Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has hit out at the media after the recent criticism of midfielder Paul Pogba.
Pogba has been substituted in his last two outings for United - away at Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United respectively - and there have been reports suggesting that the French international is unhappy with life at Old Trafford.
However, Mourinho has moved to tell the media to stop 'saying bullshit', as well as explaining what Pogba sees as his preferred position in the starting lineup.
At a press conference, the 55-year-old said to reporters: "I would like to tell me which position Pogba played in against Newcastle. Anyone of you want to tell me? OK, midfield, but did we play with one number six and two number eights, or two sixes and one 10?
"We played with one six and two eights. We played with [Nemanja] Matic as a six, [Jesse] Lingard on the right side of Matic and Pogba on the left side. Do you know which is Pogba's preferred system? Four-three-three. Do you know Pogba's favourite position in a 4-3-3? Eight on the left, so it's easy and honest and objective to say Paul didn't play well against Newcastle, but don't let people read things that are not true.
"You are paid to read the game and explain the game. Don't say bullshit."
Pogba has been linked with a summer transfer to Real Madrid.
