Pogba deletes cryptic tweet after Mourinho sacking as Neville tells him to get out of Man Utd

Paul Pogba has deleted an ill-timed social media post that was shared with his followers less than an hour after Jose Mourinho's sacking as Manchester United manager.

The France international removed the posts - that asked users to caption an image of Pogba with a wry smile - soon after he initially posted them.

That didn't stop Gary Neville getting involved, however, with the former Manchester United right-back, seemingly reacting to Pogba's tweet, writing on his own social media account: "'Caption this'... you do one as well!"

Mourinho's departure as United boss was confirmed just before 10am on Tuesday morning, with the Red Devils having made a dismal start to the 2018-19 campaign.
