Pogba No Longer Premier League’s ‘worst Player’, Jokes Man Utd Boss Mourinho by timosky1(m): 10:03am On Oct 21, 2016

Jose Mourinho quipped back at those questioning Paul Pogba’s recent form as he playfully suggested that the Frenchman’s starring role in Manchester United’s 4-1 win over Fenerbahce saw him shake off his “worst player of the Premier League” tag.

Pogba scored twice as United comfortably disposed of Fenerbahce in the Europa League, with his second an exquisite first-time strike into the top-left corner from 25 yards out.

Robin van Persie netted a late consolation on his return to Old Trafford, but the match was already won by then and Mourinho reflected afterwards on Pogba’s display in the wake of individual criticism he attracted with a poor showing in Monday’s 0-0 draw at Liverpool.

“Two days ago he was the worst player of the Premier League and 48 hours later he is phenomenal,” Mourinho said to BT Sport. “Listen, he needs time.

“I was in Italy, I have worked in Italy. I know the pace, intensity and characteristics of the league well.

“To be in Italy for four, five years and then come back to the Premier League is not easy. I was not expecting him to adapt with click of the fingers.

United took their foot off the gas a little once Jesse Lingard had put them 4-0 up just after the break and, although Mourinho was frustrated by that, he acknowledged it was an understandable consequence of making numerous changes to the team.

The United boss said: “They [Fenerbahce] came with a good defensive plan and stopped us for the first periods of the game but then the first two goals – two clear penalties – opened the door for quality and I think we played well for periods.

“With four goals we stopped, which is natural and then they try to have a reaction. I’m never happy to concede a goal, especially if the goal is not a perfect one.

“It came down to a lack of concentration, but that is the nature of the players and the nature of lots of changes. That’s acceptable.
