Jose Mourinho's final big call as Manchester United manager was to leave Paul Pogba on the bench at Anfield two days before he was sacked in December 2018.
Their relationship had reached breaking point and so too had Mourinho’s reign at United.
The Portuguese manager will come up against the player he once labelled a ‘virus’ when United travel to Tottenham on Friday night.
Pogba is likely to be on the bench again after a six-month lay-off, but this time it will be with a clean slate under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and yet another chance to show he has a future at United.
