Manchester United midfield general Pogba played well in the opener, and scored the goal to score the first goal of the season. After the game, Bogba’s words caused controversy. The Post bluntly said: Pogba thanked those who helped him at Manchester United, but did not mention Manchester United coach Mourinho.
In an interview, Pogba mentioned why he would become the captain of Manchester United: “Carrick and McKenna (the Manchester United first team coach) came to me (asking me become the captain), telling me a lot from Manchester United The players of the youth training team are all admiring me and have said something else.”
“Obviously, if I can push the players forward and they can trust me, the game will be easier. It’s not just a question of bringing the captain’s armband. I have to be myself. You know, a player is chosen as Captain, he will be very happy, a person will always feel more comfortable when they are happy than when they are unhappy.”
Mourinho once said that Pogba’s performance in the World Cup was due to concentration and asked why Pogba could not maintain this state in Manchester United. When Pogba talked about helping the French team win the World Cup, he took the lead in the locker room: “In the French team, we are all members of the team, standing on the same front, coach, team doctors, logisticians, and so on. The space that French players have given me to speak, allows me to express my views.”
“Everyone is pursuing the same goal, the biggest goal of which is to win the World Cup. When everyone around you wants to fight for you, the game becomes simple. The team can go further.”
“I am the World Cup champion now, but I am also Pogba. Obviously, Manchester United and France are two different teams. I still love football, I will do my best for the team. When you feel comfortable, when around When everyone trusts you, things become very simple. If you are not happy, then it doesn’t make sense. Then you can’t do everything you can.”
