Manchester United star midfielder and World Cup winning Champion, Paul Pogba was sidelined for two consecutive games after his way below-par performance against Southampton.
Paul has been given a kick in the teeth by his Manager with Mourinho trying to make Pogba pay for his misfitting actions.
While Pogba was substituted late in 70th minute against a 2-2 draw with Arsenal, the Frenchman was not worthy enough of warming his body on the pitch rather than warming the bench, sitting for the whole game in United’s 4-1 win against Fulham.
Paul Pogba will get an opportunity to prove himself against Valencia when Mourinho starts off with a weakened side having already qualified for Round of 16 of Champions League.
The Frenchman seems to be used as a scapegoat for team’s poor season and Pogba will be determined enough to amend the treatment he is receiving from Mourinho.
A source close to Pogba said, ”Paul is confused because he’s not the only one to have struggled to produce his best in recent weeks.”
“But he feels like he’s been singled out for special treatment and been made an example of.”
“It’s all a bit humiliating considering his status in the game.”
A player gifted with talent and capable of producing miraculous shots surely is an asset and Mourinho needs to keep good terms with Paul if he wants Pogba to stay in United after January.
