Mourinho admits Man Utd Substitution dilemma

Jose Mourinho has admitted to facing a dilemma at Manchester United as he endeavours to get the most out of Paul Pogba.

The France international has returned to the fold after missing 12 games through injury.

Pogba had been in impressive form for the Red Devils prior to picking up an untimely knock and the challenge facing Mourinho is bringing him back to that level without pushing him too hard.

That is proving to be quite the challenge, though, with United handing their £89 million midfielder 90 minutes against Brighton as they toiled to a narrow 1-0 victory at Old Trafford.

Mourinho told reporters after that encounter: “It’s hard for me to be on the bench and don’t know when Pogba has to be changed.

“I want to play [Marouane] Fellaini earlier, I want to play Fellaini with Pogba.

“But then I don’t know if Pogba is happy to be on the pitch under the fatigue line, or if the fatigue line has been reached.

“It’s hard to be on the bench with these dilemmas.”
