Sell Pogba, sign Messi! Mourinho offered bold transfer advice after 'diabolical' deals

Former Manchester United star Willie Morgan believes there is no way back for the disruptive Frenchman at Old Trafford as feud talk rumbles on

Jose Mourinho has seen his Manchester United transfer dealings branded “diabolical”, with selling Paul Pogba and buying Lionel Messi considered by Willie Morgan to be the Portuguese’s only hope of turning things around.

The Red Devils endured a summer of frustration in the recruitment market during the last window, with the club unable to bring any centre-half reinforcements on board despite making additions in that area a top priority.

Mourinho is, as a result, having to make do with those already at his disposal, many of whom he has snapped up for big money since taking the reins at Old Trafford in the summer of 2016.
