José Mourinho staged Paul Pogba bust-up for the cameras – French journalist

Speaking to RMC, journalist Julien Laurens claims that José Mourinho knew that any bust-up in training with Paul Pogba would be caught on camera.

“Sky picked this footage up, they have the right to film 3 or 4 training sessions a season per club I think. This morning he (José Mourinho) knew that the cameras were at training from the Premier League and Sky. Mourinho knew that the cameras were coming this morning, he knew very well that Pogba was going to come and shake the hands of Michael Carrick, the other assistant, and then he would arrive in front of Mourinho. Mourinho knew all of this, that the cameras would be on him, and he chose that moment to say something to Pogba that quite clearly didn’t please him.”
