Shaw and Maguire have always had these brain farts throughout their time with us. They've just decided to continuously have them in every match this season.
This is from last season.
Don’t think he has the mentality to be a top-level player.
I think Mourinho will be enjoying the vindication. Remember when Mourinho was accused of bullying Shaw because he stood pn the line coaching him through a game.
Telles deserves a run in the team until the new year.
There's something to that but I don't think it's a fatal flaw. I guess when you add it to a lack of form it is.Don’t think he has the mentality to be a top-level player.
He looks one player who has downed tools. Seems to have lost interest in playing. Probably still watching replays of his euro performances and jerking of seeing that.
I still have no idea how Shaw did not hear the 'away' shout or look over his shoulder before deciding to let Bernardo Silva in at the back post.
Isn't it basic football, before the ball comes to you, to just have a look around you to see where your teammates and opponents are? Did he just forget? All the awareness of someone who's just taken sleeping tablets.
Was the potential concussion suffered in his first collision? I can’t even remember I’ve blanked the game out of my mind.I don't get why he wasn't subbed immediately. That shit looked nasty

With this, and Rashford coming on for literally no reason despite not training for the past 2 days recovering from the flu… It basically is negligence at this point with player safety
because like literally everything else to do with our club, the medical dept are just blokes who said "well, I dont know but Ill give it a shot, would you like another blowie Joel?" at their interviews. fecking amature hour. Every hour.I don't get why he wasn't subbed immediately. That shit looked nasty
Considering that A: the glazers only give a shit about money, and B: They are from the single most litigious country in all of human history how have they not started shitting themselves about a player potentially suing due to career damage by being played when blatantly not fit and well?It's the consequences of having an amateur managing professionals. It's dangerous. Solskjaers risked the players health multiple times now.
A whole of these instances could be made tbh. Of course players are rarely 100% fit during an entire season, playing with niggles and pains is very common. I just don't get why we flirt with the risky line so often.Was the potential concussion suffered in his first collision? I can’t even remember I’ve blanked the game out of my mind.

First of all it starts with AWB being too narrow and not getting out quick enough to close the cross.
Once the ball comes in. In that instance he should just be acting as a shield for ball to go out or for De Gea to claim the ball. Which he kind of half does but stops at the last second to allow Silva get a touch. I don't blame Shaw for the goal even though he should have put his boot through it once he realised that DDG had retreated to the safety of his line or used his body to just shield it out.
That goal is all on De Gea, shouting away at a ball that drops 3 yards from goal after travelling 30 yards is just truly shocking goalkeeping at any level. That's his area to control, expecting your defender to deal with a ball like that so close to the goal from open play like that goal is a disgrace.

The only thing the break will do for him is he'll gain a stone in weight.Out for England apparently, hopefully the break does him well and he's alright
I don't disagree with you saying DeGea should be more commanding but once the keeper makes a shout you deal with it.
Too often our defending degenerates into someone else should've done it. We're constantly seeing the defenders pointing at each other, as if to say: 'Well I was in my zone.' You have to take responsibility some times, even when its not strictly your responsibility. When the ball is flying towards Shaw, he has to take account of what's happening around him and decide better safe than sorry. If Shaw just attacks the ball Silva doesn't score. Its the same argument we've had so many times with our defence. Like the Europa League semi final etc. There's always numerous errors where someone just doing a bit more instead of waiting would've stopped it. Shaw had the chance to solve the issue caused, perhaps, by other people's failings. He didn't. 2-0. Game over.
This is what it seems like to me. This is his eighth season here and in all that time he's probably only been top class for two years and that is being generous.Don’t think he has the mentality to be a top-level player.
Yep, needs to sit on the bench for a good few games now, we can even use the concussion and knock on the head today as an excuse. He’s horrendously out of form.Worst performance I have ever seen by him and one of the worst I've ever seen from a Utd player. Guy should pack his bags and go on a vacation for a month to some place without great cuisine. Then come back and train for a month before ever playing again.
I'm a fan but he's a calamity like this. I'd rather see Telles and Fred at LB.
The bench? Put him in the stands.Yep, needs to sit on the bench for a good few games now, we can even use the concussion and knock on the head today as an excuse. He’s horrendously out of form.
haha, he needs to be benched to be kind to him, we can’t afford to put all our underperforming players in the stands, there’s plenty I’d put there before him which says a lot.The bench? Put him in the stands.
Telles and Fred are better LBs right now. Donny, Matic and Bruno are capable midfielders. I think in Shaw's case the stands is perfectly fine, unless one of the above is unavailable.haha, he needs to be benched to be kind to him, we can’t afford to put all our underperforming players in the stands, there’s plenty I’d put there before him which says a lot.
Need Fred in midfield mate next to DV.Telles and Fred are better LBs right now. Donny, Matic and Bruno are capable midfielders. I think in Shaw's case the stands is perfectly fine, unless one of the above is unavailable.
Really? I thought that was one of his better games this season. Not that he was good or anything, but at least he was 'average' rather than the absolutely terrible performances he'd been having recently.Worst performance I have ever seen by him and one of the worst I've ever seen from a Utd player.
