Like esters said, so funny that he insisted on a 1 year contract at Forest and is now completely unwanted by everyone.
That he, Pogba and Rashford are best mates speaks volumes.

It does indeed. Birds of a feather and all that; they’re children.
Without digging up the whole Ole v Mourinho v van Gaal thing, I heard interviews Solskjaer gave even before taking a match as manager, then early in his tenure, and knew he was writing his own suicide letter. If he genuinely thought we should build the team around Pogba, and that Rashford, Lingard and Martial would get us back to the top if he showed enough faith in them explains why he failed miserably and hasn’t worked since.
I heard Redknapp do an interview on Talksport, talking about Dele Alli, along the lines of “ahhhhh, aw ‘ee needs is an arrrrrm around the shouldah…” type %@#$&!s.
Next thing you know, Lampard has lifted him for Everton, Alli shows up first day in a pink Roller and gold suit, plays half a dozen games and is on the the next plane to Turkey. Rednapp goes back on Talksport and goes “I don’t know whats-a-matter wiv that boy…”
They just don’t get it.

In fairness it’s probably because, mentally, he was/is.

If Mourinho had inherited Pogba then fine, but he wanted him and got him. Mourinho’s problem was that he imagined he could bring in players like Pogba, Bailly, Mikataryan and Lukaku, then deny any responsibility for them being shit. Nothing was ever that @#%&!’s fault.
