Mourinho finally reveals the major problem he had with Pogba at Man United

- Mourinho has recounted his bitter row with Pogba while at Manchester United

- The pair was involved in incessant run-ins that culminated to Pogba's axing from the squad and captaincy

- Jose Mourinho has now admitted he failed to get the best out of the French midfielder

Former Manchester United boss, Jose Mourinho, has taken time out to reflect on his sour relationship with Paul Pogba in the latter days of his tenure as manager at the club.

Both Pogba and Mourinho were involved in a number of run-ins that saw the French midfielder dropped to the bench.

Mourinho further stripped the former Juventus star the captaincy role at the club before branding him "the virus" in the United squad.

However, months after his sack from the club, the Portuguese tactician has owned up and admitted he failed to get the best out of the midfielder.

Speaking on beIN Sports, Mourinho further suggested he did not have the right chemistry with the Frenchman, acknowledging that he now needs to improve how he manages players he is not in good books with.

"It’s the personality, the way of being, the way of thinking, you have more chemistry, empathy and chemistry," Mourinho told beIN Sports.
"And that’s why some players are phenomenal with one manager and with another not so good. It’s chemistry," he added.

Since his departure, Pogba has been in terrific form, bagging nine goals and seven assists in 15 appearances.

Mourinho was replaced at Old Trafford by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in December on interim capacity.

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Jose Mourinho claimed that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could struggle to succeed at Manchester United if finally being appointed as permanent manager at Old Trafford.

Since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer replaced Jose Mourinho at Manchester United in December 2018, the Red Devils have not lost any game in the Premier League.

United's only defeat so far under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was in the Champions League first leg round of 16 tie against Paris-Saint-Germain in which Pogba got a red card.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
