Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba, has said manager, Jose Mourinho “does extreme things,” and deserves to be called, ‘The Special One.’
Mourinho won three trophies in his first year at Old Trafford, as United returned to the Champions League via the Europa League route.
Pogba says he has been impressed working under the Portuguese, even if his approach to management can be unique.
“He is The Special One because he wins,” the France international said to Sky Germany.
“Sometimes he does some extreme things. Against Chelsea, he changed our tactical formation just before the game. We had never trained it before but it worked out well. That was special.
“He won three trophies in his first year, that’s special as well. He deserves his name.
“He’s a manager who is really close with the players.
“Personally, he welcomed me, we had a talk and I had a good feeling from the first moment on. He trusted and defended me. That’s all a player needs.”
