Manchester United have had mixed success with recent marquee signings, so will Paul Pogba shine like Robin van Persie or flop like Angel Di Maria?

All of this week has been dominated by talk of a dispute between Jose Mourinho and Paul Pogba.

Pogba was a Manchester United statement signing in 2016 but a difficult spell saw him dropped for their Champions League clash with Sevilla, with young Scott McTominay selected instead.

The France international was asked to replace the injured Ander Herrera after only 17 minutes in Spain and, impressed by his reaction, Mourinho had a message for his £89million midfielder.

The Portuguese said at his press conference on Friday that Pogba has to win his trust because he does not pick his starting XI based on how big the name, price or salary is.
