At first, the relationship between the coach and the French player was good, but the United player does not know when the dialogue was broken.
José Mourinho he treated the players as if they “did not exist” during his time at the helm of Manchester United, according to French midfielder Paul Pogba.
Pogba was one of the first signings of Mourinho after taking office at Old Trafford in 2016, but at the end of his term, their relationship was broken, with the couple involved in a fight during a training session and the player then stripped of the captain’s badge.
“What I have now with [el actual entrenador Ole Gunnar Solskjaer] it’s different, he wouldn’t go against the players, “Pogba told Sky Sports.” I wouldn’t go against the players. “
“Maybe Ole wouldn’t choose them, but it’s not like leaving them out as if they no longer exist. That’s the difference between Mourinho and Ole.
“At one point I had a great relationship with Mourinho, everyone saw it, and the next day you don’t know what happened. That’s the weird thing I had with Mourinho, and I can’t tell you because I don’t know either. “.
Pogba overcame his coach after helping the Units to win 3-1 al Tottenham of Mourinho Sunday.
after, Mourinho responded to the accusation of Solskjaer that Son Heung-Min had tricked the referee into nullifying Edinson Cavani’s goal in the first half and the Portuguese also noted that Pogba he should have been kicked out by an elbow blow on Serge Aurier.
However, Pogba said that Mourinho he was just trying to divert attention from his team’s exercise and a result that leaves the Spurs struggling to qualify for the Champions League of next season.
“I don’t know what happened, I’m sure Mourinho said something that would make people talk, that’s what he does,” Pogba said.
“We got the result we wanted, Ole knows it and we enjoyed that moment because we know Mourinho and we know what he likes. We don’t need this [guerra de palabras], We just focus on ourselves.
“We won the match, he lost the match and he doesn’t want to talk about the match, he wants to talk about someone’s dad, that’s what he does. Everyone knows him, he’s very Mourinho.”
