Manchester United ace Paul Pogba needs hose to cool down after firing up fitness campaign with trip to boiling Miami

PAUL POGBA is almost firing on all cylinders again after fighting his way back to fitness for Manchester United with a trip to baking hot Miami.
The France midfielder has been out since Sept 12 with a hamstring injury he suffered in the 19th minute on Man United's Champions League clash with Basel.
Jose Mourinho seemed confident after the game that Paul Pogba would be back soon
But Pog looked fit as a fiddle after swapping the north of England for the sun of the USA and even needed a garden hose to cool down.
The United hero was put through his paces by two trainers who monitored every hop, skip and jump.
And the former Juventus man proved he had not piled on any pounds while on the sidelines by whipping off his top to reveal a ripped torso.
United could do with powerhouse back as soon as possible as they play six times in 17 upcoming days, across three different competitions.
And Jose Mourinho seemed to fear the worst after watching his box-to-box man take to crutches.
The Portuguese said: "His injury is not one that I can have the hope like I can have with others.
"With long-term injuries, I don't speak about them, so Ibra, Pogba, Rojo and these players, I don't think about them.
But Pogba's midfield team-mate Nemanja Matic insists United will be fine without him.
Matic said: "We know that he will be out for some time. He's very important for us, a great player, but I am sure he will be ready soon.
"Paul is very important for Manchester United but we also have great players to play instead of him."
