And Mourinho reacted angrily when asked if he could give a return date for Pogba after their 1-0 win against Tottenham.
Mourinho said: “I have no idea [when he will return].
"Honestly. I am not in control of his recovery process. He is not training with me. He is on individual work and when a player is on individual work I cannot predict.

Some sections of the United fans were heard booing when Mourinho substituted Marcus Rashford for match-winner Anthony Martial.
But Mourinho brushed off the jeers and said that supporters can do what they want because they have paid for a ticket.
Mourinho added: “They pay the ticket they can do what they want.
