there will be a lot of focus on paul pogba, coming up a lot of focus on paul pogba, coming up againstifferent is heat of the play you bought two years ago and have he developed and matured in the way you hoped? i don't like this press conference. i don't want to speak about pogba or any individuals. i don't want to speak about the spanish because they are uninterested in real madrid and ronaldo. i learned to play against one of the big clubs in the world, one of the big clubs in the world, one of the biggest candidates of winning the competition. that is what motivates me and brings me here. manchester united's last european defeat at old trafford came backin european defeat at old trafford came back in march 2013, and lacklustre real madrid. the winning goal—scorer was ronaldo, withjose mourinho in charge of real madrid that night. juventus, on the other hand, haven't lost a n juventus, on the other hand, haven't lost an away match in any competition since november last year, so it should be a cracking match here under the lights. 8pm kick tomorrow night. juventus are top of that cha

today many questions were put to jose mourinho about ronaldo, about his own player paul pogba and severale was content to focus on the match itself. several others but he was content to focus on the match itselflj several others but he was content to focus on the match itself. i do not wa nt to focus on the match itself. i do not want to speak about paul pogba or about individuals, i do not want to speak to the spanish journalists because they are only interested in renaldo and real madrid. now i'm going to play against one of the wea kest clu bs going to play against one of the weakest clubs in the world, one of the biggest candidates of winning the biggest candidates of winning the competition. that is what motivates me, that is what brings me here. manchester united have not lost at home in european competitions since march 2013 when they were beaten by real madrid and on that occasion they were managed byjose mourinho, with the winning goal—scorer of course mr —— renaldo. but in the event as they face stiff opposition, they have now won the italian title seven times. 100% start to the

finally, united awoke and it was their own marquee name paul pogba who came within inches of showinghy united paid a then world record fee to sign him from juve two years ago. that, however, was as good as it would get forjose mourinho‘s men, another setback in a troubled season, a night forjuventus and ronaldo to savour. united have enjoyed so many glorious european games at old trafford over the years and this was not one of them but they are still in a tron position to qualify from the champions league group. manchester city in contrast enjoyed a far better evening winning 3—2 at shaktar donetsk in the ukraine saw at least one half of the city is happy tonight. thank you. newsnight‘s about to begin over on bbc two. here on bbc one, time for the news where you are. hello and welcome to sportsday. your main headlines this evening. it was all about ronaldo pre—match, but paolo dybala was the matchwinner asjuventus beat manchester united. a better night, though, for the blue half of manchester, as city ease to a 3—0 win at shakhtar donetsk. england's series with sri lanka ends with a

pogba this time got lucky.deliberate. the weight on this pass allowed anthony martial to do this. the striker‘s future at united in the balance at the moment, but this is the kind of quality they cannot afford to lose. pogba's influence on the scoreline was not over just yet. with his team 2—0 up, he tried another spectacle in midfield. he gave away possession then chris smalling gave away a penalty. gylfi sigurdsson‘s conversion would make the ending less comfortable, and though united threw away points late on last week, this time they had done enough. their season still has its flaws, but for the time being, there is progress. joe lynskey, bbc news. chelsea are still unbeaten this season. they put four past burnley at turf moor. they won 4—0. the goals came from alvaro morata, ross barkley, wilian and ruben loftus cheek. after his hat—trick in midweek. all this without their star player eden hazard, who is injured. chelsea are up to second in the table for now with manchester city playing tomorrow night at s

particularly a lot made about his relationship with paul pogba who was captain because valencia was outtain again. these are the stats from the season, we will get onto those in a minute. what have you been making of this very public fallout? it is not really the way to do things is it, play out your dirty washing in public? no, it is not and it seems to have been done with games really. no one is saying definitively what is on. pogba is saying that he cannot speak and some are saying that the spat on the training ground was miscommunication on social media. it is looking very messy and i think these things should be dealt with behind closed doors first and foremost. you know that when the cameras are there so keep these things in house. did you have things going on like this are united when you with there? social media was not as big but things went on and it got nipped in the bud early. there is so much cameras and social media and attention now about small things can escalate. these may just be small things that have escalated but the problem is there are too many small things and th

paul pogba scored the opener.dan pickford but he scored the rebound. midfielder gylfi sigurdsson converted a penalty with 12 minutes remaining, but united held on to their advantage. when we get six minutes extra time, it was testing my heart because i'm used to when i'm losing to have two oi’ used to when i'm losing to have two or three minutes and then goodbye and when i'm winning, it's always difficult but emotion for the game, for the last corner, good football match, good football match. obviously very happy with the points. i think we deserve a little more than the result we achieved. balanced match. some moments, old trafford is also —— always really difficult against a strong side. until the moment they scored the first goal penalty. the teams at old trafford were watched by some very special guests, the 12 children who were rescued from flooded caves in thailand this year were in the stadium having met united manager jose mourinho on saturday. the result means united move up to eighth in the table — a lon

finally, united awoke from their slump and paul pogba, their own star name, hit the post almost drawingere. it was not to be for united, in the end who were co mforta ble for united, in the end who were comfortable and perhaps could have had more as well. so it is a night that you know to reflect on, another disappointing result and what has been a troubled season. they were co mforta ble been a troubled season. they were comfortable and perhaps could have had more as well. so it is a night that you know to reflect on, another disappointing result and what has been a troubled season. then look to pick up again this weekend but they are still in a strong position in this champions league group. but not forjuventus and especially kristin a ronaldo to remember. there arejp for there are jp for seven years, you know? six, seven years in a row. two champions league finals in the last four or five years. i am not happy with —— there are not be what they have. they want more. they want more, they had dybala, they want more, they had dybala, they want more, they had dybala, they want more, they

jose mourinho has not been afraid to criticise his players, not least world cup winner paul pogba, ae perhaps to ease the tension slipping by after the restart as united tried desperately to break the deadlock. the old trafford faithful somehow trying to keep the faith. with time running out, marcus rashford came close to a spectacular last—gasp winner but valencia held on for the draw. with boos echoing around old trafford, a point scant consolation for a united side whose dismal run of form shows little sign of ending. champions league nights here used to be electric and instead this evening you could sense the tension, the fear, the frustration with another lacklustre display. jose mourinho was brought here by united to bring stability and success, instead in his third season it has been overshadowed by a fracturing of the relationship between him and some of his players and tonight's point will mean more pressure on them, the united hierarchy and of course on their beleaguered manager and liz at their beleaguered manager and liz at the weekend against newcastle in the league and

we all saw the paul pogba situation, anthony martial, they've all had criticism.n too hard on his players and he needs too hard on his players and he needs to lay off of it and let them express themselves. they are not able to do that. finally, do you think the man united fans think that mourinho can turn this around or is it only going one way? by now there's a split. it's probably roughly 50—50, a lot of the fans wa nt to roughly 50—50, a lot of the fans want to give him time, he's at the top record in the past, his one big trophies at chelsea and real madrid but he's never really got any of his previous teams out of the messi got them. he could not do that at chelsea. i do wonder whether mourinho is in a position where he can't retrieve them and as a matter of time before he goes. he will limp on in the perhaps but i don't see mourinho being the long—term solution for man united, so i think he will go, maybe maybe in the summer. he will go, maybe maybe in the summer. thank you for your time on the eve of a crucial champions league game, just united. then at the
