Pogba was great when he was signed, but how could anyone have thought Pogba under Mourinho would go well? It had disaster written all over it.

Theres always an element of luck, but its also shrewd knowledge of the players and how they'll fit into the manager's system.
Thats the thing, why buy these players for Mourinho when hes going to stifle them and effectively drive their value into the ground?
