Jose Mourinho Heaps Praise on Man Utd Trio Following Comfortable 3-0 Win Over Young Boys

Jose Mourinho's Manchester United began their UEFA Champions League campaign with a dream result, beating Young Boys 0-3 in Switzerland on Wednesday night.

Two goals from Paul Pogba and a deft finish from Anthony Martial sealed what was in the end a comfortable win against the Swiss champions.

After the match, the United boss was in a cheerful mood during post-match interview, heaping praise on his victorious players. Mourinho was particularly complimentary towards captain for the night Paul Pogba, who put in one of his best performances in a United shirt.

“I don’t think he can score goals every match,” the United manager said of Pogba (via the Independent), before comparing the World Cup winner's first to a moment from Saturday’s 2-1 win at Watford.
