Pogba and Rooney Are Worse Under Mourinho!

If Wayne Rooney looks like a ghost of a player who used to wear a Manchester United shirt, Paul Pogba isn't exactly shaping up as the exorcist who is going to drive the demons from him. The spirit of Euro 2004, of being England's record goalscorer and dovetailing perfectly with Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez in 2009 isn't coming back to life any time soon.

Rooney looks to be in a worse state under Jose Mourinho than he was when Louis van Gaal was running United while Pogba looks utterly lost. Mourinho has a decision to make before he picks his team to face Leicester City on Saturday.

At the moment, it is difficult to see where Rooney fits into this United side. Not just in trying to deduce his best position, but on form.

Whether this is down to his own state of mind or Mourinho's lack of clarity is unknown.

But there is little doubt there are burning issues. Rooney is a national treasure and obsession whether with England or United. He is always under scrutiny perhaps because he is the leading English player of his generation.
