Pogba has frequently tested Mourinho's patience with post-game comments and the club are already eight points behind Liverpool in the Premier League.
Following the 1-1 draw with Wolves on Saturday, the French midfielder lamented that his team didn't "Attack, Attack, Attack" at Old Trafford.
This appeared to be a dig at Jose's often reactionary tactics. And the manager appears to have viewed the comments that way.
Mourinho was reportedly furious and stripped Pogba's of his vice-captaincy ahead of United's EFL Cup defeat to Derby County on Tuesday night.
When Pogba arrived at training on Wednesday morning there was a tense stand-off between the pair.

With Pogba the club's most valuable player, and Mourinho seemingly in the midst of another third-season struggle, you might expect the club to back the player in this dispute.
However, according to Miguel Delaney, writing in The Independent, the United power brokers are backing the manager as he attempts to put Pogba in his place.
According to the report:
Barcelona reportedly submitted a bid for Pogba in the summer, but it wasn't a realistic offer - £45m and Yerry Mina and Andre Gomes.
It's possible they could return with a serious offer in January.
Yet, will Mourinho even still be at United by January if the club fail to reverse their current form?
It looks set to be an eventful few months at Old Trafford.Sport
