Jose Mourinho confirms Paul Pogba will play against West Ham United
Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has confirmed that Paul Pogba will make the matchday squad for tomorrow's Premier League showdown against West Ham United.
The France international was involved in a heated argument with the club's head coach earlier in the week and this led to suggestions that he may be excluded from the Hammers trip.
However, speaking in a news conference, the Portuguese tactician confirmed that the World Cup winner will indeed take the playing field this weekend as he has a good relationship with the midfielder on the professional scale.
"Our player-manager relationship is good. Nobody trained better than Paul on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday - they trained as well [as him] - but not better. He plays tomorrow," he is quoted as saying by The Mirror.
Despite this, Mourinho stressed that no player is bigger than the club and Pogba would not have made the squad for the weekend game, had he not put the effort in training.
