A sustained source of conversation in determining where and why Manchester United's season has gotten off to a relatively slow start, it appears as if Jose Mourinho and Paul Pogba want more questions regarding their professional relationship asked.
Generally assumed that the pair do not get on with one another very well, gestures such as Pogba being handed the captaincy during United's opening day defeat of Leicester City have come to be seen as increasingly cursory in recent weeks.
Despite playing relatively well, Pogba, on account of his astounding ability, performances during this summer's World Cup win with France and his astonishing price, tends to become the focal point for what are United's failings in a more general sense this season.
Making a variety of remarks in the media that could - at least - be construed as offensive toward Mourinho, one suspects the Portuguese errs on the side of caution in such regards, and assumes the worst.
Footage released by Sky Sports this afternoon from United's training session appears to demonstrate both Pogba and Mourinho on less than agreeable terms.
JUST IN! 😳

Quite cordial compared to the kind of footage one could see of Roberto Mancini and Mario Balotelli in years gone by, it nevertheless looks like some sort of intervention will be required in United are to move forward with both men in their respective jobs.
