Mour’s bait for Pogba

an unused substitute as United ripped through Fulham in front of an appreciative Old Trafford.

And the United boss insisted the club record signing has a point to prove when he makes a first start in three matches against Valencia in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

“He has to play with the same mentality as the team is playing,” said Mourinho, when asked what the midfielder had to do to get back in the side.

“Paul can be a fantastic player, he has the potential to be a fantastic player.

“Against Valencia, he is going to start and have a fantastic football game to play and show everybody how good he is.”

United moved into sixth place in the table with the 4-1 victory, a performance that delighted Mourinho.
