Paul Merson says the behaviour of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba indicates Manchester United are not a team, and is sceptical they will even qualify for the Champions League.Is Rashford the future for both Man Utd and England?The Old Trafford side reinforced heavily in the summer in order to get back in contention for silverware, with Pogba returning to the club for a world-record fee.However, Jose Mourinho’s men have flattered to deceive this season, the Portuguese picking up fewer points in seven Premier League games than his predecessor Louis van Gaal.And former England winger Merson feels there is a division between United’s mega signings and the rest of the squad while claiming Mourinho is unsatisfied with the quality of his players.
