Pogha gets replacement

By News Express on September 16, 2017

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho says Paul Pogba will miss “a few matches” after suffering a hamstring injury.

The influential Frenchman, 24, had to be withdrawn after just 19 minutes during United's Champions League victory over Basel on Tuesday after sustaining the muscular problem.

Pogba, who has played a key role in United's unbeaten start to the new Premier League season, was pictured leaving Old Trafford after the game on crutches.

Mourinho has confirmed the Frenchman is definitely ruled out of Sunday's league clash against Everton and expects the midfielder to sit out of a couple of other games.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                “I don’t know,” said Mourinho when asked how long Pogba would be out for ahead of the Everton game.
“I just know that it’s a muscular injury, he’s out for the weekend match, that’s the only match I’m thinking about. I don’t think further than that.

“So for me, it’s simple and objective: He’s not playing this weekend. I just know it’s a hamstring problem.

“I don’t know how many [games], but we are going to play without Pogba for a few matches but we have other players.”

“The Super Eagles won 2-1 in Zambia, now you finish the job in Nigeria, not draw, yes, you win and already in World Cup”, he predicted.
