Deschamps distance self from Pogba-Mourinho feud

“I’m not worried at all. I’m definitely not Jose Mourinho and I’m not going to meddle in their relationship,” Deschamps said.

“Everything is clear with Paul. He knows each time why he’s here and what I expect from him.”

United are languishing down in 10th place in the Premier League after seven matches, and suffered a shock defeat by second-tier Derby County in the League Cup last week.

Pogba, a key member of France’s World Cup-winning side in Russia, also appeared to get under Mourinho’s skin after their recent draw with Wolves by saying United should attack more.

“There’s what’s happening at their clubs but that doesn’t just depend on them,” said Deschamps.

“You can’t separate individual performance from a team performance with certain clubs who can go through a spell where results aren’t as good.

“That goes for all the players. You have to take that into consideration, but the set-up is different when they join us in the France squad.”
