Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher react to Paul Pogba's tweet following Jose Mourinho's sacking from Manchester United, which was later deleted
Following Jose Mourinho's sacking as Manchester United manager on Tuesday morning, Paul Pogba posted a cryptic tweet - but then quickly deleted it.
In a photo, the France international playfully stared sideways into the camera, while in the accompanying text he invited his followers to "caption this!" and included the hashtag #heretocreate - the slogan to a marketing campaign by his sponsors, Adidas.
The social post, which also went up on Instagram, may have been scheduled in advance by Pogba's PR team.
Pogba was at an Adidas event in Paris on Monday night where it is though the image was taken.
Sky Sports football pundit Gary Neville was not impressed by the tweet and responded later on Tuesday morning.
The former Manchester United defender tweeted: "" Caption This".... You do one as well!"
