Paul Pogba needs to step up for Manchester United

It is the latest incident, however, between the pair.Mourinho stripped Pogba of the vice-captaincy after he publicly criticised his teams tactics in September.When questioned about the supposed dressing room row, Mourinho said on Tuesday: “I don’t play the game of the suggestions.” Seventh-placed United are eight points from a top-four place, a gap that could increase if in-form Arsenal win at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.Speaking ahead of the game, Mourinho said: “I think we are eight or nine points from fourth. I don’t think we need a miracle at all. I think we need a good run of results, I think we don’t need to waste points where we shouldn’t waste.“Before the Crystal Palace game (a goalless home draw on November 24) I said that my hopes, my targets were to be, in the end of December, in that position.“The target changed but changed in the sense of let’s try to close the distance as much as we can and try to be by the end of December very close to these positions.“I think (its) far from a miracle, we just need to not be so unlucky with problems that we have. We need some players to perform better than they are, we need as a team to perform better than we are, but far from a miracle, not at all.”
