Could be either. Delaney cause he may not have concrete information and if he is right then Mourinho because he should've sorted his team out long before tonight. I'm thinking it's just mind games to keep Sevilla guessing.

The most valuable asset at the club by some way is on the bench to make way for (essentially) a youth player in the season's biggest game. A game he should be playing in if only 70% fit.
Redcafe - "Nothing to see here"
Everything is fecked. Everything and this is the manager being a tit. I give it 3 hours before 90% of people here agree.
I don't think Delaney knows if Jose is still deciding on the team.If Pogba's not ill I'm p..... off. It's feels like handicapping ourselves unnecessarily.
No player is bigger than the club.
No one's saying he is. But he's more valuable than the manager.
Pogba better look ill or I won't need 3 hours.
Not sure about the 70% fit part. We saw a not fully fit Pogba at Newcastle...Hope you know what you're doing, Jose.
Yes, he's been a manager for ages, and he obviously knows how to deal with his team, but he's fallen out with big personalities before and it hasn't benefited him or the team.
Yeah but what about the game?Red Cafe hates Miguel Delaney! lol ( A Lot)
This reminds me of that Blackburn game that lead to Pogba leaving the first time round!Just wait 15 more minutes, then you change a tune dependable of the real line up.That midfield is awful.
This is a player who was walking around the pitch against Newcastle the other week like he was having a fecking kickabout; how can you be defending him so vehemently?
Mourinho could do more to get the best out of Pogba in terms of tactical set-up and instructions, but the foundation of any player fulfilling their potential is hard work. Pogba needs to have a seriously look in the mirror in that regard.
Jose at least does a good job of filtering out players who don’t have the mentality required to fit his squad, squads that traditionally have been very successful may I remind you. Pogba is being tested like many before him and unfortunately, he’s not exactly providing a great deal of confidence with his response.
He’s a supremely talented player but feck me, he could turn up pissed to games and score two own goals every week and some would still defend him and put all the blame on the manager.And so Pogba is fit enough to be on the benchMeltdownMeh. I just hope it's the fact that Pogba really isn't fit/well.
IF he's genuinely droppped Pogba we are gonna regret it IMO.
Do you think any manager worth their salt would bench Pogba under normal circumstances?
Either Pogba is not fully fit, or he has crossed a line in the dressing room that puts into question his mentality.
What if Pogba goes AWOL in the game and the game goes to pot. You need players working for each other on the pitch, not someone that is going to do whatever he wants. Picking Scott Mctominay over Pogba is a very intelligent decision if true; because he is an academy player who hasn't had smoke blown up his arse and told that he should be the main man at Manchester United. He will care about the instructions on the pitch, not playing his own game.Jose clearly doesnt rate Sevilla
Oh my dayzLingard and Martial on the bench too. I think those two and Pogba will all start the return leg.No Shaw?"She canee take the strain capt'n" incoming...No Martial either, and Young still starting. We should be good enough to get somethingDarmian suddenly on the benchHe's worked out that our good teams on paper play shit, so he's started to draw teams out of a hat.Lindelof and Smalling isn't a good pairing. Don't think they complement each other well enough.If we lose.
We have to just accept that Mourinho prefers Young over Shaw"Sanchez, feed the ball to Lukaku. Everybody else, defend for your lives."No Martial ffs.If we lose.
"Can't take the strain"That line up! Are we playing Huddersfield?Martial, Rashford, Pogba all on bench. Hmmmm.
Let us hope we are still in the mood to post green smilies after the match.Jose clearly doesnt rate Sevilla
