Paul Pogba might have overstepped the mark when it came to expressing his delight at being rid of Jose Mourinho.
Mourinho was sacked by Manchester United on Tuesday, bringing an end to his long-running feud with the club's record signing.
The power struggle between Pogba and his manager had been one of the themes of the Red Devils' tough start to the season and the Frenchman appears to have won out as United lost patience with Mourinho and parted ways with him after Sunday's 3-1 defeat to arch-rivals Liverpool.
Early rumblings claimed that Pogba celebrated Mourinho's sacking by
high-fiving his teammates but the latest reports suggest that the 25-year-old went much further than that.
The Sun report that, after discovering that he had played his last game under Mourinho, Pogba shouted: "He thought he could make a fool of me and turn the fans against me. He f***ed with the wrong baller."
Michael Carrick, who remains at Old Trafford as part of caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's coaching staff, reportedly brought an end to the celebrations and was forced to intervene to remind Pogba that no one individual is bigger than the club.
Carrick retired from playing at the end of last season and was handed a coaching role by Mourinho so it's no surprise that the former England midfielder came to the defence of the Portuguese amid Pogba's revelry.
Pogba also came in for criticism from club legend Gary Neville for a social media post which appeared moments after Mourinho was sacked but sponsor
adidas have since confirmed that it was a pre-scheduled tweet and Instagram post rather than a dig at the departing manager.
