Didier Deschamps 'Not Worried' About Paul Pogba's Manchester United Form

France manager Didier Deschamps has said he has no concerns about Paul Pogba's form at Manchester United or his relationship with Red Devils coach Jose Mourinho.

Pogba has been at the centre of scrutiny this season, with United recording no victories in their last four in all competitions and sitting in a disappointing 10th place in the Premier League.

World Cup winners France have a friendly against Iceland and a UEFA Nations League meeting with Germany coming up in the October international break, and the national team boss played down the recent drama surrounding his midfielder at Old Trafford.

Per Jamie Smith of Goal, Deschamps said on Thursday:

"I'm not worried at all and I'm not Jose Mourinho. I do not want to interfere in their affairs, everything is clear with Paul, you have to balance things out. The setting is different when they find themselves in the French team."

Pogba was central to France's success at Russia 2018, but his performances at United have suffered under Mourinho's tactics.

The Paris-born superstar has been widely criticised after failing to produce his best since re-joining United from Juventus for a world-record fee two years ago.

Pogba has been continuously linked with a switch to Barcelona in recent weeks, with his relationship with Mourinho reportedly in tatters.

The player recently criticised his team for a lack of attacking endeavour, and his comments appear to have caused a division at the Theatre of Dreams.

Per Richard Jolly of the Guardian, after United's 1-1 draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers, Pogba said:

"We should play much better against Wolves. When we are at home we should attack, attack, attack. That’s Old Trafford. We are here to attack. I think teams are scared when they see Man United attacking and attacking. That was our mistake today. We’ve had three games at home and we’ve got only four points. It’s not enough."

Pogba's escalating situation has already engulfed United's season, and the adverse effect has been clear in recent results.

However, the 25-year-old was productive in the team's goalless draw against Valencia in the UEFA Champions League, but United failed to hit the back of the net.

Mourinho has stripped Pogba of the vice-captaincy. However, it was the Frenchman who was the leader on the pitch as he communicated with animation to his team-mates throughout the game.

Pogba's long-term future at Old Trafford remains in doubt, but if United do not find a way to create harmony in the squad, either Mourinho or Pogba will have to vacate the club in the coming months.
