Romelu Lukaku and Paul
Pogba were involved in a 'dramatic bust-up' after Manchester United's
win against Southampton over the Frenchman's missed penalty late in the game.
Pogba, the team's usual
taker, insisted on stepping up even though Lukaku had scored a brace and wanted
to complete his hat-trick.
According to The Sun, Lukaku was angered as he felt he
had supported Pogba during his dispute with former boss Jose Mourinho and
would have ceded responsibility if the roles were reversed.
United caretaker manager
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was forced to intervene between the close friends in the
dressing room afterwards and calm them down.
Having fallen behind to
Yan Valery's early goal, Andreas Pereira struck a stunning leveller before
Lukaku scored his first only for James Ward-Prowse to have seemingly earned his
side a draw.
Lukaku then grabbed the
vital winner with just two minutes remaining, before yet more late drama
ensued.
A United source told The Sun:
'It was quite a stern conversation and Romelu was clearly not happy about what
Pogba had done.
