Povijest sukoba Jose Mourinha, sad već bivšeg menadžera nogometne momčadi Manchester Uniteda, i Paula Pogbe, zvijezde kluba, ima vjerojatno više poglavlja nego što francuski nogometaš ima pogodaka u ovoj sezoni. Zato i ne čudi da je najskuplji nogometaš kluba s Old Trafforda bio i najsretniji kad je igračima priopćeno da je Mourinho 'bivši'.
Krivi tip

Paul Pogba has been told by Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho he will never captain the club again while the Portuguese remains in charge, according to reports on September 25, 2018, as tensions between United's star midfielder and manager continue to rise. / AFP PHOTO / Oli SCARFF / RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE.

U kolektivnu euforiju koja je u tom trenutku nastala jedini nije potpao Romelu Lukaku, tvrdi The Sun donoseći i Pogbine riječi u trenucima veselja:
"Mislio je da od mene može napraviti budalu i okrenuti navijače kontra mene. Zaje*avao se s krivim tipom!"
Na Mourinhovom mjestu do kraja sezone sjedit će Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
