agree with his positions and his involvement in the dynamic of the team. So, be objective and say what we all know: in the last couple of matches he didn't play well. Period. End of story.”
“You are paid to read the game and explain the game. Don’t say bull****.”
