Pogba all smiles amid row with Mourinho as Man United board the train to London

After a week of turmoil within the Manchester United camp, Paul Pogba was all smiles as he and his teammates boarded the train south on Friday afternoon ahead of their clash with West Ham.
Pogba, Marcus Rashford and Co all donned their Man United tracksuits as they arrived at Stockport station and waited for the train to London.
The week has been dominated by news of rifts in the camp and Jose Mourinho arrived to the station in a separate bus from the rest of his squad.
The players were seen waiting at the station ahead of their league match with West Ham on Saturday and will be looking to make things right on the pitch following two disappointing results.
United crashed out of the Carabao Cup on penalties in midweek to Frank Lampard's Derby, just days after being held to a 1-1 draw at home to Wolves.
But the poor results have been overshadowed by a rift in the camp between Mourinho and Pogba, with reports the midfielder wants to leave and has been told he will never captain the side again.
Speaking at his press conference on Friday before the players traveled to London, Mourinho said: 'Manchester United is bigger than anyone and I have to defend that. He's a player like the others, and no player is bigger than the club.'
Mourinho also confirmed he had stripped Pogba of all captaincy duties after many discussions with his coaching staff.
He said: 'I explained in detail to the people that had to know in detail, which is the squad and especially Paul. So Paul and the other players in the squad know in detail the reason why myself and my coaching staff decided to do that.
'I always analyse a player as a player. When a player is captain, I analyse the player by the player and captain perspective. After weeks of analysing and changing opinions with my coaching staff, we made the decision Paul is just a player and not a captain. Decision made.
'I informed the player and the players, and when I was asked before the match on Tuesday I confirmed. Now I confirm and now end of the story.'

Jurgen Klopp storms onto pitch and rages at Liverpool star after Chelsea lows

Jurgen Klopp made a beeline for summer signing Xherdan Shaqiri and gave him some animated feedback on his performance in Liverpool’s defeat to Chelsea on Wednesday evening. The Reds took a second-half lead at Anfield in the Carabao Cup through Daniel Sturridge, but were stung late on by a tap-in from full-back Emerson before Eden Hazard scored an incredible solo goal to put the visitors into the next round. At full-time, Klopp exchanged pleasantries with Maurizio Sarri and the Chelsea bench, but then walked onto the pitch to seek out Shaqiri. The Swiss star had a rather frustrating evening, wasting a number of chances on the break as Chelsea pushed for an equaliser, and Klopp seemed furious with his winger.

Klopp gesticulated and pointed wildly, though did shake hands with Shaqiri – who was listening to his manager intently – to
