That's because Memphis can do more than Young. He uses Shaw well enough, but more often than not, he uses him by not using him. Shaw is often the decoy run to open up space for him. At the end of the day, that's what you want to see. We expect Memphis to carry the fight down the left, not to constantly defer to the defender behind him.

He played an absolutely terrible pass after which he had to get back in order to stop their counter. Credit to him for actually getting all the way over to the opposite side to launch a counter of our own though.
Very good again. Defended well considering he got very little cover from Depay.
He does run really funny.

Rapid leg movement.
He is definitely more rapid than I expected him to be. Showing just why we splashed the cash on him, last season was just an anomaly.
It's also that this was a more open game. When Memphis was at PSV their LB (Willems) was fantastic and productive going forward, so I don't think Shaw will have a problem when they get used to playing together and in games where Shaw can get forward because the other team is defending deep or narrow.
That was my favourite thing about that move. Often the best attacking moments come when a player knows they've fecked up and their hackles are up.
Love the way he runs with the ball, perfect mix of pace, power and control.
Starting to look like the real deal.
Looking awfully fast. Think he lost about 5-7 kg from last year. Defended well. Good action most of the time.
IF we keep De Gea our back five in this form with the addition of another class CB world probably the best in Europe defensively.
Ironic that the best cross from our attacking right back was actually from Shaw when he stormed down the right side of the pitch.
Our attacking play from the right wing and fullback is dire.

Except, y'know, all three of our goals.
Memphis runs in from the right, scores. Cuts inside from the right, shoots, scores. Crosses brilliantly from the right, Fellaini scores.
Didnt he do all that from his left wing position?Except, y'know, all three of our goals.

Were you watching the match in Hebrew?
Its that curious case of Bojan again.
lol - giving him the benefit of the doubt and was probably watching it in the mirror

Teaches you to think before you reply huh?
Left and right, people can easily make a mistake.
Maybe Brightonian wasn't at school that day.

and people complained about his price and this is just the start, he will be much better than this. Agree with someone who said he's not like Bale, he's defender in the first place but freakingly beasty. That left hand side will be amazing in the years coming

Getting left and right mixed up. Not a strong day for me.

Man Utd 0:0 Newcastle
He is going to be best in the world LB one day.
His final ball neers to improve, otherwise great again. I feel so assured with him at the back.
Still needs to sharpen up his anticipation when an attacking player comes at him with the ball. Darmian is much, much better at that. Newcastle seemed to be able to shift the ball to either side of him a few times and get the ball into the box, where as very few balls come in from our right hand side.
But in terms of recovering the ball at pace, winning it back and getting us moving forwards again, I think he's already one of the best in the league at that. Doesn't get done for pace, and always seems to manage to get a clean tackle in when it looks impossible.

I really like Shaw, but his final ball is so frustrating. Is it me or does every one of his crosses into the box just hit the first defender?
Both him and Darmian need to improve their final ball but I thought he as class again defensively, the LB equivalent of Smalling.
