It's deliberate. We all know why Sane's out, for example. Raheem Sterling was talking about it yesterday and Guardiola keeps talking about his players needing more protection. I'm sure he did something similar at Barca. Can't go near their players without it being a foul.
Pogba was ****ing awful against us. His main problem, as Murphy pointed out, was lack of discipline. He kept getting dragged out of position and left Matic isolated. Now unless that’s something Mourinho had instructed him to do...?
