(Reuters) - Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho said on Friday he has "no idea" when Paul Pogba will be available after injury but he expects his squad to cope with the French midfielder's absence.

United hope to extend their unbeaten run in the Premier League at Southampton on Saturday but will be without their record signing, who is recovering from a hamstring injury suffered against Basel in the Champions League earlier this month.
