Jose Mourinho\u2019s threat to drop Paul Pogba from his Manchester United side has been welcomed by Gary Neville, with the \u00a389 million midfielder considered to be \u201cplaying at walking pace\u201d.<\/p>\n

The France international appeared to have overcome his recent struggles when producing an inspirational two-goal showing in a derby date with Manchester City.<\/p>\n

He was, however, frustratingly anonymous during Sunday’s 1-0 defeat to West Brom last time out to once again highlight the inconsistencies in his game which continue to attract criticism.<\/p>\n

Mourinho has suggested that he is ready to bench underperforming stars in a midweek Premier League clash with Bournemouth and an FA Cup semi-final date with Tottenham, and Neville believes he would be right to remove the likes of Pogba and Alexis Sanchez from his plans.<\/p>\n

Having backed those proposals in a series of posts on social media, the former United defender said on supposed star turns who are not pulling their weight: \u201cYou watched them recently!<\/p>\n

\u201cIf they play hope they play well but you couldn\u2019t argue against Rashford, Martial, Mata, Lingard etc in front of them!\u201d<\/p>\n

Neville added on Pogba after having it pointed out that he has previously branded United \u201ca better side\u201d with the Frenchman in it: \u201cYes but enough is enough!<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s playing at walking pace! He can do so much more…\u201d<\/p>\n

United face Bournemouth in league action on Wednesday, with the Red Devils looking to take advantage of a game in hand on arch-rivals Liverpool and cement a second-place standing.<\/p>\n

They will then head to Wembley Stadium on Saturday hoping to dash the FA Cup dreams of Tottenham in what has been their temporary home this season.<\/p>\n

It remains to be seen if Pogba and Sanchez will play any part in those contests, be that from the start or stepping off the bench.<\/p>\n

Both have spent time among the substitutes of late, with Mourinho having already shown that he is not afraid to make big calls and risk bruising the ego of supposed superstars.<\/p>\n

He told reporters when issuing his latest threat: \u201cRotating is not the right word. If I play a player against Bournemouth and the player is phenomenal, he plays the semi-final.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo it\u2019s not rotating because rotating looks like a player that plays against Bournemouth is to give a rest to somebody that is going to play against Spurs in the semi-final.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo the word is not rotation, the word is an opportunity for some people to play and to try to get a place in the team for Spurs. And some of the guys that played on Sunday, they don\u2019t have a place in that team.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Portuguese added: \u201cWhat is the criteria for a manager to choose a team? I only know one criteria, it\u2019s the way you play. That\u2019s the only way I can select players.<\/p>\n

\u201cOr do you want me to go for the price they cost? Or their salary? Or their beautiful face? The only way is to go with performance.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
