Mourinho Will Not Be Drawn On Pogba

The Blues held firm to frustrate their Old Trafford hosts in Wayne Rooney’s testimonial as they continued their pre-season preparations. I don’t speak about their players but the reality is we are going to sign one more player.

‘I think so, ‘ said Neville on SSN HQ, insisting the £100m would be well spent. He re-iterated that at half time. Sir Bobby Charlton has scored 249 goals in 758 apps and that is one record that looks very likely to be broken by Wayne Rooney this season.

“There have been rumours the former Everton striker would take up a lucrative offer from China or the United States when his deal expires”, reports the paper.

Jose Mourinho delivers his messages in a calm but clear fashion, says Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney. United’s best chance arguably came a few minutes later, though a low Luke Shaw drive bounced off John Stones on its way behind.

In the second half, former Everton midfielder Marouane Fellaini headed at Joel Robles.

An immediate rapport between Ibrahimovic and Rooney was the most promising aspect of a United performance that showed the rigidity of the Louis van Gaal era will not disappear at a stroke.

When or if a deal for Pogba, heavily linked with a world record £100million return to United from Juventus, materialises remains to be seen.

Rio, of course, never had the opportunity to play under the three-time Premier League victor and asked if Mourinho gets in players faces.

Paul Pogba is on the verge of becoming the most expensive player in history as Manchester United reach an agreement with Juventus to sign the France global.

“He is a player I always wanted to have in my side”. United’s first game of the league season is on August 14 when they play away against Bournemouth. The match ended 0-0 and was deemed as one of the most boring matches ever by the majority of people.

Mourinho made a glut of substitutions on the hour-mark as Memphis Depay replaced Ibrahimovic in attack. Bastian Schweinsteiger, whose United future is uncertain, was conspicuous by his complete absence from the teamsheet.
