The player thanked his former manager for helping the club win trophies when he was in-charge.
It can be recalled that Manchester United sacked Mourinho after two-and-a-half years as manager.
There have been reports of Pogba having feud with Mourinho when he was manager of Manchester United.
Pogba has now spoken after the manager was sacked.
In his words;
“I know you’re waiting for something about Jose, about the result today,” Pogba told newsmen.
“Obviously, we are very happy with the result. We played well, the performance of the team was great and I know you want to ask me; ‘But oh yeah, with Jose…’
“With Jose, we won trophies and I want to thank him for that. Not everything worked well, but [some] things went well, we won trophies.
“Winning trophies makes you improve as a person as well and that’s it. That’s the past. I want to thank him for that.
“I’m sure all the players are now looking to the next game, the points,… and we want to go back to the top of the league. That’s all I want to say.
“The performance of the team was great. We are happy the first game with the manager starts like this and the important thing now is to carry on like that.
“We cannot play like this and score five goals and then lose [the next match]. That’s it.”
